Wholesale-in’

While we were in Georgia, I spent a couple hours with my Aunt Kay and cousins; Becky, Krissy & Amy at Sims Wholesale Pottery. Aunt Kay & Krissy had to get a few more things for their fall decorations (they do the decorating at their church, businesses and their houses) and us other girls were along for the ride, hoping that some of their decorating abilities would inspire us while we were there! And who would pass up an opportunity to get to buy stuff at wholesale prices?!?!? Not, I.  :)

We only went into the main barn, but yall, I could have gone crazy. ESPECIALLY on the Christmas stuff. Since I had limited space on bringing stuff home, I knew I better focus on Fall and hope for another Georgia trip before Christmas! ha… (I can imagine what DW will say about that… the only GA trip I’ll be getting anytime soon is to Atlanta if the Gators make it to the SEC!) ha… I took a few pics with my phone… Here’s some of the Christmas that I loved. I didn’t get any pictures of the garlands and wreaths though, yall. Like the BIG thick beautiful green garlands for so cheap. I want to go back!!!!!! :)

There were rows and rows and boxes and boxes full of fall foliage. I’m not usually one who’s big on fake flowers, but there were some really awesome ones, and the key is knowing how to arrange them. I don’t. But, my Aunt Kay and cousin Krissy do--- so I bought the stuff they helped me pick out and hopefully it will come together! ha…

I wish all of you who love houses and home decor could see Aunt Kay & Krissy’s houses (really, all the girls)… yall, they AMAZING. And perfectly decorate for every season and holiday.

Back to the pottery…

Here’s a few more pics… We all loved that red pumpkin! Everyone got one except me. I was on limited space!!

  The Ribbon. THREE aisles of ribbon.

 

Christmas Ribbon

Have I mentioned I want to go back before Christmas?!?!?

That’s all the pics I took while we were there, but I did take some pics of what I got…

Thankfully, it all fit in one of the really long Rubbermaid containers…

This was the Fall stuff I got…

A few things up close: 

I loved this umbrella door bucket! This is what I’m doing on our front door for Fall, but thought it would be cute filled with other stuff throughout the year on the front door…

I loved this pre-arranged fall centerpiece. It was only like $6.00, yall!  

We all got one of these wreaths. The plan is to hang them with our fall ribbon on a mirror or window…

Speaking of fall ribbon. Here’s the two I got… Yall will hate me when I tell you the HUGE roll was like $9.00!

I found a few things for around the house year round, too…  somehow it all ended up being green. Ha…

My BFF will laugh at me for buying Curly Willow all the way up there, and dragging it 500 miles home… because one time she and I had gone to Market Days in Tallahassee and she’d bought some and lugged it around ALL DAY around the fair grounds and when we got to the car, I was like, “Carrie, you could buy that at Michaels!” Ha… This was lots cheaper, though, that’s why I hauled it 500 miles! ha..

The glittery stuff on the left, is what Becky, Amy, and I all grabbed after we saw Aunt Kay and Krissy buying it up! Ha… None of us were sure what we were going to do with it, but thought for sure we needed some if they did! Ha…

It was such a fun afternoon with the girls. I love them all so much.

I’ve been working on getting all the Fall stuff out around our house the past couple days, and working on putting together my new stuff!
