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!

This is one of my favorite easy Cricut Halloween DIYs because it takes just a few minutes, costs almost nothing, and gives thrifted decor a fun seasonal twist. If you love vintage Halloween decor, thrift flips, and budget-friendly Halloween decorating ideas, you have to try this one! Comment “Halloween” below and I’ll send you all the details! 

Would you leave them vintage… or are you team Jack-o’-lantern? 🎃🖤

If you’re looking for easy fall coffee table decor If you’re looking for easy fall coffee table decor ideas, here’s one simple swap that completely transformed my living room for the season! 🍂🤎

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. 😂

Watching my indoor cat go into full “hunter mode” over the rabbits outside the window had me laughing so hard! 😂 And can we talk about those little back leg kicks at the end? I lose it every single time! 🤣

Poor girl is so determined to catch those bunnies… even though she’s never actually hunted anything besides a toy mouse. 😜 We’ll let her keep believing she’s the fiercest little huntress on the block.

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

I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of ou I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of our beach vacation content last week, it probably looked like we had the perfect trip. Smiles, sunsets, seafood, beach days, and we truly did make some amazing memories.
But social media rarely shows everything. What you didn’t see was my heart pounding every time I carried my beach bag down to the sand. Feeling so dizzy and nauseous that I had to run back to the condo just to throw up. Watching my heart rate skyrocket and my Apple Watch constantly sending high heart rate notifications, even while I was just sitting at dinner or relaxing on the couch. Imagine how high it gets when I’m actually doing something. You didn’t see my hands shaking so badly that putting on my makeup became a challenge.
Or the hours spent on the phone with doctors, insurance companies, and specialists trying to get referrals approved, MRIs scheduled, and answers that still haven’t come. After weeks of waiting, I finally got my brain, spine, and lower back MRIs scheduled, but they’re not until August 18. So now comes even more waiting and hoping for answers. 🙃
You didn’t see me checking my suitcase over and over, terrified I’d forget an important medication or something I might need while we were away.
And when we finally made it home? I ended up with what seemed like an allergic reaction, my right eye swelled shut, burned, and watered nonstop, my nose couldn’t decide if it wanted to be stuffed up or run like a faucet, and I topped it all off with a pounding migraine. This is the reality of living with an invisible illness.
You learn how to smile through the symptoms. You push through when you can. You rest when you have to. And you become really good at making things look “normal” even when your body is fighting you every step of the way. So if you’ve ever looked at someone’s vacation photos and thought they must have it all together, this is your reminder that you never know what someone is carrying behind the scenes.
And to my sweet hubby, thank you for giving me grace, slowing down when I need to, carrying the things I can’t, and reminding me that making memories together is what matters most ♥️
Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’ Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’-lanterns everyone wanted a few Halloweens ago? 🎃 I couldn’t justify the price, so I made my own… and they’ve been my favorite DIY Halloween decorations ever since!

They’re so easy to make, budget-friendly, and honestly look just as cozy on a porch, fireplace mantel, or front steps. If you’re looking for high-end Halloween decor on a budget, this DIY is for you!

Where To Find The Best Artificial Christmas Trees

If you know me, then you know I am completely Christmas obsessed and I have to have at least one kind of Christmas tree in every room of my house! So I figured today I would share with you all where to find some of the best artificial Christmas trees.

Especially since it is already early November and it is time to start planning your Christmas decor! If you’re in need of a new tree this year, see some of my favorite options below!

Where To Buy The Best Artificial Christmas Trees
Pin For Later!

Target’s Wonderland Christmas Trees

It’s no surprise that Target has made my list of where to find the best artificial Christmas trees! I think that Target has some great options for a low price.

And if you’re trying to stick to a budget this year, Target may be the place to check out first. For example, this pre-lit 7 foot tree below is only $96, which is an incredible deal for that size!

They also have some really cool and unique tree options as well. So if you’re looking for something non traditional, they have you covered too!

I absolutely love the shape of this one below, it’s so unique and different!

I’m also a sucker for flocked trees. Most of the trees I have in my home are flocked so I of course had to include some flocked favorites from target below too!

Target also has a great selection of smaller and table top trees as well. If you’re looking for a tiny tree for a kids room, or another area of your home, these would be some great options to consider.

Michael’s Stores Christmas Trees

Another place I love to shop for Christmas trees at is Michael’s stores. They usually have a great selection and most of the time you can find them on a great sale.

I believe that they tend to do a killer 50% off sale around Black Friday too, so hopefully that tradition will continue this year as well.

I usually get my pencil trees from Michael’s and I have several already, but I am looking to add in a few new ones. Especially since I now have a guest bedroom to decorate for Christmas too!

I will share a couple that caught my eye below.

I also love how they have many brightly colored ones to choose from this year as well. I mean how fun would that little pink tree be in a little girls room?!

I remember I had a pink tree growing up in my bedroom and it was one of my most favorite trees!

King Of Christmas Trees

Now, if you really want a high end Christmas tree, then I definitely recommend King Of Christmas Trees. I personally have one of these trees, and I am so obsessed with the quality and beauty of that tree!

These trees are a little more pricey than the above options, but you honestly get what you pay for. I believe these trees are way more fuller and more realistic like than some others I’ve seen.

This would definitely be more of an investment piece if you chose one of these trees, but it would really be worth it year after year!

This is the one I have below and I place it in my office every year. You can see more about my review of it in my King of Christmas Tree post that I did last year.

But it definitely does not disappoint and it is one of my most favorite trees!

King of Christmas has a lot of different varieties of artificial trees to choose from, and they are all so lifelike and real!

I am definitely impressed with this company and they ship fast for free in the USA as well!

King Of Christmas Garlands and Wreaths

King of Christmas also offers some beautiful garland and wreath options as well. I have one of their unlit garlands and I hang it above our bed every year.

It gives our bedroom just the right amount of Christmas flair!

You can see more about that garland in my Christmas Bedroom post from last year. I chose to get an unlit garland, and you can see the one I have below.

I mainly got unlit because I already have two pencil trees up in our bedroom and I figured that would be too much with a lit garland too!

But they do also offer several options in their wreaths and garlands as well. Such as lit or unlit and flocked or not.

I feel like you definitely get more options when you order from this company as well.

The Home Depot

So I can’t believe I have never thought to get a tree from The Home Depot before, but we got one this year!

And let me tell y’all, I am in love with it! It is so pretty and I love how it has the option to switch from the warm white color to multi color.

It also has several light options where you can make them twinkle or slow fade as well. It was also super easy to “fluff” it. You basically just pulled down a branch and it all fell into place for you!

This very well be my favorite artificial Christmas tree we have in our home this year!

I love the flocked look to it and I think it looks perfect in my woven tree collar that I got from Target too.

This also comes in the wooden option or the black option as well. It is a part of their Hearth and Hand collection and I will link it below.

Conclusion

Well I hope this gave you somewhat of an idea of where to search for Christmas trees this year if you’re in the market.

I’m not an expert, but I do have roughly 7 trees up at our house of varying sizes so I can say I do have a little experience with artificial trees lol Do you guys prefer artificial or real trees?

I love real trees for the smell of them, but prefer artificial trees because you can leave them up longer and reuse them every year. Let me know your thoughts below!

    I purchased an artificial tree after getting married a few years ago. I grew up with real trees – but I knew that artificial ones would mean a one-time investment for many years of tree use, which seemed more financially savvy. I wish I had looked at more places first, but we did get a pretty good deal in the end. I’d love one day to have a King of Christmas tree in my home (I want to have multiple trees in the future haha)!

    There are so many great places to pick up Christmas trees to match your style. I love that we’re seeing more variety with trees in different colours and themes – giving everyone the chance to create that perfect tree to match their home. We actually scored our last tree secondhand. The person that was selling it didn’t want to take the time to find the bulb that was out, so they sold the tree and a pack of spare bulbs for a fraction of the cost of a new tree – but it was still in like-new condition! Sure, it took me a bit to hunt that bulb down, but it was worth it lol

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!

This is one of my favorite easy Cricut Halloween DIYs because it takes just a few minutes, costs almost nothing, and gives thrifted decor a fun seasonal twist. If you love vintage Halloween decor, thrift flips, and budget-friendly Halloween decorating ideas, you have to try this one! Comment “Halloween” below and I’ll send you all the details! 

Would you leave them vintage… or are you team Jack-o’-lantern? 🎃🖤

If you’re looking for easy fall coffee table decor If you’re looking for easy fall coffee table decor ideas, here’s one simple swap that completely transformed my living room for the season! 🍂🤎

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. 😂

Little Miss Charlie was not impressed with those b Little Miss Charlie was not impressed with those bunnies hopping around her yard uninvited this weekend! 🐰😹

Watching my indoor cat go into full “hunter mode” over the rabbits outside the window had me laughing so hard! 😂 And can we talk about those little back leg kicks at the end? I lose it every single time! 🤣

Poor girl is so determined to catch those bunnies… even though she’s never actually hunted anything besides a toy mouse. 😜 We’ll let her keep believing she’s the fiercest little huntress on the block.

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

One thing you absolutely have to do while you’re here is eat all the fresh seafood… and yes, I may or may not have ordered Chilean sea bass THREE times this week because it was just that good. 😂🐟

For a more casual beachfront dinner, @bummzbeachcafe is another one of our go-to spots. Great food, ocean views, and the perfect laid-back beach vibes.

I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of ou I almost didn’t post this. After sharing all of our beach vacation content last week, it probably looked like we had the perfect trip. Smiles, sunsets, seafood, beach days, and we truly did make some amazing memories.
But social media rarely shows everything. What you didn’t see was my heart pounding every time I carried my beach bag down to the sand. Feeling so dizzy and nauseous that I had to run back to the condo just to throw up. Watching my heart rate skyrocket and my Apple Watch constantly sending high heart rate notifications, even while I was just sitting at dinner or relaxing on the couch. Imagine how high it gets when I’m actually doing something. You didn’t see my hands shaking so badly that putting on my makeup became a challenge.
Or the hours spent on the phone with doctors, insurance companies, and specialists trying to get referrals approved, MRIs scheduled, and answers that still haven’t come. After weeks of waiting, I finally got my brain, spine, and lower back MRIs scheduled, but they’re not until August 18. So now comes even more waiting and hoping for answers. 🙃
You didn’t see me checking my suitcase over and over, terrified I’d forget an important medication or something I might need while we were away.
And when we finally made it home? I ended up with what seemed like an allergic reaction, my right eye swelled shut, burned, and watered nonstop, my nose couldn’t decide if it wanted to be stuffed up or run like a faucet, and I topped it all off with a pounding migraine. This is the reality of living with an invisible illness.
You learn how to smile through the symptoms. You push through when you can. You rest when you have to. And you become really good at making things look “normal” even when your body is fighting you every step of the way. So if you’ve ever looked at someone’s vacation photos and thought they must have it all together, this is your reminder that you never know what someone is carrying behind the scenes.
And to my sweet hubby, thank you for giving me grace, slowing down when I need to, carrying the things I can’t, and reminding me that making memories together is what matters most ♥️
Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’ Remember those viral Pottery Barn-inspired jack-o’-lanterns everyone wanted a few Halloweens ago? 🎃 I couldn’t justify the price, so I made my own… and they’ve been my favorite DIY Halloween decorations ever since!

They’re so easy to make, budget-friendly, and honestly look just as cozy on a porch, fireplace mantel, or front steps. If you’re looking for high-end Halloween decor on a budget, this DIY is for you!
