Happy Halloween!
Itās been a crazy busy season here at Le Maison Folleā (our home in Yucca Valley, California) but I managed to put together a little Halloween House Tour for you. No new decorations this year except the creepy big voodoo doll on the voodoo altar, which I made using a childās mannequin, a burlap coffee bag, skewers, buttons and hot glue. Enjoy!

Turning Halloween into Thanksgiving: Getting Double-Duty out of thoseĀ Pumpkins
A healthy pumpkin or gourd can last MONTHS! I love decorating with pumpkins every Fall. They look great from October first through November 26th. I just rearrange them after packing up the Halloween decorations. After Thanksgiving what doesnāt get turned into pies and breads can be composted or fed to goats and piggys. Biodegradable eco-friendly decor! This year Iām being really lazy (well lazyā¦

Bathroom Remodel!
This project has been a long time coming, and honestly went way over budget, but Iām so happy with how it turned out. In an effort to save some cash, we did not move any of the fixtures, and for the color scheme I designed around the existing (and still very nice) blue washer and dryer. As is most always the case with big projects, there were unforeseen circumstances, like the sub floor having toā¦

8 New Succulent Planters for $0 (From 3 Old Overcrowded Ones)
Hello Spring! Itās finally warm enough to move the plants back outdoors, and Iāve been dying to divide 3 old succulent planters that were very leggy and overgrown. Succulents are easy as pie to grow and divide up into many new plants. (Side note: āeasy as pieā? anyone who has baked pies knows they are not so easyā¦or maybe they mean they go down easy, which is so true š

Very simple but pretty DIYā¦Iāve had the 2 two beautiful gold frames (both found years ago at yard sales) that are odd sizes which are challenging to find art for.

I attached it to the gold frame with fine copper wire (justā¦

I started with a hardbound artist sketch book, but you could use any old hardbound book. The thrift store would be a great place to find one.
