POV: you made the cutest DIY Halloween decor without buying a single thing 👻📖

This is your reminder that fall decor doesn’t have to be expensive! Some of my favorite seasonal decorations are DIY projects made with supplies I already have at home, and this spooky cute DIY ghost banner might be one of my favorites yet.

I started by brewing about 4 bags of black tea and letting it cool. While the tea was cooling, I tore a few pages out of an old book I already had and placed them in a shallow baking dish with the tea. I let the pages soak for several hours to give them that perfectly aged, vintage look.

Once the tea-stained book pages were dry, I used a ghost-shaped cookie cutter to trace little ghosts onto each page. Then I cut them out, added tiny faces with a Sharpie, and attached them to twine using mini clothespins.

And that’s it! 👻

I hung my DIY ghost garland on the hutch in my dining room, and I think it adds the perfect amount of spooky cute Halloween decor without spending a bunch of money.

You could easily customize this budget-friendly fall DIY too! Instead of ghosts, try pumpkins, leaves, bats, or whatever shape fits your fall decor. The possibilities are endless!

Save this easy DIY Halloween decor idea for your next fall craft night, and tell me: would you make the ghosts or switch them out for another fall shape?!

If you have a major sweet tooth like me, you NEED

If you have a major sweet tooth like me, you NEED to try this fun fall dessert idea! Instead of a traditional charcuterie board, load it up with all your favorite cookies, candies, chocolates, and seasonal treats for the ultimate fall dessert charcuterie board. 🍫🍬🍪

The best part?! It’s completely NO BAKE 🙌 Just grab your favorite fall and Halloween treats, arrange them on a board, and you have an easy dessert that looks like you put way more effort into it than you actually did. 😂

This would be SO cute for a Halloween party, fall girls’ night, Friendsgiving, movie night, or any fall get-together. 🎃👻 And you can easily customize it with whatever treats you love!

Honestly, I think dessert charcuterie boards might be better than regular charcuterie boards… but maybe that’s just my sweet tooth talking. 😆

Would you make a fall dessert board like this?! And more importantly… what treat are you grabbing FIRST?! 👇🏻

Come style my screened in porch for fall with me! 🎃

Who says the front porch gets to have all the fun?! 😂 I spend WAY more time on our screened-in porch, so of course I had to give it a cozy little fall makeover too!

This bar cart is one of my favorite spots to decorate because it’s so easy to switch out with the seasons. A few pumpkins, some warm fall colors, and simple seasonal touches instantly make this space feel so much cozier for fall. 🍁

And since this is basically my favorite spot to enjoy my morning coffee, I want it to feel just as festive as the rest of our home!

Of course, the cats also think the pumpkins are here specifically for them to knock over. 😹 Apparently they have VERY strong opinions about my fall porch decor.

Are you decorating your outdoor spaces for fall too, or do you keep all the pumpkins inside?! 🎃

DIY mercury glass pumpkins that still look this go

DIY mercury glass pumpkins that still look this good YEARS later?! Sign me up! 🎃

I made these mercury glass pumpkins several years ago, and I’m still so in love with how they turned out! They honestly look just as good today as they did when I first made them, which makes this one of my favorite budget-friendly fall DIYs.

There’s just something so satisfying about taking an inexpensive Dollar Tree pumpkin and turning it into fall decor that looks way more expensive than it actually was. 🙌🏻 These have that beautiful vintage mercury glass look and are perfect for adding a little cozy, high-end touch to your fall and Halloween decor.

And the best part? You only need a few supplies and a few dollars to recreate them!

Comment “mercury glass” below and I’ll send you the full step-by-step tutorial! 🎃

And these Apple Cider Crinkle Cookies need to be at the top of your fall baking list! 😍 Made with nutty browned butter, a homemade apple cider reduction, and warm autumn spices, these cookies are rich, chewy, cozy, and basically taste like apple orchard season in cookie form.

They may sound fancy, but I promise this apple cider cookie recipe is actually so easy to make! 🙌

If you love apple desserts, fall cookies, and anything that makes your kitchen smell like autumn, you HAVE to try these! 🍎🍪

Flower Lovin’ Friends! POV: YOU’RE READY FOR FALL…

Flower Lovin’ Friends! POV: YOU’RE READY FOR FALL… BUT YOUR SUMMER FLOWERS DIDN’T GET THE MEMO 😂

I’ve been working on my fall front porch this weekend, and I’m loving how it’s coming together so far!

It’s still SO warm here in North Carolina, which means all of my summer flowers and plants are still going strong. So instead of my usual neutral fall porch decor, we’re going a little more colorful this year and I think it looks so pretty! 🍂🌸

I added a new pumpkin doormat for a little fall refresh, but everything else is fall decor I’ve reused from years past. Proof that you definitely don’t need to buy all new decorations every season to give your porch a fresh look! 🙌🏻

And can we talk about FAUX MUMS?! I bought these last year, and it may have been one of my best fall decorating decisions because I can pull them out year after year and they still look perfect. Which is especially helpful considering I somehow manage to kill the real mums every single fall. 💀🤣

I still have a few finishing touches to add, but I’d say my colorful fall porch is off to a pretty good start! 🎃

Are you team REAL MUMS 🌼 or team FAUX MUMS because you can’t keep them alive either?! 😂

POV: you finally found a board game you’re guaranteed to win. 🤣🧀🍇

I LOVE board games… especially when people put meat and cheese on them. Maybe some fruit, crackers, and a few other snacks too. Now THAT is a game I’m really good at. 😂👏🏻

Okay, I’ll be honest, I’m actually not a huge board game person. But I AM extremely competitive, which means I only enjoy playing if there’s a decent chance I’m going to win. 😜 And if I’m not good at the game? Suddenly I’m no longer interested. 😂

But give me a charcuterie board filled with cheese, meats, crackers, fruit, and all the yummy snacks, and I’ll happily play all night long. 🙌🏻

Plus, an easy charcuterie board is one of my favorite entertaining ideas for fall get-togethers, game nights, girls’ nights, and holiday parties. It looks impressive, requires basically no cooking, and everyone can grab exactly what they want!

So tell me… are you a REAL board game person 🎲 or are you more of a charcuterie “board game” person like me?! 🧀🤣

Never thought I’d be making a binder with dividers

Never thought I’d be making a binder with dividers for doctor notes, lab results, treatments, medications, scans, surgeries, symptoms, and medical records at just 33 years old… but here we are. 😂

After months of appointments and still feeling like no one can put all the puzzle pieces together, I’ve officially decided I’m becoming that patient. You know, the one who walks into every appointment carrying a giant medical binder, receipts in hand, ready to advocate for herself and get some ANSWERS. 😂👏🏻

Because if navigating chronic illness has taught me anything, it’s that sometimes you have to become your own medical historian and your own biggest advocate.

There is a little bit of good news though! 🙌🏻 I was able to get an appointment with Duke’s Electrophysiology Clinic to hopefully get more help with my inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST) and figure out a better treatment plan. The downside? My appointment isn’t until October 30th. 🙃 So once again… we wait.

I’m really hoping that by the end of this year, I’ll finally have more answers, a treatment plan that actually helps, and a clear path forward. 🤞🏻

Until then, catch me organizing my medical records like they’re a high school research project. 😂📑

Anyone else with chronic illness have a giant medical binder too?! Because I have a feeling I’m definitely not the only one. 👇🏻

🎃YOU’D NEVER GUESS THESE PUMPKINS CAME FROM DOLLAR TREE!

I found these adorable stackable pumpkins at Dollar Tree for only $5 each, and of course I immediately started thinking about how I could give them a little high-end fall makeover! 🍂

I started with a coat of black spray paint, then went over them with a metallic bronze spray paint to add the prettiest subtle shimmer. ✨ I finished them off with a cute little bow on top, and just like that—a simple Dollar Tree find looks like expensive fall porch decor! 🙌🏻

My porch definitely isn’t fully decorated for fall yet, but I think these DIY Dollar Tree pumpkins are a pretty cute start, don’t you?! 😍

There’s just something so satisfying about taking an inexpensive Dollar Tree find and transforming it into something that looks way more high-end! And this one was SO easy to do. 🎃

Who’s already dressing their pets up for Halloween

Who’s already dressing their pets up for Halloween? 🎃👻

Apparently Little Miss Riley is NOT a fan of her new Halloween cat sweater… and she made that very clear. 😹 I, on the other hand, think she looks absolutely adorable in her tiny spooky outfit!

Honestly, I’m shocked we even got the sweater on her. She’s so fast that catching her is usually the hardest part. 😂 Don’t worry though—we only kept it on long enough for a quick fit check before Halloween, then took it right back off and rewarded her with plenty of treats for being such a good girl. 🖤

I have a feeling this may be the first and last time she models her Halloween outfit this year… unless the treats convince her otherwise. 🤣

Are your pets team “dress up for Halloween” or team “absolutely not”? 🎃🐈

It may officially be September, but apparently the weather didn’t get the memo. 🤣 That’s okay though because I REFUSE to light anything but a fall scented candle from now on!

And the Fall Day candle from @ellerydesigns x @antiquecandleco is basically autumn in a jar. 🍁 It’s the perfect cozy fall scent to make your whole home smell like fall, even when it still feels like the middle of summer outside. 😂

Because if I can’t have crisp fall mornings and sweater weather yet, I can at least have a cozy home that SMELLS like fall, right?! 🍂☕️🕯️

If you’re looking for the best fall candles to kick off September and make your home feel extra cozy, definitely add this one to your list!

When I spotted these adorable glass pumpkin jars in the Target Dollar Spot, I immediately knew I wanted to give one a little high-end fall makeover! And y’all… I’m OBSESSED with how this turned out. 😍

I grabbed some ColorShot spray paint in Metallic Bronze and gave the entire glass pumpkin jar a few coats, and that was literally it! Such an easy DIY fall decor project, but it completely transformed this $3 Target find.

Tell me this doesn’t look like something you’d find at Pottery Barn for WAY more?! 🙌🏼 I love finding inexpensive fall decor and turning it into something that looks high-end without the high-end price tag. Plus, you could customize this DIY pumpkin jar with any color to match your fall decor!

I always love making a cute Halloween boo basket, and since we don’t have kids, obviously my cats are getting one instead! 😂🧡

I filled their cat boo basket to the brim with all their favorite treats, Halloween-themed cat toys, and even a few costumes because what’s a boo basket without some embarrassing Halloween outfits?! 👻🤣

Now, they may not appreciate the costumes… but I KNOW they’re going to love the treats and toys! 😹🐾

So take this as your sign to make a Halloween boo basket for your cat this year! It’s such a fun way to spoil your feline friend and get them in the spooky spirit. 🎃🧡

Would your cat love a boo basket or absolutely HATE the costumes? 😂

Y’all know I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress

Y’all know I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress lately, especially with all of my ongoing medical issues and still not having the answers or help I need. I thought picking up a paintbrush and trying a little creative hobby would be the perfect way to relax, clear my mind, and hopefully be a little therapeutic.

Then I saw these cute fall-themed paint by numbers kits and immediately thought, “Yep. This is right up my alley!” 😂 Something simple to keep my mind busy and get me into the cozy fall spirit.

Except… I forgot to factor in the tremors. 🤣

I started with what I thought was an easy one, fully convinced it was going to turn out adorable. Instead, my letters are all wonky, the paint definitely went outside the lines, AND I somehow dropped my paintbrush directly onto the canvas. 💀😂

But honestly? Despite the questionable artwork, it worked. It actually took my mind off everything for a little while, and I had so much fun doing it. Shaky hands and all. 🥹❤️

Maybe I’ll try another paint by numbers later this week and see if I can redeem myself. 😂🎨

Anyone else have a relaxing hobby that turns into a complete disaster but you keep doing it anyway? 😂👇🏻

If you’re looking for an easy homemade Christmas gift that people will actually use, homemade vanilla extract is one of my all-time favorites! 🎁 And now is the perfect time to make it so it has plenty of time to infuse before the holidays.

Homemade vanilla extract is SO simple to make, but it feels like such a thoughtful, special gift. Plus, once you start baking with real homemade vanilla extract, you may never want to go back to the artificial stuff from the grocery store! 🙌🏻

Pour it into cute little bottles, add a festive label or ribbon, and you have the perfect DIY Christmas gift for neighbors, teachers, coworkers, friends, hostesses, or anyone who loves to bake! 🎄🎀

And the best part? You can make a whole batch at once and knock several people off your Christmas shopping list early. 👏🏻
