I am glad that it is!
A month ago, when the kids started school, I didn't feel ready for fall at all!
But what a difference a month can make! And have you seen this?
This is the cover of the latest edition of Cottages and Bungalows. I am truly loving this magazine lately! And I am drooling over the cover picture here!
This is it, folks...this is exactly how I want my front porch to look this fall! ;)
But whether or not it does end up looking anything like this or not, it has definitely inspired me to "think fall"...before it's gone!
SO... I planted some mums in a pot out front...
And I also bought a pie pumpkin...these make the best ever pies!
And when I saw this bouquet of flowers while shopping at the grocery store, of course I had to bring them home with me! :)
I like to buy flowers on a regular basis for our dining room or kitchen, depending. Nothing outrageously expensive, often a simple bouquet of tulips. But this helps me through the often rainy, a bit dreary, winter months here!
{There are all sorts of tips for how to extend the life of your cut flowers, but I have found the best thing is just changing the water daily. They included this packet of additives, but I didn't end up using it! I just like keeping it simple, I guess!}
And as far as fall is concerned, I only have about 1,000,000 crafts I want to do, but will probably have to settle for a few of my favorites! I have several things up my sleeve to show you in the next few weeks, some of which are fall related, others not. :)
I hope you have a wonderful, blessed night! Thank you so much for visiting!
