My Fall To Do List

I can't believe this is the last weekend in September. With fall activities like football, apple orchards, and the cooler weather in full swing, I decided to make a Fall To do List of things related to my favorite time of the year. I found a couple of lists here and here that I used for inspiration then added some of my own.

1. Make apple cider donuts.
2. Day trip to Duluth, Minnesota and photograph the changing colors of the leaves and Lake Superior.
3. Visit a Pizza Farm.
4. Pick my own apples at a local Apple Orchard.
5. Make homemade apple butter and give it as gifts to friends and family.
6. Go to a Sip and Paint class.
7. Host a Baked Potato Bar.
8. Have a a Fall Craft night at my house.
9. Make Hot Chocolate from scratch.
10. Make ruffled lamp shades for my milk glass lamps.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Fall Decor Inspiration: Part 1

I am looking forward to fall. I love the cool weather, sweaters, boots, pumpkins, and the falling leaves. I've been searching the Internet to find some DIY fall home decor inspiration. These are things that I would put in my house.

We've all seen the canning jar lid pumpkin, I particularly love this one the best from Yellow Bliss Road!



















Also this painted pumpkin from Seven Clown Circus. I'm sure the cinnamon sticks add the perfect fall scent to the house.


















I love the different twist that twelveOeight did using sisal and twine! Isn't it the cutest!















Naptime Decorator is genius with this centerpiece! (Make sure to click on the link and look how she changed the centerpiece to correlate with the seasons! Genius, I tell you!) Something that is so simple, yet lovely!












Have you ever noticed how adding a wreath to your door can make your house look more inviting? I love making wreaths, but this is one that I haven't seen before. All You shows you how to make this awesome Acorn Wreath! I think this is something that I will have to try this fall! (Psst, there are instructions on their page!) I love the added touch the ribbon adds!


















Gingerbread Snowflakes has a brilliant idea recycling mason jars and using leaves found in your yard. Add a little Mod Podge and boom! Simple, yet stunning on a cool fall night!
















What are your favorite things about fall? Which project do you think you will try this fall?
