Make your own wreath!

I just made a wreath to hang on our french doors leading into the office. It was so simple and cost a lot less than buying a wreath. I also love the look of hanging it with ribbon. Here is a picture of the finished look. A great project for these rainy days we have been having.

Autumn decor

On my mantel I used fall leaves, pine cones, fall botanicals, as well as wine glasses to elevate my little pumpkins.

In this picture I changed the way I displayed my pumpkins. I used mercury glass pots, turned them upside down, and placed my little pumpkins on top.

Fall vase fillers for my apothecary jars.

Placing pumpkins on candle sticks is a great way to display your fall decor!!!!!

Illuminate

Instead of placing candles on your candle sticks try placing a mercury glass cachepot on instead. The way the light comes through the glass is stunning.

There is nothing more inviting than when your house has a wonderful aroma! Try the pomegranate diffuser from Pottery Barn.

Turn a place mat into a piece of art! Framing fabric place mats are a great way to change the look of any room!

Falling Leaves

Fall is just around the corner and I am so excited!!I love everything about fall. The color of trees, pumpkin farms, apple cider donuts, crock pot meals, and decorating the house. I am excited to add some bales of hay to my front porch this season. This picture gave me inspiration.
I love the look of a wreath hanging over a mirror.
I love filling my lanterns with fall decor to change them up from season to season.
Vases and apothecary jars are also a great place to display the vibrant colors of fall.
How will you decorate your house for Fall? Happy Decorating!!!!!!

Layering Earrings

Here are two separate pairs of earrings made into one pair.

The red/orange beaded pair is from an adorable boutique called Olive and Tweed in Park City Utah, and the turquoise leaf pair is from Forever for $1.50. One of my favorite color combos is this red/orange color with turquoise, so I thought this was a fun way to change up your earrings.

Layering Bows

Here are a couple of my daughters bows also made into one.
These bows are great because you can clipped about any bow or flower into the center of them. Here I paired the blue bow with this green polka dot flower to match one of her dresses.

Green Moss

I love candles and I have candles in just about every room of the house. To make the candles look a big different from room to room I like to add something to them or group them differently. Here I used some green moss to add texture and color to my kitchen table.

Here I placed some green moss around the candle holder and in the vase with river rocks.

Rainy Day Crafts

I love coming up with ideas to change things around in my house. I had a few accessories that I wanted to work with and come up with an elegant way to make a candle holder. I had this cute little silver Martini glass, a white candle, and a long pearl necklace. I placed the necklace in the glass so that some of the pearls would hang over the side, and then placed my candle on top. Here is a picture.

One more project I recently did was I got some cute printed paper, framed it, and cut little birds out with a different printed paper. I love doing crafts, and wish I had more time!! It's a little hard to see the detail of each pic from this distance...

My next project on the list is to paint a big white tree in Maddie's room. As I was roaming the internet this one inspired me.

I just recently changed up my mantle with accessories I already had around the house. I love how the mirror reflects the light in the room. I always say shop around your house first before going out and buying anything! You would be surprised what you and create!

I framed this printed napkin for the entry way.

Check out this fun art project that my mom and I did:)! We made these paper flowers, and put them in a vase with little crystal stones. Such a fun rainy day activity! A great birthday gift to give to someone! You can get the paper flower kit @ Papersource
