vintage style, cottage living, home cooking
Good morning and happy Thursday! I am happy to be here along with LOTS of other bloggers sharing our knockoffs, Holiday Edition. As you might know, I collect nativities. I have since I was first married. I TRY to get a new one each year.
I am loving metallic right now and priced this beauty. But it was not meant to be. (I am a cheapskate and, I love a good deal) SO, I thought, “Why not make my own Silver Inspired Nativity.”
Looking Back at September is going to be a delight and a lot of fun for me today. I had a wonderfully busy month not only on my blog, but with family and friends, too. I am blessed to be able to share some of that with you here today.
While I was in Cali, I found a vintage window frame to add to my mantel/headboard.
I made a Fall Book Page wreath for our front door.
Using some wood scraps from another project, I made my own version of pumpkins. Yes, there HAS to be a blue one. (HUGE smile!)
I was on a blog tour with 29 other bloggers. I was able to show my Blue and White Fall decor ideas.
I hosted the FIRST ever #BestofDIY Link party with 27 bloggers total. I am still blown away by the response and the INCREDIBLE projects that were linked up.
I have been looking for a new lamp, and didn’t like the price, so I made my own DIY Lamps Plus Inspired Gold Lamp with DIY Burlap Lampshade.
One of my favorite posts was:
I am Brave and Beautiful
In-between there are many more posts, Inspiration Monday link parties and lots of love.
Thanks for visiting my blog while I am Looking Back at September. (Since it is almost November)
Make it a fabulous Wednesday!

It’s great to be with you today. I am always excited for Themed Furniture Makeover Day. This day is such a fun day of the month. There are many bloggers that get together today and share their latest furniture makeover.
This post was updated October 2025.
It’s always fun to see the ideas and interpretation of each makeover.
In the past I have shared:
Decoupaged Book Page Book Case
My Grandparents Bedroom Furniture Makeover
Today the theme is: Words or Letters.
Things are getting back to normal around our house. I am doing laundry, sewing, and cooking for Hubby since I was gone for so long. Now I am back and ready to show you Birds and Birdhouses, My Collection (Maybe an Obsession)
I have always liked birds. Birds and Birdhouses in Home Decor. Wow. While I was thinking about writing this post, I realized just how many birds and birdhouses I have.
