July Favorites

The month of July was filled with tons of favorite buys! Mostly for our 3 kids since school is right around the corner.

Abby has discovered Vera Bradley this year and we bought her first Vera Bradley item, a backpack for school with a few accessories to finish the collection off. The pattern is called "Pink Swirls". I believe it's a retired pattern.

We ran into Claire's to pick up one cute Pair of earrings to start the schoolyear and came out with a few more items, girls sure can talk me into things, haha.

I wanted to peek into Yankee Candle and sniff the new Fall candles and came home with these 2!

Really enjoying the Farmer's Market! I know, I know, here in FL we don't have an Autumn/Fall season but this girl is going to pretend in this house!

Playing with Coffee Table Vignettes

It's raining here on this Thursday morning, I have to run to the grocery store but it sounds nice and I'm in the mood to finish Fall decorating!

Here is a peek at my coffee table decor. It looks so pretty at night too.  Not much but I have to be careful with 3 kids and 3 dogs running around.

Burlap runner ~ Wal-Mart

Pumpkin ~ my stash

Light up Acorns ~ Biglots

Playing with Fall Tablescape

I couldn't wait any longer and have started to decorate the house for fall.

The table runner and napkins are from a Country store in OH, I wish I had bought more while there since here in FL it's hard to find nice Country decor items.

Dishes are from Mikasa French Countryside

White pumpkins are from Target many years ago and are hollow with lids.

Wine glasses are from Goodwill.

Plastic colored pumpkins are from Dollar Tree.

The rain has started again this afternoon so I'm back at decorating!

Fall is On It's Way...

Although here in FL we do not ever get to see these colors.

It's this time of year we miss OH more and more but "Bloom where your planted", Right!

The Fall totes are coming out today, I'll set the A/C colder and pretend.

Fall Kitchen Vignette

Today I was cleaning the kitchen when inspiration struck and I just had to play around with this corner that I was not pleased with. 

I like how it's turned out so far

I bought the new Better Homes and Gardens 2014 candle in the Golden Maple Waffles. The scent throw is great cold and during burning it's even stronger which allows us to smell it in the Livingroom! 

I had to add my little Hen! 

Hope y'all are having a relaxing weekend!

Fall in the Kitchen

Sadly it seems that we've lost a box of my Fall decorations in our move so I'm forced to decorate simply this year. I started this morning with our new Kitchen and had to stop because our little guy is sick with a high fever and stayed home from school, we are snuggling on the couch while Tylonel starts to work. 

I'm still loving my hand-made Scarecrow that I made a few years ago in Ohio. He doesn't look to worn from all the moves he's made! 

I like how this grouping is going to look together, I just need to find some Sunflowers at my local grocery store. The candle is "Spiced Pumpkin Pie" from Better Homes and Gardens this year. 

I'm loving my White table scape this year. The white Pumpkins are from Target and we like to fill them with candy for Halloween. 

I also have the large white Pumpkin from Target on our Breakfast bar area. 

I will share our living room with you soon as I can, depending on who else gets sick now, ain't it always like this when School starts?

Amaze Me Monday

Welcome Fall

Even though here in FL we do not see much of this Season, I do remember the leaves changing in OH and crisper temps.

I am on my way to buy some Apple Cider (from Wal-Mart here sadly not from a fruit stand like back up north) to celebrate Fall!

I hope your Sunday is as nice as ours is today, calm and relaxing but still hot.

Autumn Flowers

My Husband gave me the most beautiful bunch of Autumn flowers! Let the Fall decorating begin this week!
