Christmas already...

It's funny I remember saying that for many years when you saw Christmas merchandise out in the stores right after Halloween.  But then I worked at Treasured Friends and realized they only have a limited amount of time to sell, therefore we began decorating and setting up for Christmas by November 1st.

Since the store has been closed a couple years now I had forgotten that routine until shopping today with my sister.  First I hit Audrey's Attic in Orrville, one of my favorite places to shop since Treasured Friends closed.  I found out about it through Nicole. 

I was inspired the moment I walked through the door.  I picked up several things there - I'll have to take pictures of later. I could have walked around in a daze for hours, but then I was off to meet up with my sister for lunch.  After lunch we went into Petitti's and Oh my!  It really got me excited about decorating for Christmas (even though I just can't believe its right around the corner?)

I loved these snowflake cookie plates, I might need to head back for them

And I loved this tree that was done with everything you can think of to do with wine.  There were little wine bottle ornaments, wine glass ornaments and everything in between.

and one of my favorite things there was this table which was decorated so beautifully and had a round piece of glass held up by clear jars filled with ornaments, so cute!

But the real reason I went to Petitti's was to pick up bulbs to plant before the weather got ugly this weekend...
