Fall Favorites Swap Reveal!

Another Fall Favorites Swap with the hosts Holly from A Cajun Belle, Melanie from Fashionably Forty, and J from An Unstyled Life! This Fall Favorites Swap was similar to the other, where we got to know our partners and then send them some fall themed things - it could have been nail polish, pumpkin something, candles, scarves, pictures, ANYTHING that was fall related.

Well, I got partnered up with the amazing Micah, who blogs over at Unabashedly Me. First off, let me tell you that this woman is talented. And I mean TALENTED. She is a writer and has 3 books that have been published. I'm making it a goal of mine to read them by the time the year is over. AKA by December 31st. Anyways, she's so sweet and fun and caring and she sent me the most amazing things in relation to fall.

(Don't mind Jess... he wanted to be in the picture, too!) 

Micah sent me some Dunkin Donuts French Vanilla coffee (MMMMM), Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin lotion/body scrub, and two of my fav smelling candles - leaves & pumpkin cupcake. YUM.

She also sent me a pumpkin plate that broke... STINKIN' POST OFFICE!! And a bag of candy.... which I ate. I know, I know... couldn't help myself! I needed chocolate and that's what she sent so it was PERFECT.

Micah, thank you SOOO much. You are an amazing swap partner and an amazing person in all. Thank you for everything!!

As always, if you're EVER asked to do a swap or have the opportunity.. do it. You never know who you'll meet or connect with.

Have a good day, y'all!

Fall Into Fall Swap

Another swap :) Can ya tell I love these things?! This time, the swap was a "Fall Into Fall" swap that Neely from A Complete Waste of Makeup, Erin from Everything According to Erin, and Tracy from Then I Got To Thinking hosted! The goal was to send some things that remind you of fall to your swap partner. Well, I was paired up with Nicole from The Southbay Newlyweds Plus One. And before I continue, you should probably go check out her blog AND her abso-freaking-lutely adorable baby boy, Andrew. Anyway, she found out what I liked and man, did she do good! We all know I love crafts (Monday Made It, anyone?) and that I love cards/stationary/etc.

So, Nicole got me a Days-To-Remember Calendar where I put in my own months and days with either stamps, stickers, etc. to remember days like birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, and other important dates! How cool is that? Along with that, she got me some stickers - not sure if this is what she intended them for, but each sticker is going to represent something in the calendar (blue = birthdays, yellow = anniversaries, etc.). I LOVE THIS, NICOLE!

Then, she also got me a Michaels gift card (YES!), a pack of Halloween cards, Bath & Body Works nail files (which has a glare.. I apologize), a hand sanitizer rubber thing to hold my hand sanitizers from Bath & Body, and a cute card. In that card, she gave me a little note to let me go buy my own hand sanitizer because she was not sure how it would ship! Nicole, I love your creativity :) And that's my Fall Into Fall Swap with the fantastic hosts and an amazing swap partner! Nicole, you did an amazing job and I absolutely love EVERYTHING you got for me. You knew me like the back of your hand and I surely hope you liked what I got you! In order to see what I got Nicole, head on over to her blog to check it out :)
 Like I've said on all my other posts, if you EVER get the chance to do a swap (no matter what kind), DO IT. You never know who you will meet, nor do you know what you will get. It's all a surprise, and I absolutely love it! Have a good day, y'all!

EXTENDED FALL SALE - 20% Off!

Hi all! I have extended my sale in my TPT store to today. I could NOT, no matter what I did, get things to upload to TPT. So, I came to the library today to use their Internet and voilà, it works!

So, I've got a few products that are new - all within the same fall theme. First, I've got my Fall Themed I Have, Who Has? math games!

I have each file individually for sale for $1.50 each. I think this is well worth the money because of the amount of effort and work I put into making each file fun and attractive!
Click each picture below to be taken directly to the page where it is for sale!

BUT, if you would rather get the bundles (two different bundles for $2.50 each, a total of $5.00) and save $1.00 total, you could do that, too! Please click HERE and HERE for those bundles.

I also added a FREEBIE (this will last a week - until next Monday - grab it while you can!) titled Fall Themed Even and Odd Sort. After this week, it will go back up to the price of $1.50!

DON'T FORGET! The giveaway ends on Wednesday & the sign-up for the Ohio Blogger Meet-Up is still going strong! Even if you cannot attend, please sign up to have your name put on the list we will distribute to all who attend and those who cannot attend (through e-mail)!

 

I hope y'all enjoy the new products and have a fantastic week!

127 Yard Sale Finds & Sunday Social

Hi y'all! I'm back with a definite picture overload! Just a forewarning :)

I'm linking up with a different kind of linky party... called the Sunday Social! It's hosted by Ashley & Neely at their blogs, Ashley's Carnival Ride and A Complete Waste of Makeup - make sure you go to both of their blogs & check them out... link up while you're there!

With this linky, there are questions you answer. The topic for this week's Sunday Social is FALL! I absolutely LOVE fall and it's my favorite season out of all the seasons. You'll see why :)

1. What is your favorite fall activity?
My all time favorite fall activities are watching football games, snuggling under a warm blanket watching movies (especially holiday movies!), Trick or Treating, and all kinds of other fall things!

2. Do you follow a football team? If so, which one and why?
I surely do! For pro, I follow my Vikings - always have, always will. Why? I'm not sure... I guess when I was little, I really liked the horn on their helmets and they just stuck! For college, I follow my Bearcats. Why? That's my alma mater (so weird to say that!).

3. What is something fun about Fall in your area?
In our area, there's LOTS of different haunted houses. Kings Island is our big one - they've got the Halloween Haunt where you can still ride many of the amusement rides, but there's also scary stuff!

 

4. Favorite fall outfit staples?
I looove big, comfy, oversized sweaters and my sweatpants. I love being able to curl up in the big clothes on a cool, Fall night! I also like my boots and my jeans.

5. Thing you are looking forward to most about this coming Fall season?
I cannot wait for the holiday movies to start in November! I love that time, and I love the smell of fall. The bonfires, the leaves falling, the pumpkins. I cannot wait to be able to taste some delicious pumpkin pie! I'm also going to carve pumpkins this year and put them on the porch with candles inside. And I'm going to decorate our house since I'm home for it this year :)

6. Favorite fall holiday? Traditions?
I absolutely LOVE Thanksgiving. The time where you can pig out with no regrets because you want everything anyway! :) I also love seeing the little ones dress up for Halloween. We don't have many traditions besides going shopping on Black Friday and having Thanksgiving at someone's house!

Go link up with these ladies - such a cute idea for a linky!


127 YARD SALE
Sorry I lied - I didn't post yesterday about my 127 Yard Sale finds, BUT today, I am posting about them! They're probably not real huge deals to you all, but I absolutely love what I bought and I am so happy with my purchases!


First up, I bought two different stools! Why two? Well, the green one is going to be sanded down and then painted black with all sorts of bright, fun colors - on the top (the stool part), it's going to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY! This is going to be my birthday stool in the classroom. Special stool, basically! The blue stool is going to be painted over with a similar blue, and turned into my teacher stool. I'll sit on it for various things, but it's going to be decorated to suit me! These were a total of $18.00 for both.


And then I bought this basket for some reason - what am I going to use it for? The possibilities are endless! I'm not exactly sure.. I just really liked it! This was $1.00.

Then I found these two festive things! I love the holidays... especially Christmas. If it was in the Fall rather than Winter, I would absolutely, 100%, no doubt love Winter simply for that fact. Anyway... I bought the Happy Holidays to hang on my classroom door when it comes around to that time - I bought the Santa starfish ornament for my first Christmas tree. Plus, how could I pass him up? He's WAY too cute. This was a total of $1.00 for both.

I also got these craft sticks... not sure what for, but I'm sure I can use them for something! I also bought the beachy sign... I think I'll hang it up by my desk when I'm teaching so that way I can think of the beach when I get stressed! This was a total of $5.50 for both.

I bought the shutter (first picture) to do some sort of art project. I REALLY liked the flag I found on Pinterest (that links to Mamie Jane's site here), so I may try to duplicate that! 

So, that's what I bought!! Below are just a few extra pictures from the trip...

We drove through some CRAZY rain. On the way into Florence, KY, there was this rainbow in the sky! I had to take a picture.. of course.

 We also drove past this HUGE castle. Momma said they hold Renaissance Festival type things here.. but I'd prefer to live there :)

The 127 Yard Sale is SUCH a long yard sale, and there's a TON of junk... but I recommend everyone do it at least once. You never know what you'll find!!

MONDAY MADE IT
Below are two things for my Monday Made it Tomorrow - I haven't done anything with them.. so they're very plain - but, what do you think I'm making them into?!? Guess you'll have to come by tomorrow to see!

Remember to check out my Giveaways page up above - I update it every day!

See y'all tomorrow!
