Simple Line Patterns with Back Stitch

Simple Line Patterns With Back Stitch | {Lovely Messes}
I wish I had more time to work on embroidery. I love the simplicity and the sketch-like look. (Another #write31days series.)


Make your bedroom a sanctuary (31 days to Love the Home You Have) | {The Frugal Homemaker}
This is really an area I need to work on. My dresser clutter is out of control, and I’m reaching the point where I need to be honest that the dresser I’m using really isn’t big enough. I either need to get rid of (quite) a few things or get a bigger dresser. But finishing the kitchen needs to come first.


31 Days to a Fabulous Room Makeover Series | {Thrift Diving}
I’ve been reading along in this series even though I’m a little further along in the process on my kitchen. (The drywall is up! The sanding is done! It’s painting time…) There have been several tips along the way that I hadn’t considered, like just moving the clutter initially and waiting to declutter until after the space is redone. Which is what I have done and is why half my kitchen items are scattered hither and yon (or, well, living room and garage, but yeah.)


Make Your Home Smell Good: Fall Simmers | {Clean Mama}
So I spent most of today with apples simmering into applesauce in the crock pot, so our house smells like fall and apple pie. Even though it was nearly 100* outside, it felt just a little bit like fall. I was excited to see this post because I love the associations I have with how the house smells, that add another layer to the holidays.
