Football Wife Life: We Have Spirit!

Football season is in full force! We're heading in to our 3rd game of the season with a record of 2-0. We're off to a great start! 

Usually this time of year, I break out my fall decorations- my rule of thumb is to do it the first away game of the season, that way DJ doesn't have to be home to endure all the chaos that goes in to re-decorating for each season. This year, in our new house, I decided to change it up a bit. (I'm going to wait a little bit longer to break out the fall- probably the weekend of the 26th....) Rather than jumping in to fall, I thought it would be fun to decorate for that season right in between summer and fall. FOOTBALL.

I've mentioned before that I have this corner nook in our kitchen and I've had lots of fun using it as a seasonal decor spot. My original plan for this space was a baking nook, but it wasn't large enough, and it would be a great coffee spot, but we don't drink coffee. So, now it's just a happy spot that I can use for anything. 

It was decorated when we first moved in, and for back to school, and now it's all about football. 

I used crazy straws, you know since football season is crazy! Especially for us! A little helmet, a jar of blue tissue paper for our school colors, a little football bowl, football napkins, and then I did a little chalkboard sign dedicated to our team.

My mom picked up these football napkins for DJ.

We've had this football dish forever, and I've never been able to use it!

DJ got the little helmet from his convention one year. It's suppose to hold pens, but I thought it was fun for our kitchen decor!

On Pinterest, I also have some more fun ways to celebrate football!

And, if you're still looking for some cute football decor, check out these Etsy shops!

This football block set is super cute and would look great in the living room, on a dining table, or even in your little boy's bedroom!

And, I definitely need a Tulsa one of these!

I'd love to know how you celebrate your favorite team during football season!
