Simple Fall Decorations (using Mod Podge)

It’s AUTUMN.  Yipee.  I’m posting just a few simple fall decoration ideas that I made.  I’m not an amazing crafty girl, and I don’t expect you to come to this site for unbelievable crafts.  But I sometimes get into it and enjoy a good craft.  And I figure you may be looking for some simple Autumn craft ideas from a non-super-crafty person.  These won’t blow your mind, but they may get the wheels turning.  And seriously, I discovered the wonders of Mod Podge.  (I’m a little behind on that, I know).

I’ve pinned them before on Pinterest (without my watermark), but now I am officially putting them on my site.  Oh, and check out My Sis’s cool and simple Halloween Yarn Wreath.   Happy Autumn.

This is simple because I didn’t even use any glue.  I just poked the stems into the grapevine wreath.  I like that if I get sick of it, I can easily change it.

My version of the BOO SIGN.  This was fun to make.  My Sis and I both made one.  We got letters and scrapbook paper from Hobby Lobby.  Painted the letters black. Traced the letters on the back of the paper.  Cut out the letter shape.  Mod Podged them on.  Added ribbon and little ghost embellishments.  
This is easy too.  Just 2×4 blocks of wood cut as desired.  Scrapbook paper and Mod Podge.  You can be as creative as you want.
More Mod Podge.  Wooden slab, painted as desired.  Scrapbook paper and Mod Podge.  Then just basic letters from your craft store, glued on.  I would probably put a bigger ribbon at the top now too.
Oh, and please vote for me if you can . . . help spread the word about my little site.  THANKS.

New movie coming out that I want to see. I remembe New movie coming out that I want to see. I remember when this happened in 1989. The boy Josh was lost in an abandoned mine in UT for 5 days. It was a miracle how they found him. He was about my age so it made an impression on me. Now this true story has been made into a movie called Faith of Angels. @faithofangelsfilm 
Check out the trailer here: https://upvir.al/158749/lp158749  DO YOU REMEMBER this news story?
Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @hal Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @halecentretheatre lately!! The Nutty Professor had us laughing all the way to the end and the music was clever and fun.  If you’ve been trying to decide about this one, I’d say don’t miss it! #halecentretheatre #thenuttyprofessormusical #halecentretheatresandy
Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Ticket Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Tickets were only $8.01 on 8/01 and the zoo opened at 8:01 am. 
I went with my nieces and nephews and it was VERY BUSY! (like Disneyland busy). We arrived about 11 am and every parking lot was completely full and side streets were filling fast. Needless to say we had to walk a bit in the heat just to get to the front gate. There were lines to get in, lines, at snack shops, and definitely a line for the train. BUT we saw some animals—-lions, tigers, bears (oh my!)…plus giraffes, zebras, and a leopard.  It was definitely worth $8.01 but it’s not for the faint of heart. A fun adventure! #hoglezoo #801day #familyactivities #hoglezooutah 🐒🐅🦒🐘🦓
So the amount of car wash centers popping up every So the amount of car wash centers popping up everywhere has made me curious. Why are they everywhere?! So we decided to try is and see what the fuss was all about. Here’s the PROS AND CONS we found:

Pros:
• Gentle yet very thorough wash—no scratching!
• Attendants right there to help you
• Fun lights and cool sprayers—it’s like a show!
• Powerful vacuums and extras for detailing

Cons:
• So expensive! This is not your regular $5 car wash. 
• They have limited hours. This one closes by 7 pm so no car washing whenever you want
• Kinda an eyesore to have a car wash in every corner in town. 

What do you think? What Pros and Cons have you found? Do you like these big car was centers?
Happy 4th of July! We ♥️ 🇺🇸!! How did yo Happy 4th of July! We ♥️ 🇺🇸!! How did you celebrate today? #4thofjuly #fireworks
