It's beginning to feel a lot like....

I realize that it's only November. But, it's hard not to get in the Christmas spirit when every store you go into already has all of their Christmas decorations and goodies out. So, after leaving Hobby Lobby last week feeling very festive and in the Christmas mood....I went home and starting thinking/researching a Christmas wreath for our front door. {I have a small obsession with wreaths lately} I found a few that I loved but, wanted to attempt to make it myself. So, back to hobby lobby I went. When I got to Hobby Lobby, I was very happy to find out that all Christmas decorations and crafts were 50% off. You gotta love Hob Lob!!

Instead of doing other things around the house today {laundry, cleaning, school work}   I decided I would attempt to make the wreath. This is how it came out....

Don't worry I did not leave it on my front door. I just put it there for the picture. I will put it away until after Thanksgiving. Seeing it in the pictures makes me want to tweak a few things... maybe add the letter "J" in the middle to personalize it. But, overall I am pretty happy with the finished product! I am tossing around the idea of adding this to the Plum Berry Creek facebook page. What do you think I should do?

Showing the love!

Just incase you didn't notice...my blog has a new look. When I first decided to start a blog I was so excited to make it look fun and cute. But, I soon realized how hard that was to do. I found a few sites that had free blog layouts (which is what I had before this layout) but, it looked totally different from our Plum Berry Creek "logo" on facebook. So, I started my search for a custom blog layout. For those who have never looked into that, let me just tell you it can get pretty very expensive! Then I came across this lady who sold custom layouts on Etsy for a VERY good price. She was so fantastic to work with. She let me have a say the whole entire way and did not finish until I was 100% happy. So, for any of you out there that might be looking for a "new look" for your blog or know someone that is, you should definitely look into Three Little Birdies .

On a different note. The last couple days the weather has gotten cooler and it is really starting to feel like Fall. So, I'm going to leave you with a few pictures of my favorite Fall decorating ideas.

Happy Fall Yall!!

I love Sundays!

Hello everyone out there! First of all I would like to apologize for being MIA for a week. Having a blog, launching the Plum Berry Creek Facebook Page, and keeping up with school has been more to handle than I had expected. I have been super busy this week. This week we had 3 orders placed and one of those orders was for multiple things. Please don't misunderstand me when I say busy, because it was a wonderful kind of busy! Second of all, I would like to thank you for all of the nice comments on facebook. We really appreciate all of the love and support we have been getting.

I spent my Saturday with my sister, brother in law and their kids at craft shows and shopping the cute shops in downtown Richmond. We had so much fun! This is my favorite time of the year. The weather is so wonderful and there is always something fun like this to do.

How adorable are all these shops? I could have spent a week shopping here. 

This weekend coming up is the annual Sugar Plum Market. I have actually never been, so I am very excited to go this year and see all of the fabulous vendors. Then on Saturday, myself, my sisters and our mom are all getting up VERY early and driving to Canton for the day. I have never been here either but, have heard how fantastic it is. It's going to be a long day, but I couldn't be more excited about going. Have any of you ever been to the Sugar Plum Market or Canton? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Happy Monday!

I had a pretty busy weekend. My sister, Amanda and I threw a baby shower for a friend on Saturday.  On Sunday, I finished taking pictures and pricing products for my facebook page (that I finally launched) and also for the store that I have rented a space in (details to come on that). This summer I have been busy working on products and dreaming of the day I would finally put my stuff out there. Yesterday when I finished the facebook page and all that was left was to publish it and finally let everyone see I have to be honest....I was mortified! This has only been an "idea" in my head and now all of the sudden it felt very real. My things would be out there to be seen and more importantly judged! (eeeek) But, then I realized that if I am not willing to take chances then my dreams will never come true. So, I did it! Please visit my facebook page and browse through my products and tell me what you think.
