Fall is upon us, which means it is pumpkin season. I have already had several PSL's from Starbucks, but I wanted to branch out with my pumpkin drinks. We love to drink smoothies at my house, so I got the idea to make a Pumpkin Pie smoothie.

Be the Light Challenge
In this day and time, it is easy to get discouraged from all the pain, violence, and brokenness in the world. I have to admit that I try to avoid the news because it ends up making me sad and worried for my child's future. I feel like now, more than ever, the world needs more love, peace, kindness, and hope. I am excited to be partnering with 7 other bloggers for a #bethelightchallenge!

DIY Pumpkin Clock
I love to decorate for Fall and have been looking for inexpensive ways to add more pumpkins to my decor. While at Haven conference, I received a round piece of wood and a clock kit (from Walnut Hollow) in the Deco Art session. I had just been using it to stage blog photos, but one day I had an idea that I could cut it into a pumpkin shape and make it into a seasonal clock!

DIY Spooky Stepping Stones
I love to decorate for Halloween, despite the fact we generally do not get many trick-or-treaters. As a member of Rust-Oleum's Creators Studio, I received a pack of Testors Spray Chalk for a project challenge. Initially, I was kind of stumped what to do with it, other than draw on the driveway. But then I came up with an idea to make designs on our flagstone pavers, using a stencil.

Operation Christmas Child - Packing Shoeboxes of Hope
One of our family traditions each year is to pack a couple of boxes for Operation Christmas Child. If you are not familiar with this ministry, it is a part of Franklin Graham's organization, Samaritan's Purse.
"Samaritan’s Purse is a nondenominational evangelical Christian organization providing spiritual and physical aid to hurting people around the world. Since 1970, Samaritan’s Purse has helped meet needs of people who are victims of war, poverty, natural disasters, disease, and famine with the purpose of sharing God’s love through His Son, Jesus Christ. The organization serves the church worldwide to promote the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ."

Creating a Workspace in a Small Area
Our house is a decent size, but it does not have an extra room that I could use for an an office, since I do not want to give up the guest bedroom. So, I usually ended up working on my laptop at either the breakfast bar or the dining room table. Of course this caused a problem, because when we had guests over, I would have to pack up my laptop, mouse, planner, and other crap piled on the table. My goal was to find somewhere in the house where I could steal a few feet to have a proper work space.

Jack Skellington Luminary - Halloween Popcorn Box Challenge
I was thrilled when my friend Melanie invited me to be a part of the Popcorn Box Challenge, hosted by Laura Kelly Designs and sponsored by World Market. I love Halloween, so I was definitely excited to see what I could come up with! I kicked around several ideas, but once I got my package and saw the striped paper and spider brad, I knew what I had to do!

Styling a Wood Watch
A special thanks to JORD Wood Watches for sponsoring this post. I received product in exchange for this post, but all opinions are my own.
I am a watch girl, and even though I can easily see the time on my phone, I like having an old fashioned watch on my arm. Since my favorite watch (that I have had for probably 15 years) recently died, my wrist has felt naked. I tried a few of my other watches, but none were right. I like to have a watch that I can wear everyday, regardless of my style. After seeing these gorgeous wood watches by JORD on a few of my friends on Instagram, I knew I had to try one. I was lucky enough to receive one to review and give you a chance to win $75 e-gift code toward you own JORD Wood Watch!

Lately I have been inspired by all of the neutral fall decor looks I am seeing online and in magazines. I especially love the white and chalky teal pumpkins, so I decided I would put some of my Deco Art paint from Haven Conference to good use and update a few of my mini pumpkins.

Decorating a Front Porch for Fall
Fall is upon us, and even though the weather where I am is unseasonably warm, I still got in the mood to decorate for Fall. I will probably be adding some Halloween decor soon, but this is how my front porch looks for now.

Sunflower Frame Art Using Cricut Explore Air
This post contains affiliate links for your convenience
Sunflowers are one of my favorite flowers and they are the perfect colors for Fall decor. When I saw this Sunflower design in the Cricut design space, I knew I had to make something with it. I thought it would look cute in a wooden frame, sitting on the buffet in my dining room.
