5 Fall Decorating Ideas

Fall is a beautiful time of year at the Lake of the Ozarks! The trees are changing color, brightening the already gorgeous scenery the Lake area has to offer. Why not bring some of that beauty into your home at the Lake of the Ozarks?  Check out these fun Fall decorating ideas below:

1. Door Wreaths 

Fall door wreaths can be made out of many different materials.  From colorful leaves and flowers to pumpkins and Indian corn, you can make wreaths out of just about anything!  Pick your items, hot glue them together, maybe add a ribbon bow and voila, you have a wreath!

2. Paint Gourds

Instead of setting out a bowl of fresh fruit, consider using dried gourds.  Get the gourds in various sizes and then paint them to give them some color.  Dip one end into the paint and then turn it over to let the paint run down the other end for a dripping effect.

3. Monogram Pumpkins

Pumpkins are used a lot when it comes to Fall decorating.  They make great entry way decorations or even work as a center piece.  You could carve a face in them to make a Jack-O-Lantern, but why not try something that's not just focused around Halloween. Instead, you can monogram them.  Etch your monogram into different sized pumpkins with different fonts and styles.  Then you can paint them to make the letters pop. If you'd rather not etch them, you can just use paint to create the letters.

4. Fill Clear Containers

Clear glass containers are great for decorating any time of the year.  You can switch out the contents to go with the season.  Popcorn kernels, candy corn or fall colored stones are perfect items to fill your clear containers in the Fall.  You could also add a candle to the center to make it glow!

5. Photo Holders

Insert wire into walnuts or mini pumpkins to create fall themed photo holders! You can even add some flair by painting the pumpkins or walnuts and tying a small ribbon onto the wire.

27 Tips for Fire Prevention Week

Did you know that each year more then 2,500 people die and 12,600 are injured in home fires in the United States?  Direct property loss due to home fires is estimated at $7.3 billion annually. Home fires can be prevented though!  Help us celebrate Fire Prevention Week by checking the smoke detectors in your home at the Lake of the Ozarks and using these other fire prevention tips below!

History of Fire Prevention Week 

Fire prevention week was established to commemorate the Great Chicago Fire in 1871.  This tragic fire killed more than 250 people, left 100,000 homeless, destroyed more than 17,400 structures and burned more than 2,000 acres.  The fire began on October 8, but ended up doing most of its damage on October 9.  This is why since 1922, Fire Prevention Week has been observed on the Sunday through Saturday period in which October 9 falls.

Great Chicago Fire Myth

Photo Courtesy of GreatChicagoFire.org

Legend says that the Great Chicago Fire broke out after Mrs. Catherine O'Leary's cow kicked over a lamp, setting fire to the barn and then spreading throughout the city.  You've probably heard some version of this story as people have been blaming Mrs. O'Leary for more than 130 years. The story does have some truth to it.  The fire did start near the barn where Mrs. O'Leary kept her milking cows.  However, there is no proof that O'Leary was in the barn when it started or that a jumpy cow sparked the flame.

Fire Prevention Tips

Most home fires occur in the kitchen while cooking and are the leading cause of injuries from fire. Other common causes include carelessly discarded cigarettes, sparks from fireplaces without screens or glass doors and heating appliances left too close to furniture or other combustibles.

Cooking

• Stay in the kitchen while cooking.  If you need to leave the room even for a short period of time, turn the stove off.
• Wear short, close-fitting or tightly rolled sleeves when cooking. 
• Don't cook if you're sleepy, have been drinking or have taken medication that causes drowsiness. 
• Keep children away from cooking areas. 
• Position BBQ grills at least 10 feet away from siding and deck railings. Also keep them out from under eaves and overhanging branches. 

Smoking 

• Smoke outside and put your cigarettes out in a can of sand. 
• Make sure the cigarette is completely stubbed out in an ashtray.
• Soak cigarette butts in water before tossing them out. 
• Never smoke in a home where oxygen is used because it is explosive and makes fire burn hotter and faster. 
• Don't smoke in bed. 

Electrical and Appliances

• Replace all worn, old or damaged appliance cords immediately because frayed wires can cause fires.  Do not run cords under rugs or furniture. 
• If an appliance has a 3-prong plug, only us it in a 3-slot outlet. 
• Use extension cords wisely by never overloading them or the wall sockets. 
• Immediately shut off and replace light switches that are hot to the touch and lights that flicker. 

Portable Heaters

• Keep combustible objects at least 3 feet away from portable heaters. 
• Make sure the heater has a thermostat control mechanism that will shut off automatically if the heater falls over. 
• Never overfill kerosene heaters and use them in a well-ventilated room. 

Fireplaces and Wood Stoves

• Inspect and clean wood stove pipes and chimneys annually and check monthly for damage or obstructions. 
• Never burn trash, paper or green wood in your fireplace or stove. 
• Use a fireplace screen large enough to stop rolling logs and large enough to cover the entire opening to catch flying sparks. 
• Make sure the fire is completely out before leaving the house or going to bed. 

Other Tips 

• Store matches and lighters out of children's sight and reach. 
• Never leave children unattended near operating stoves or burning candles, even for a short time. 
• Never use the range or oven to heat your home. 
• Replace mattresses made before the 2007 Federal Mattress Flammability Standard.
• Keep combustible and flammable liquids away from heat sources. 
• Portable generators should never be used indoors and should only be refueled outdoors or in well ventilated areas.  

Mission Bay offers Lake living at its finest with gorgeous lake view and lakefront homes at the Lake of the Ozarks. The development is beautifully tiered so most lake view homes will always enjoy the stellar lake views.

New Cinema Opening at Lake of the Ozarks!!

The Lake of the Ozarks continues to grow in all areas with new developments happening all over.  From Lakefront homes to new businesses coming in or expanding...everywhere you look there is PROGRESS!!

Wehrenberg Theatres announced that the new state of the art Eagles' Landing 8 Cine in Lake Ozark will host their grand opening on November 1, 2013.  The complex will feature eight digital movie screens including three state of the art 3D digital auditoriums. This new facility will also boast many exciting movie-going amenities guests will love. 

• Luxury seating with leather, high-back rockers are in all auditoriums.
• "Snuggle Seating" rockers have movable armrests for the guests comfort.
• Stadium-seating with larger movie screens providing a clear digital picture and sound are in every theater. 
  
• A large concession area with a wide variety of snacks and a self service soda station so refills will be hassle free.
• A large indoor lobby area including an expanded game area will accommodate guests nicely.

The demand for more movie choices at the Lake led to ground breaking on Eagle's Landing 8 Cine in late January of 2013.  Additional screens will allow more films to show as well as letting the films stay longer so movie goers have more options to fit their schedules.  The Osage Village Cine 5 at the Osage Premium Outlet will remain operating as usual.  Having celebrated its 100th Anniversary in 2006, St. Louis-based Wehrenberg Theatres is the oldest family-owned-and-operated theatre circuit in the U.S.
