Happy Fall!

I've been enjoying some sweet autumn scents.

What's your favorite autumn scent?

My autumn wreath.

I've had to glue the owl back several times, but it seems as though he's hanging on strong.

My fun DIY crafts and projects

I recently painted this sunflower. I've been watching a few painting tutorials online.

It was such a fun project. I sipped on a glass of wine, played some tunes, and created this sunflower.

My husband roasting his coffee. I absolutely love how the house smells when he roasts the coffee beans. Have you tried roasting your own coffee beans? If so let me know in the comments below.

I made some orange spiced granola. All you need are some oats, walnuts, orange zest, and a few spices. Bake and enjoy! It's so delicious and it's perfect for topping your oatmeal in the morning.

Sweet little ladybug. I took this picture during a trip to the zoo.

Can you tell that I love sunflowers? A trip to the craft store for paint and I ended up buying these sunflowers. They were on sale too!

We read daily. Lately, we've been reading Halloween stories.

Changing up my table decor.

The haunted house my daughter made when they had the Lowe's kids building workshop.

A peaceful fall day at the zoo.

I love all the changing colors.

Sweet treats are always welcome!

I'm finding new ways to bake and using new ingredients as well.

It's always such a fun time. I really enjoy baking with my oldest.

Thanks for stopping by!

May your Autumn days be filled with love, laughter, joy, and beautiful moments.

Easy Floral Decoupage Idea for Faux Pumpkin Display

Hi everyone! I'm excited to share a simple and easy floral pumpkin design you can create quickly. Today, we will make a faux floral pumpkin display using decoupage and a few additional designs. I'm reusing a foam pumpkin that I bought at Dollar Tree. If you’re ready, let’s begin creating an easy floral decoupage faux pumpkin display! Quick video tutorial **Materials needed:** - Acrylic paint - Paintbrush - Floral napkin - Faux pearls - Faux flowers - Craft knife - Scissors - Mod Podge Carefully remove the top of your pumpkin. I used my craft knife to go around the top section, creating a hole at the top. Using a paintbrush, apply acrylic paint to the pumpkin. I chose to paint mine black. Next, use scissors to cut out a few flowers from your napkin. Make sure to remove the second layer of the napkin before cutting out the designs. Once you have your floral designs cut out, use a paintbrush to apply Mod Podge to the pumpkin. While the Mod Podge is wet, add the floral napkin c...

DIY Floral Wooden Jack‑O’‑Lanterns (Easy Fall Decor)

I’ve been having so much fun creating fall projects this year. These floral wooden jack‑o’‑lanterns started as simple wooden pumpkins, but with a few pretty transfers and some soft paint colors, they turned into the sweetest little fall accents. I love how the florals give them a cozy, cottage‑style feel while still keeping that classic jack‑o’‑lantern charm. They’re quick to make, easy to customize, and such a cute way to add a warm autumn touch to your home. Watch the video tutorial Materials Wooden pumpkin cutouts Floral transfers Acrylic paint (your chosen colors) Gold acrylic paint Green acrylic paint Mini dowels Hot glue gun + glue sticks Small wooden stands Brown acrylic paint Paintbrushes Add the floral transfers I started by placing my floral transfers onto each wooden pumpkin, just arranging them until they felt right.
