I am so ready for Fall!!!!!! and My First Metamorphisis Monday

I am so excited to join http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ for their Metamorphosis Monday. I have a couple items that I have been working on. Last month I did a little thright shopping and found a couple goodies.
First, I found these old windows $4 each......

And I turned on into this.....it hold my daughters work schedule since I can never seem to keep up with it!

Second, I found this picture with gorgeous wood frame for .25.

A little spray paint, cut up place mat......

That's all I have, today, for MM. Hope you enjoyed the pics. I love using no money to make amazing decorations!!!

Now, for a little Fall decorating!!!!!!!!

I Spy book for Halloween in my kitchen..........

Another Halloween book in the kitchen.........

My kitchen window has "EEK" framed and 2 glass pumpkins with candles in them.....

Hutch decked out in fall colors..........

Kitchen table with my rooster, scale, and a pumpkin on top of a fall rug.....

Entryway...........

Wooden ladder with fall blankets........

Candles and such in living room..........

Entertainment area............

Thank you for visiting. God bless!!!!!!!!!!!!
