It's that time of year!!!!

Hello everyone!  I hope you are all having a fabulous Saturday!
We are sure staying busy working on our house.  It seems like
that's all we did all summer and it made the months go by extra
fast.  In May we were praying for no more SNOW!!!  No we
just hope it starts to get cooler... 
Anyways, I get so excited every Labor Day because I start
to decorate for Fall and Halloween!  Early- I know...  This is
my FAVORITE time of year!!!! 
I am extra excited because EAD Designs has the CUTEST
vinyl decals ever!  Great for your fall crafting projects.  I seriously
want EVERYTHING in the store! 

I wanted to kick off this month with a fun and easy fall craft using
a tile.  You can pick up these tiles for under $1 at almost any home
improvement store.

I simply cleaned off the tile- making sure there was no more dust
and dirt on it so the vinyl will stick well.

I added some fabulous vinyl from EAD Designs found here:

and tada:


I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!  I am so 'thankful' for EAD Designs!
