Can't wait for Halloween

18 years ago

I've been keeping an eye open for some candle holders to put some little pumpkins on for my mantle at Halloween. Look what I found! A set of three for $6.00 from GW--I think GW is a little higher than some of the others, but still cheaper than new would be. Got the dish for 69 cents, the covered jar for 99 cents and the glass for 99 cents. It's perfect to hold some of my paintbrushes. Anyone else done any shopping? Luvs

I did some shopping, no photos yet tho. My daughter drove me out to Hobby Lobby. Its just far enough, and so big to walk thru, that driving myself with my bad right leg (thank you Fibromyalgia) would have been really hard. I had a gift cert. left from XMAS for there. Oh, I could have spent FOUR times what I did. So many great garden statues at 50% off. I got one big rabbit, and two little ones. All are IN the house, LOL. Got a couple of July 4th things.
And actually got a few craft supplies. So I behaved rather well for someone who'd much rather go totally NUTS in that store. Especially as I'll probably not get back there till Fall holidays. Heard they are building another one, but it will be even farther away. Dang. Tho I suppose that is probably a GOOD thing in my case. I get in enough trouble at Michaels.

Luvs, those are terrific finds and at great prices. I especially like the lidded glass jar. There are so many varitions of those in the stores these days. I only have a couple but keep eyeing them up. If I could find them at a deal like yours, I'd have tons. Your candlesticks should come in handy for many holidays, not just Halloween - I'm not ready for that yet!

Karen, sounds like you got some great buys too. Would love to see a pic or two when you have them set up. Hope your fibromyalgia doesn't prevent you from playing with your new things.

Luvs, I love those candleholders. Know what would be super pretty - if you "glittered" your little pumpkins using the Martha Steward glitters. Check them out at Michaels. There is a real pretty orange. You can see them on her website. All it entails is brushing on the glue and sprinkling on the glitter.

That sounds like a fun idea Sal, adding a little glitz. I use the Diamond Dust on lots of things now and just love that. I'll have to look at the MS glitters next time I'm in Michaels. Luvs
