Be Thankful....

We are very thankful to all...
 our Customers, Family and Friends...

who have stuck by us during these growing years.  Every year at Thanksgiving, we sit at a table that is decorated with turkeys made out of hands, pinecone turkeys and pilgrim hats.

  Here's a great new idea for the "Tween" table or any table throughout the house...

We found this great idea on www.sweetcitycandy.com and you can also visit www.HostessBlog.com on the how-to for this Mod Table Tree!

Enjoy!

Last Minute Halloween Decorations

via Pottery Barn

Break out the Christmas Ornaments.. why keep them in storage?.. create a tray in the foyer or as a centerpiece...

via BHG

via The Seasonal Home

From our friends at A Seasonal Home... they suggest taking a styrofoam wreath, add black toothpicks and hot glue small glass ornaments and add a bow... wah-lah... 

Unless I come across some other GREAT examples of decorating for Halloween... I promise I am going to move on to Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Our first container is coming in tomorrow and we will be crazy getting out the most anticipated orders to all our customers over the next few days.  Then my mind will be 100% Christmas-thinking....Be aware... Christmas is only 66 days away!  Lots to do!

On October 31, 2011 ~  we are going to be launching a Holiday Display Contest using The Whitehurst Company's products.  Stay tuned for more details... very exciting stuff!!!
Have a great weekend!
