I wanted to bring you to my friend Marti's front yard~it is downright beautiful. I featured her last fall, and I couldn't help but grab my camera and start taking pictures when I was there. She's not only a decorator, but a gardener as well, and so it makes for a killer combination. Her husband is in agriculture, so he gets to bring home some amazing pumpkins.

Happy October (rabbit!)
Rhoda is having a Fall Party over at her place, and I'm joining up with some fall decor in my house:

Y'all are the best.
Last week, I asked if anyone had seen outdoor rugs on clearance for my patio.
Of course, you came through with fantastic ideas as usual.
Frugal Jen (are you shocked that she had a frugal tip for me? :)
told me she had seen some mixed in with the regular rugs at Target. The summer clearance was wiped out at my store and I thought all the rugs were gone with it.

I saw this $2 arrangement at a yard sale and it's not the flowers that caught my eye, but what was underneath it all..

I didn't make it out this past weekend, but here are some of my treasures from the past few weeks~
The cutest tins~brand new, thought they would be perfect to put some goodies in for some gifts this Christmas, 25 cents each:

shoes, $1:

It's Friday!
A few random things to share :)

* Old Navy is having additional 50% off their clearance again (call your store to verify) My store is slim pickins in every dept but womens. If you go, grab a coupon at www.oldnavyweekly.com first. I can never figure out how to get the best ones, so I rely on swag grabber to tell me where they are.

* Remember how I raved about Colorcharts.org, then they were poof! gone one day? Well.....they're back! Yay~go match paint colors though in case they disappear again :)

* Here is another inexpensive gift idea: InStyle magazine is only $5 for a whole year subscription at Amazon through Sunday~you can't even buy one issue for that! Perfect for any fashionista~I'm giving it to someone and printing a picture of the magazine cover off, and then mounting it on cardstock with ribbon to announce that it will be coming soon in her mailbox.



Also, if you're out and about,

Bath & Body Works has a printable coupon here for a free full sized Anti-Bacterial Hand Soap with any purchase. So, you could buy a cute little gift bag for $1 and get a free soap for a sweet little gift.

Have a wonderful weekend~

(I wasn't paid to tell you about these~just passing along deals!)
