I'm linking up with my friend Holly for her Tried it Tuesday linky! This weekend I started decorating for fall. Fall is my FAVORITE season! I love the cooler weather and the beautiful colors. It also reminds me of home. (Holly will have to post pictures so you know what I am talking about.) I miss seeing all the hills full of color! Here in NC I am surrounded by Pine trees.
I started with my front door and new I wanted to attempt a mesh wreath. I'm not sure why, but that mesh stuff really intimidates me. I think I am a pretty good crafter, but that is one medium I have stayed away from until now.
I found this really simple Mesh Pumpkin door decor in a book my mom bought me last Spring. Of course I couldn't find the book (thank you boys) so I went to the next best thing...Pinterest!
You can get the step by step directions HERE.
This was the perfect project to get over my fear of the mesh. It seriously took me maybe 10-15 minutes to make!
And because I personalize EVERYTHING I found a way to add an "S" to my wreath. :) I've also done a pretty good job at training my little guy there...as soon as I hung it up he said, "It's perfect!". Yes, yes it is son! :)
That turned out SUPER CUTE! I have yet to attempt making door decor. I too have a fear of the mesh. You make it look easy though! I'll have to put on my big girl panties and try it!

That is so clever!! Love it! I wish I was more crafty. Yes, I will have to post pictures of the beautiful fall weather in WNY. I loved my view from my 4th floor room at St. Bona's when I was there in the fall. :) I think I would miss the fall the most if I ever moved. Thanks for linking up, friend! XXOO
