the griffith photo collage.

so this is what i do...

i "piece" things together.

and i'm SO okay with that.

i gotta tell yall...

i'm in ♥ with the new photo collage in my living room!!!

it's sentimental {& a little unbalanced} and i think it's perfect.

me & my handy dandy manly man created it.

{thanks honey for putting up with my indecisiveness.}

oh and my barn house sign...me loves it.

alot.

i know this is just a glimpse of my photo collage...

but trust me when i say...it's rocks out.

*wink*

hanging quilts: the rachel way

so i ♥ having quilts all over the house.

because of that, i have to come up with new, different & exciting ways to display them.
{i'm weird like that.}

so without further ado...i give yall a new tutorial.

yayyy!!!

materials needed:

2 wrought iron plate holders {yes, yall read that right.}

drywall screws
a stack of quilts you wanna display

as you can see...handy dandy manly mans are opitional.

i chose to utilize mine for this project. lol.

{your handy dandy manly man will know where to put your drywall screws.}

place your plate holder on the wall, turned the wrong way.

this is the magic of me displaying my quilts.

yall will overlap both of your plate holders to make one long holder.

isn't it gorgeous???

me loves it.

{by overlapping the plate holders, you create that pretty little scroll in the middle.}

are yall excited yet???

next add some spiffy twig & berry garland.

i should confess that i have twig & berry garlands all over my house too.
i think i'm addicted. lol.

now add your very own fabric wreath.
{sameless plug. haha.}

then add your stack of quilts to the hooks!!!

now stand back and admire your quilty goodness!!!
{it's okay to oooh & aaah for a few minutes!!!}

and as always...
toot your own horn!!!
if you make this, add the pic to my p.s. i quilt: sew & tell flickr group.

happy fall yall.

happy fall yall.

today is my 75th post!!!

here in ohio it looks, feels, and smells like fall.

that's why i wanted to share some fall eye candy with yall.

so my house is being attacked by pumpkins.

they've been spotted everywhere!!!

{and this is just SOME of them.}

tehehe.

and i just wanna say that my camera is NOT playing nice with others!!!

like in the first picture...that quilt has the best colors and you can't even tell it.

{to see a much better picture of it...go here.}

guess what i'm making for supper tonight...jack o' lantern pie.

more on the tomorrow. promise.

p.s. there's only 10 days until my 26th birthday!!!

{and momma will be here in '11 and a wake up'}
