Falling into Fall


October is here!  Something about fall makes me very ambitious to try all the DIY home projects and crafts I've been procrastinating on all summer because of the heat.  Having a small apartment with two other room-mates can be difficult because of conflicting styles and taste preferences, but luckily my room-mates pretty much give me free reign with decorating.  Here are some the projects I will (or at least would like to) tackle this week:




1. A canvas inspired by Kate Spade dinnerware.  How cute is this!? And it looks pretty easy (full tutorial here)



2.  Purchasing an old window from Architectural Salvage of Greensboro and filling it with pictures.


3. A pom pom garland.  I think this would require a lot of patience but finished, it would look great over our kitchen table draped over lights.


4. And finally, What October to-do list would be complete without pumpkin carving?  This chevron pumpkin is so different and would add a touch of class to a silly holiday.


Wish me luck this week! My (very) full to-do list can be seen on my Pinterest
