Autumn is almost upon us (at least those of us in the northern hemisphere). I love this time of the year. For those who are blessed with four full seasons, the months with colorful leaves are among the best.
To enjoy this time even more, there are many things we can do around our home to give it that distinct autumn atmosphere. Here are a few ideas:
- Make an autumn candle tray, using an old picture frame, pretty paper, harvest candles and a fall garland, like Kelli has at her house.
- Get a headstart on decluttering your closet by switching out your summer clothes. Get some tips at Declutter It.
- Kids at school mean a seemingly endless need for craft and school supplies, such as crayons and glue. Make your own non-toxic craft glue with Marye’s recipe at Simply Home Remedies.
- Ready for some autumn comfort food? How about an apple and sausage pie, courtesy of Elise at Simply Recipes.
- If you’re looking to increase your storage space, how about turning that space under the stairs to a functional and beautiful drawer system, like this one at Freshome?
