Happy fall y’all! I’ve always wanted to say that but not being from the south, “y’all” just feels weird to say out loud. Anyway, I have pumpkin muffins in the oven and am rocking a flannel shirt today. Crisp, fall weather has arrived and I am totally here for it! My house is ready too! I spent an evening arranging pumpkins and rearranging pumpkins and I’m pretty happy with how this year’s fall decor turned out.
Lacquer Box DIY
Remember back in March and April when everyone was decluttering in a way that would make Marie Kondo proud? I didn’t go very hardcore but I did find a half stained wood box in the one tote I went through. Nearly everything is back in that tote but I was able to give the wood box new life! And now I have a pretty lacquer box DIY sitting on our nautical shelves in our guest bedroom.
DIY Texture Art
First, how is it September already? Second, thank goodness we’re this far into the year. And third, it took all summer but I finally have art that doesn’t say “Let it snow.” I made this super easy DIY texture art last weekend and it’s exactly what I need when it’s not appropriate to snow.
The Easiest Floral Initial Wreath
Do you ever have those spur of the moment ideas that end up falling together even better than you thought? That’s this wreath! I love this time of year when hydrangeas start turning blush colored. Our hydrangeas are still too small to bloom yet so I thought I’d bring my own blush florals to our door. And one quick trip to the craft store turned into the easiest wreath I’ve ever made.
Our Favorite Costco Buys
Have you ever had a membership to a club store? We became Costco members last December and are a little obsessed! Now that we’ve gone many times, I thought I’d share our favorite Costco buys we purchase on repeat.
Standing Desk and Footrest
I don’t know about you but I am in my 22nd week working from home. 22 weeks! I have yet to miss my commute but after about the first week, I was really missing my standing desk I had in the office. Ironically enough, I was planning to purchase a standing desk for my office at home this year. After a bit of research, I chose an electric sit/stand desk by Flexispot and made a footrest to use with it. Here is my review of the desk and quick tutorial of the footrest that matches the ottoman I made last year.
