WOYWW # 379

Welcome, sure doesn't seem like WOYWW should be here already. We had a long holiday weekend and so everything is a day off.  Check out our hostess Julia at the STAMPING GROUND to join in the fun.

My desk only reveals results of attending a Sunday at the Antiques in the Park event in Clear Lake, to the right are the fun things I purchased. The fabric owl and the metal objects (soon to be an owl) are things I've been working with.
Somehow I have this thing with picking up decks of cards  ....no clue why, just like the covers I guess and also wooden boxes. I hope to store men"s  greeting cards in this wooden Cigar box.

Some asked to see my Fall decor.  My collection of Witches can be seen from a long ago post,
Little Treasures 

I've added a small tree with ornaments and a few small quilts, many fall leaf garlands and fall flowers.  I've 2 containers yet to open as we were gone over the weekend.



Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful week.

Thanks fr showing us the pictures of The Fall decorations at yours. Lovely!
Also enjoyed looking at your stash and I can see the metal bits and why they are being used to make an owl. Hope we get to see it when finished.
Thanks for sharing

Oh that quilt is such fun! Its lovely that you take the time to add touches of fall to your décor, its all I can do to change a calendar at the mo! Hope the stormy weather has passed - you qualify for a nap now!

Oh wow - only just September and you're getting the Halloween sentiments and decorations out - my kind of lady!

I'm going to demand my hubby lets me do the same! Hehehehe. Fab collection of witches, lady...!

I'm happy you are ahead of the Halloween game by just a bit! If you are like me, I have to do it when I get the time. I'm not able to play along, can't seem to get my ducks in a row! Just getting old and can't do more than 1 thing at a time and Heartfelt Creations happens on Wednesday! Hoping you guys are doing well!

I wish we did more in the UK for Halloween though it is becoming more popular. I have quite a few packs of playing cards too with the intention of altering them but some are so nice that I just can't do it. Have a great woyww, Angela x 17

Oh I love Halloween and Autumn themed decorations. We're still raging summer here so it isn't the right time for them yet, although with Hurricane Newton being here it feels more fallish. Love your finds from the antique mall. PJ #36

Your fabric owl deserves top spot on your Fall tree!
Your cigar box is cool and useful for so many things.
Your canvas is really nice...love the colors. A girl can never have too much of a stash!

Happy WOYWW. I wasn't brought up with Halloween being a big event, although it is much more popular in the UK now. When the kids were younger we had a party, and looking forward to our granddaughters wanting to have some spooky fun! Ali x #19

Belated happy WOYWW, Sylvia. Great post. I love owls too and I do like your finds - especially the packs of cards. Halloween was never a big event here in Scotland when I was a child but it has become much more popular in recent years and I look forward to seeing the spooky costumes my great-grandchildren will be wearing this year. Your quilts are brilliant. Have a great week. Elizabeth x #41
