I’m really just finding it very hard to believe that we are in the last few days of 2014! What a wonderful year it has been! We have experienced a lot of victories, personal triumphs, memories, vacations, but even more importantly, disappoints and hard times. When we go through hard times, it really makes us appreciate the good! Don’t you agree?

I wanted to put together a post of my most popular blog posts of 2014! I have had another wonderful year of blogging and looking forward to 2015 and what it has in store for me! I’m hoping the New Year has some wonderful things in store for you too!

As always, I want to “thank you” for visiting and supporting my blog! This is my little spot to share my favorite things and passions with you!!

Thanksgiving Tablescape

November 19, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: centerpieces, diy, fall, home decor, natural decor, tablescapes, Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving centerpiece, Thanksgiving tablescape 11 Comments

I am super excited for Thanksgiving this year! We have been so busy with work, extracurricular activities, traveling, school, home projects and more, that it seems we’ve not got to spend much time with family. I can’t wait to spend time with everyone on Thanksgiving! We will be hosting dinner at our house, so it’s been fun playing around with my tablescape for this year! I’ve teamed up with some lovely ladies who are also sharing more tablescape ideas and yummy recipes to try this Thanksgiving, check them out below!

Thanksgiving
This Fall I’ve opted for a more natural, simple setting. I got my pumpkins, squash and gourds early in the season, so at this point they are beginning to turn colors and age, but that just brings out the beauty in this tablescape. Adding greenery to the mix also makes the setting more inviting. I added some dried branches to a porcelain pitcher to add some height to the table. More than likely the day before Thanksgiving I will buy some fresh greenery and flowers. You can never go wrong with fresh flowers!

My favorite part about this tablescape is the paper leaves I cut out using my silhouette. Each leaf has a bible verse written on it that relates to being thankful. My plan is to have family read them before we pray. I think this  is a special way to express just how thankful and blessed we all are! Adding meaningful touches to your tablescape will always wow your guests! Also, in the background, on my buffet, you will see ‘our thankful tree‘ I shared last year!

I hope each and every one of you have a very blessed and memorable Thanksgiving this year!

Hello gorgeous! If you follow me on Instagram and Facebook, you know that my hubby and I are in the Bahamas right now! I can’t wait to update you on how our trip went! I’m still in full swing of everything Fall! So today I’m sharing with you some beautiful, neutral inspiration! I love bringing natural elements from outside into the house as part of the decor! Don’t be afraid to snip those changing hydrangeas, a branch from your favorite tree or boxwood leaves! They add incredible character to your decor!

DIY Spooky Bat Banner

October 22, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: banner, crafts, diy, DIY banner, fall, Halloween, Halloween banner, halloween decor, home decor 24 Comments

Do you decorate for Halloween? Typically, I don’t, I just decorate for Fall in general. Last year I shared my first Halloween mantle I created for the kids costume party we were having. This year we planned a Fall fire with friends and I wanted to make a cute, quick little banner to display outside! This banner took me under 15 minutes, no joke!
Using my silhouette machine, I downloaded a set of bats for $0.99! I arranged the set of (4) bats on the page. I used 5 pieces of black construction paper and got to work! One piece of construction paper fit the 4 bats perfectly. Once they were all cut out, I grabbed my heated glue gun and began to attach them to my fishing line in different directions creating a pattern. I did this for the full length until my bats were gone. My particular banner is rather long, but that’s the way I wanted it! I took it outside and taped it into place on our barn. It was perfectly windy, so it made the bats appear to be flying! The kids loved it! This is a cute staple piece that we will add to our Halloween decor for years to come and it was so simple to make!
Sharing this project on these lovely blogs!

Hello gorgeous and welcome!! I’m ecstatic that the weekend is finally here! I bet you are too 😉 Do you have anything special planned for the weekend? No big plans here… We are scheduled to have our family Christmas pictures taken and go to the pumpkin patch, as long as the weather permits! Whatever it is you and your family are doing, I hope it’s great!
This week I’m sharing with you my slight obsession with plaid! I just can’t seem to get enough of it lately! Whether it be blankets or fashion, I’m all about it! I think it just screams coziness for Fall! Come see what I mean…
