Garland Party

The Nester http://nestingplacenc.blogspot.com/2008/12/your-garland-is-showing.html gave a tutorial a few weeks ago on how to create a fab garland. I was inspired to update the living room look.

I used a semi cheap pre-lit garland (half off at Lowe's and super skinny!!), another cheap garland from my collection and a really great garland on a twig base that I have used for fall decorating in the past.

I added star light covers that I found in the ornament box and 1/2 price berry twigs from Lowe's and some sparkly pieces.

I put my Longaberger Holiday baskets on the mantel with a collection of deer I have had since I was little and a collection of santas that we started when we first married.

I also added an old window. I think it may need a wreath or a swag on it. What do you think?

Virtual Uppercase Living Open House

We had our first Uppercase Living open house tonight. Welcome to the virtual portion of the open house. If you see something you like, leave me a message.

I made the "freedom" sign by staining a piece of barnwood with diluted navy blue paint. $15.00

The Trick or Treat plate is one of my favorites.
We sold the Love, Laughter, & Friendship plaque to our neighbors.
These pebble magnets are so fun. the magnet sets are $1 per letter.
The Joy frame set is perfect for up coming holiday decorating. $25.00
The Dream plaque is made on an artist canvas. I love the Play ball plaque, it's perfect for any little ball player.


After seeing all the white pumpkins this year, I had to make some. These turned out so cute. The orange Jack'0 lanterns are also Uppercase products.
