🎃YOU’D NEVER GUESS THESE PUMPKINS CAME FROM DOLLAR

🎃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. 🎃

Would you try this Dollar Tree fall decor DIY?! 🍁

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”? 🎃🐈

POV: You don’t have kids, so your cats get the boo baskets. 😹🎃🐈‍⬛

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 g

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. 👏🏻

Want to make your own homemade vanilla extract for Christmas gifts this year?!

Comment “VANILLA” below and I’ll send you everything you need to make it! 🤎

Have you ever made homemade vanilla extract before?!
