If you’re planning your Halloween decor or already If you’re planning your Halloween decor or already decorating for fall 2026, don’t wait on these viral brown clay jack-o’-lanterns! Every year they disappear long before October, so now is the best time to grab them before they’re gone again.

One of my favorite ways to style them is by placing a battery-operated LED candle underneath to create the prettiest spooky glow on the front porch. They’re the perfect mix of cozy fall decor and spooky Halloween vibes. 🕯️🎃

Little Miss Charlie apparently has some VERY stron Little Miss Charlie apparently has some VERY strong opinions about my new fall florals on the coffee table because she has made it her daily mission to swat at them, bite them, and generally try to destroy them every chance she gets. And since it’s also international cat day, I figured it was the perfect moment to share her shenanigans 😂

I guess she definitely did NOT take after her mama when it comes to loving fall decorating! 🎃🍁 I’m trying to create a cozy fall home and Charlie is over here like, “Absolutely not.” 🤣

Honestly, I have to respect the confidence. At least she’s honest about her feelings! 😂

Tell me your cat doesn’t also think every piece of home decor is a toy. 😹

I found these adorable vintage thermoses and loved them as-is… but then I had the idea to give them a spooky-cute Jack-o’-lantern makeover for Halloween! 🎃

All I did was pull out my @cricut and cut a simple Jack-o’-lantern face from removable vinyl. Now I have two decorations in one! Display the plain side for your cozy fall decor, then simply turn them around when it’s time for Halloween decorating. It’s such an easy way to get more use out of your vintage finds!

I’ve been working on styling my fall coffee table centerpiece, but something just felt off. The bright greenery mixed with my fall decor wasn’t giving the cozy autumn vibe I was going for.

Then I spotted these adorable fall leaf bud vases from Target’s Hearth & Hand collection, and I knew they were exactly what my centerpiece needed. Swapping out the greenery for these warm autumn leaves made such a huge difference, and now my coffee table finally feels cozy and fall-ready!

Sometimes it’s the smallest decorating changes that make the biggest impact. 🍁

Anyone else always miss the hair on their kneecaps Anyone else always miss the hair on their kneecaps no matter how carefully you shave?! 😂 Please tell me I’m not the only one!

I swear I can spend forever shaving my legs, think they’re perfectly smooth, and then the second I get out of the shower… boom. Hair still hanging out on my kneecaps. 🤦🏼‍♀️

At 33 years old, you’d think I’d have figured out how to shave my knees by now, but apparently not. 😂 Is there some secret shaving hack for smooth legs that everyone knows except me?!

Please tell me this is one of those universal girl problems and I’m not alone! Drop a 🙋🏼‍♀️ if your kneecaps somehow survive every shave. 😂

Tell me… does your cat chatter at birds, squirrels, or rabbits through the window too? 🐈

Give the Gift of Clean this Holiday Season

This shop has been compensated by Inmar Intelligence and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #HolidaysWithFinish

We all know that 2020 has been such a rough year on everyone. And going into the holidays this year is probably not going to be the same as years past.

You may not be able to do your traditional celebrations and shopping as usual so I thought I would share with y’all a unique idea for gift giving this season.

Why not give the gift of clean with Finish® Products?!

Finish Products in Gift Basket

Products To Put In Your Gift Basket

I wanted to go with a clean dish theme so I included all of the following products in my gift basket this year. I always love receiving gifts that are both practical and functional and I believe this really fits the bill for that.

I also love getting useful items that are necessary, but not something I really like to spend my own money on. And dishwasher products are definitely necessary, but not a thing you would consider to buy with your “fun money”.

So when I receive a gift like this, I love it! Because I can use it right away and I don’t have to remember to put it on my list the next time I go grocery shopping!

Finish Products

This would be so perfect to drop off on your family member’s or friend’s porch as a cute little surprise to let them know you are thinking about them this holiday season.

So even if you aren’t having your normal celebrations and get togethers this year, here is a perfect and safe idea of a way to give a gift to someone you love but cannot see right now!

Finish® Quantum

These Finish® Powerball Quantum dishwasher tablets offer your dishes a superior clean and shine! It scrubs, degreases, and shines all in one.

No need to presoak or rinse, the power of the 3 fast dissolving chambers deliver the power of an overnight soak. Finish products together are a great solution to all of your dishwashing needs.

No matter what Finish® product you decide on (whether gels, tablets, or powders) you will be amazed at how clean and shiny your dishes are after using them!

Finish® Jet Dry® 3in1 Rinse Aid

This product is literally amazing because it solves three different problems in one solution. It not only rinses your dishes, but dries them and brings them a nice shine as well.

The 16 fl oz bottles holds enough for 155 washes too! I’d say that’s a huge timesaver, knowing this product is working on cleaning the dishes for you.

Finish® Dishwasher Cleaner

How often do y’all actually clean your dishwasher? I know I am super guilty of not doing it as often as I should. I really need to get better at it and this product definitely helps me do so.

It removes all the grease and limescale hidden in the parts of your dishwasher that you normally don’t see. It keeps your dishwasher hygienically clean.

A clean dishwasher equals clean dishes!

Finish Dishwasher Products

Where to Buy These Products

You can get these items online from the Finish® website. How easy is that?! You can order everything that you need in your gift basket without ever having to leave your house.

So why not pick up a few of these items to create a simple and useful gift basket for someone you love this Christmas season?!

    This is a great idea. I’ll be honest, I’ve never considered making a gift basket with cleaning products before BUT I would LOVE to get something like this myself lol Funny how that goes, isn’t it? I’m sure there are many people that would adore the ‘gift of clean’ this year!
