Hello World! Boy, everyone is so on the ball with their Fall decorating. As I write this, I’m halfway done with decorating. Granted, I don’t have a ton of Fall decor, but it’s been a busy couple of weeks with the hard drive crash and planning Little Dedicated’s birthday shindig. I should get it all finished tonight, that is if I don’t accidentally fall onto the couch after dinner! LOL.
Welcome to Week 192 of:
My Favorite
This post from Sweet Parrish Place really hit home with me. It’s all about cleanliness and organization. I struggle with wanting to keep my house spotless but also not missing out on moments with Little Dedicated which will never come again. For instance, yesterday I watched “The Music Man” with Little Dedicated instead of doing the dishes and laundry. I could have gotten a lot done in those 2 1/2 hours, but instead of checking off my to do list, I relaxed with my daughter. My feet and body were refreshed and I enjoyed watching Little Dedicated dance along with the dance numbers. I exchanged busyness for a joy filled time.
Craft Queen
This Painted Pinecone Sunflower Wreath is perfect for Fall. Such a great and easy craft. Meander on over to Modern on Monticello to pick up the tutorial.
Shopping Queen
Paige who is at the helm of A Junkchick Life picked up this lovely on Criagslist. Covered in Queenstown Gray, this 1900’s chest is now back to being stately and handsome!
Furniture Transformation Queen
This is such a beautiful transformation from Lolly Jane! I love the color and the floral paper is divine!
Sewing Queen
Cheerfully by Leen crocheted this gorgeous scarf and brought it to the party. It looks stunning against her tanned shoulders!
Culinary Delight Queen
Since Fall officially starts this week, it’s the perfect time to pull out our Fall soup recipes. You will want to add this Curried Butternut Squash & Pear Soup to your bevy of recipes. Run on over to Goodlicious to pick up this satisfying soup recipe.
Dessert Queen
Oh, Goodness! This Blackberry and Apple Galette from Somewhat Simple looks so delicious! Dash on over to pick up the recipe.
Tablescape Queen
Janet at Rosemary & Thyme is back with a Country Fall Tablescape! I love the layers and of course the rooster plates! Be sure to stop by to pick up the shopping details.
DIY Queen
A pumpkin made of roses! How adorable. Pop on over to Crafts a la Mode to pick up the tutorial.

I love the mix of gold accents and glitter in the home office update from Bird’s Party! Such lovely touches!
