Retail and Holiday Decorating

Ran into the hardware store with Bella for Duck Tape. 

There are a lot of uses for duck tape, like trying to tape a cone back together (cone of shame for a puppy) that "someone" wiggled his way out of and chewed.  We won't mention your name, Pippen.  Don't worry, your secret is safe here.

As we were waiting in line to pay for the tape, I noticed that they have a couple of Thanksgiving decorations out.  Yes, it's September.  And, yes, Halloween is still 6 weeks from now, which makes Thanksgiving 10 weeks from now?

Thanksgiving is usually a holiday that doesn't have much decorations to it.  Some turkeys, pumpkins, cornucopia's.  Small decorations for the inside of your house.  Some retail stores just bypass the holiday all together and go from Halloween to Christmas.  I think Thanksgiving is a forgotten holiday.

Apparently at the hardware store (and possibly other stores) this is not the case.  I found a couple of items that you can put out and light up your front yard for this big November day.

Your very own lighted Turkey

and a Lighted Maple Leaf

So, finish up making your hand turkeys (the ones that you draw an outline of your hand) and head on over to your local hardware store.  These are just perfect for your fall/Thanksgiving outdoor decorating needs. 

Let's bring back Thanksgiving!
