Splish Splash, its Halloween

It is no surprise to anyone who knows me just how much I love Fall. It seems now that I have two children, each Holiday Season seems to start earlier each year. I love to watch the excitement in their eyes as they help me decorate. Although, having two children makes finishing decorating anything take a little longer, so we are slowly "doing up" the front door to celebrate the season. Aside from the pompom wreath from hell adorning our door, I changed out our no soliciting sign to match the season.


And of course, since I needed a little symmetry in the first stages of my Fall decor, I whipped up another sign for the palm tree next to the front door.


Of course, before all of this Halloween/Fall/Orange crafting took place, I finally got to a bathroom project for the kids. I am sure if you have browsed through Pinterest at all, you have seen these beautiful aluminum letters found in various stores. 



I actually bought a few for our kitchen. Then I realized what a bitch it was going to be to hang them since 90% of our walls are brick. 

In comes the many years of training while working in the Art Department for various TV shows and voila. You have this which was simply hung by 3M double stick tape.



Cardboard letters for $1 each at the craft store and spray painted with grey primer, flat black and chrome paint. I love the look and living in earthquake country, I am no longer worried about them hurting anyone or anything if they were to fall.
