Nearly gave myself a heart attack the other day. Sure there were great big Christmas in July celebrations at all my favorite crafty places, but then some folks started to release fall items.

Now, in my head, Halloween comes before fall. Fall things are Thanksgiving things. Maybe living in Phoenix the vast majority of my life has left me out of the whole fall starts in September thing, but I make no apologies for beginning my Halloween decorating in September, maybe August, rarely July, unless there’s a sale.

Either way, I ended up visiting my favorite small online businesses for paper crafting items. Fall themes filled the new release pages, but I managed to find a few Halloween items in the end.

Until next time, stay crafty:D
