DIY Magazine Leaf Art

Here's a quick, easy, and fun fall project for you today! It's also good way to recycle old magazines.
 Supplies needed: Picture frame, cardstock, magazine pages, scissors, and glue.
Find some neat patterns and textures and start cutting out leaves of all shapes! I just freehanded it and didn't try to be exact. Then glue the leaves onto the paper.
Stick your work in a frame and display!

Skirt as Dress

Long skirts (I can't get myself to call them maxi skirts. haha!) are so versatile. Most of the time you can wear them as a skirt or a dress! Just please wear a shirt or jacket on top when you're styling your skirt as a dress! ;)

I have two skirts that I like to "turn into dresses".

I like to wear this skirt as a dress because it is sooo long as in I'm-always-tripping-on-it-and-getting-scared-I'm-going-to-pull-it-completely-off long. Not good!

This skirt is a little too formfitting when worn as a skirt, but works great as dress.

Have you tried wearing a skirt as a dress?

5 things I want to do this fall

Happy October!

Enjoy this lovely poem:

I think everyone is excited about fall!

To me fall means
a break from our Texas heat,
raking leaves,
sitting on our front porch,
oil lamps & candles,
taking long walks,
harvesting pecans,
drinking tea & hot chocolate,
warm color schemes.

Here are 5 things I would like to do this fall.

1. Build an outside blanket fort and maybe even spend the night in it!

2. Make Pie in a Jar.

3. Make some fall decorations. This leaf garland would be really simple.

4. Read more books.

5. Make lattes.
