November Wreath

Last month I did a post on Harvest Wreaths for Autumn Jubilee, and my MIL commented that she wanted one.  Well, OK, any excuse to get out the goodies and play with my glue gun again!! Starting out with a grapevine wreath base, I added some fall color faux flowers and leaves. I also started …

Pumpkin Tablescape

I just can't stand it, I cannot wait one more day for Autumn to begin.  At this time of year, I always think of my mother and how much we loved to do things in the fall. We would decorate together, read Bon Appetit magazine together, plan our holidays, bake pumpkin bread, make wreaths together, …

I'll let you download the pattern from the source, but here are a …
