Make it Pretty Monday - Week 67

Hello World!  I've got a ton of stuff to do this week.  One of the items is to take pictures of the Fall decor I put out.  Mind you, I don't have a ton so it didn't take too long.  But, I just need time when I don't have the daughter here trying to photo bomb the pictures and it would be helpful to have the cats sleeping as well.  They seem to like to get in the pictures or they want me to love on them.  

Oh, and by the way, I made the Brat Rolls that Bethany from The Sepia Puppy shared with us last week for The Dedicated Husband's birthday party.  They were a huge hit. Anyhoo, on to the party.  Welcome to Week 67 of:

Make it Pretty Monday

    I haven't joined up for a while as I didn't have any original projects but joined up my guest bedroom makeover reveal today. I turned my previous studio into a really lovely guest room with a touch of Ralph Lauren's style.

    There are some fabulous ideas linked up today, I will have to spend some time later and visit some of the links.

    Gosh your parties are growing :)
