With A Side of Jess: It's officially fall!

It's officially fall!

In case you missed it, fall officially started this past Saturday. That means that fresh apple cider, sweaters, my birthday and Halloween are all just around the corner! Fall is definitely one of my top favorite seasons for all of those reasons and more.

Another thing I LOVE about fall is decorating for all the holidays. It's all about bright colors - reds, yellows and oranges - for general fall themes and then even more colors - purples, silver and greens - for Halloween themes. The colors are amazing!

These glittered clothespins make great additions to any fall decor, be it for Halloween, Thanksgiving or just fall in general.


They're mini clothespins so they're great for tucking into other decor you already have and adding just a pop of shine and sparkle.



If a Halloween theme is more your thing, these are perfect too. And really, they could even be carried throughout the entire fall season with the orange and silver. They're mini clothespins as well, so perfect again for a little pop.

Looking for something a bit larger? These large glittered clothespins may be just the thing.



They're standard sized clothespins, but they're significantly larger than the minis. I call these my "Monster Mix" because they remind me of all the colors in the great Halloween monsters - Frankenstein, Dracula, witches, werewolves, etc.

If all this glitter and sparkle isn't quite your thing, Halloween colored crepe paper flowers are also available. They offer significantly less (read, none at all) sparkle - unless you want to design your own in which case they could - and can be used as anything from table decor to scrapbook embellishments.


This Halloween mix set is great for adding just a little extra something to your decor. The texture of the crepe paper adds interest as opposed to being just a flat, smooth paper flower and the colors really pop.



These are yet another example of the kinds of flowers that can be done in Halloween colors. I call this the pinwheel style because of the solid colored bottom layer - in this case white - and the 2-colored top layer - black and orange.

I hope you were able to get some great ideas for your fall decor!
