Susie QT got me obsessing about my (and others) blo molds yesterday -see her post yesterday! She scored some awesome blo mold Halloween items, so I thought I'd do a post about them and get everyone else obsessed! I love these things and can't have too many! I mean more is better, right? Just look at Magpie Ethel's Santas ...further down on page! What an impact! How happy to walk up on a porch and be greeted by all of her light up Santas, especially the one peeking out of the picture window !

Wish I had them for every holiday! I once had an Uncle Sam, and I sold him. I regret that now!! Show us your collection!

birds |

green beans | My flamingos have spilled out to the porch and the yard. I love my wooden planter, even though the legs need to be reattached. It's true..at the end of the day, there's no place like home. |
