Fall Festival week 2

by

GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!

Can you believe we’re already in the second week of September?  And there’s no telling how many Pumpkin Spice Lattes, I’ve already had.  Let’s just say, any opportunity I find to put something Fall-ish in my mouth, I take it.

Pumpkin lovers unite!!!  Whether it’s with food or decor.  😉

That’s one of the many reasons, why I started the Fall Festival, it’s simply the best time of year.  Anything goes for the link party.  Just link up anything related to Fall – food, decor, photography, printables, DIY you name it, link it.

I couldn’t help myself………..I just had to start decorating a little for Halloween.  So far this is all that I’ve done~

I decided I would work on our entry way first, then move on to the rest of the house.
I used some of the vintage images that I posted about earlier this week in the 2 oval frames.  Here they are below:
And with the help of Martha, I decorated the mirror.  It’s simple, but fun.  Most importantly my kids think it’s awesome.  😉 
Now, on to the fabulous giveaway for this week –
Pink Ink Paper has an amazing store on etsy.  Her work is simply amazing.
Here are a few incredible examples ~
Aren’t they all breathtaking?
Pink Ink Paper is giving away one return address stamp to one lucky winner.  Any 3 x 1.5 inch stamp, with or without a wood handle, and in ANY font style is up for grabs. 
I know, aren’t you dying???  Gorgeous stuff – right?

  12. I just wrote a NOVEL from my initial excitement after reading your tweet- but my silly phone didn’t show it posted!! I CANNOT RISK not entering! I have wanted one of these from the very beginning of my wedding planning process as our return address label since my penmanship is lacking! I love the personal touch it adds! I have hinted several times to bridesmaids/family/friends/coworkers that Id lovvvvethis as an early wedding gift- to no avail- here’s to my luck in winning one instead!!!!

  22. I love the prints in you foyer. You choose a good spot for them. And yes I love Fall too, I think it is my favorite season.
    I tried the pumpkin spice latte for the first time last year when I was in NY with my sisters. I had high hopes, but I it was a bit too sweet for my taste. But I still love that name, it sounds like yummy Fall.

  23. Love your halloween hall way. The bird in the cage is great.
    Pink Inks stamps are amazing. so much more impressive than the standard shop-bought number!

  29. Oh, those stamps are gorgeous!

    And one of these weeks in September I’m actually going to participate in the link-up…. If only there were more time in the day to get my fall projects done!

  31. Hi. I linked up my fall leaf jar and somehow clicked the wrong auto fill text for the link name. It should say fall jar not buffalo chicken dip! Sorry!! Could you please change it?

  33. CAn’t wait to check out these awesome fall ideas! Oh, and I could totally use a return address stamp and these are GORGEOUS! What a great gift they would make, too… may have to do a little holiday shopping early. 🙂
