It's never too early to start your fall decorating
We’re getting closer to my favorite time of year ... fall. Since I’ve had enough of this summer heat, I am highly anticipating the change of seasons.
This weekend I’ve been doing some deep cleaning at home. Hockey season is approaching, and this means we won’t be spending much time at home. So, I decided to get cleaning and this way I can keep up with maintaining a somewhat organized household during this busy time.
You know sometimes when I get in one of these cleaning moods, it inspires me to want to make some changes. With fall on its way, I’m thinking a little painting may be in order. I noticed on the front page of the Redplum insert, Sherwin-Williams has 30 percent off paint through Sept. 6. I’m looking for a new color for the master bedroom.
While in Lake Geneva, Wis., recently, I was in a home décor shop. The designer in this shop was telling me that yellows and grays are the hot colors right now in decorating.
When making these changes in my home, I need a starting point – a color inspiration. Target has 8-piece bedding sets for $59. This sounds like a good place to start.
I also decided to pull out my fall decorations. With a three-day weekend coming up, it’ll be a good time to work on getting that chore done.
This week’s Michaels ad has fall florals and Halloween décor on sale. It’ll be a good time to replenish any items that have seen better days.
If you have any fall decorating ideas on a budget, I’d love to hear from you. I’m always looking for new and different ways to bring this season into my home.
Also, make sure you go through your coupons today. There are three inserts in the Journal-World. This is a good week to replenish on your savings.
