Autumn Bliss

Yesterday, my sister and brother-in-law, and Jordan and I went to a local corn maze/pumpkin patch. This was our second year going, and this year easily trumped last year in numbers and things to do. It felt good to be doing something seasonally appropriate and enjoying the beautiful weather with family. Even though it definitely feels like fall in Texas, it's not quite the same as Ohio. I'm still waiting for the leaves to change! Anyway, I just wanted to post a few pictures from our day yesterday. Enjoy!

DIY Projects

I've always struggled with whether to pay money for cute home decor or flex my creative muscles and create my own decor. The other day, I stumbled upon this sight that gave me so much inspiration. These projects are both doable and reasonably priced! You don't have to be an art teacher to do this on your own, you just have to get off your butt and follow instructions. To do these DIY projects follow the links.

Cute Stationary and Journals

 

I just absolutely love stationary. It's a must in my life. I mail out letters to friends and family more than I go shopping. It makes me sad to think that most people don't send letters anymore or even use a pen and paper because of technology. Don't get me wrong I love technology, but there is something beautiful about taking the time to show someone you care. Letters don't go away like a text message. It's something you can keep forever. Anyway, all these cute stationary and journals can be found at www.anthropologie.com
