Make It // pretty pumpkins

Happy Halloween!! Carving pumpkins may be over but we can still decorate them and have them around for Thanksgiving! For this week's Make It I'm sharing a collection of pretty pumpkins! Click on the link below the pictures to learn how to create them!

You can add some sparkle to your pumpkins!

Using paint pens is a great way to decorate your pumpkins! 

Using fabric paint is also a great way to decorate your pumpkin! 

Wrap your pumpkins in yarn! 

Cover your pumpkin with fabric!

Melt crayons on your pumpkin!

Add a doily to your pumpkin!

Orange doesn't go with your home decor? Paint the whole pumpkin!

Turn your pumpkin into a votive holder!

Happy Making!!

Song on Repeat

The Mr. and I got dressed up as burglars yesterday and headed to our downtown square to pass out candy and mustaches on a stick to trick or treaters at Enid's annual Scare on the Square. 

I totally underestimated how busy it was going to be. I bought lots of candy but only made 110 mustaches and we ran out of both very quickly. The minute we ran out of candy I swear the kids turned into little candy zombies! I've never been so scared of children until I ran out of candy!

For the song on repeat this week we have Pa Pa Power by Dead Man's Bones.

Dead Man's Bones consists of Ryan Gosling and Zach Shields. Since they sing about ghosts and monsters I always add their songs to our store playlist around this time of year. So today I'm sharing my favorite from them. 

I hope you have a wonderful day full of fun and spooky things!

I'll be listing some new owl pillows in my etsy shop today! 

It's cold out today so after work I plan to stay in and watch the rest of Mad Monster Party (recommended by Heidi), It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (which I've watched almost every week. I love it so much) and drink some hot apple cider! Can't wait! 

Have a lovely Thursday friends!

The Leaves are Falling playlist

The leaves are changing colors and falling in my neighborhood! 
Next to indie rock my favorite music is jazz, and especially this time of year.
It makes me feel warm and cozy! 
I've compiled just a few of my favorites that are always on my playlist.
What's on your fall music playlist?



  

The mister and I went to a corn maze this weekend. Since Oklahoma had a terribly hot summer they had a hard time growing their field maze tall enough. Sadly, that didn't stop us from getting lost! We went around in circles a few times. It was pretty fun. Oh, and they had a petting zoo too! I'm also happy I get to cross off something on my fall to do list! 

Have you been to a corn maze before? Did you feel claustrophobic? Did you cheat and cut paths? (we might have done that) 

If you haven't been to one before and you have one in your area; I hope you get the chance to go!

Halloween is almost here! For this week's Make It I'm sharing a few of my favorite DIY halloween costumes! Just click on the links below to learn how to make them. 

Eggs and Bacon! 

Lady Bird Owl 

Bird Mask

Rag Doll

And if you're like me, Halloween always seeks up on you and you're standing in your closet the night of a party trying to figure out what your clothes can turn you in to. I love these inspirations from The Spotted Fox! 

Happy Making! 

The awesome Frocktober dress.

This candy corn nail tutorial! 

Bowtie Lasagna! We found the recipe over at The Pioneer Women's blog and made some last night. It was so yummy!

The pocket manfriend. 

Te-he! 

This hilariously cute dog costume! Dexter would definitely disown me if I got this for him. I won't forget last year's incident. 

Any plans this weekend? We'll be visiting the corn maze and pumpkin patch.

 I'm very excited! I hope you have a fun and lovely weekend. 

Happy Friday!

(pumpkin carving the night before the wedding)

Hello everyone! We've just been relaxing this week. 

I hope to share some photos of the wedding soon! I'm so happy the weather was warm because this week has been nice and chilly! 

Have you had a chance to carve pumpkins and bake pumpkin seeds yet? We got to the night before the wedding! I love this time of year.
