Fall Decorations

Oranges and yellows! Candy corn, sunflowers, acorns, cornucopia, turkeys, pilgrams, I love fall decor!!!!! This year I tried to do a few different decorations especially since we have changed the furniture around. Everything was pretty simple.

Glitter Pumpkins Over Black Eyed Peas:

First off this was probably the easiest craft that I have ever done! I took black-eyed-peas and put them in a glass square vase and then I placed glitter pumpkins on top. It's simple, I really like it and it was very cheap, which my families budget liked.

Candy Corn Vase:

I did this the once but then had to redo it because I didn't like it at the level that it was at. So then I decided to put something in my vase that would fill the center of the it. I grabbed a toilet paper roll and then put scott tape on both of the ends, but I am sure that one end would work. Next, I hot glued the toilet paper roll to the vase. 

I used yellow popcorn kernels, then I dyed star noodles orange and navy beans you could use what ever you want. Of course I was going for the candy corn look.

There you have it!  

Love God…. Love People!!!! Operation Christmas Child

God is so good! I am so thankful to know him in such a marvelous way and that I can talk to him whenever I want to.  God's greatest commandment is to love God with all your heart, all you mind and all your strength.  The runner up commandment is love your neighbor as yourself.

I am so excited to participate in Operation Christmas Child this year as it is every year. It is such a joy to fill those boxes and pray over the child God has already picked for your box!

Here are some links that help our family pack our boxes!
