DIY Halloween: Witch’s Broom
Is it even the beginning of the Fall season without the overwhelming smell of cinnamon the second you walk through the doors at the grocery store?

This year I decided to repurpose it and make it officially into a Witch’s broom and I think it turned out so stinkin’ cute! Give this one a try and let me know how it turns out!

September Goals
The countdown to Fall is on and I couldn’t be more excited. I don’t know what it is about this time of year but it is the time that I feel the most energized and inspired to create content. It must be all the Pumpkin Spice Lattes… I just finished my first month as a full-time business owner and have decided to pivot what my business looks like.

The Herbs We Have Growing This Time of Year
We are here in zone 8b, and this time of the year there really isn’t a lot going on in our garden. One thing we do have though are some perennial herbs that stick around all year long!

If you’re new to gardening, I highly recommend starting with herbs and the ones below in particular! English Thyme I have a few different plants in various pots out in my garden and it’s no surprise that a lot of comfort recipes for this time of…

Seeds We’ve Started and the plan for our 2021 Summer Garden
I haven’t shared a lot about my garden in years past on the blog. You can see our 2017 garden here and a post about our backyard here.

I decided not to set resolutions this year, but I like the idea of a few monthly goals to focus on. At this point in time, having some small goals to focus on will be helpful! 1. Pack lunch for work everyday Admittedly, I have been not the greatest at packing…

My Fall Decor
One of my favorite things to do with Halloween and Fall decorations around my house is to use pieces that can pull double duty for both occasions. This year I bought so many pumpkins and to me, they really are the symbol of the season. For Halloween, I spread the pumpkins out to different areas of the house but for my fall decorations, I concentrated the real ones and the various faux ones to my mantle. For the porch, all I did was switch out the standing sign, the welcome sign, and the welcome mat. The pumpkins out there fit in perfectly with the rest of the fall decor! I…
