That is my little public service announcement! :)
Now on to the post for today:
I have all of my Halloween put away and I have been a little slow on getting my fall/Thanksgiving decorations out. I just am having a hard time getting into it. I think that if I put it off, it will not come as fast! It is not Thanksgiving that I really worry about it is Christmas that seems to come waaay too fast! So let’s just be in denial and see where that gets me! :)
I did get one thing done and put out:
Here is my fall pillow wrap.
I made a linen pillow cover for this one that can be used with other wraps throughout the year. Now I have my black one from Halloween and a linen one. I should be able to use these two pillows with most any wraps!
I love the fall leaves in this fabric with the orange polka dot ruffles. Polka Dots and ruffles just go together, do they not? And the brown ric rac finishes it off so perfectly!
I paired it up with this fun ruffle pillow that my sister made me. I think that they look so cute together!
Thanks sis for making the perfect complimentary pillow!
This is what it looks like in my front room.
I love the blue and brown they just seem to go together! I do love the fall colors in this room, but I don’t know if it is enough to motivate me to get the rest of the house decorated!
If anyone wants to make this simple pillow and pillow wrap you can get the pattern here, complete with a great way to make your own pillow forms out of a bed pillow for $2.50 each! It doesn’t get any better than that!
I do have the fabric to make my Christmas wrap that will go with my black pillow, so look for that to be coming. I guess that I need to get with the program, because the holidays are going to come no matter what! :)
Have a great day everyone! Love Ya!

You are a GENIUS!! I love the idea of seasonal pillow wraps! And what a terrific gift to make the pillow and the wraps. Wow. My mind is just planning and planning, then sewing and sewing! :)
And girl, I am going to be your newest follower!
I saw your link on Not Just A Housewife’s party.
Wow! Thanks for the fun comment! Welcome to my blog and I am so glad to have a new follower! I hope that you will visit often. :)
FYI – I tried linking to Google plus and your RSS feed and neither work. Did like you on FB and now headed to Pinterest.
I know I am still working out some of the kinks with my new makeover. Hopefully I will get it figured out soon!
Beautiful! You chose really gorgeous fabric! I’d love for you to share this at my link party Submarine Sunday. It’s open until Friday @ 11:59pm. I hope you’ll stop by!

Thank You so much for your kind comment! The pillow wraps are a fun way to have seasonal pillows without a lot of expense or storage places!
