I love the feeling of being home! I truly enjoy being surrounded by the people I love and the things that make me happy. I am passionate about finding joy in my home---which for me has a double meaning. My home is where I find comfort and discover who I am by using my talents and abilities.
I'm an avid thrift store shopper and collector. I love to create, re-purpose, design, re-invent and build all sorts of things.
I am passionate about helping others find the joy in their homes that I do in mine. And I believe that it doesn't take a lot of cash to do it.
"The more you trust and rely upon the Spirit, the greater your capacity to create." ---Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Hi Joy! As usual, everything looks so great! I love love love the display on your mantel! It looks just like a spooky graveyard! And that flying witch silhouette is very cool! I think I have the same two pumpkins with "spooky" and "boo" hanging on them but mine are orange. Did you paint them? Look forward to seeing the living room!
Tell us in your big hutch....with the "spooky and boo" punkins....what ARE those? They are so pretty. Candleholders that came like that or some cool Joy cr8tion
How stinkin' cute does that all look? I love it all especially your bookshelves. Really looks good. I almost bought that black witch with the moon thing at HobLob. I was just waiting for it to go down in price. I hope it is still there.
Fun! Fun! I love your spooky house and spooky trees. Did you make those or are they part of your "Fab Find" collection? I can't wait to see the living room! Fall is here - I'm SO excited!
I've been admiring your blog for months. Would you mind telling me what color paint/brand that is adorning the wall behind your mantle? It's so so beautiful!
Too cute! And I love the post on Friday! I saw an UGLY painting at a thrift store and walked on by! Oh, need to see if it's still there! Blessings, Susan
Oh I just love your mantel..I have one of those fences..but the center one is fab..and I love the trees..where did you get all of this yummy eye candy....very nicely done all of it!:)
Your guests must love comming to your house and seeing seasonal decor. I wish I had that much creativity! Not that many people make the seasons special like that.
Are those wrought iron gates on your mantle? Whatever they are, they are beautiful, in a spooky way! Do you always have them up there and just change the decor around them?
The mantle looks great decked out with spooky houses and trees. The iron piece behind it all is perfect. Reminds me of a gate on the grounds of a haunted house. I love the witch in the last picture. She's very cool. Have a great day Joy!
I just found your blog and it is so cute! I am going right out and making that cute BOO frame project. Your house looks so SPOOKY all dressed up for Halloween. ave a great day!
