Man oh man, it’s Monday again. Sigh… this week

Man oh man, it’s Monday again. Sigh… this weekend, like all the others flew by. I did have a pretty productive and nice weekend though.
🎃
On Saturday, I did some planting and Sunday I did some yard clean up. The weather was perfect, not too hot. We also went to a local pumpkin patch and I got 50lbs. worth of pumpkins for $25. I was so afraid when I went to the register and when I saw that price, my first thought was, I’m coming back for more pumpkins, without the husband. lol
🎃
Sunday I gave the pumpkins a bleach bubble bath so that they will last until Thanksgiving. However, last year they lasted until Christmas. They would have lasted longer, but my husband tossed them because he says pumpkins don’t belong with Christmas.
🎃
If you want to preserve your pumpkins, all the information is on my blog. The link is in my bio.
🎃
Have you gotten your pumpkins yet?

Hello Friday! So happy the weekend is almost here

Hello Friday! So happy the weekend is almost here. Next week Wednesday is the first day of Fall. So @bridgewayscentedmarket is kicking off the weekend with “Falling into Fall weekend”.
🍂
I received the “Hello Fall” candle that smells so amazing. It has a hint of cinnamon, baking spices and tea. The scent is not over baring, but the perfect scent for the Fall season. I’ve been burning it all week and I love it.
🍂
The candle is hand poured with soy wax and no colors are added. The candle burns clean and a 16oz. Jar will burn 80 hours.
🍂
Stock up on your candles! Kathy is giving a 15% discount with code: FALL15. Link in my bio.
🍂
What is your favorite Fall scent?

Happy Tuesday! Today I am sharing with you a throw

Happy Tuesday! Today I am sharing with you a throwback to last years Halloween Decor. I had so much fun styling this space. This year I have been undecided on what I want to do in this area.
🦇
Though I do think I need to make a Target run. I want to get a Fall throw for a little color. I’m thinking I may do a rusty orange? I have so much white and neutrals that I need that pop of color. Though I love mustards too. I guess I just need to see what inspires me.
🦇
The signs, bats, and pillows are from @krumpetshomedecor. I have a 10% discount code for you: PBANDP. The link is in my bio.

What is your Fall accent color?

Hello Monday! How does the weekend go so fast? I’m not ready for another work week. I can’t get over how fast September is going too. Pretty soon we will be talking Christmas.
🌾
This weekend I started organizing my Fall decor. I actually got it down to one bin, but that does not include the new stuff that I bought. The sad thing is, I have the urge to buy more. I love Fall decor. It’s so cozy and warm.
🌾
I put together this vignette for my dining room table. I am really loving the neutral colors this season. It just feels lighter and fresher to me. Oh and off the subject; Trader Joe’s got pumpkins in! Yay!
🌾
The mango wood pumpkin is from @krumpetshomedecor. I love their mango wood collection. If your interested in your own pumpkins, I have a 10% discount code: PBANDP. The link is in my bio.
🌾
I couldn’t decide if I should do a reel or share a photo, so I took a pole in stories yesterday, and as of last night 81% of you preferred photos. I had over 75 people give there opinions.
🌾
So today I decided to share photos, but I did make a reel, so I will share that in stories today. I think I will make a highlight, so we can always reference back.
🌾
What do you prefer, reels or stories?

Happy Thursday! I’m slowly, but surely taking do

Happy Thursday! I’m slowly, but surely taking down my summer decor and getting ready for Fall. Though it’s hard to think of Fall when it’s been a 100 for the past week. It’s supposed to cool this coming week, 90’s. I want Mums and pumpkins, but it’s just to hot.
🍂
I did manage to update my entry area, just a subtle change. I changed out my yellow pillow and added the muted green pillow and I added a brown throw to bring in a little warmth.
🍂
Since my home is so small, I like how more airy this space looks. My entry is only 27” long. Doesn’t give me much space. My dining room is pretty tiny too. When we remodeled the kitchen, we went with a bigger kitchen rather then a dining space. The kitchen is actually the biggest room in the house.
🍂
For Fall, I’m going to add some Fall pieces to my core pieces, but I’m not going to go crazy like I have in the past. Though I say that now. Last year it took me days to take Fall down, then days to put up Christmas. I don’t want to do that anymore. So much work!
🍂
Do you go all out for Fall and/or Halloween decor?

Happy Tuesday! I just love having Mondays off, it

Happy Tuesday! I just love having Mondays off, it makes the week go by so much faster. I hope this work week flies.
🌿
I’ve been on a roll lately. Last weekend I deep cleaned the kitchen, then I tackled my decor room and I deep cleaned the bathroom too. Who am I? I’ll tell you, it feels good to get this cleaning done. I just need to tackle the living room next. It became my decor catch all.
🌿
I’m not one to add too much seasonal decor to the bathroom, but I had to add a few pumpkins and a little sign. I may add one or two more pumpkins.
🌿
My inspiration for cleaning the bathroom are my new bath towels that I got from @schweitzerlinen. Oh my gosh! They are so soft. I’m not too picky of a person, but one thing I am picky about is bath towels. Nothing worse then getting out of a hot shower and grabbing a lack luster towel that feels a little rough. You know what I’m saying? I need softness and these towels are luxurious. They feel like a Spa.
🌿
The bath towels I have are the “Aquatic” and are made with 600 grams of super-absorbent, 100% cotton terry softness. Need I say more? Schweitzer Linen is having a Labor Day sale, up to 45% off and free shipping. Not sure if that is still going on, but if you need bath towels, I highly recommend.
🌿
What is your least favorite room in your home you don’t like to clean?

Happy Labor Day! As you may know, I’m tackling my decor/guest bedroom and oh my gosh. I have so much stuff. I did donate, sell and reorganized a lot. I didn’t realize it would take me all day and I’m not even half way done. Send help! I need a bigger house.
🍂
Since I have not had a chance to create new photos to share, I thought I would share some of my favorite Fall photos from last year.
🍂
I will be sharing new photos starting tomorrow. I have some ideas floating around in my head. I am happy to say, I found some things I was looking for. However, I have glass pumpkin candles and I still can’t find them. I’ll keep looking.
🍂
Do you have a cleaning or organizing project you have to do, but don’t want too?

Happy Monday! The weekend went so fast and I didn’t even do anything. Well, we did binge watch Heartland. Have you ever seen it? It’s such a cute show and it’s pretty wholesome. I think there is 14 seasons, and we are on season 2.
🐿
I did manage some cleaning this weekend, which felt nice to do. I was kind of slacking. I also put together this Fall vignette. I love the squirrels. I have a bunny addiction, but squirrels are becoming a fast second favorite. Move over bunnies, squirrels are taking over.
🐿
The mango wood squirrels and acorn is from @krumpetshomedecor. They are part of the new mango wood Fall collection. I am really enjoying more of a natural look and adding a little color with tea towels, foliage and plants. My goal this season is to stick to more of a natural look.
🐿
If your interested in getting your own little squirrels or acorns, be sure to check out Krumpets Home Decor. The link is in my bio. Plus I have a 10% discount code for you: PBANDP

Do you like to add animals to decor? If so, what one?
