This weeks new design

This is this weeks new design. I love that you can put your monogram in the top center. I chose an antique looking font that I think goes perfectly with the frame. What do you think?

Fall decorating Complete...almost

I spent a few hours on Sunday casually puttering around the house putting up my fall decorations. I still have more to do. I have two LARGE rust colored mums that need to be planted and more little touches to add but this is a pretty good start.

This pretty wreath is from Home Goods (love that store!). Yes, I know that I could have made it myself but would I? Probably not, so I bought it.These ceramic pumpkins and leaf dish are also from Home Goods. Don't tell Little Boy that the Fruity Snacks are hidden in the large one. Like my painted countertop?

I put these cute little pumpkins in a basket that has been sitting in my back room waiting for a use. I added some leaves and feathers. I think it looks so nice on my burlap runner from coastline.You can't see them in this pic but the bottom of this vase (thanks again, Tyra) is filled with little acorns from our yard. This guy (girl?) is so cute standing by the back door. Sorry about the pic, my new chandelier throws some bizarre shadows.

Of course, we had to have a little bit of Halloween too.

I will probably keep adding little touches until the day after Thanksgiving when I take it all down and put up the Christmas decorations :)

New Monogram Design

Just a quick post to show you a new monogram design. Of course, it's available in all 42 matte colors and all 26 letters. I think it would be so great above a desk or a bed. Or just what about on a front door?

New Traditions

Being from Central New York we, like every one who lives there, had a favorite fall tradition, Apple Picking! It's one of the things I miss most about my home town.

This weekend we found the NC Coast's alternative, Grape Picking! We enjoyed a nice country drive to Bannerman Vineyard.

We had a great time. The boys were throwing grapes in the air and catching them, or were trying to catch them, in their mouths.

Little Boy ran up and down the paths so many times, he passed out within five minutes of getting back in the van :)

We ate and picked SO many grapes and they are so delicious!

I think we have found a new fall tradition!

Autumn Decorating

I am not a huge fan of Halloween decorating (not sure why) but I love to decorate for autumn. It is still pretty warm here but the leaves are starting to turn. I miss CNY this time of year and the gorgeous colors.

Our plan for this weekend is getting out the fall decorations (and hopefully putting away the Easter tote while we are at it!)

Here are a few pic from bhg.com to get you in the fall decorating mood too!


We probably won't go as far as the first pic but we may add a few of these small nice touches.

New Tree Decals

I had some time today to work on new designs. My plan is to introduce at least one new design a week, so stay tuned for that.

I love these little trees. They are so whimsical and fun. They match Pottery Barns Brooke bedding too!



They can be ordered in any size, separately or together. Aren't they sweet?!

Winner!

We had such a great time at the Maternity and Baby Expo on Saturday. It's so fun to chat with people and see how excited they get about wall decals! People really seem to love our selection of designs and how many color options we offer.

We had a drawing for a $25 gift certificate to our Etsy store and the winner is Wylana Lee! Congratulations, Wylana!

Cape Fear Maternity & Baby Expo

We are so excited to be exhibitors in this years Cape Fear Maternity & Baby Expo! It's this Saturday from 9 am to 4 pm at the Coastline Convention Center in Historic Downtown Wilmington, NC.

If you are in the Wilmington area and are expecting a baby or have young children, it's the place to be this Saturday. Stop by and visit our booth, we would love to see you there :)

Rain Drops Keep Falling....

It's been raining HARD here all day long! I haven't seen the roads and yards flooded like this since Tropical Storm Tammy came through.

We may have to take the kids to school tomorrow in the canoe :)


Luckily, our home is higher up than this one! It looks like the water is right up to the front door!


Here's my poor garden! I won't be relaxing out there today!


I really don't mind rainy days. We get so few of them that it's kinda nice when you can stay in all day and play board games with the kiddos. Of course, it will be great if the sun doesn't stay away too long.

I hope that you had a wonderful Labor Day!
