Easy Last Minute Fall & Thanksgiving Ideas












Today I wanted to share a few easy last minute fall/Thanksgiving things. I can't believe Thanksgiving is Thursday! This fall has flown by! If you follow me on snapchat or Instagram you know that I had been dying to start decorating for Christmas, and this weekend we finally put up our tree. I had planned to put up the tree and gradually decorate the rest of the house, but once the tree was up, every single other decoration had to go up too (I just couldn't help it). I also said I would keep up a lot of my other decor and not switch everything to Christmas, but that didn't happen either. It's all Christmas everyone over here (but I LOVE it).
First, I wanted to share about this pumpkin.  I got these stick on decor pieces at Target. I actually picked them up because I didn't feel like carving another pumpkin, but I'm so glad I did. They are so easy to use and stick to any surface. They worked perfectly on the white pumpkin I picked up around Halloween. Now seeing how great it looks, I wish I would have used a fake pumpkin so I could keep it year after year. They've stuck great for weeks and haven't come off at all! 
Also, these leaf cookies are super easy to make and they are perfect for first time decorators.  If you aren't confident in your cookie decorating these are for you! All you have to do it pipe the royal frosting and then flip the cookies over into a plate full of colored sugar sprinkles. These pumpkins are a little more difficult, but perfect for any fall gathering or Thanksgiving dinner.
I'm so thankful for so much every year, but especially this year. I love taking the time around Thanksgiving to recognize all we have to be thankful for. 
Happy Thanksgiving week everyone!

XO,
