August Vibes, and Sipsby Tea Review

August treated us well, other than the mid-90-degree weather, and school starting. I'd say I am still very thankful and feel fortunate to be able to take in each day and be with my family.

August consisted of school starting, new job searches for my husband, and new blog opportunities for me. I am forever thankful to all of you that continue to reach out, and those of you who come by, and read my content. This month my content was featured on Hometalk, and I have had a few other blog opportunities. - Thank you!

And for those of you who follow along, I'd love it if you checked out my other blog over at stephcreatesthingsdiyhomeandcrafts.blogspot.com I started this blog so that I can display more of my crafts. It is a space that will feature just my DIY crafts and other home projects.

This month I received my August tea box, and as always Sipsby left me impressed! If you haven't heard of Sipsby here's a little about who they are, and what they do.

Sugar Cookie Sweetheart- Sips by, Cookie Tea

Caffeine-free

Can we just say that this was my absolute favorite in my August box!

Every sip was like I was enjoying a sugar cookie, and it was so delicious.

This tea is a loose-leaf tea, and I thought it was so cute how there were little sugar hearts. Steep for 5 minutes, and enjoy!

Sunshower Spice-Sips by, Rainy Day Tea CO

This tea is perfect for Fall time. When I first opened the package, the aroma was everything! Flavors included cinnamon, apple bits, cardamom seeds, and sweet blackberry leaves. This tea steeps for 5-7 mins and is packed with delicious spices, and really puts you in the Autumn vibe.

Chocolate Mint Oolong tea- Sips by, Stash Tea

Perfect for evening sips.

Mango Magic- Sips by, Ahmad tea

Hello, mango! If you are a mango fan, this tea is definitely for you. It is a black tea and is packed with mango goodness. This tea provided some great mango flavors and tastes wonderful with a little honey. Steep for 3-5 mins, and enjoy!

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. 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. Once they were where I wanted them, I used a little rubbing tool to press them down and transfer the design onto the wood. Take your time with this part — slow, even pressu...
