My name is Kelsey and my little part of the blogworld is over at Tattered and Inked, where I blog about DIY projects, furniture redos and fun free printables that I throw together ๐Ÿ™‚ I’m an OT student going through school and using my blog to keep me sane throughout it. I’d love to have you stop by for a visit!


Ok.  So my favorite part of fall is cuddling up with a pile of blankets and pillows with my fireplace a-going.  Too bad Arkansas isn’t up with fall yet… though today finally got cool-ish! ๐Ÿ™‚  And I’m all in fall-decor mode.  So when I ran into Wal-mart for milk today after church, I stopped in my tracks when I saw these:
The cutest leaf placemats! They’re velvet-y on one side and silky on another… and they are totally double-lined! Yay. Cuz I had a plan ๐Ÿ™‚

They were just 3$… maybe a little too pricey for a placemat…after all we can make those, right?
But not for my plan…My husband rolled his eyes when he realized I wasn’t just carrying back milk. I also grabbed a bag of this stuff:

And got to work while little man watched his new favorite movie: Aladdin.  All I did was find a seam to rip out…got a hole big enough and stuffed the stuffing in.  Easy, peasy.
And LOOK!
Oh my word!  They were even cuter than what I thought they would be ๐Ÿ™‚  I love that.

I mean, how easy can you get?
I’m in love.I bought four… so, I’ve got to get to work on the others… but I had to show you!  They just add the perfect fall touch!  And I got that bowl and bag o’ pumpkins at wally world too…hubby really rolled his eyes ๐Ÿ™‚  I love the bright colors against my brown couch. They make me smile.
Now just imagine a whole pile… makes you smile too, right?
Happy Fall, everyone.
