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. 😂🎃

Save this easy pumpkin coffee cake recipe for your fall baking list, and comment “PUMPKIN” below and I’ll send you the full recipe! 👇🏻

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. 🍂

We had the BEST time at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove We had the BEST time at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove this weekend watching the pros play, soaking up the gorgeous mountain views, and just enjoying such a fun day together!

There’s something extra special about a golf weekend in Asheville, NC, especially when you get to experience a beautiful course like Walnut Cove and see professional golfers in action. And while I may not know everything happening on the course 😂, I can definitely appreciate the atmosphere, the views, and a good excuse for a fun weekend out!

Western North Carolina really does have some of the prettiest places. 🤍

This is one of those tried-and-true recipes I make whenever we’re grilling because it literally goes with EVERYTHING. Burgers, BBQ, hot dogs, ribs, grilled chicken—you name it, and a big bowl of creamy potato salad belongs right beside it. 🙌🏻

And with football season officially here, this easy Southern potato salad is the perfect game day side dish for backyard cookouts, tailgates, football parties, or an easy fall weekend dinner.

It’s classic, creamy, comforting, and one of those recipes everyone keeps going back for another scoop of!

So if your ideal fall weekend involves football on the TV, something delicious cooking on the grill, and all the classic Southern sides, you need to save this one. 😍

They’re basically the same color, but totally different vibes…

✨ Dress 1: sleek + satin
✨ Dress 2: sparkly + sequined

I think I’m Team Dress 1, but my hubby is firmly Team Dress 2… so we need outside opinions before this turns into a full household debate. 🤣

Which one would YOU wear for an October cocktail attire event?!

Succulents Box

Do you love succulents?? And do you love having happy mail delivered straight to your door?? If so, you are definitely going to love The Succulents Box! They are a monthly subscription box of, you guessed it- succulents!!

They were kind enough to send me a box to review and I have to tell y’all, I am so impressed with them! The succulents are so cute and arrived in excellent condition. So if you’re a crazy plant lady like me, you’re going to want in on this!

Succulents Box
Look at how great they look in my painted terra cotta pots too!

Receiving Your Succulents

I was highly impressed with how well packaged the succulents were! They arrived very quick and in perfect condition. If you just received your succulents from The Succulent Box too, then there are a few things to note when opening them:

  • Do not put succulents in sunlight immediately. They will need to adjust gradually.
  • Keep plants in shade or indirect sunlight and then slowly introduce them to direct sun.
  • They prefer daytime temperatures of 70 and 85 degrees. Make sure to shade them if your climate is hotter.
  • Water only when the soil is dry!
    • In summer, water generously every 1-2 weeks
    • In winter, cut back to just once a month

Ordering Your Succulents

So you get to choose what succulents you want to receive! And of course I have a coupon code for y’all to try to! Did you really think I would share a product with you all without giving you a coupon code?! Even cooler, I have two options for you to choose from!

You can get $5 off your first box with the code “5OFF” or you can get 10% off your total with the code “HAPPYPLANT10” too!

Succulents
Here they are next to my other succulents that I have in a vintage toolbox!

Red Lion Sepervivum

This succulent is beautiful, although it isn’t very red upon first glance. If you look closely, you can see a light red hue to it. But it is not a vibrant shade. I am not sure if it grows more into a red color or not, I guess we will see as time goes on! Here is all the info on the Red Lion:

  • Full or partial sun
  • Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch, and then let drain completely.
  • Reduce watering to a minimum during the winter
  • Likes gritty, sandy soil

Blue Atoll Echeveria

This succulent is large and beautiful! I love how it looks in my painted terra cotta pot too. Here are all the recommendations for the Blue Atoll:

  • Full or partial sun
  • Only needs occasional water
  • Needs a well-drained succulent mix
  • Generally non-toxic to humans and animals
Blue Atoll Succulent

Ramilette Echeveria

This is your classic green looking succulent. Cute and tiny and just so adorable no matter where you plant it! Here is all the basic info for Ramilette:

  • Full or partial sun
  • Avoid letting water sit too long in the rosette to prevent rot and fungal diseases
  • Likes a well drained succulent mix

Rubrotinctum Jelly Bean Sedum

I saved my favorite for last! How fun is this succulent y’all?! I just love the shape to it and how it looks just like jelly beans! If you want one too, here is all the care and tips you need to know for it:

  • Full sun
  • Water deeply when soil is dry to the touch and then let it drain completely
  • Likes soil that is well aerated

    I went to a wedding once, and the favors were little boxes of succulents. I love the light green shades most of the plants come in, and the different star shapes. I often feel like succulents embody living origami!

    I think I’ll finally try it though. You’re right, you can never have too many plants!

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?! 😂👇🏻

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. 😂🎃

Save this easy pumpkin coffee cake recipe for your fall baking list, and comment “PUMPKIN” below and I’ll send you the full recipe! 👇🏻

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. 🍂

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? 👀

We had the BEST time at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove We had the BEST time at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove this weekend watching the pros play, soaking up the gorgeous mountain views, and just enjoying such a fun day together!

There’s something extra special about a golf weekend in Asheville, NC, especially when you get to experience a beautiful course like Walnut Cove and see professional golfers in action. And while I may not know everything happening on the course 😂, I can definitely appreciate the atmosphere, the views, and a good excuse for a fun weekend out!

Western North Carolina really does have some of the prettiest places. 🤍

This is one of those tried-and-true recipes I make whenever we’re grilling because it literally goes with EVERYTHING. Burgers, BBQ, hot dogs, ribs, grilled chicken—you name it, and a big bowl of creamy potato salad belongs right beside it. 🙌🏻

And with football season officially here, this easy Southern potato salad is the perfect game day side dish for backyard cookouts, tailgates, football parties, or an easy fall weekend dinner.

It’s classic, creamy, comforting, and one of those recipes everyone keeps going back for another scoop of!

So if your ideal fall weekend involves football on the TV, something delicious cooking on the grill, and all the classic Southern sides, you need to save this one. 😍

I have an event coming up in October that calls for cocktail attire, so naturally I found TWO cocktail dresses I love and now I can’t decide which one to wear. 😂

They’re basically the same color, but totally different vibes…

✨ Dress 1: sleek + satin
✨ Dress 2: sparkly + sequined

I think I’m Team Dress 1, but my hubby is firmly Team Dress 2… so we need outside opinions before this turns into a full household debate. 🤣

Which one would YOU wear for an October cocktail attire event?!

Consider this your reminder that Halloween cookies Consider this your reminder that Halloween cookies do NOT have to be complicated! Just add colorful sprinkles and candy eyeballs to sugar cookies and suddenly you’ve got the cutest little monster cookies. 👀🎃

I love making homemade sugar cookie dough, but if you’re short on time? Grab the store-bought dough. I fully support taking the shortcut. 😂👏🏻

These easy Halloween monster sugar cookies would be so cute for a Halloween party, spooky movie night, kids’ Halloween treat, or just a fun weekend baking project.

Minimal effort + maximum spooky cute. That’s my kind of Halloween baking! 👻

Would you make these with homemade cookie dough or take the store-bought shortcut?! 👇🏻

The second I saw this black cat in the Target Hall The second I saw this black cat in the Target Halloween decor section, I knew exactly what I had to do… turn it into Charlie. 😹

Obviously, I couldn’t just leave this little black cat statue as-is when I have my very own fluffy tuxedo cat at home! So I grabbed some paint while I was at Target and came home for a little Halloween craft night with my very attentive supervisor. 😂

And when I say Charlie supervised… I mean she watched VERY closely to make sure I got her likeness just right. 👀

I used white paint to recreate her adorable tuxedo face, pink for her little nose, and green for her eyes. Her eyebrow whiskers came out slightly wonky, but honestly… hers are a little wonky in real life too, so we’re calling that accuracy. 😂

When the DIY cat statue was finally finished, Charlie inspected my work and… well… I’m not sure she was impressed. 😹
Obviously she knows she’s MUCH prettier in person, so her Target Halloween decor dupe simply wasn’t up to her standards.

But I think it turned out absolutely adorable! 🐈‍⬛🎃 This was such an easy and fun way to personalize inexpensive Halloween decor and make it look just like your own pet.
Now I need to know… would you paint one to look like your cat?! 👇🏻

🍎 Don’t let those fresh orchard apples go to waste 🍎 Don’t let those fresh orchard apples go to waste! Freeze them instead! 😉

Have you ever tried freezing fresh apple slices?! This is one of my favorite fall kitchen hacks, especially after a trip to the apple orchard! 🍏

Every fall, I come home with WAY more apples than we could possibly eat before they go bad 😂 So instead of letting them sit on the counter, I prep and freeze a big batch of apple slices to use all season long!

It takes a little extra time upfront, but having fresh apple slices ready in the freezer makes fall baking SO much easier. 🥧 You can grab exactly what you need whenever you’re craving apple pie, apple crisp, apple cobbler, apple bread, or any of your favorite cozy apple recipes!

Plus, it’s such an easy way to preserve those delicious fresh-picked apples from the orchard and enjoy them long after apple season is over. 🙌🏻🍎

Want to know how to freeze fresh apples the right way so they’re ready for all your fall baking?!

Comment “APPLES” below and I’ll send you my full step-by-step guide! 🍎❄️

There’s just one tiny problem… I can’t dance to sa There’s just one tiny problem… I can’t dance to save my life, I’m not Mormon, I’m not a mom, and I’m pretty sure binge-watching every season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives does NOT count as an application. 🤣

But seriously… why do all the Mormon wives look SO cute in their matching sweat sets?! Like they just casually throw one on and look effortlessly put together.

Meanwhile, most sweat sets have me looking like an oversized pumpkin with a drawstring. 🎃😂

BUT THIS ONE?! 👏🏻

This Aerie sweat set might finally be my MomTok moment because I’m obsessed. It’s comfy, cute, and actually makes me feel put together while still basically wearing pajamas, which is exactly the kind of fashion I support. 😂

And obviously, the only appropriate activity while wearing it is binge-watching the new season of SLOMW. 👀

So… who else already blew through the entire season?! 😂 I need to know ALL your thoughts because I have opinions. Drop yours below! 👇🏻

POV: you made the cutest DIY Halloween decor witho 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?!

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. 😆

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?! 🎃
