You Gotta Love Wal-Mart

look at this cute cupcake stand I found there last week for $5!

It was perfect for thee lemon-filled gingerbread cupcakes we made for the Holiday Open House! I don't know why, but the filling looks green in this photo and it was really a nice lemon yellow.

Here's a few pics of the ornments...

Some of the travertine coasters I made....

Here's another great find from Wal-Mart. I bought two of these 6.5 feet trees for $35! They will be going into the kid's bedrooms and the cottage . You can get them with clearn or colored lights. They literally snap together in about 5 minutes.

Everyone seemed to like the little snowshoe ornaments and they look good on the white tree and the traditional green tree.

Hope you are are enjoying your Sunday. Diane and I are starting to pack up the autumn decorations and prepare for Christmas decorating in a few days.

The kids are off school all week....so we will also be running interference with them and trying to avoid the constant "I'm bored" statements.

I'll keep you posted.
