Cottage Bungalow Fall Tour

By 1 Comment

I have a special post for you today from my dear friend, Julie from Redhead can Decorate. She has been honored to have her home featured in Cottages & Bungalows Fall Tour.

Julie received an e-mail from the editor of Cottages & Bungalows.

In the email, the editor asked if Julie would be interested in having our home photographed the following week for next years (2016) Cottages & Bungalows Fall Home Tour edition.  She was referring to the week of Thanksgiving!  You know, the week all the Fall stuff goes bye bye and you start preparing for Christmas. So, she had a big decision to make.  At first she thought, no way.  She can’t do it.  Then she slept on it.

Welcome to another Inspiration Monday Party! We are so glad you are here to party!
I just can’t get enough of fall! How about you? I’m still waiting on those consistent fall temperatures in the south.
This week’s features from the party are all about…..

Creating a Cozy Fall Home

It’s all about the look, feel, scents and tastes of the season this week.

Speaking of party, did you know that we are also now a “dual platform” link party? That means we are sharing the love here on our blogs and on Instagram, as well.
Here’s how to play…
Tag and follow all of your hosts on Instagram:

Add the tag #InspirationMondayParty to all of your inspiring favorites throughout the week. Next week, we will each pick our faves and feature them on Instagram.
It’s that easy.
