{More Decor}

I bought this Owl/Pumpkin set (he' stuck to the pumpkin) earlier this year at a going out of business sale, he was retail $26.00 I took him home for $6.50. The urn is from Wally world which is going to be re-purposed into a topiary when the Christmas holiday rolls around and the ribbon is from the Dollar Tree.
My kids like that he lights up.... Me, not so much I'm not about the fiber optics.

And these I just hung from my buffet lamps in my dining room. I got them at the same store for $1.25 each, I just ♥ a 75% discount... I am sad that the store in no longer here but I do thank them for the bargains. :)

I am also working on a Halloween house, that was "supposed" to be a bird house. But I have to wait for my hubby to get home as he has the jigsaw in his truck. I hope it turns out cute! And of course I will post it when it's done!

    I love, love, LOVE your owl~ he looks so cute perched on top of your pumpkin! The lit-up eyes are a "hoot"! (Sorry~ I just couldn't help myself there!) I also love the mini tassels, and the ribbon and urn. You found great deals on all of those. :)

    I love the little dangling things! I love the price even more! I have never seen anything like that. Cute cute cute!
    My mom found a fiber optic halloween tree at the thrift store for a $1-she was so escited! It wasn't until we got home and replaced the batteries that we realized it made noise as well! The kids loved it! So glad that doesn't live at my house! I would chuck it before the day was over! I am so bad!

    Love the danglies you hung from the buffet lights! ADORABLE! I'm glad you liked my hats! They were so much fun to make and you could easily turn them into something fun for Halloween. We'll be doing a Halloween themed party next - nothing too spooky though - next so I'll keep you updated if I come up with anything fab! Happy 1st birthday planning. We had a blast! I'll be posting pics Monday. Woohoo!
