Labor Day weekend has arrived! The unofficial end of summer and the unofficial beginning of fall. We are hoping to sprinkle a little of both into our weekend. We went on a little ice cream date last night before enjoying an quiet evening at home. I’m grateful for some quiet. And I’ve had a lot of fun rounding up some things for you! Enjoy!
ONE.
I don’t know that Ryan would think this is the best
vacation on the planet…and in fact, I am confident he would NOT think this is
the best vacation on the planet…but I think it sounds grand. Hobart, New York.
Have you heard of it? Apparently it is a small town – to the tune of
400 people – with seven bookstores. What an amazing ratio of people to books! I’d love to spend a day (or
ten) there. Wouldn’t you?
TWO.
Audrey from Putting Me Together wrote about having a color palette
for your wardrobe, and I have to say,
learning this from her a few years ago was an absolute game changer for me. Not
only have I learned more about what colors do and do not look great with my
hair color and skin tones, but I’ve learned how to buy things that mix and match
well so I have more options with a smaller number of items.
THREE.
Anyone need pointed in the direction of a good sale? SkinnyTaste has this list of some great kitchen-related items that are on sale for
Labor Day weekend! BONUS: And here’s another curated list of some sales on Amazon. (Some SUPER cute stuff on it that
tempted me for sure!)
FOUR.
You know how we’re working hard to eat healthier? This link isn’t it. But whoa. If you need a fast, fun, cute snack, this IS
it. It’s an entire snack mix made up of mini cookies and candies. Adorable
beyond words, quick to assemble (because you don’t have to cook ANYTHING), and
I’m pretty sure the only complaint you’ll get is the sugar crash that follows!
FIVE.
I think I’ll be bringing out the fall stuff this weekend. I
like to decorate for Christmas early (because it’s so much work) so I lose part
of November from the fall décor season. I like to make it last through
September, October, and the first part of November before I move along to decking
the halls for Christmas! This post has a TON of ideas for all things fall! Printables,
planners, décor, and more!
SIX.
I enjoyed going to the Flower Patch throughout this summer
to pick flowers for our home. Though I’m not super skilled at flower arranging,
I did my best, but sometimes I wished I had a flower frog (a piece that helps
hold the flowers in place), but I don’t. This post has a tutorial for making one with baking clay. I love a good DIY, so
I’m sharing it with you, too!
