It was that time of year again, time to get my giant glass terrarium out of storage. I have a basket filled with Terrarium items like rocks, moss, tiny animals and miniature houses with whimsical mushrooms. I never know what I will design, and sometimes I add new items to my Terrarium basket in storage….

The little lake in October.
There won’t be a lot of photos with this one. The light is changing here, it was very bright at the lake, the sun was spotlighting all the lake’s beauty. I took what photos I could and then my battery died. I forgot to pack an extra one in my pocket so it was just…
What do you hear? The language of a lie.
I remember where it happened, that first time I thought something was up. It was in a restaurant, a safe happy place where conversations flow easy. A question was asked. ” What do you hear, Yanny or Laurel?” What a strange question I thought to myself as I watched a short clip waiting for the…
A month of Photos.
Mostly this month was all about us getting back to walking, renovating, a little shopping and lots of creating. Oh…and prepping and painting…lots of painting. I’m slowly replacing the Christmas decorations I donated before we moved. We had one truck to fill for our big move and what ever we could fit into that one…
DIY yarn pumpkins.
Bought a bunch of Fall grab bags from a day of thrifting. Purchased 24 Styrofoam pumpkins for less then what it cost new in the stores, total cost for me was $5.In the large chain stores you pay $13 for 7 pumpkins in small bags. I’m not having fun with this inflation. But we all…

My Pickin haul.

What’s trending for Fall decor.
I don’t really follow the trends, but I do like to see what is trending. Right now in Fall decor they are saying that Grandma decor is trending, but I believe that has been trending for awhile. They called it cottage core for awhile there…is cottage core still a thing? You know, I think what…
A Fall to do list.
This is just a reminder that it’s nice to make little goals where we treat ourselves plus the ones we love. Take time to make a list of things you want to do for each new season. It doesn’t have to be big or break the bank, just fun little treats and experiences to brighten…
Fall festival time.
After a hard week of too many projects, we have been feeling a little beat again, so tired. Enough already I think to myself, is there ever an end to all these beginnings. Again…how many times am I bringing up this subject, in which I think we may have put too much on our plates….
