I couldn't find exactly the right thing to hang in

I couldn't find exactly the right thing to hang in this one particular spot so I borrowed my daughter's watercolors to paint this sweet little pumpkin. It looks so cute and cozy - I kind of want to leave it up all year. 🧡 There's something about a pumpkin that gives me all the fall cozy vibes - What about you? 🧡🍂🍁💛 #pumpkin #pumpkins #fall #cozy #fallvibes #cozyvibes #watercolor #paintedpumpkin #art #fallart #fallwatercolor

This is the crocheted Log Cabin throw I made for my youngest son. I love crocheting and find it so fun and relaxing to work on projects in the evenings. This pattern is easy to follow, and working on smaller blocks was quick and fun! My younger daughter wants one, too, in her favorite shades of pink. ❤ I can't wait to go yarn shopping! #crochet #yarncraft #yarn #logcabinquilt #crochetersofinstagram #yarnlove #craft #handmade #crafty #crocheting #crochetblanket #crochetlove

I grew Blue Jarrahdale, Red Warty Things, and Ghost White pumpkins in my garden ... but not a single one of my Jack 'o Lantern 🎃 varieties survived the summer heat and the squash bugs. 😥 I knew I'd have to buy those for Halloween carving fun. So when my Aldi store had them for $2.75, and they were selling for $6 to $8 every other place I looked - I snatched these beauties up! But, I can't really take credit for how perfect the pumpkins are - my Instacart shopper did all the picking and she did an amazing job. Never underestimate the amazing Aldi! #pumpkins #pumpkin #jackolantern #pumpkincarving #fallpumpkins #Aldi #ilovepumpkins #pumpkinseason

I didn't want to spend a lot on new decor this fall, or add more 'stuff' to my already overflowing storage building.😟 But I needed a little something special to style the shelf under my TV stand. Luckily, I had some yarn leftover from a project so I made these adorable pumpkins! They are so cute, quick, and easy to make ... What could be more perfect for fall? 💛🍁🍂🧡 Next time you're tempted to go buy new decor, stop! ✋ Take a minute to look around your house and maybe use something you already have or make something unique for your space. I know all the beautiful seasonal decor in stores and on social media is a huge temptation. But the satisfaction and joy you'll get from making a Custom item for your home (not to mention the $$ you'll save!) can't be beat! 🏆 How are you making your space cozy for fall on a budget? 🧡🍂🍁💛🍂🍁🧡 #fall #falldecor #falldecoronabudget #crochet #pumpkins #cozy #cozydecor #thatfarmmama #crafted #diy #diyfalldecor #cozyfalldecor #cottagestyle #falldiy #homemade #fallpumpkins #yarncraft #yarnpumpkins

They don't call us the Sunflower State for nothing

They don't call us the Sunflower State for nothing! 🌻💛🌻💛🌻 On my drive to town, I enjoy seeing their cheerful faces all along the roadsides. I'm like these wild sunflowers - always turning toward the sun. ☀️ These golden days leading into fall are my favorite. There is no nip in air yet, but I know it's close and I'm anticipating in the best, most wondrous way. Happy Autumn Eve! 💛🍁🧡🍂💛 #sunflower #wildsunflowers #countrylife #autumneve #almostfall #fallisnear #sunshine #thatfarmmama #endofsummer #byebyesummer #september

Tomorrow is the last day of July and then ... my f

Tomorrow is the last day of July and then ... my favorite month of the year! I am, in general, not a fan of summer. I don't like the heat, humidity, or bugs. But I love the relaxed, easy feel of this season. August marks my 50th summer on Earth. 😳 And while I am really getting excited for fall 🍁🍂🧡, I'm determined to squeeze all the joy I can out of what's left of this half-century summer. 🥰😎 #summer2021 #summer1971 #summertime #summervibes #summer #chalkboard #summerfun

My #containergarden harvest from yesterday. 😋 T

My #containergarden harvest from yesterday. 😋 The watermelon was not quite ready, but thanks to the 🦝 getting into them overnight, this one was lying on the ground and I couldn't bear to waste it. I lost 3, but thankfully there are several more on the vines and my guys finally put up a protective fence. 🙌 Even slightly underripe, this Blacktail Mountain variety was pretty sweet. All the greens on the right are New Zealand Spinach. It is growing so well for me, even through the 100°+ temps and 20+ mph wind. It's a bit milder than actual spinach and my people seem to be enjoying it. It finally cooled down enough for my tomatoes to start turning - they've been on the vines and green for 3 weeks! So far, I'm pleased with most everything except my pole beans - the darn deer kept biting them off and I need to replant - again. 🙄 But the cukes, squash, tomatoes, greens, and melons seem to be thriving. I have 8 😳 eggplants on my 4 little plants and I'm excited to harvest them soon. Are you growing a garden this summer where you live? Do you do traditional, in the ground gardens or are you a container lover like me? #grow #garden #garden2021 #freshveggies #growit #farmlife #vegetablegarden #freshproduce #farmfresh #growyourown #gardentotable #growingfood #feedyourself #containergarden
