Sew What's New for Halloween?

Posted by admin


Hey "Ghoul" friends! Who loves Witches? Who loves HALLOWEEN? I can't believe Fall is coming soon! I welcome Fall with cheers of smiles! FALL means cooler temperatures for the
southwest! It's my favorite time of season, besides Christmas!

"Sew"...This is what's NEW and coming soon to my etsy site! I have Halloween banners, bags and pillows in these fun fabrics! Halloween is such a fun season to decorate and cheer up the HOME with frightful JOY!




I have a weakness for Halloween witches! I am currently working on a new pattern for Witches with clothes and all! If you have or know a great pattern for cute witches, drop me a comment!

Halloween Pillows are always great for decorating benches, chairs, family room, beds, etc. I love Halloween fabrics!
Don't be a "Scaredy Cat"! Create some fun Halloween Creations! Pumpkins, bats, withches and ghosts oh my! Dream Big!

Inspiration--Come along for the ride!

Come along----jump in! We're off to the Davis County Parade of Homes! This picture cracks me up! Its pretty ture to life for sisters and friends!


In my travels this summer, we saw some pretty amazing homes with beautiful views of the rocky mountains. Here are a few highlights of pictures that inspired me in someway either by Landscaping, paint color, color combinations or decor.
I Hope you feel inspired also!

This was a large chalk board chalk art in a children's room-great for inspiring our children to CREATE, and DREAM BIG!


I loved the glass containers, I know this is not anything new and exciting, but I just lOVE glass containers with a lot of color and interesting objects inside. Its always fun to see what people like to collect and how they display them!

These pictures of shoes were in a mud room where the family leaves their shoes!
I thought that was pretty cool, years from now those pictures will bring back memories of their travels and what they were doing when they wore those shoes!

This was a darling Nursery, sorry- you can't see all the details by this picture! The shelf was so cool! It went completely around the nursery with contemporary decor, a lot of blue and brown!





I loved the rooms that were created especially for sewing and crafts!


We all need our little corner in the world along with a little bit of fabric, a lot of imagination, a pinch of pixie dust, and soon the creativity soars!

The pink in this room was so cheerful and elegant with the black furnishings!


Every little girl can feel special in her own space! I love this room created for sisters! The pictures above the beds are so cute with the red and black!


Our next ride--Quilt Shop Hop!
