DIY Reversible 2x4 Craft
Sunshine and a Summer breeze

I feel like when it comes to seasonal decor, I'm kind of a minimalist.
I honestly think I don't like a lot of knick-knacks and stuff because my boys already leave so much crap everywhere they go that it just looks like it's adding to the clutter...
Does anyone else have this problem??

CARAMEL APPLE BREAD PUDDING
Somewhat Simple

There’s just something so comforting about bread pudding. Apart from it being a great way to use bread that’s a little past its best AND super easy to make, you can go wild with flavor combinations and it just fills you with warmth as soon as you bite into a bit.

Candy Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Joy.Food.Sunshine

Do you realize there are only two weeks until Halloween? Honestly, I could totally live without this holiday.  I could go on and on about why I don’t love it…but I’ll spare you {you’re welcome! 😂}, and instead, I choose to make the most of it…with this recipe for Candy Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars! Need a way to use all that extra Halloween candy? Want dessert and don’t want to decide between cookies or a Reese’s {or snickers or twix}? Then today is your lucky day.

Pumpkin Nut Roll Recipe
Ann's Entitled Life

Bake a pumpkin nut roll for the holidays, special occasion or anytime. Your friends and family will love this beautiful and delicious pumpkin dessert – a fantastic alternative to pumpkin pie.

Painted Pumpkins: Fun Fall Crafts for Kids
Garden Therapy

Painting pumpkins is an easy project that will last a lot longer than a carved pumpkin, especially in climates that are still toasty warm in the fall. Sketch some silly faces or favourite things and get crafty! This DIY shows you how to prep, paint, and seal painted pumpkins so they will weather the, well, weather.

FALL DRINK: PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE RECIPE
Stagetecture

Pumpkin Spice Latte hot drinks are the best during the fall and winter seasons. Don’t you just enjoy the fall season and making pumpkin recipes? From the warm colors, to the spiced scents and the cool air that gives us a break from the summer heat. It can all be so wonderful, however, I believe that the number one area we tend to fall for this season are the recipes, and this one definitely does not fall short. Pumpkin spiced lattes have warmed our bodies and taste buds with their warm rich sweet pumpkin and cinnamon flavors, that taste like autumn in a cup.

Caramel Apple Cheesecake Recipe in a Jar

She Saved

This apple cheesecake recipe is a new twist on an old favorite or actually, an entirely new way to enjoy both a caramel apple and an apple pie, right? We love the single serving sizes and also the fact that you can make individual portions to serve as many or as few as needed. These are darling desserts for parties too and they will definitely make a fun statement on your party table.

RUSTOLEUM CHALKED SPRAY PAINT 
QUICK-OVERS & AN UPDATE
Deanie’s Stash

Welcome back to my blog. Today I am showing you some more quick-overs using the Rustoleum Chalked Spray Paint. You read here that I made over a few items after discovering this wonderful spray paint.  Today I am here to tell you an update on that post. Previously I had tried wax and some topcoats that I had laying around and was only partially satisfied. The results were okay but not fabulous. Today I want to tell you that I found the perfect protective topcoat for this paint.

How to Create a Succulent Planted Pumpkin
Cottage in the Oaks

In my last post I shared our fall centerpiece for this year, which include a pumpkin planted with a succulent or two. Today I thought I’d share how I did that. It’s a lovely arrangement, so easy, and a wonderful gift idea, too.

It’s Been A Long Time Since I’ve Seen A Fall
H2O Bungalow

Hey guys!  I’m leaving the beach behind for a while and spending some time up north.  Just like a kid in a candy store, I’m loving the sights, scents and pretty much everything about being here.  There’s nothing quite as good as going home.  To me, the closer I get to family and familiar places, the happier I begin to feel.  I love the feeling of “I’m going home”.

Feathered Chalkboard Pumpkin Topiary
The Kim Six Fix

It wouldn't be halloween if I didn't create at least a few dollar store pumpkin makeovers, and this year is no exception.   Once I again I swung down to the dollar store, picked up some styrofoam pumpkins and masked the day-glo orange color with a fun redesign.

Apple Pie Pizza Recipe
By Ann

If you love the great taste of apple pie, you will love this easy to make apple pie pizza recipe. This simple to make dessert pie has an amazing and enticing aroma and truly tastes delicious. Your whole family will enjoy the great taste of this apple pie pizza.

Pecan Toffee Cinnamon Monkey Bread with Icing
The It Mom by Daisy Teh

Got it! The amazingly yummy Pecan Toffee Cinnamon Monkey Bread with Icing recipe has been curated, tried, and tested and is exactly what you need in your life for your upcoming special event or to serve up with your family. I remember when I was first introduced to Monkey Bread during a Christmas party and thought it was the most amazing recipe invented. It’s so delicious and sweet! It’s a cross between a cinnamon roll and bread. But don’t take my word for it – make it yourself, try it for yourself and then you’ll thank me later!

PUMPKIN BUNDT CAKE WITH CINNAMON CREAM CHEESE GLAZE
Annie's Noms

My Pumpkin Bundt Cake is soft, sweet and spicy. Filled with a whole can of pumpkin and topped with a creamy cinnamon cream cheese glaze, it’s sublime!
