Five things I am currently loving today (be sure to read to the end as I am hosting a special link up that you will all enjoy I think!):
1. My new cape
The color is perfect and the dark brown trim makes it pretty snazzy too!
2. Coupons
I have been bit my the coupon bug. Now, before you think I have gone crazy please note that I am NOT going to hoard items and stockpile product. I am simply buying what I already have on my list, but when it is on sale and with a coupon.
3. Wreaths
I am specifically all about ornament and boxwood wreaths right now. I have all my supplies ready to go and plan to make a pink and green version of the ornament wreath this weekend. Stayed tuned for a recap in the coming weeks!
4. Pumpkin
I am so excited that my next week will be filled with all things PUMPKIN! From the Pumpkin Spice lattes to Pumpkin Cookies to Pumpkin Ice Cream to Pumpkin Souffle to Pumpkin Pie I am going to taste and enjoy it all!
5. DIY Gift Idea Link Up
After my dear friend Muffy Martini hosted a cookbook link up a few weeks back I got to thinking that I wanted to do a holiday link up. Since Christmas is just over a month away it is time to start thinking about gifts. Of course we all know that gift giving can add up rather quickly, but thanks to Pinterest and blogs there are SO many great ideas out there for us. On Tuesday, November 29th I am hosting a DIY Gift Idea link up. What is that you ask? Well, it is the opportunity to share your DIY ideas for the upcoming holiday season with others! You can feature anything from baked treats to paper goods to arrangements to ornaments to intricate projects in a post on your blog. All the ideas shared must be items you make that others can hopefully make so you will need to include a how-to as well as a photo of the finished product. Share your ideas with others and gather new ideas just in time for the holidays! This should be lots of fun for all those involved as well as readers everywhere!

In the wreath part you say 'Stay stunned...' Typo! Very funny one tho! I cant wait to see your wreath!
I love the DIY link party idea! I'm a huge fan of the wreaths too. :)
I made a ruffly wreath the other day. Loved it!
Love the cape. I want a pumpkin latte NOW. From my favorite coffee house, Cafe Campesino, Americus, Georgia. Look it up on the Web. Better than Starbucks!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see your pink and green ornament wreath.
This is a dumb question, but is DYI different than DIY? I have seen the best DIY stuff on Pinterest and for the first time I actually feel like I'm going to be on top of Christmas shopping/assembling, this year. Just want to be sure I have the right idea :)
Amanda- it was a typo. DIY does refer to Do It Yourself!
I keep going back in forth on the cape trend and now I think I am complete on board...yours looks great! Have a great weekend and bring on the pumpkins! xx
What a wonderful idea! Love the cape, too. Is that the feather print from Elizabeth McKay that I spy under your cape? LOVE!
I love that you are couponing! I do not do it all the time like I should.. but every now and then I will get in the mood to hunt online and in the papers for useful coupons to take care of things on my shopping list! I even got a coupon organizer clutch from etsy that has come in pretty handy!! You should check them out: http://www.etsy.com/shop/clutchables?section_id=7934845
Hope you are having a wonderful night!
What a great idea! I love DIY projects but have a hard time coming up with fun ones...can't wait to see what everyone does! :)
Oooh! I'm so excited for this link up! Can't wait to see what people come up with!
