🍂 Fall is near, and it’s time to showcase pumpkins, rich floral arrangements, and cozy textures! One of my favorite ways to decorate for the season is by creating hanging baskets filled with artificial flowers and festive accents. Not only are these baskets budget-friendly (shoutout to the $2 basket from Michaels—thank you for the rewards!), but they also offer a beautiful way to reuse materials you may already have tucked away. In this post, I’ll guide you through three unique fall-themed hanging basket designs, each with its own personality and charm. Whether you’re decorating your front door, a cozy corner in your home, or gifting a handmade piece to a friend, these baskets are sure to bring autumn joy! Video tutorial Basket #1: Pinks & Pumpkin Charm For this first basket, I focused on deeper tones with a romantic twist. I used dark artificial pink roses, faux leaves, and darker green foliage, which gave the arrangement a rich, moody vibe. Materials: Hanging basket (mine wa...

At home, we're all enjoying this beautiful holiday season. I've been enjoying some time in the kitchen baking a few goodies. I normally have our kitchen radio on while I prepare meals. Sometimes I  take this time to reflect on a few things. - Happy thoughts. I recently purchased an oil to use in my warmer. - A mixture of nutmeg, orange, and cinnamon fills the air. - It's a very calm and refreshing scent. I enjoy this time at home. We recently finished our Christmas shopping and oh my! - I'm really considering doing most of my Christmas shopping online next year. Stores were packed and people are just so rude this time of year. Our oldest daughter has enjoyed her time playing tea time and putting together most of her puzzles. She's also been enjoying her time with her baby sister. I catch her giving her sister gentle kisses and holding her hand while she sings her a sweet song. - I absolutely love these moments. In the eve...

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”-Ashley Smith Fresh air, nature walks, park play dates...I can't wait for spring to get here! We have been having some warm weather here in Colorado, and I must say it seems as though everyone is enjoying it. I’m looking forward to nature walks with our daughter, and of course gardening. I’ve been asked which season I enjoy the most. I think I would have to say autumn. I love watching leaves fall from the trees, and the beautiful colors they turn. Everyone seems to pull out their scarves, and knitted sweaters. And we love sitting in coffee shops. So what's your favorite season? Even though autumn is one of my favorite seasons, I can't wait for spring to get here. Beautiful flowers, humming birds usually gather around my flowerbed, and I enjoy openi...

Today is a cold, snowy day here in Colorado. I started thinking of summers here in Colorado. It's beautiful.
