Yup I'm having some complete blog guilt at the moment. I have been so busy canning these past few weeks that I feel know my blog has been neglected. So to help spread some Halloween cheer and possibly keep at least a couple of you coming back I'm giving away one of my Halloween Peony Hats! Just leave me a comment & tell me I'm not crazy for wanting to put all my Fall decor up already.
i dont blame you one bit. fall and halloween are my absolute FAVORITE holiday/time of year! i love this hat! please enter me into this give away!!! PLEASE!
ReplyDeleteI say once school starts it's all fair game. Love the hat!!

ReplyDeleteI've been busy and neglectful too...and you're not crazy! I opened a closet the other day and saw the Christmas decorations. I am so excited to celebrate with Ty this year, I thought, "Maybe I should pull the stuff out a little early this year...." :)
ReplyDeleteIt is your blog, in fact, that actually started getting me excited for fall, so good job!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to put up my fall decorations as well. Some are already finding their way into my house, which I love how thay change the mood and add warmth. I say go for it!! I love your blog, I think you have great ideas.
ReplyDeleteSo you think you can appease us for your absence by a giveaway??? ok, you are right; that's adorable!!! :)
ReplyDeletesuzanne

ReplyDeleteI've been itchin' to get out my fall wreath for weeks.... go for it!! Love the hat.
ReplyDeleteamandacrookston[at]cox[dot]net
CRAZY!? If you think you're carzy what does that make me?? My "pre FALL" stuff {pumpkins, acorns, squirrels, and orange berries} has been up for 2 weeks! It makes me so happy, and so does your giveaway!
ReplyDeleteNope, not crazy! Love the hat!!
ReplyDeleteOh I love this hat! I'm a knitter and am making something similar to it right now. Love the Halloween combo on it!
ReplyDeleteDecorate all you want!
Too cute! I wondered also but everyone said since Starbucks started doing pumpkin flavors on Sept 1 it was ok. So I put my stuff out last week.
ReplyDeleteOh so cute!
ReplyDeleteI just put all my fall decor up the other day. I'm ready for summer to be over and the temps to be under the 90's. Bring on Fall!
I love fall and love to decorate for it. I had a lady who works in our craft store (she lives somewhere in my neighborhood) ask me a month ago if I had started decorating the outside of my house for fall yet? I guess I better get with it. You're right on schedule with your fall decor!!--Vickie
ReplyDeleteNope! Not crazy at all. I want to put mine up too. The only thing stopping me is we are going to move soon and I don't want to put it out twice. The hat is super cute. I totally follow your blog...been a favorite of mine for awhile!
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear that I am not the only one that wants to put up fall decor!!! Love your stuff :)
ReplyDeleteI am a follower as well :)
ReplyDeleteThese look great - I'm holding off to put up my decorations until the 24th, when my daughter has a day off school. It's hard to wait that long, though!
ReplyDeleteOh my! How fabulous. Your work is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYou are not crazy at all. I'm so ready for fall---all of it. We have been too busy to decorate, but it will happen soon. At least it hasn't been as hot in Atlanta as is usually is in September. That makes it easier to think fall.
RACH!
ReplyDeleteyou are so fun and I just LOVE YOU! I want to decorate too but the hubber thinks I'm nuts. I'm doing it anyways and so should you! I was thinking of you the other day when I bought these super cute pumpkins crammed way in the back of a clearance shelf at Tuesday Morning! Let the holidays come!
ok, i'm gonna comment, and follow you, since I secretly staulk your blog! haha And no you're not crazy to put up fall stuff, I think once Labor Day is over, it's time to put up fall decos! :) HAVE FUN! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you for neglecting your blog! - Life gets busy and it is so easy to get lost in decorating for fall! (you'll have to show us some of your decor when it's all up!)
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I LOVE THIS HAT!!! Please enter me to win it! My one year old daughter Greta would look oh so cute in it! Thanks!
Oh and I am a FOLLOWER as well!
