Outdoor Saturday: Gourds & Flowers


My crafty sister Christie always goes all out for holidays! She recently (or three weeks ago) decorated for Halloween and fall - I always laugh at how early she starts decorating for holidays. This runs in our family - I blame our parents for our love for holiday decor and early decorating habits. :) Why is this my post for Outdoor Saturday? Well, Christie likes to bring the outdoors in... she does this with gourds and miniature pumpkins in the fall. She loves to use the items that she already has, like her McCarty Pottery candle holders, sugar mold, and vase, and changes them every season. Bringing in fall gourds and flowers (and adding ribbons) totally changes the look of these everyday pieces. Bringing the outdoors in is a great (and usually economical) way of decorating for the season!
