Farmhouse Fall Decor on a Budget: Michaels Stores

 

Hello, Beautiful!

 

Let’s talk decorating for Fall in style – and on a budget – shall we?

 

 

My favorite go-to place for Fall decor – if I had to pick just one – would have to be Michaels. Now, every single year, Home Goods, Kirkland’s, and Hobby Lobby are no disappointment, either . . . but, Michaels tends to have the best sales at the most reasonable times, and that’s why it’s just a cut above in my mind (for Fall decor – we all know Hobby Lobby slays at Christmas with its eyes closed).

 

 

I’ve seen Hobby Lobby put out Fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving decor – and on major sale – in late July/early August before. It’s absolutely ridiculous, because there’s no way I can justify bringing home a sparkle pumpkin before we’ve even had Labor Day, let alone the kiddos of the world heading back to school. It’s too much, too soon.

But Michaels has had a major sale on its Fall decor for the past two weeks, ya’ll! Ya know, as in the first two weekends in September, when the weather cools just enough to finally feel like Fall and the women of the world begin to crave their fave Fall lattes. I’ve been in Michaels for the past 2 weekends in a row to pick a various odd and/or end, and I have been impressed by the sale both times, particularly the percentage off and the array of goodies it covers.

And when I say “major sale,” I mean it . . . 50% OFF ALL FALL DECOR AT MICHAELS. Run, don’t walk. Pumpkin spice up your life!

Hello, Beautiful!

 

This weekend I had the honor of co-hosting a bridal shower for one of my best friends (who also happens to be one of my bridesmaids and my ADPi little sis), Randi-Carole! She is going to make THE most beautiful bride in just 37 days (eek!) when she marries her soulmate, Josh.

RC was so sweet to offer to throw me a bridal shower BEFORE I was even engaged (like, the second I texted her that Thomas was acting funny, hehe), and I couldn’t wait to do the same for her! RC & I met in college in 2009 in Clarksville, TN, so it made sense for the showers we threw for each other to take place there. We each had our own hometown showers where we grew up, but we wanted to make sure we got to celebrate the moment with the ladies who’d been there for us throughout our college years and beyond . . . Lord knows we “kissed some frogs” back in the day, but I digress!
