Theresa's Bonus Features this week! 
Okay, I'm just so excited about the upcoming Holidays I could not limit myself to just one ornament, we had 3 Beautiful examples!
SO, all three are my Bonus Feature! Because, lets face it, it's my Party! And, I can.

First up, Olives-N-Okra's Snowy Noel Ornament,
Then we have Sweet Things Nordic Ball, so cute!
Last, but not least, Beverly from Across the Boulevard shared her very creative Coasters-turned Ornaments! So much fun to be had, and such great Inspiration for the upcoming Christmas Season!

Welcoming Autumn Anew, Every Year!

Isn't it wonderful that we all have our own way of welcoming each Season in our homes and in our hearts?! I love that! Whether it be through some special decor project, a recipe that you've been waiting for the cooler weather to make, or as simple as getting your favorite sweater or fuzzy slippers out. We all(I am speaking in general, of course)  do or have something that speaks "AUTUMN" or "Fall", "Summer" or "Spring', "Winter" into existence for us at our homes and in our hearts.

This year, as most of you know, I find Autumn coming while I am in between homes. One that has sold, and I have not yet discovered the new one that God has waiting for me. That doesn't mean, by any stretch of the imagination, that I am not rejoicing over the arrival of Autumn! Quite the contrary is true, it is the changing color of each leaf,  the first few sprinkles of rain, the chill in the air and my fuzzy slippers and cozy robe that bring peace and a greater sense of home than any house could provide. 

  

What to do Weekends #147 ~ Albeit a bit late!

Good morning, friends. Thank you so much for popping over. My sincerest apologies to you and my What to do Weekends Co-host, Linda from the incredible Crafts a La Mode!
I have no glib anecdotes for you. I have a head cold and bronchitis.  I don't know if it was the benedryl, or the Dayquil or the honey and cinnamon that did me in.  But, at the time the party was to be posted I was out of it and grateful for that! So, if this reads a little like a flu induced stupor, it is! 

With that said, Linda pitch-hit the party out of the park, all on her own. So major kudos to her for that.

I have been popping around and pinning your work during the past week and will continue to do so. I'm so grateful to tell you that if you pop over to Crafts a la Mode you will see Linda's awesome Features for the week. I, on the other hand, will have to make it up to you, I promise, I will, after I can crawl out of bed for more than a half hour at a time.

What to do Weekends #140

Welcome to What to do Weekends Party!
 Your hostesses, Theresa and Linda could not be more thrilled to have you here to kick off the Weekend and the Party!!
Theresa wanted to take a second to ask you for prayers for all the firefighters and the victims of the recent #ValleyFire. I live in Northern California and we are going through the most devastating Fire season in history. My county and several others near by have lost so many homes and lives, as well as, all of their belongings.  Such devastation is so very hard to see. I am okay. but many are not. Please, mention them in your prayers today, tonight, whenever you can. Their fight is just starting. We have pop up evacuation centers everywhere and we rush our clothing and as much supplies as we can to try and aid them. But, I'm afraid it will take alot of time for most. Thank you.
Thank you to all of you who come join us here with your wonderful Crafts, Recipes and DIY incredible creations with us every week~
