:: Weekend Lovelies ::
The weekend is upon us, and I am so very happy to share some of our weekend lovelies. It has been a fun and yet very busy week. We celebrated a birthday and started dreaming up some ideas for Thanksgiving dishes. Speaking of the month of November, have any of our local friends gone to visit the Elephants on Parade in Dana Point? If not, it is a must! These elephant sculptures are on display throughout the city until November 17th. They are all very special as each is displayed differently based on the artist whom painted these magical beasts. We have been enjoying them since the summer and I have made a game of it with the kids. The one above notably named, Jasmine can be found perched above Strands Beach. If you find the time, I recommend visiting them while you can. Who wouldn’t want to fit in a gorgeous fall beach day? Luckily we have been spoiled with some lovely sunny days, but we do look ahead to some brisk fall adventures. We hope that you can take a moment to enjoy some of our favorite finds. Maybe it will inspire you to plan ahead for the upcoming holidays. Sit back and relax with a warm morning drink and this edition of weekend lovelies. Enjoy!
Make Your Day, All Day Long // Make Your Day DIY
I am super excited to try a craft or two via this new ebook from Make Your Day DIY. These bloggers will be visiting our local West Elm to inspire some holiday crafts that can be turned into gifts. We love a cute succulent pot.
Snickerdoodle Cake // Sweet Treats and More
I am drooling over this snikerdoodle cake! I can’t imagine anything more tasty and festive for fall than turning a favorite sugar spice cookie into a cake! Oh my….
Preparing For Company // Apartment Therapy
Is it just us or do you find cleaning your house as an overwhelming task? I am so excited to find this list {I love lists} of any easy 60 minutes or less way of preparing your home for guests. It seems like lately with birthdays that we have had more drop ins than we normally do. Sometimes the thought of all the “to-dos” can be a bit much. This quick clean up is simple, quick, and to the point. The organizing and base board cleaning can be done at a later date {wink}.
Woodland Maxi Cardigan // The Agate Mermaid
We are dreaming of warm sweaters and boots. Though there has been few days that we have been able to wear the latter, once we do I hope to wear one of these amazing sweaters from The Agate Mermaid. This one is on my wish list, but with few in stock it might simply go sooner than later.
Home State Personalized Return Address Stamp // Paper Pastries
The holidays are just around the corner, wouldn’t this stamp make your return addressing a cinch. Not only does it make life easier, but it is oh so very cute. Loving this stamp. One easy yet creative stamp for addressing your holiday cards.
Cranberry Tangerine Rosemary & Cream Soda Mocktail // Spoon Fork Bacon
We can’t truly start the weekend without a sincere cheers. This Cranberry Tangerine Rosemary & Cream Soda Mocktail seems like the perfect autumn drink. Whether it is enjoyed with our without alcohol, this drink would be a lovely addition to the beginning of any holiday meal. Yum!
Cheers and Enjoy your Weekend!
