Autumn Decor

Violet has been very excited to decorate for autumn, and for Halloween especially. We found out that Michaels craft stores offer free classes to make various items, and Violet was looking forward to making a wreath.

She picked Halloween items to put on her wreath - purple bats, black roses. The Michael's employee was so sweet and helpful, and we had a great experience.

Later that weekend, the girls made more crafts in the garage - they spent hours one Sunday afternoon creating things, all on their own accord.

Here, Cora was creating a wreath of her own, with vines.

We all went to another Michaels craft event, and made yarn pumpkins. (Cora chose green yarn, and made an apple.)

Such a great assortment of homemade crafts!

Violet was very happy when the calendar turned to October, and we could add the Halloween decorations out front to the autumn things we already had out.

The pumpkins above the door light up - Violet insisted we needed new and better decorations out front this year.
