Blast from the Past - Fall Edition

Happy Labor Day!  I hope you are all enjoying a relaxing, fun-filled weekend!

Now that it is officially September, I am starting to come to terms with the fact that Fall will soon be here. Summer is {by far!} my favorite season so I am always a little sad when it is over.  I am still not quite ready to bring out the Fall decor yet, but I know that many of you have already moved on.  So for those of you that are embracing the new season, here is a little recap of some of my fall projects for you!


If you are looking for a quick and easy project, you can't beat these 5 minute toilet paper pumpkins


There are lots of fun activities to do in the fall from apple picking to going to the pumpkin patch.  This Fall to do album lets you document your plans and add pictures as you go along.


One of my first Annie Sloan Paint Projects was this shelving unit.  Perfect timing to add some of that fall decor!


I always like making seasonal buntings and this pumpkin bunting was one of my favorites.




And since I had a few left over pumpkins, I made another little fall mini-album for all of our pumpkin patch and pumpkin carving pictures.


Don't forget about dressing up your outside space too!  Here is our front porch from a couple of years ago. 


Well, hopefully that will give you a few ideas to get you going!  Have you started decorating for fall yet?  If you are looking for more ideas, you can find lots of other fall inspiration over on my Pinterest board.

I hope you all have a great week!  For those of you enjoying the holiday today, be safe and have fun!
