I tried to not waste any time going from Halloween to "Fall" decor. South Florida really has no Fall but I should probably retire the bat wreath for a something a bit more in line with Thanksgiving. When I was wandering around Micheal's right before Halloween they were having a super sale and I had a great coupon to go along with it. I bought these three mini grapevine wreaths and fake flower/seed things for under $4. Score!So I didn't find a huge wreath but that doesn't mean it can't look good … [Read more...]
my next victims – succulent garden
I bought these little glass hanging planters/candle holders when we first bought the house and they've been sitting in storage since. On my last trip to Home Depot I picked up this assortment of succulents determined to put the glass holders to use. As I was walking towards the hubby in the store, plants in hand and all excited for what I was going to do with them, he says "You are going to kill more plants?" He has no faith in my ability to keep a plant alive. Thanks, babe. I know I do not have … [Read more...]

I love a lot of … [Read more...]

lazy mutt bed – tin bucket dog bed tutorial
I ended up buying a large white beverage tin with the intention of making something for the creatures. I really, really, really wanted to make this kitty play area for Annie based on this post from Gardners 2 Bergers but then we adopted Lemur. Crazy kitten + grass + dirt would not equal a good combination in our house. Condo Cat Backyard - From Gardners 2 BergerSo sad because it really is a cute idea for indoor kitties. The tin has just been taking up space in my family room all summer only … [Read more...]
pet crafts – pet toy organization
This is nothing fancy but I figured I would share what works for us for all those cohabiting with furry creatures. Living with multiple animals equals an assortment of toys and pet stuff in general. While I love my babies, there are certain things of theirs I am not a fan of. Clutter in general is not my thing so their toys have been known to drive me crazy. What is the best way to keep the pet toys in order? Cute storage containers is what works for me. The cats have a little greek key paper … [Read more...]
