Do you ever feel like a switch flips after Labor Day? One moment, summer feels endless, and the next, we’re racing toward fall, holidays, and the end of the year. It’s crunch time. That’s exactly how it feels right now for me and the blog. It’s as if the treadmill started running on high speed,…
I am always inspired to create something beautiful that captures the essence of autumn. So I made a pumpkin craft by repurposing an old faux pumpkin. Using dried green eucalyptus leaves, I crafted a stunning fall pumpkin that adds a natural, earthy touch to my seasonal decor. In this blog post, I’ll walk you through…
Fall is here, and you know what that means—I’ve been busy giving our family room a seasonal refresh. I love that I mainly used pre-owned fall decor in the family room. Before you start saying fall isn’t officially here, it is for me. It’s my job to share decor as early as possible. This year,…

Creating a fall table runner can be fun, so I pulled out my leaf stamps and made this DIY runner. Every now and then, I make intelligent decisions. I had planned to sew the fall table runner, but then I remembered I had seen one for sale online. It was perfect. It had a ruffle…
Now that it is almost Fall, I am sharing some of my favorite fall room decor ideas that I have used to decorate our home. I love fall colors; adding them to our home adds an instant pop of color. Fall room decor does not have to be any more complicated than color. See what…
Even though the calendar says fall is here, I haven’t fully let go of summer just yet. The heat has made it tough to get in the mood for cooler days and autumn leaves, but I’m starting small with fall clay pottery ideas that bring just the right touch of the season indoors. At the…
A few weeks ago, we gathered to celebrate one of the most joyful occasions in our family’s life., Ellie’s baby shower. Twenty of Ellie’s friends and family came together for her baby shower, and it was such a wonderful, love-filled day. In just a few short months, we will be welcoming our granddaughter, and this…
Hosting Ellie’s baby shower was a joy, and, of course, one of my favorite parts was dreaming up the decorations and cookie centerpieces for the baby shower. For me, it’s always about finding ways to add a personal, handmade touch that makes the day feel extra special. This time, I went back to one of…
I absolutely love creating desserts that are both beautiful and delicious. When I decided to try to make floral dessert tea cups for Ellie’s baby shower, I knew they would be a showstopper. After all, what could be cuter than using vintage tea cups as the canvas for an edible bouquet of buttercream roses?
I love vintage items. It is hard to choose a favorite, but my go-to, most used vintage item has got to be my cranberry glass. As most of you are aware, I love to collect vintage items. I have more than a few collections, but my cranberry glass is the one that I love and…
Today, I am combining two of my favorite things: painting and crafting. I made beautiful hand-painted leaves and then a door wreath. I love metallic paints and was inspired to create a door wreath by using metallic paint on heavy paper and then cutting out leaf shapes using a stencil. This project is kind of…
These might be the prettiest fall cookies I have ever made! I changed things up along the way, but they are gorgeous! I had a plan for these fall cookies but decided to pivot in a different direction at the last minute. If you only knew how often I change my mind when cooking and…

For the first time in over a decade, I had the chance to experience fall decorating in my living room in a whole new way. Okay, maybe not entirely new —I didn’t buy brand-new couches, but I did get beautiful new slipcovers, and let me tell you, they have completely changed the space. The slipcovers…
If there’s ever an excuse to fire up the grill (or the stovetop), it’s National Burger Day. Burgers are one of those classic comfort foods that can be reinvented in endless ways. And I love giving them a seasonal twist. Since we’re heading into fall, I wanted to create burgers that are not only delicious…
