First of all, I just have to say that I am soooo excited that my husband is coming home tomorrow! I have missed him so much. Although he will be home for less than 24 hours before heading out again for a conference down in Georgia, I am happy to see him for just a little while until he is back for good this weekend :) I realize, sometimes even more when he is gone, that I really am married to my best friend in the whole world. But anyway, my post is not going to be all about how in love I am :) Since I was home by myself tonight, I decided to add a little fall decor to my house and do a little craft that I found on Pinterest a few weeks ago. I have been wanting to do this the last few weeks, but the 80 degree temperatures have kept me from fully embracing fall. It is still too hot to even sip on a pumpkin spice latte! I am not usually one to complete about hot days, because I LOVE summer and I love hot weather, but since it is October, I am kind of ready for fall weather. I'm ready for those jeans-and-hoodie-nights while watching football, bonfires, pumpkin spice lattes, boots and scarves, just to name a few ;) So, I decided to go ahead and do some decorating and fall crafting tonight to see if that would help me get in the "fall mood." Here are some pictures from my night...

| Started with some plain ol' bottles... |
 |
| ...and some paint. |
 |
| I painted the letters on with stencils. |

I have had this bundle for a few years and never really known what to do with it.
That is originally why I loved this little project when I saw it on Pinterest. |

| The mess I made in the process :) |

| The finished product :) I was pretty excited with how it turned out! |

Hope you are enjoying the beginnings of fall! :)
Cute idea!
