I have the BEST friends........ part 1

Serio man, I am blessed with fantastic friends!  One's who know JUST the right thing for JUST the right time.

Friday after work, I came home to an empty house and was hurrying to straighten up before Hurricane Sissy hit.

As I walked into my bedroom there lay a box with my name on it?  Wha?  A package for me?

I looked at the return address and saw that it was from Tammy over at Time Flies.  One of my most favorite people in the whole world.  I knew it was gonna be something fun!

I ripped the box open and the minute I could see what was inside, I started laughing hysterically!

She is the QUEEN of all things decorating.  She is the master, the guru, the ultimate CHAMPION of decorating.  Me?  meh - not so much

A funny Halloween card, a cute spider plate, a banner, dishtowels, table cover, the Bite Me napkins, and the HUGE bag of skittles.
Let's just say, there was more decor in that little box, than in my already sorry lot of Halloween decorations all put together.

The card?
Inside she had written:
"for some reason I have the feeling that your house may be Halloween decor deprived., so I thought I'd help you out a little (and believe me, if I was in town, I'd be decorating it in person!)

I think she must have gotten the idea from this post

Today, after our regular Saturday cleaning I decided to put these fun Halloween treats to work.


The Bite Me napkins are in the napkin holder - but everyone has strict instructions NOT TO TOUCH THEM!
and the cute spider plate is holding keys that normally just get thrown very haphazardly on the table somewhere.

The dishtowels are hanging very cutely from the oven handle.  Again - the instructions of DO NOT TOUCH THEM have been given

The banner fit perfectly across my mantle and hung quite nicely.


and the table cover fit perfectly over my coffee table and added some great color to my living room.

Gosh Tammy - thank you SO MUCH!!

You've helped me step up a rung on the ladder of decorating......  : )

  3. After reading your post weeks ago about fall; I now think of you whenever I take a cool fall picture.

    I might have to send Tammy a thank you note from me to her! I LOVE FALL. Do you need anymore decorations? I have plenty to spare.
