I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearl I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearly Natural on @amazon 🙌🏻 Usually, I keep my olive trees in these baskets on each side of our bed until Christmas, when I swap them out for Christmas trees. But now I officially have trees for FALL too… and I’m obsessed. 😂🍁

They add the prettiest deep, rich fall colors to our bedroom and instantly make the whole space feel warmer and cozier. There’s just something about bringing those autumn tones into your bedroom that makes it feel like the ultimate cozy retreat!

I’m definitely adding these to my list of favorite fall bedroom decor finds. 🍂

Are you someone who decorates your bedroom for fall too, or do you keep the seasonal decor to the main areas of your home?!

If you love Halloween decorations, historic homes, If you love Halloween decorations, historic homes, and all the cozy fall vibes, then you NEED to visit Charleston in October! 😍 

The beautiful historic houses all decked out for Halloween are seriously one of my favorite things to see. Charleston really knows how to do spooky season right!

One of my favorite things to do is simply stroll through the historic downtown streets and admire all the gorgeous homes and their festive fall decorations. 🧡

And honestly, fall is my FAVORITE time to visit Charleston, South Carolina! The weather is usually so much more enjoyable than the brutal summer heat. Although it was super rainy this weekend, I’ll take a little rain over that Southern heat and humidity ANY day! 🤣☔️

So consider this your sign to plan a fall getaway to Charleston! Between the Halloween decorations, charming historic streets, and beautiful architecture, it’s the perfect destination for an October weekend trip!

SAVE this post for your next Charleston trip! 📍 And tell me, would you rather visit Charleston in the fall or summer?!

They’re such a fun Halloween party dessert, a cute addition to your spooky treat boards, or just a sweet little treat to enjoy while watching your favorite Halloween movies! Plus, they’re a fun Halloween activity to make with the kiddos too!

Little Miss Riley is VERY particular when it comes Little Miss Riley is VERY particular when it comes to cat toys. I can buy her the cutest toy ever and she’ll look at me like, “And what exactly am I supposed to do with this?” 🤣

But cat scratching pads?! Those are her absolute FAVORITE. She’s just about worn her old one out, so when I spotted this adorable Halloween cat scratching pad at Target, obviously I had to bring it home for her. 🎃

After a few very thorough sniffs, an inspection, and some test scratches… we officially have Riley’s approval! 👏🏻😹

Honestly, I’m just glad I managed to buy something that passed her incredibly strict quality-control standards. 😂

Anyone else have a super picky cat?! What’s the ONE toy or cat product they actually love?
If you love ooey gooey desserts, you NEED to make If you love ooey gooey desserts, you NEED to make this Ooey Gooey Pumpkin Butter Cake this fall! 🎃🤤

Confession: I’m one of those people who would rather lick the batter or sneak some cookie dough than wait for the finished dessert. 🤣 And don’t come for me about the raw batter…I’ve been doing it my whole life and I’m still here 😜

Which is exactly why this pumpkin butter cake is one of my FAVORITE fall desserts. It’s fully baked, but the middle stays unbelievably soft, rich, and ooey gooey. 🙌🏻

You get a buttery yellow cake base topped with a creamy pumpkin layer that basically melts in your mouth. And add a big dollop of whipped cream on top?! CHEF’S KISS. 🤌🏻🎃

It’s easy to make, packed with cozy fall flavor, and would be the perfect pumpkin dessert for Halloween, Thanksgiving, or any fall gathering!

POV: you let your tuxedo cat snuggle on you while POV: you let your tuxedo cat snuggle on you while wearing a dark colored sweat set… rookie mistake. 😹

Consider this my official reminder to NEVER wear burgundy while cuddling Charlie again. 😂 One snuggle session later and my entire outfit is covered in black and white cat hair.

And the craziest part?! We literally JUST brushed her yesterday. 😬 How does one fluffy little tuxedo cat have this much fur to give?!

Being a cat mom basically means accepting that cat hair is now an accessory, your lint roller is your best friend, and you’ll be doing laundry for the rest of your life. 🤣

Thankfully, Charlie is cute enough to get away with it… and clearly VERY unbothered by the fact that she completely ruined my outfit. 😹

Tuxedo cat parents… PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one constantly covered in cat hair?! 👇🏻

10 YEARS. 🤍😭 Today is our 10 year wedding anniver 10 YEARS. 🤍😭

Today is our 10 year wedding anniversary, and I truly cannot believe an entire decade has already gone by. Somehow, it feels like we were just saying “I do,” and at the same time, I can’t imagine a version of my life without you in it.

Logan, you are my rock, my safe space, my biggest supporter, my constant encourager, and most importantly, my best friend. 🤍

This past year has probably been one of the hardest years we’ve walked through together. Between everything going on with my health, the uncertainty surrounding my job and my future, and all the unknowns we’ve had to navigate, life has looked a lot different than I ever imagined it would.

But through every hard day, every appointment, every disappointment, every fear, and every unknown, you have been right there beside me. You’ve supported me, encouraged me, taken care of me, made me laugh when I needed it most, and reminded me over and over again that I never have to go through any of it alone.

And I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fully put into words how much that means to me.

I’m so incredibly blessed that God gave me you. 🥹🤍 I would choose you over and over again in every lifetime.

Happy 10 year anniversary, Logan!! I love you more than you’ll ever know. Here’s to the next 10 years, and every single year after that. 🥂🤍

A whole decade down, forever to go. ♾️
POV: you’re overstimulated, exhausted, SUPER hangr POV: you’re overstimulated, exhausted, SUPER hangry… and then you drop your entire hot lunch on the kitchen floor 😩🤣

Because WHY do these things always happen when you’ve already hit your limit for the day?! Like that was quite literally my final straw 😂

And the best part? I had JUST cleaned the kitchen floors. Of course I did. 🙃 But at least this runner is vinyl so it’s easy to clean too thankfully! 

Nothing humbles you quite like standing in your freshly cleaned kitchen, staring at the lunch you were so excited to eat… on the floor. 😂

Just one of those real-life moments where you have to laugh so you don’t cry and keep rolling with life’s punches.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who has days where one tiny inconvenience feels like the absolute LAST STRAW?! 😩👇🏻

Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle from @antiquecandleco_ I shared last month?! Well… I’m sad to report that I’ve already burned through the entire thing 🤣 It smelled THAT good!

But honestly, one of my favorite things about this fall candle is that the beautiful amber glass pumpkin jar can be repurposed once the candle is gone. After giving mine a good clean, I turned it into the cutest little Halloween candy jar! 🍬🎃

So basically, it’s a 2-for-1: you get an amazing smelling fall candle AND an adorable reusable pumpkin jar for your fall and Halloween decor. 🙌🏻

I love finding ways to reuse seasonal decor instead of putting it away or tossing it—and this amber pumpkin looks so cute filled with Halloween candy!

Want one for your home too? Comment “CANDLE” below and I’ll send you the link! 👇🏻

Mother’s Day Gift Guide

I can’t believe how close we are to Mother’s Day! It is definitely sneaking up on us so I thought it would be fun to create a Mother’s Day Gift Guide. Just in case you were looking for some great gift ideas.

All of these items I have listed are items that I have personally used so I know the quality to them is outstanding.

Anything on here would make such a fabulous Mother’s Day present and I know any mother would love to have it!

Mother's Day Gift Guide

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

For The Jewelry Loving Mom:

I think we can all agree that jewelry is always a perfect gift for mom! Whether it’s for her birthday or Mother’s Day, you can’t go wrong with a beautiful piece of jewelry.

I wanted to include some of my favorite jewelry pieces to give right now for this Mother’s Day Gift guide! I am currently loving Victoria Emerson’s collection of jewelry.

Not only are they high quality pieces, but they are amazingly affordable as well!

Victoria Emerson Jewelry
Here are just a few bracelets and Apple Watch Bands that I currently have and love!

They offer many awesome styles of bracelets including wraps and cuffs. And they offer them in a variety of different stones and colors as well.

You can also get Apple Watch Bands or FitBit bands too. I have slowly been building up my jewelry collection from this company and I am not disappointed in any of the pieces I have gotten so far at all.

I have also already given some as Christmas gifts and they were a big hit there as well.

Victoria Emerson Apple Watch Band
Here is a close up view of one of the beautiful Apple Band Watches I have from Victoria Emerson.

If you’re looking for a little more of an elevated look, they also offer some beautiful gold plated pieces too. I love the simple and underestimated look to these pieces.

And currently they are on a BOGO sale so you could definitely order a piece for you and a piece for your mom as well!

Another cute bracelet option is from Inspire Me bracelets. They offer beautiful bracelets with uplifting quotes and/or bible verses on them.

You can get them silver or rose gold plated as well and they have so many pretty natural stone options to choose from too.

This would be such a thoughtful gift to include your mom’s favorite bible verse on a bracelet! You can also use my coupon code “CHARITY1” to save 20% off your order too (until April 30th)!

Inspire Me Rose Gold Bracelet
Here is an all rose gold Inspire Me Bracelet.
Victoria Emerson and Inspire Me Bracelet
I have both Victoria Emerson and Inspire Me Bracelets layered here. You could gift them both just like this and it would be super cute!
Inspire Me Bracelet
And here is a rose gold and white marble Inspire Me Bracelet.

For The Coffee Loving Mom:

If your mom loves coffee just as much as mine does, then why not give her a coffee subscription box gift?! How cool is that idea?!

It’s definitely unique and not your traditional flower and jewelry type gift. I have shared about Tayst Coffee before with y’all but I wanted to mention it again!

You can choose different flavors of coffee, amounts, and other items like coffee mugs. Then, Tayst will package it all up and send it to her monthly so she never runs out of coffee again!

Plus, the cool thing is you can adjust every month. So you could send her the first box, and then let her choose her own coffee after the first month after trying all the flavors. I love how customizable and easy they make it!

Tayst Coffee

If this sounds like a great Mother’s Day gift idea for your mom, I have more exciting news for you. You can use my code “CharityG25” to save 25% off your subscription box with Tayst!

So not only can you give a perfect coffee loving mom gift, but you can save a little money by doing so as well. Also, did I mention that these coffee pods are 100% compostable too?!

Even better if your mom is environmentally conscious too!

For The Cook Loving Mom:

You know my love already for Caraway Home cookware (see my blog post about it for more info in case you missed it last time), so I had to include it on this list too.

If your mom loves to cook, then why not surprise her with a brand new set of cookware!? This is the best set of non-toxic and non-stick cookware I have ever had.

And they come in such fun and stylish colors too. I definitely don’t think you could go wrong with this set as a Mother’s Day gift!

The best cookware
Fry Pan and Dutch Oven
Caraway Home Pans

For The Candle Loving Mom:

Y’all knew that candles of course had to be listed on here didn’t you?! I’ve shared all about my love for Antique Candle Co plenty of times on here before.

But really these make an incredible gift. Whether you choose to gift a full size candle or a box full of different sample sized candles. You really can’t go wrong with this gift idea!

Peach Apricot Candle

I think the sample sized boxes would make a great gift idea. That way she can choose her favorites and then order a full sized one after knowing her favorite scent.

I shared more in detail about all their spring scents a few weeks ago so be sure to go check that out if your interested in learning more.

Also, if your mom isn’t a huge candle fan, did you know that they offer wax melts too?! You could definitely get her a cute wax warmer (I’ll link some cute ones below) and some yummy wax melts and that would make an incredible gift too!

Plus, the wax melts are much cheaper than the candles so that’s a win win there!

For The Work Out Loving Mom:

I wanted to include something for the work out loving moms in this Mother’s Day Gift Guide as well. I think giving the gift of an at home workout streaming option would be so much fun.

Openfit has some incredible classes such as Pilates, Barre, Yoga, Strength Training, Stretching and so much more! Plus, you get a FREE 21 day trial before actually committing to buying.

That way your mom can try out all the classes first and see if she actually likes them before buying the year membership. I personally use this app almost every single day as my workout and LOVE it.

So I highly recommend it. There’s nothing like being able to work out in the comfort of your own home.

Also, chances are if your mom is into working out, she’s also into nutrition as well. Which is why I wanted to include Goli Gummies in this category as well.

I shared all about this amazing Apple Cider Vinegar Gummy in the past, but I wanted to include it here again. They have also released their new Ashwagandha Gummy this year too.

Which is supposed to help you sleep and relax and it definitely does in my experience. Also, both gummies are gluten-free, plant based, non-GMO, and Vegan.

So if this sounds like something your mom would be interested in too, then feel free to use my code “morningsonmacedonia” to save 10% off your order.

Goli Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies
These gummies are actually so delicious. You get all the benefits of apple cider vinegar without the awful taste!

In conjunction with working out, energy is a key factor as well. Which is why Verb Energy bars would make a lovely Mother’s Day Gift for the work out loving mom too!

You can gift her a bag of energy bars for just $12. That includes a bag of her favorite flavor, plus four trial bars in the other flavors as well. So that’s a total of 16 bars for this amazing price.

I love these bars as well and eat them almost every single day. You really do get a great boost of energy from them because they are made with organic green tea and not coffee.

It’s the same as a shot of espresso (65 mg) but you don’t get the jitters from them. Verb Bars are also vegan, non-GMO, organic and only 90 calories as well!

Verb Energy Bars

For The Beauty Loving Mom:

And of course, we can’t forget beauty options on this Mother’s Day Gift Guide! What mom wouldn’t like some new skincare or some new beauty products to make her feel special with?!

I’m currently loving DIME Beauty Products as they are all natural and cruelty free products! My favorite product from them is their eyelash boosting serum.

You can get this with their boosting mascara as a bundle and that would be such a fabulous Mother’s Day present as well.

Their perfume is also amazing and you can get it in a sample size with all 3 different scents that way she can try them all out to decide on her favorite one!

Basically all of their products are amazing and you can’t go wrong with ordering anything from their site. As a bonus, you can use my code, “CharityG20” to get 20% off your order with them too!

DIME Beauty Products
Some of my favorite DIME beauty products on the tray. Their Hyaluronic Acid Serum is also amazing as well.

You guys may also remember my love for TULA Skincare products. I have been using them religiously for almost a year now and this would make such a fabulous Mother’s Day gift as well.

They have so many awesome products to choose from and the cool thing about them all is they are made with probiotics and superfoods. They are also all cruelty free as well.

If you aren’t sure what exactly to gift your mom, then they make cute little sample packs that include little minis of their most popular items.

That would be a perfect way for her to test it out and see if she really likes it or not! You can use my code “15CHARITY” to save 15% your order from them too!

I’m also linking some of my other favorite TULA products below too. Feel free to ask any questions if you are wondering about a certain product.

I have pretty much tried almost all of them and I am super impressed with them all!

Conclusion

Well, this officially wraps up my Mother’s Day gift guide. I hope y’all enjoyed it and I hope it gave you a few ideas on what to gift your mom on this special day.

If you end up getting her anything on this list, please let me know! I would love to hear what your gift idea was. Also, don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about anything on this list here!

I hope you all have a wonderful day celebrating with your sweet mamas!

    Jewelry is always a great idea. Love the cookware set too. And yes… to beauty & skincare gifts. I’ve heard a lot of good reviews about Tula. This is one skincare product I’d love to try.

    These are all great ideas! My mom would love the candles or coffee so I will have to look into both. I am very intrigued by the coffee subscription box. Thank you for the recommendation! 🙂

    Great picks. Can’t choose a favorite but if you put a roller to my head then I’d lean towards the coffee roaster and the cookware, in that order.

I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearl I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearly Natural on @amazon 🙌🏻 Usually, I keep my olive trees in these baskets on each side of our bed until Christmas, when I swap them out for Christmas trees. But now I officially have trees for FALL too… and I’m obsessed. 😂🍁

They add the prettiest deep, rich fall colors to our bedroom and instantly make the whole space feel warmer and cozier. There’s just something about bringing those autumn tones into your bedroom that makes it feel like the ultimate cozy retreat!

I’m definitely adding these to my list of favorite fall bedroom decor finds. 🍂

Are you someone who decorates your bedroom for fall too, or do you keep the seasonal decor to the main areas of your home?!

The beautiful historic houses all decked out for Halloween are seriously one of my favorite things to see. Charleston really knows how to do spooky season right!

One of my favorite things to do is simply stroll through the historic downtown streets and admire all the gorgeous homes and their festive fall decorations. 🧡

And honestly, fall is my FAVORITE time to visit Charleston, South Carolina! The weather is usually so much more enjoyable than the brutal summer heat. Although it was super rainy this weekend, I’ll take a little rain over that Southern heat and humidity ANY day! 🤣☔️

So consider this your sign to plan a fall getaway to Charleston! Between the Halloween decorations, charming historic streets, and beautiful architecture, it’s the perfect destination for an October weekend trip!

SAVE this post for your next Charleston trip! 📍 And tell me, would you rather visit Charleston in the fall or summer?!

Little Miss Riley is VERY particular when it comes Little Miss Riley is VERY particular when it comes to cat toys. I can buy her the cutest toy ever and she’ll look at me like, “And what exactly am I supposed to do with this?” 🤣

But cat scratching pads?! Those are her absolute FAVORITE. She’s just about worn her old one out, so when I spotted this adorable Halloween cat scratching pad at Target, obviously I had to bring it home for her. 🎃

After a few very thorough sniffs, an inspection, and some test scratches… we officially have Riley’s approval! 👏🏻😹

Honestly, I’m just glad I managed to buy something that passed her incredibly strict quality-control standards. 😂

Anyone else have a super picky cat?! What’s the ONE toy or cat product they actually love?
If you love ooey gooey desserts, you NEED to make If you love ooey gooey desserts, you NEED to make this Ooey Gooey Pumpkin Butter Cake this fall! 🎃🤤

Confession: I’m one of those people who would rather lick the batter or sneak some cookie dough than wait for the finished dessert. 🤣 And don’t come for me about the raw batter…I’ve been doing it my whole life and I’m still here 😜

Which is exactly why this pumpkin butter cake is one of my FAVORITE fall desserts. It’s fully baked, but the middle stays unbelievably soft, rich, and ooey gooey. 🙌🏻

You get a buttery yellow cake base topped with a creamy pumpkin layer that basically melts in your mouth. And add a big dollop of whipped cream on top?! CHEF’S KISS. 🤌🏻🎃

It’s easy to make, packed with cozy fall flavor, and would be the perfect pumpkin dessert for Halloween, Thanksgiving, or any fall gathering!

POV: you let your tuxedo cat snuggle on you while POV: you let your tuxedo cat snuggle on you while wearing a dark colored sweat set… rookie mistake. 😹

Consider this my official reminder to NEVER wear burgundy while cuddling Charlie again. 😂 One snuggle session later and my entire outfit is covered in black and white cat hair.

And the craziest part?! We literally JUST brushed her yesterday. 😬 How does one fluffy little tuxedo cat have this much fur to give?!

Being a cat mom basically means accepting that cat hair is now an accessory, your lint roller is your best friend, and you’ll be doing laundry for the rest of your life. 🤣

Thankfully, Charlie is cute enough to get away with it… and clearly VERY unbothered by the fact that she completely ruined my outfit. 😹

Tuxedo cat parents… PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one constantly covered in cat hair?! 👇🏻

10 YEARS. 🤍😭 Today is our 10 year wedding anniver 10 YEARS. 🤍😭

Today is our 10 year wedding anniversary, and I truly cannot believe an entire decade has already gone by. Somehow, it feels like we were just saying “I do,” and at the same time, I can’t imagine a version of my life without you in it.

Logan, you are my rock, my safe space, my biggest supporter, my constant encourager, and most importantly, my best friend. 🤍

This past year has probably been one of the hardest years we’ve walked through together. Between everything going on with my health, the uncertainty surrounding my job and my future, and all the unknowns we’ve had to navigate, life has looked a lot different than I ever imagined it would.

But through every hard day, every appointment, every disappointment, every fear, and every unknown, you have been right there beside me. You’ve supported me, encouraged me, taken care of me, made me laugh when I needed it most, and reminded me over and over again that I never have to go through any of it alone.

And I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fully put into words how much that means to me.

I’m so incredibly blessed that God gave me you. 🥹🤍 I would choose you over and over again in every lifetime.

Happy 10 year anniversary, Logan!! I love you more than you’ll ever know. Here’s to the next 10 years, and every single year after that. 🥂🤍

A whole decade down, forever to go. ♾️
POV: you’re overstimulated, exhausted, SUPER hangr POV: you’re overstimulated, exhausted, SUPER hangry… and then you drop your entire hot lunch on the kitchen floor 😩🤣

Because WHY do these things always happen when you’ve already hit your limit for the day?! Like that was quite literally my final straw 😂

And the best part? I had JUST cleaned the kitchen floors. Of course I did. 🙃 But at least this runner is vinyl so it’s easy to clean too thankfully! 

Nothing humbles you quite like standing in your freshly cleaned kitchen, staring at the lunch you were so excited to eat… on the floor. 😂

Just one of those real-life moments where you have to laugh so you don’t cry and keep rolling with life’s punches.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who has days where one tiny inconvenience feels like the absolute LAST STRAW?! 😩👇🏻

Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle from @antiquecandleco_ I shared last month?! Well… I’m sad to report that I’ve already burned through the entire thing 🤣 It smelled THAT good!

But honestly, one of my favorite things about this fall candle is that the beautiful amber glass pumpkin jar can be repurposed once the candle is gone. After giving mine a good clean, I turned it into the cutest little Halloween candy jar! 🍬🎃

So basically, it’s a 2-for-1: you get an amazing smelling fall candle AND an adorable reusable pumpkin jar for your fall and Halloween decor. 🙌🏻

I love finding ways to reuse seasonal decor instead of putting it away or tossing it—and this amber pumpkin looks so cute filled with Halloween candy!

Want one for your home too? Comment “CANDLE” below and I’ll send you the link! 👇🏻

POV: your bedroom officially entered its cozy fall POV: your bedroom officially entered its cozy fall era 🍂🤎

Sharing some cozy fall bedroom stills today because this room might be one of my favorite spaces I’ve decorated for fall this year! There’s just something about rich autumn colors, warm candlelight, and seasonal touches that makes a bedroom feel SO much cozier.

And can we talk about these new fall eucalyptus trees from @nearlynaturalfloral?! 😍 I feel like they completely pulled the whole fall bedroom look together. The deep, moody colors are perfect for creating that warm and cozy autumn vibe I love.

I swear I sleep better when my bedroom is decorated for the season too. 😂 Anyone else?!

And of course, it wouldn’t be fall in our house without an @antiquecandleco_ candle burning. 🕯️🍁 Their fall scents make the entire house smell like autumn perfection!

When my hubby first got this rotating watch displa When my hubby first got this rotating watch display case, I’m not gonna lie… I thought he was being a little ridiculous and extra 😂 Like, do the watches really need their own light-up display?!

Turns out… yes. Yes, they do. 🤣

Now I totally get the hype! I love the blue LED light in the background, the slow rotating display, and how it keeps his watch collection organized instead of having watches scattered all over the place. It honestly looks SO cool sitting out too!

And if you’re looking for a unique gift for a husband, boyfriend, dad, or any watch lover in your life, I feel like this would be such a good gift idea. 👏🏻⌚️ Especially for the guy who already seems to have everything!

Apparently I’m enabling the watch obsession now instead of questioning it. 😂

Would the watch-obsessed man in your life love this too?! 👇🏻

Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to look just like my Charlie?! 😹 Well apparently, I forgot to get Riley’s approval first.

Little Miss Riley discovered the finished DIY cat statue proudly displayed on the porch, and her reaction absolutely sent me. 💀 

At first, I’m pretty sure she thought we had brought home a FOURTH cat without consulting her. She kept staring at it from a safe distance like, “Ummm… excuse me?! Who is THAT?!” 👀🐈

Eventually, she worked up enough courage to jump up there and confront the mysterious imposter cat herself… only to realize it was FAKE. 🤣

And then, of course, she immediately had to play it cool like she totally knew that the entire time. 😹

Nothing humbles a cat faster than realizing she just tried to intimidate a painted statue. 😂

Cat moms, please tell me I’m not the only one whose cats get suspicious over literally ANY new piece of decor?!

I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf ball pumpkins, and I think I just found the perfect fall decor for a golfer’s man cave!

I used my Cricut to cut out some of my hubby’s favorite golf brand logos, then applied them to the pumpkins with transfer tape. That’s literally it! Such an easy Cricut fall craft, but they turned out SO cute.

You could definitely hand-paint the logos if you don’t have a Cricut…but y’all know me and my shaky hands. 😂 Painting tiny golf logos was absolutely NOT happening, so my Cricut saved the day!

Now these golf-themed pumpkins are officially my favorite piece of fall decor in my hubby’s man cave garage. Because apparently this is how you sneak fall decor into a golf-obsessed husband’s space. 😉⛳️

Honestly, I think these would be such a fun DIY golf gift idea too! If you want my full step by step tutorial, comment “golf” below and I’ll send it your way! 

Would your husband approve of these golf ball pumpkins, or would he tell you to leave his man cave alone?! 😂👇🏻

Me walking into the weekend like my to-do list isn Me walking into the weekend like my to-do list isn’t a mile long and I don’t have approximately 47 things I should be doing. 😂

Because apparently if I put on a cute outfit, walk dramatically through some twinkle lights, and simply ✨ignore my responsibilities✨… they no longer exist.

That’s how adulting works, right?! 🤣

Consider this your reminder that the laundry, emails, errands, cleaning, and never-ending to-do list will still be there later. Sometimes you just need to romanticize your life and pretend you have absolutely nothing to do for a minute. 😂

Please tell me I’m not the only one entering the weekend with a to-do list I have ZERO intentions of completing. 👇🏻

If fall had an official breakfast, I’m pretty sure If fall had an official breakfast, I’m pretty sure this would be it. 🎃☕️🍂

I made this easy pumpkin pecan coffee cake to celebrate the start of fall, and y’all… I think I just found my new favorite pumpkin recipe!

The pumpkin coffee cake itself is incredibly soft and moist with all those warm pumpkin spice flavors, but the BEST part might be that buttery cinnamon pecan streusel topping. 🤤 It gives every bite the perfect little crunch!

And despite how good it looks, this recipe is actually SO easy to make. You don’t even need a stand mixer, just a couple of bowls, a baking dish and about 10 minutes of prep!

It’s the perfect easy fall breakfast for a slow weekend morning with a cup of coffee, but it would also be SO good for a fall brunch, Thanksgiving morning or even dessert.

Basically, if you’re looking for an excuse to start baking all the pumpkin recipes… this is it. 😂🎃

Apparently my cat has forgotten how to cat. 😹 I c Apparently my cat has forgotten how to cat. 😹

I caught Toby doing a little DIY cobweb removal on the porch… except instead of just knocking the spiderwebs down, I’m pretty sure he was EATING them. 😂 Sir??? We have actual cat food inside.

I have no idea when spiderwebs became a cat snack, but apparently Toby would give them 10/10. At this point, I might as well put him to work around the rest of the house. If you’re going to eat cobwebs, buddy, at least get the ones in the corners too. 🤣

Anyone else have a cat who does the most unexplainable things?! Please tell me Toby isn’t the only one. 👇🏻

If you only make ONE pumpkin dessert this fall, le If you only make ONE pumpkin dessert this fall, let it be this one. 🎃🤤

This ooey gooey pumpkin butter cake has been one of my favorite fall desserts for YEARS, and once you see that gooey center, you’ll understand why!

It starts with a buttery yellow cake mix crust and then gets topped with the most decadent pumpkin cream cheese filling flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. And the best part? You actually WANT the middle to stay a little gooey. 👏🏻

It’s basically what would happen if pumpkin pie, cheesecake and gooey butter cake all got together and created the ultimate fall dessert. 😂

This would be SO good for a fall party, Halloween get-together or even Thanksgiving if you want something different from traditional pumpkin pie!

Save this post so you have an easy pumpkin dessert recipe ready for fall baking season. 🍂

The best season of the year is FINALLY here, and apparently fall understood the assignment because we’re supposed to get some cooler temperatures this week too! 🙌🏻

After what feels like the longest, hottest summer ever, I am more than ready for crisp fall weather, cozy evenings, changing leaves, pumpkin everything, and ALL the fall baking. 😂🍎🎃

And obviously, the first day of fall deserves to be celebrated with a homemade fall treat… so now the only question is: what should I bake today?!

Apple butter pie? Apple cider cookies? Pumpkin bread? 👀
