…that looks FANTASTIC and won’t break the bank! The holidays are upon us, and we took a few fun hours this week to get the house looking festive for fall. The essential ingredient to home decorating for the holidays, is to save and store what you buy over the years, use what you already have on hand, add some on-sale items, candles and bows you’ve saved from earlier in the year, and of course: GOURDS! Here at Practically Perfect Planner, we love...
