It's Almost Fall Y'all-TJ Maxx-Prim Decor Store-Birthday Fall Haul

     Hello thrifty mommas!! It is almost that time of year the fall season and it is my fav season especially to decorate for, I just love the colors and pumpkins.  For my birthday my mom took me out of town for some shopping so I had a some birthday money to blow and what better to spend my money on than fall decor?
     Of course you know I had to add my gnomes in this year and the best place to find gnomes is TJ Maxx (home goods and marshalls as well since they are owned by the same people). I got these guys for 7.99, 12.99 and 6.99. I got the flags at a home decor store (or craft shop as my mom and I call them) the gnome is adorable and he was 15.99 the L one was 13.99. Love all my new stuff and can not wait till the end of august to put it out. Maybe I'll do it know it's my house I can do what I want.

It's Almost Fall Y'all-Hobby Lobby-Birthday Fall Haul

     Hello thrifty mommas!! My mom to me to a hobby lobby for my birthday this past weekend for my birthday. Let me just say it is a good thing that I do not live near one cause oh goodness I went crazy but in my defense my mom did give me birthday money for the trip sooooooo. They had a bunch of teal items and you know I have been a sucker for teal and wanted to add more to my fall decor, it was the perfect storm lol.
     Of course they had their fall decor out and it was 40% off so ya girl got everything she wanted cause she won't be going back to hobby lobby for  a long time. Everything in the pics below was around $90 with tax and I think that is a steal. Nothing was over $9 and the lowest costing item was 1.20. I see why everyone loves hobby lobby so much. Good thing I won't be going before Christmas cause I DO NOT need anymore Christmas stuff but did I really need more fall items????

     Hello thrifty mommas!! Today's post is an update on my spring/summer 2021 porch update. My birthday was this week and my mom spoiled me as usual. She got me a few things to add to my porch and some money to get some fall items from Hobby Lobby!! Stay tuned for the fall goodness I got from there. 
     For now enjoy the updates I made to my porch decor, she found me a galvanized metal welcome wreath holder so I could put my wreath on my screen door (she got it a kirklands). Then she got me the rae dunn grow watering can and the rae dunn tweet birdhouse (at craft stores). I love all my new decor but my favorite item is the floral gnome (he came from amazon) I love him!

A Closer Look At The Flowers On My Front Porch-Spring/Summer 2021

     Hello thrifty mommas!! Wanted to do a closer look at my plants that are on my porch for spring/summer. I got all of my impatients and lambs ear at the farmer's market. I got my succulents from an older lady that was selling plants in a field where a lot of people set up for yard sales. The purple and white plant was bougt at walmart along with the pink plant that looks like it is on vines. All of the items they are planted in are either wood boxes, galvanized buckets or enamel pans. I really wanted to use things that were inspired by the farmhouse them. I just love all of my plants and think they are so pretty, I have took really good care of them this year and hope to do so every year!

My Front Porch Decor for Spring/Summer 2021-Gnomes-Flowers-Galvanized Metals-Teal

     Hello thrifty mommas!! Today I am sharing my front porch decor with you, there are lots of flowers, gnomes and "farmhouse" inspiration. I also used teal as my accent color and it is sprinkles around in the decor (just like my house). Most of the items came from yard sales, flea markets and thrift stores but there are a few store bought items, mainly walmart and dollar general. Most of my flowers came from the farmer's market or yard sales the rest came from walmart. I love my little serine space, my son and I along with our little dog love to go out and set on the porch. It turned out just how I wanted it to.

The Landscaping Around My Front Porch Door-Gnomes-Lemons-Succulents-Primitive

     Hello thrifty mommas!! Today's post is going to be about the landscaping around my front porch door. I haven't gotten to do alot with this since my husband was screening in the porch. I put down some red lava rock and some grey landscaping rock. I went with a black/white gnome and lemons theme with a little bit of color with the flowers. 
     I may be changing the impatients on the steps because they are not looking too good but all the other flowers are doing really well. I got a lot of these items at yard sales, flea markets or thrift stores but I did get the flag off of amazon, the black gnome from walmart and the welcome sign from tractor supply. I really love how it turned out and of course I am sure it will change some cause I am always adding stuff or taking stuff away. Also most of the flowers/succulents came from ladies at yard sales or farmer's market.
