MOTIVATION MONDAY: OCTOBER

Hellooo,

Happy Motivation Monday on this first beautiful Monday of October! I love October, the crisp air,(finally in Los Angeles), the blooming sunflowers, and of course the pumpkins!!! I love decorating with pumpkins. Truth is I'm obsessed, really, I have a pumpkin problem. I can't get enough of them. I decorate with them for fall, then for Halloween and then transform them back for Thanksgiving. And no matter how old I get or how old my daughter gets we will never give up the tradition of going to a pumpkin patch. And so we did. We checked out pumpkins of all shapes and sizes, the petting zoo and we bought some fruits and veggies from the fresh farm stand but I have to admit we went to Trader Joe's after to actually buy our pumpkins, the difference between $10 - $20 and $2.99. I'm obsessed but I'm not stupid :O

Fall is a good reminder to shed the things that no longer serve us, watch the trees, they show us the way.

HELLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOO

HOLIDAY HOME STYLE:

Hey, can you believe it's almost the end of October! With Halloween fast approaching and Thanksgiving right around the corner I can't help myself from gathering and sharing, (like the Indians & Pilgrims), all of this fabulous fall stuff with you. OK so they really had to gather it and we just have to click it :)

Thanksgiving's my favorite holiday. I love mixing random objects down the center of our Thanksgiving table like these glass acorns along with different size candles, pumpkins, gourds, etc.

My favorite scent Ginger Peach

Fall Leaf Napkins

Here's a few of my previous TG table settings, this year I'm hoping to set up alfresco again. I just bought these leaf napkins and I'm going to make napkin holders out of twine and sprigs of rosemary and I'll be sharing that DIY and other table ideas at Thanksgiving week.  In the meantime it's a great time of year to up your fab quota at your home, you'll be amazed at what a few little pumpkins can do!

TODAY IN THE CLOSET:

  Have a fun and safe Halloween weekend!
