Welcome To The 43rd Masterpiece Monday

Hi!

I finally decorated "Old Rusty" for Fall, and I must say it was pretty fun! I again used some graphics from the Graphics Fairy and more glitter. I love glitter.



For those of you who new to my blog, "Old Rusty" is my retired fireplace.
But I love decorating him. And I like his rustiness. This year I used a lot of bird decor. I love birds, too.
I can't own any though, because I have four cats. I just think it would cause too much drama.
So, I live vicariously through crafts.
This a graphics Fairy crow I Modpodged onto a spaghetti jar and glittered to use for a votive holder. You can't see the glitter very well, but it's there!
I really love the feather from the GF, you can see the glitter in this one.


My "Harvest Moon" and owl jar.(also the Background Fairy)  There is glitter on both of these too but you can't really tell......
I made this banner out of black vinyl and twine.


My baby owls I bought at Target last year after Christmas, they 50% off and I've been waiting all year to use them for Fall.



I collect Audubon bird pictures and these are just few I love to use for Fall.


I'm linking to Brag Monday at The Background Fairy and Well Made Wednesday at An Oregon Cottage

    This most certainly is one of the best fall vignettes I've ever seen! Mr. Rusty must be proud. Of course, with a blog name like Moonbeams and Fireflies, it's only natural I'm partial to the sweet old Man in the Moon.

    Lovely decorations. I just found the most delicious gold mercury glass votive holders at Michaels. They are for Christmas but I can't wait to get back there with more coupons.

    Wow -- I love that! Loads of great ideas right in one spot. Halloween has never been my forte -- I don't like gruesome and I don't like orange much -- your "look" is perfect!
