Hi there friends! Lets talk house. Almost everyone has one, a room that hardly gets used. We seem to have our favorite spots in the house and whether out of routine, comfort and/or habit we…
Hi there friends! There were lots of questions on my partial family room reveal, so today I am dishing! I really do love all the updates in my family room and the white walls made…
As most of you know I have been busy working on my boys rooms. It seems like these makeovers have taken me months, I have waited so long to do these rooms that I want to do it right. I don’t like to rush design, that is when I make mistakes. Plus, it is way more fun to be deliberate about the things you plan, choose and eventually select. For me the hunt is my idea of a good time, anyone else? So you can imagine my excitement when I found these stunning & playful whale prints below from Minted. Since I was/am going for a modern coastal look in Jack’s room I loved the abstract nature of these watercolor prints. I can just picture these in a beach house that has a rustic, modern aesthetic, can’t you? In any case they are just perfect, so I had to share.
Nothing says coastal summer quite like white hydrangeas, climbing soft pink roses, colorful flower beds, and well-maintained hedges. But anyone who likes to garden knows that maintaining this look or aesthetic isn’t easy. Most of…
Happy Memorial Day friends! I hope you are all enjoying your long weekend! So last week began the Inspire Me DIY Challenge, myself & 12 of my creative friends got together to inspire each other…
Whether you are someone who prefers faux plants or the real thing, I think we can all agree that artificial greenery has come a long way. The variations, hues, textures and true likeness definitely puts…

They are actually, quite cute.
Thank you J.J!
Beautiful little pumpkins, I would have never guessed that you used a roll of toilet paper for the base…..you are so creative. These could be made with any fabric.
Love how you made your own white pumpkins. They are so cute!! And I really like your chalkboard sign with all the farm stands listed.

Creative use of a roll of toilet paper. The pumpkins turned out quite cute.
So adorable and affordable!! I want to try it.
So cute, and I love the idea of the driftwood for the stem! Take care, Laura
Thanks Laura! It was a good use for all of the driftwood I collected this summer:). LOVED your project too!
I love these! The photos are gorgeous too as always. I’m sharing on my FB page today!

You are awesome, thanks Jamie!
Jen, I love your pumpkins! You are so creative…. I would never have thought of using a toilet paper roll! Love the simple, natural look. Happy October, friend! 🙂
Hi, I made these today and they turned out adorable! I made 2 sets of 3 pumpkins (2 small & 1 large in each set) and gave a set to my friend. I used a full roll of tissue for the large one. I bought a white flat sheet at thrift store and the bath tissue from dollar store so they were inexpensive. The hardest part for me was rounding the top & bottom edges. Using burlap would be cute too! Thanks Karin for a great craft; yours is my newest blog! blessings, Melody
Enjoyed making this with my sister and they are precious…..we found sticks from a recent trip that we want to use as the stems. What is the best way to disinfect them?
Hi Mary Jane,
That is awesome that you created these with your sister! I am not sure maybe a little bleach & water? Thank you! Jen
It was nice to see this post on Pinterest! I grew up on the North Fork (actually behind the Krupski’s who are family friends of ours). I have lived in TN for some time now, but the North Fork has a special place in my heart as well..no place like it! 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving!
Oh my goodness Rachel, I LOVE Krupski’s & the North Fork too!!! My husband’s family lives in Southold. You are right, it is a very special place:)! Happy Thanksgiving!!! Jen
Hi Jen,
I have been playing around getting ready for next year and this immediately caught my eye! I LOVE the pumpkins but the sign is what got me. I grew up in the Northport area and currently live on he North shore of Eastern LI just west of Riverhead (Shoreham-Wading River). The Fall on the North Fork is absolutely beautiful and I feel blessed to live close by. I look forward to following you. Happy New Year!
We love to drive to the North Fork, there are a plentitude of farms, open space and vineyards.
Class begins Oct 15th, I really hope to see you there!
