Comments (9)Jenn, I have three TS in about a three mile radius of each other. The biggest one is my fav, but the other two often get some good things in. The mgr at the smallest one always puts the holiday things in a special display area. I really like that, makes it easy to see what's available. Let me tell you, there were lots and lots of those plastic pumpkin pails! LOL I always look for craft/decorating books and have found some good ones from time to time. My last two trips I've found these notebooks with the project cards in them. They are those big 3 inch notebooks. I remember when I used to get offers in the mail to sign up for them. You then would get different sets of project cards until you filled your notebook up. These actually have some really cute ideas in them. The first one was only $1.98 and the one yesterday was $3.00 with 30% off of that, so fun to read even if I never make a single project out of it! LOL I only started checking out the TS last year when I found the Garden Junk forum and wanted glass items to make those totems. Now I am hooked on checking them. Like a treasure hunt, sometimes I find nothing, but usually I find something I can sand and repaint, or glassware pieces I can use, or a picture/frame I really like. Judith, the pumpkin jar is a nice heavy one, and it was only $1.48. Can't beat the price and after a good washing in the dishwasher, it is just like new! ;o) (I do have to tell you that I hate the smell in the stores--does that make me a snob? LOL What's that smell from anyway? Surely people do not donate clothing without washing it first, so where does the odor come from? Inquiring minds wanna know!)

Comments (11)Are you a long lost relative I don't know about, Sue? LOL I'm a crazy, Christmas decorating 'junkie' too. I won't be home for Thanksgiving(NC), but will start with the decorating just as soon as I return. My big 10' tree will be in the LR, with a small 5' in the sitting room off the kitchen, a 5' on a landing going upstairs, 5' in the DR, 3' on DR table, 3' in powder room vanity, and a 2' in each BR~have I left out any?LOL The big one in the LR is decorated with *pink* lights, and ornaments that *must* have pink on them, pink balls, irridesent icicles/snowflakes, and I made at least a hundred beaded tastles out of pearl/irridesent madigras beads. I also started collecting ballerina ornaments a few years ago~I had lessons in 'pointe' for many years, and still hang my shoes on the tree. I've been doing the pink for at least 30 years, and my grandchildren, even the oldest ones, are always excited to see 'Grandma's big, pretty tree'. The one in the sitting room became my tribute to Katrina, decorated in madigras beads of lime green, purple, and turquoise. It has a madigras mask as a treetopper with peacock feathers. Ornaments are in the same colors, but NO solid color is used. They're differed designs~stripe, dots, zig-zags~and shapes. Being my powder room is a deep red, I use leopard print ornaments on the little tree. It's a 'small room with a lot of interest', so I need an interesting tree. LOL The one up on the landing is all sparkly in golds, white, and seashells. Dr table gets deep red ornaments. Bigger one in DR corner is bronze/gold. MB is irridesent white, but i'm looking for sparkly black ornaments. 2nd BR is monkey/tropical ornaments. I use the electric candles in all the windows, wreaths on the ouside front door, as well as the inside. Mantle, mirrors, chandliers, tables, armoire, hutch, desks, are also 'adorned' in Christmas finery. My legacy to my children is to continue the tradition of Christmas being all about family, and part of that is a beautiful decorated 'Christmas home' that feels cozy, and the smell of good food coming from the kitchen. ALL my children 'show signs' that's it working! ;o)...See Morefall and halloween decoration
Comments (5)Hello Friends: Where we live, the weather has already 'turned'! We are getting frost here almost every night now and the geese are flying south so winter is on it's way! Since our Thanksgiving is sooner then yours, I do a 'Fall' decorating first..which I am in the process of doing now and then much like Monique, I begin decorating for Halloween after October 1rst. My problem is, if I decorate too far ahead at Halloween, I find my things 'spring legs' and walk out of our yard! Della...See Morevicsgirl
