Welcome to Saturday Snippets.....
Fall is my most favorite Season of the Year so this is definitely my happy time....
If you follow me on FB, you know that I decorated the front of my house for Fall this past Tuesday and did something a bit differently this year....
I will explain what I did differently, and why I did it ,along with sharing some of the other changes in a post next week, most likely on THURSDAY......
Two weeks ago, my son Joey, my sister Barb and I attended my church's Annual Cash Bingo......
We had a great time even though none of us won.....
It was a packed house as you can see.....
A meeting of the minds....
Father Alex and Rosemary , who is in charge of the Bingo's and a Craft Fair....
And I will be her co chairperson in October for the Harvest Tea which we are bringing back this year but doing totally different then it was done before..........
Stay tuned about that...
All the workers at the Bingo wore shirts that said the Ten Commandments of Bingo, including Father Alex....
Sorry, but I did not get a picture of what it said on the shirts but it was really cute.....
We have an extremely generous Parish as everything including all the Food , that sold out, the cost of each game which was $100, the Special games which were $400, $500, $700 and originally $1000 but a parishioner threw in an additional $200 making the last Special worth $1200!!!
I was very touched with how nicely the ladies in the office printed my donation of a game "In Memory of" Joe....
Ironically, it was game #12 and we were married on the 12th of August....
Joe and I met working at a Bingo and Joe
worked at last year's Cash Bingo and was supposed to be a Caller at the
Spring Purse Bingo but that was when he first became ill.....
The 50/50 Raffle was over $1200 so the winner of that received over $600!!!
The Cash Bingo was a HUGE success and made $18,000 for our Church!!!!
Yep!
You are reading that correctly.....$18,000!!!!!
The Purse bingo makes about $14,000!!!
Today, I will be sharing the Beverage area in my Kitchen which is now decorated in an Apple and Sunflower theme for Late Summer/Early Fall.....
I have to say that I love to decorate my Kitchen for the different Seasons and Holidays and I have really been enjoying this theme of Apples and Sunflowers........
The Kitchen has looked like this since the 3rd week of July when I changed it over from my Hens, Roos and Bees theme that I had for Spring /Early Summer.....
The color scheme in the Kitchen is red and yellow and I do love that color combination!!!!
Today, I will be sharing this area of my Kitchen where my Beverage area is located.....
I will start here in this corner.....
Keeping with the Apple theme, I embellished this sign from Dollar Tree last year....
I did do a little painting project.....
The wire tea cup, which was gifted to me by a friend, originally looked like this.....
I recently placed an order online at Micheal's using a coupon for 40% off total purchase of regular priced items....
This coupon was only good online but I was able to get store pick up so I went and got my order the following day..
Easy peasy...
Among the items that I ordered was a can of copper spray paint.....
Can you believe the difference????
It is so much brighter looking now....
It is a Hamilton Beach Brew Master and I keep buying this type when one dies.....
I have gone through maybe 3 of them in 30 years and I just brought a brand new one, that we bought a few years ago to have in case they discontinue them, home from my storage shed...
I always had copper in my Kitchen so I am thrilled that it is now back in style big time!!!
This is a Dollar Tree sign....
Next to the coffee maker....
I hung this Dollar Tree sign.....
On the shelf in front of the sign......
I hope you enjoyed seeing it....
I bought the Apple and Sunflower towel at Boscov's.....
As I mentioned before, I am loving how the Kitchen looks decorated in Apples and Sunflowers.....
Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!

I love your Autumn beverage bar. It is a little cooler here today and I am ready for beverage making in that cute little corner. Gosh, Bingo is popular at your church and so well attended! It looks like the group really has their act together between the bingo and the raffle and that everyone really enjoys themselves. No wonder it is so successful.
ReplyDeleteYour beverage bar is fabulous, Deb. I always enjoy dropping by for a visit. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. You give me so much inspiration. I have the sunflower sugar and creamer. I need to pull mine out after seeing yours. Enjoy your weekend. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are well. It's great that fall is here. You put together a darling drink station.
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie - your little kitchen nooks looks so festive and Autumn-y. I love all the bright colours. Your bingo outing sounds like fun - we have bingo at the seniors' centre near us and it's always overflowing with attendees. I've never played, but I'm sure it would be great fun once you get the hang of it. Maybe next year you'll walk off with a cash prize or two! Lovely that there was a game in memory of Joe - I'm sure he would have been smiling to see it.
ReplyDeleteLove the updated teacup planter. We are finally getting some nicer cooler temperatures, so your beverage corner would get lots of use now. I just did the sunflower and mums arrangement on my mantle, mote coming soon.
ReplyDeleteLinda,
DeleteThanks for taking the time to stop by!!
We ad a bit of hot weather but it is supposed to drop down into high's in the low 70's again for the rest of the week!!
Hugs,
Deb
Wow! Bingo is quite a success for your church as a fundraiser. My boys' private school used to have bingo nights to raise money but never that much. You kitchen has a fabulous autumn feel.
ReplyDeleteLove the fall decor! Thank you for stopping by The Really Crafty Link Party this week!
ReplyDeleteI love fall too: I just put out my decor this week and added some non fall yellow paper lanterns for my birthday. That was a successful bingo night for your church! What fun!
