I really like those Hay & Harvest wreaths/garlands. I have two front doors so I resisted on the wreath. Although I could probably put one wreath elsewhere inside.

The harvest one was really pretty and elegant looking, but I couldn’t help wanting the Halloween one. Colors really popped! But it wasn’t practical enough to get for $60. I decorate more for harvest with only a few Halloweeny items.

@crazycockermom - I can see how that particular wreath might be a little much for two front doors! You are lucky to have them! I'm sure you'll find wreaths that look beautiful side by side.

I never intended to get a harvest wreath, because I already have one, but the squirrel sold me! LOL!

I made our Halloween wreath over twenty years ago, and we still put it up. But I was tempted by that one too!

@JudyL - You will have so much fun putting it around! I will too! I usually wait until after Labor Day - not sure I'll make it this year! LOL!

I can't wait to sit here at night when the house is quiet and look at those pretty pumpkins on our mantel!

Let us know how you put everything around when you get everything!
@beach-mom - I am looking forward to having all the candles on. Just not lookng forward to buying all the batteries!

@JudyL

I second buying batteries from Amazon. They do have sporadic pricing just like many of their items so it's good to look thoroughly.

They have a Panasonic C Battery 24 pack for $19.64, .82 each which is lower than their Amazon Basic
C Batteries.

They are in retail 2 pack packaging which I actually like/

Well, I certainly made up for missing the beginning of this!

Valerie's 10 p.m. show has been fun! I bought the harvest wheat teardrops. I also added the Hay and Harvest shatterproof harvest wreath. I thought it was different and will look nice on our front door.

It's interesting how I try to decide on something, then something else comes on and I don't even think twice!

@beach-mom I bought the teardrops also to go with the brancheslomg stems of the same bought at zulily a year or so ago, they look great in vases along with other branches/stems.

As much as I thought they were beautiful, I did not order Valerie's recent Starry Night pumpkin TSV & matching gourd.

I have a small house & have so many gorgeous things from years past, so I try to pick one (two ???) new items & limit it to that. Of course, that almost never works LOL!!! Great in theory though!

This year I picked Val's checked & embossed pumpkin set & I must say I am VERY IMPRESSED.

Nice weight, nice coloring, nice texturing........

Decent size but not too, too big.

Great together in a grouping or separate.

They are sold out now. Hopefully, more will come in but I realize probably not this year.

Choice of black, green or orange.

I had a tough time choosing but I ordered the orange.

Anyone else order these beauties???

All my Fall purchases have arrived and I am so impressed. Love the Starry Night Hurricanes so much that I'm thinking of ordering a set for a friend for her birthday as she loved mine. The wreath is so gorgeous and I love it! Looks great on my door. I put my wreaths on the insde of my front door so I can see and enjoy them. The 4 pumpkin pics are fabulous! The quality of everything is excellent. Still waiting for the lanterns which were on an advanced delivery.
