Inside: How to make an easy Halloween photo display so you can enjoy all that kid cuteness from years past!

I’m pretty sure nothing’s cuter than little kids in their Halloween costumes. Am I right?

So Halloween comes and goes and we take a bunch of pictures and then pretty much never see them again. All that cuteness gone to waste. No bueno.

Well, this year I’m enjoying all the Halloween cuteness from years past with this super simple Halloween photo display, and it was such an easy project!

Best part? It’s one of those projects that you can literally have done in less than one nap time. (It’s even easier than my DIY Halloween door decoration.)

I kept costs low by using a thrifted frame that I picked up at the Goodwill.

 What you will need to make a Halloween photo display:

  • A frame
  • Some string or paper rope.
  • mini clothes pins
  • foam cut outs (these bats and spiders are from Michael’s)
  • Spray paint if you don’t like the color of your frame
  • A hot glue gun and some hot glue sticks
  • A staple gun

How to make a holiday photo display…

The first thing you’ll want to do is get rid of the insides of the frame so you have just the frame. If you spray paint it, give it a light sanding first and then a few light coats of spray paint. Let it dry completely.

Next, you will attach the paper rope or string in what ever pattern you wish, securing it with a staple gun on the back side of the frame. To start and stop the string use 2 staples, bend the extra rope or string down at a 90 degree angle, and then staple again. This will keep the rope or string from slipping out.

Once the string is attached, plug in your hot glue gun and arrange your cut outs how you want them on your frame. Once it’s hot, attach the cut outs to the frame with a small amount of hot glue.

To add a little flare to my mini clothes pins, I attached foam spiders to each pin using the sticky dot already on the spiders. If you find some of these cute little things that don’t have a sticky dot, or if the sticky dot isn’t sticky enough, you can use hot glue here too.

To get my photos a bit smaller than the standard printing size, I inserted the images all over a Word document page, then took my file to FedEx Office and printed them on thicker paper with their super duper color printer.

When I got home, I cut them out and clipped them to my new Halloween photo display!

Now I get to enjoy the memories of past Halloween fun all month long! My little girl who is 5 1/2 (she would be so mad if I didn’t say the 1/2 part) loves looking at the pictures too. I’m sorta impressed with how much she remembers about each year and it’s so much fun to reminisce with her.

15 minutes is all it takes to… Clean out a draw 15 minutes is all it takes to…  Clean out a drawer, a cabinet, or quickly flip through your closet and grab a small bag of items you don’t need or want…  …and the impact of 15 min. rapid fire decluttering sessions adds up quickly, even after just a couple days!  Last night I cleaned out two drawers while the oven was preheating for dinner (did you see me in action on stories?) They were two drawers near our drop zone where things started to get stuffed and one of the drawers I use daily since I keep my notebook with the weeks meal plan, to-do lists, etc so it was driving me nuts that it was getting to be a chaotic mess.  So I set my timer for 15 min. to tackle it and not only did I get that one drawer done, I got the drawer next to it done and everything that didn’t belong in the drawers put away in its proper place!  The moral of the story is, you don’t have to set aside entire afternoons to clear the clutter and get organized. It can be done ones 10-15 min. session at a time.  So that’s what I’m doing. I’ve committed to a short decluttering session every day for the next week or so.  Join me! Give me a thumbs up if you’re in!  #declutter #declutteringtips #decluttering #takebackmyspace #organizedspaces #organization #organizingtips #homeorganization #clearouttheclutter #cluttercontrol
Just when I thought I couldn’t take any more of Just when I thought I couldn’t take any more of what 2020 has had to offer it’s continued to come in full force. The Rona 😷 has officially infiltrated our home (my husband has it) which put me into panic mode 🥺 trying to get everything for Christmas totally ready and all my biz stuff wrapped up for the year knowing I’ll probably get sick too.⁠
⁠
Then to top it off something broke with our sprinklers in the front yard and they wouldn’t shut off. Thankfully I noticed right away and my amazing gardeners came over to help fix it but with the sun going down and not having all the parts they needed, and a bigger problem than we thought we have been without water. —They came back first thing this morning though (did I mention they’re awesome) and fixed everything up so I get to turn the water back on in about an hour and oh man is it going to feel good to take a shower (and a deep breath).⁠
⁠
So far me and the kids don’t have any symptoms so I’m staying focused and getting all my to-do’s done so I can go into next week ready to enjoy Christmas in total quarantine and have time to get sick if that’s what’s coming my way.⁠
⁠
It’s the weirdest thing to be planning to get sick, but it’s where I’m at! Hahaha!⁠
⁠
Hope you are all staying healthy (and sane)!⁠

Today I want to tell you why I started sticking to Today I want to tell you why I started sticking to a color palette in my own home.⁠
⁠
It wasn’t just because it allowed me to make quick decorating decisions, work with decor I already owned, and stay within my budget.⁠
⁠
✔️It's because color is the fastest way to create a look that flows from one room to the next and make my home feel really good.⁠
⁠
My home definitely didn’t get to where it is today overnight, but if I had to narrow it down to THE ONE THING that catapulted me in the right direction with my decor it’s when I finally figured out COLOR. ⁠
⁠
A thoughtful color scheme can create a nice flow from one room to the next, which is great, but color is also scientifically proven to affect your mood. ⁠
⁠
WHEN YOUR HOME FEELS GOOD, YOU FEEL GOOD!⁠
⁠
Let me ask you...👇🏼⁠
⁠
💭How do you currently feel in your home and how do you want to feel?⁠
⁠
Think about it for a second.⁠
⁠
💭Is the way your home feels now holding you back from the way you want to feel, things you want to do, or people you want to spend time with?⁠
⁠
I know there’s a bigger reason behind creating a beautiful home you love.⁠
⁠
And I bet it has nothing to do with impressing guests.⁠
⁠
Maybe for you it’s creating a space to really recharge, spend more time with family and friends, or to inspire more creativity.⁠
⁠
So what is it for you? Tell me in the comments.⁠

I read this morning that you are the culmination o I read this morning that you are the culmination of the 5 people you spend the most time with...⁠
⁠
...hmmm...does that mean I act like a 7 and 10 year old cause lord knows we've been together A LOT lately? 🤣🤣🤣⁠
⁠
But really, joking aside, are you intentional about who you surround yourself with?⁠
⁠
Do they light you up, inspire you, and teach you things?⁠
⁠
As uncomfortable as it is sometimes, I'm a huge fan of surrounding myself with those who know how to do things I want to learn. (And of course I'm a huge fan of spending time with people who I can share my know how with too.) ⁠
⁠
So now the question is, who are you becoming?⁠
⁠
Just something to marinate on today...⁠

My whys right there👆🏽 . We're evolving into My whys right there👆🏽 . We're evolving into a new phase where these two are helping out more and more around here and I'm loving that they take a certain pride in our space. ✨⁠
⁠
Of course we've got a set up that allows lots of play, messes, and "chill time" as my 7 year old calls it...⁠
⁠
...and although they may not be able to pin point it, I can tell that they too feel really good in our home and keeping it organized and feeling good, makes them feel good. ⁠
⁠
Creating a home you want to be in takes time, but with smart choices and a little patience it can happen.⁠

💖How do you want your home to feel?⁠
