New Looks
Thursday, October 14, 2010
Fall is here and I have done a little decorating. But, my favorite thing I did this year was invest in some very cheap candles and a "candle ring" for Fall.
The mercury glasses here I got at Michaels for $2 each! They are being sold in PB catalogs and Ballard Design for $5-10 each. I just filled them with red tea lights and they smell like cinnamon...yum. The middle candle I do not light as I am not sure how the gold would do, but I love that I can keep it for Christmas too and just change out that ring around the candle with the pumpkins on it. I am sure I will find one that is Christmas-themed when the time comes. All this cost me $8. 
I also bought a bench for our laundry room. I love that we can come in and put our bags on it and it won't interfere with our clothes that are possibly hanging to dry. When we have little ones, all their backpacks etc. can go here well out of the way (and out of sight)!
That is just a little bit of what is new around here. What is new in your home?

I have nothing new in my home, but I've been meaning to get some more fall decorations. I try to wait until after the season and then buy it on Sale. So as soon as Christmas takes over the store I can stock up for next year!
You always have the greatest additions to your home, and I love seeing them!! Keep em coming! I have a post coming up about some changes in our home too!!
Great tip re: the mercury glasses!! Thanks for that. PB and Ballard are my FAVORITES and it's always nice to save some money!
I just found your blog, and I'm so excited I did!! You and I seem to have a lot in common. Looking forward to following! :)
Love that little bench! I need something like that for our entry way, so we can sit and take shoes off, etc.
I love your new bench! It will be nice to have for putting on your shoes or dropping your purse on the way in. Plus it just looks cute too! :)
I love that centerpiece! Is that just one candle ring, or is it a 2 or 3? I was trying to figure out how you put it together, but I couldn't tell in the photo. It looks great though!
