Falling into Fun Autumn Days Again!

Hey y’all, it’s #sweaterweather season! Fall is one of my favorite seasons of the year because there is so many great things to do. Some of my favorite things are sitting back to watch football and Halloween movies, go apple picking, wearing all my trendy sweaters and boots, and having pumpkin spice everything. Fall is also a great time to get crafty, especially with all the beautiful colors and textures of harvest season.

Pumpkin Spice Lattes and Cinderella Frappuccinos season is here!

I love Iced Pumpkin Spice Lattes and Frappuccino's. You can always see me at Starbucks buying one. A few days ago my coworker told me I should order a Cinderella Frappuccino. So I went to Starbucks and ordered one and I instantly fell in love. If you haven’t tried it go and order one. The simplest way to get a Cinderella Latte is to order a Pumpkin Spice Latte and sub in White Chocolate Mocha Sauce for half the pumps of Pumpkin Sauce. #pumpkinspice and every nice.

Melted Crayon Pumpkin Decorating

It’s time to take a trip to the and pick out a pumpkin to decorate. This is a unique way of decorating a pumpkin All the things you will need for this project are your pumpkin, crayons, tacky glue, and a blowdryer. Before you begin, remove all the labels from your crayons, and break them in half ; you won’t need the entire crayon to get a cool result. Glue your crayons in place with the Tacky Glue because the surface is contour, the crayons won’t stay in place without some glue. Place your crayons around the pumpkin. You can either choose to do this all at the same time, then wait to heat or heat as you go. Apply heat on high using a hair dryer. It takes 30secs-1min for each of the crayons to melt and drip. This is a great project for those who don’t like carving or are wanting a unique pumpkin alternative.

Maple Leaf Mason Jars

This beautiful craft transforms ordinary leaves and glass jars into festive #harvest lamps for indoors or out. I did this last year and I got a lot of compliments, so I figured I would share it. You’ll need a few mason jars, some Mod Podge, sponge brush, and either real or fake leaves. First, make sure the outside of your jar is clean.  Then make sure your leaves are malleable because stiff leaves won’t stick. To decoupage, dip your brush in the Mod Podge and paint a thin layer on a section of the jar.  Once that layer becomes quite sticky, place a leaf on the jar.  Paint more Mod Podge on top of the leaf in thin layers, making sure to smooth out the edges. Don’t be afraid to use your fingers to smooth out the leaf so that it is fully secure.  Layer more leaves on top, filling the jar with as many as you desire. Finish the top off with some raffia or ribbon to complete the look.
