Serious Autumn-ness going on, friends! The giant maple trees outside of my house are turning bright yellow and look like enormous pom-poms! I love it and a sure sign of Autumn. Last week we visited the pumpkin patch with the kids and seasonal squash, local apples and even a few persimmons are finding there way in our weekly CSA box.
Today I am inspired by... Autum-ness. So cozy. This is what I am thinking:
candles | autumn apple cider champagne sangria | pears | boozy pie bites
Do you decorate for Halloween ... Autumn or Thanksgiving? We go to the pumpkin patch every year with the kids and I end up getting a few extra gourds and mini pumpkins to decorate with in addition to the pumpkins the kids pick out to carve.
Other than that, I have not done much. This year, however I am inspired by the typography on pumpkins, especially the first image with the letter H. Classy. And? A wax dipped leaf garland will be hard to pass up... and a fun project to do with the older kids.
What sorts of Autumn-ish projects do you do?

Oh, happy Autumn! It's still warm here in Portland (surprise, surprise!) but after a wonderful summertime, I am looking forward to the coziness that Autumn always brings.
I recently contributed a new DIY post on Simple Design, an Autumn Gift Basket! A festive seasonal treat (hello caramel hazelnut pears!) that is easy to make, easy on the budget and only takes a smidge of time to assemble.
