a couple of evenings ago i felt the great desire to make something. does that sometimes happen to you? you feel a bit anxious, unable to slow down those creative wheels that are turning.
using what i had on hand, i hot glued, threaded knitted & decorated until my little heart was content.
i found the polka dot pumpkin DIY on pinterest & quickly got to crafting. i just love love love how it turned out! it’s a cheery addition to our front porch.
i also made this wreath completely inspired by this wreath i also found on pinterest. oh, pinterest! how i love thee.
i’m not much for purchasing holiday decor, aside from the sweet ceramic handmade pumpkin above, but i do love creating it. now our porch is (finally!) ready for fall.
what are some diy projects you’ve completed recently? i’d also love to see some fun holiday crafts!
love,

i am so excited to share with you today this sweet little print + art shop, give with JOY, that i came across not too long ago. i am a huge fan of greeting cards & prints with positive messages. too often we are heavy with the mess of everyday so it’s nice to have daily reminders of joy around our homes.

i always love seeing little details of the home when i read a blog. aside from tips on gardening & ways to live more intentionally, it’s really why i follow blogs. today i thought i’d share some of the details of our home during this autumn season.
our home decor is always changing & our personal preferences for the space are always evolving. i hope to do a home tour one of these days, but for now, i hope you enjoy these little snapshots taken yesterday evening as the sun was setting.
love,
natalie
