Post-Halloween / Pre-Christmas Decorating

November.  She's that in-between month.  There is no snow on the ground and I come from the land where snow lands on Thanksgiving.  Canadian Thanksgiving.  That's in early October.  But now I live in the land where snow might fall by Grey Cup (American Thanksgiving) or maybe by Christmas and it's the wet, non-pretty variety.  So, how to decorate?  Is there any point in putting up a Christmas tree yet? Nope. So, what's a girl to do?


Hideaways?  Me thinks me love.

Perhaps more tropical than we can hope for in November, but why not reach for the stars?

Cute little mini-cottage. This reminds me of the playhouse my dad and grampa built me with its dutch doors. How cute with books piled up to the rafters.

A great spot to stash a bed and create an instant hideaway.

What girl wouldn't love this spot?  Just guessing, or fantasizing here - but, do you think you can hide things in those stairs?

Every attic hideaway deserves a chandelier!

I'm a little torn with this one.  Part of me is oddly creeped out that a kid would want to go in there and play.  While the other half of me says, what kid wouldn't want a secret hideout to go in and play in?  I just don't see a door handle on the inside of those rather large closet doors.  Sorry, I think this might be an epic fail.

This is my favourite.  So easy.  So doable.  Seems to me I've seen this done in my own kitchen!
