Along the Journey Fall Capsule Wardrobe
Do you have coreopsis planted in your gardens? I have a little patch in my herb garden just outside of my kitchen window. The color makes me think of fall. That warm, rich yellow is so pretty!
fall projects
In fact, that coreopsis got my creative mind working! I started making a wreath today that involves this color. I’ll be sharing it soon!
The first project below is a little hint of what I am working on today. Wink, wink.
It might look a little springtime-ish but those adorable pinecone flowers can be painted in any color for any season! You will love making them!
See that corn husk wreath on the right? It all started because I was packing corn husks tossed to the roadside from a tractor near our home into the pocket on my hoodie! My hoodie front pocket was stuffed!

You are going to love my recent thrift store makeover video! I made over some silver plate pieces that only cost a couple of bucks. Now I’m using them for a gorgeous vase for the brightly colored zinnias I’ve enjoyed this year.
