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. 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...

  Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #104! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas. It's Friday!  How are you doing? This weekend, I plan to refresh a bistro set, and I might even start decorating my porch for Autumn.  My husband has picked up a new hobby—he's building a guitar from a kit he bought. He's already painted it, and we're really excited to see him start building it.  Some of you may remember when I mentioned his boss gave him an acoustic guitar, and for his birthday, I got him a bass guitar as well.  I'll share pictures when he's finished with his guitar! What are your plans for the weekend? I'd love to hear about them in the comments. :)  Congratulations, Featured Bloggers! Home Brewed Coffee 101 shared a post, Coffee Brewing Methods. In the post, the different methods are listed, and a more detailed post is mentioned ...

  Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #101! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas. Thank you to everyone who joined us last week at party 100! And I read through all of your comments, and you are all just wonderful. This link party continues because of you! This week: I logged a few volunteer hours with an organization where I started volunteering. I've been volunteering for about 6 weeks now. We help people through difficult times. There's just something so rewarding about knowing that your kindness and presence have helped someone. I reconnected with an old friend. We chatted, laughed, and shared old memories. We both know that our lives are completely different, but it's nice to be able to say hi and reconnect. My husband continues with physical therapy for his back. We're honestly not sure how long this will last. Both girls start school o...

Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #100! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas. We made it to party 100! Yay! How was your week? I hope you are all doing well. This week: - We experienced a few rainy days, which caused some damage to our downstairs window. My weekend will be spent cleaning up the damage and making repairs! - I noticed the squirrel, yes, the same cute one from last week's party, munching on my beautiful rose bush! I had to hurry and shoo him away. - I still haven't tried the new Raspberry syrup from Starbucks. I've heard it pairs well with the iced white chocolate mocha; you can add raspberry cream to the drink for a delicious twist. I may just pick up raspberry syrup from my local World Market and make my own! Congratulations to our featured bloggers Lisa from Handmade in Israel created a beautiful card for Hila, her eldest s...

  “Life is all about making memories, isn't it? Because that's really all you're left with. You never want to look back at life and think what if..." - Page 94” ―  Jo Thomas,  Finding Love at the Christmas Market And that is what we set out to do... These past two months have been filled with so much love, and us making memories together. In August, we went on a mini adventure to Denver. We live only an hour away, so it was just a quick getaway. When we first arrived in Denver, we had some time to spare before our room at the hotel would be ready. We stayed at The Curtis Hotel . During our stay, we parked in the parking garage attached to the building and walked everywhere including to the Ball Arena for the concert. We had been planning to attend the Twenty One Pilots concert, The Clancy Tour, for months. We have a few super fans in our home.  Planning involved making bracelets, decorating shoes, and creating shirts for the concert.  We were just so excited....

      Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #52!  Our party is a platform to share inspiring content such as recipes, family-friendly posts, crafts, home decor, and anything inspiring. I hope everyone is doing well. We recently returned from our trip and it was absolutely wonderful. We live about an hour away from Denver and we decided to attend a concert there and visit a few other places while we were in the city.  We had a great stay at The Curtis Denver. We planned everything out and since it was only a 13-minute walk to the Ball Arena, our location worked out perfectly. We used the parking garage near the hotel and walked during our trip, which was nice. I'm hoping to share a post about our trip soon. Moving on to the party... Congratulations to our fantastic featured bloggers! Amy of Amy's Creative Pursuits  showcased her fashion splurges for August.  We adore how her outfit came together!
