We had a couple of days of rain over the past week and just having an inch or so has really perked up all of our plants! How about you? How is your fall garden doing? Our garden beds have enjoyed a second growing season with the advent of cooler weather. Sooo nice to see plants which were really suffering are now really happy…
Well, getting perennials planted in the ground and taking cuttings of existing plants are what I have been doing a lot of this fall, when I have time. So nice that we have had a long fall season with no freezes yet!
Other than that, what all have you been up to? Hopefully you are enjoying good fall weather in your neck of the woods!!
Let’s check out this week’s features…
Here’s what I shared this past week atFrench Ethereal…
First up is this cutie from Steph Creates ~ DIY Harvest Floral Pumpkin Centerpiece. Love how cute this pumpkin turned out!!! Plus, with Stephanie’s easy-to-follow instructions, you can whip out this fun pumpkin craft in an afternoon.
Claire from Claire Justine’s new channel ~ Claire’s World ~ shares this delicious recipe for Ginger Pumpkin Pie: Great Recipe. Can’t wait to make this!!
Our last feature this week is from DeeDee from Clover House who brings us her Front Porch Decor for Fall and Halloween. Stunning!!! And her kitty is pretty cute, too. <3
Honorable Mention
Amber from The Hungry Mountaineer shared her RV trip to Bishop, California in her post about making German-Style Potato Salad with Extra Bacon. I’m sorry that I couldn’t pull in any of her photos because of the writing wanted to come instead, but her recipe looks great! Stop on by to check out Amber’s post and see some of the Eastern Sierra mountain range, part of central California and right next to Nevada (think high desert).

Happy Wednesday evening to you all!! My mother-in-law stopped by as I was prepping for this post, so up a bit later than I’d like, but that’s how things roll around here. ;)’ Last night we had our first night in the high-30’s, and I worked until after dusk getting plants covered and some moved into the big shed/greenhouse. It was a busy couple of hours running a power cord through a window again and making insulation pieces to fit in the vents to keep the cold out, but now the shed is ready for winter. 🙂
So, that’s what’s going on around here lately. I do have a post to share soon with how our garden looks with the new flower beds dug and more perennials and small trees planted. It’s coming along nicely!
Let’s check out this week’s features… It’s all about Halloween/All Hallow’s Eve with some fun and mildly spooky ideas to inspire!! We have a Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos) table display at school surrounded by books which work for the season, and it’s fun to see how this week’s post fits in with that theme, too!
And here are this week’s featured posts…
Too funny! Love this cute table setting from Maryjo from Master “Pieces” of My Life!! Great title, too ~ Bone Appetit Tablescape. Hee hee! Makes me think of that poem, “Come on in, take off your skin and rattle around in your bones…”
Jennifer from Curated by Jennifer shared a story about her dainty French Floral Dress as part of her trip to Istanbul (a nice series of stories, if you haven’t hopped over to Jennifer’s site before.) Perfect for hot weather! I love clothes which travel and wear well. <3
Debbie from Debbie-Dabble Blog shared this fun Spooky Witch’s Potion Buffet and it’s adorable!!! Perfect blend of spooky, creepy and fun!
Penny from Penny’s Treasures has used perfectly soft fall colors to decorate her Halloween bar in this post ~ Spooky After School Snack Board. Cute!!!
Newcomer Estelle from Homemade on a Weeknight shared the perfect snack to feature at your next Halloween/Day of the Dead/All Souls Day party in her post ~ Bagel Breakfast Sliders. Serious yum!!! Welcome, Estelle!!!
And our final feature for this week comes from our second newcomer to Share Your Style, Aria at Cottage Shoppe.com ~ 8 Clever Craft Room Solutions. Love these!!! Welcome, Aria!!

Happy Thursday, y’all! Well, yesterday got away from me with trying to get two posts out for you, but… I hope you enjoyed reading about my daughter’s and my trip to Versailles this past July!

So, let’s get to this week’s features, shall we?
Here’s what I shared this past week atFrench Ethereal…
The name says it all, folks! ~ Visiting Le Château de Versailles{igh}… Amy and I had the best time in France, and for me, Versailles was the culmination of a great first trip to a country I have wanted to visit for forty years. Please stop by and leave me a comment, share some photos and enjoy!
Cheryl from Sew Can Do brings us a really sweet post ~ Fun and Easy DIY Fall Sensory Bin ~ Perfect for one’s children, for students at school who love to touch things and for students who need sensory input (we used them in our Life Skills classes; also for students who are on the spectrum).

No posts this week for you. I spent that earlier part of last week cleaning up after Yoda’s unhappy tummy issues and then the rest just being tired from shelving hundreds of pounds of books. I’m loving the new position in the library at my school but it is very tiring physically! This girl is getting old, drat it… The body just can’t handle what it used to.
So, let’s get to this week’s features, shall we?
And here are this week’s featured posts…
MaryJo from Master “Pieces” of My Life brings us this fun craft idea for fall ~ Chalkboard Pumpkin Tabletop DIY. She shares how to make them and also some other fun chalkboard ideas, too!

It has been a week, friends. Yoda is feeling better, but we’ve had five days of off-and-on poopy messes in our kitchen and dining area. Thankfully, Yoda is getting better. After three different days of cleaning up, I am grateful for Yoda’s improvement.
Thank you for your well wishes! 🙂
Here’s what I shared this past week atFrench Ethereal…
Want to make some clever decorator pies?? Lisa from Fresh Vintage by Lisa shares this really creative decorative pie tutorial ~ Faux Mini Pie ~ So realistic, you’d want to eat it!

Hey everyone, I’m going to postpone Share Your Style until tomorrow. I came home to a third day of poop all over our kitchen.
Yoda just isn’t feeling well and perhaps it’s his time… Not sure but he still wants to eat and drink water. Maybe it’s the inability to process protein. His vet had been looking at that last month at his check up (proteins were elevated).
Anyway, I’ll be cleaning for a while yet. Thank you for understanding,
Welcome to this week’s Share Your Style #360, friends! So many good features to share this evening, it’s hard to choose!!!

Happy Wednesday, y’all! Last weekend was BUSY! I drove down to Corsicana, Texas about 2 1/2 hours away for an IOOF State Assembly meeting where I took lots of notes as Secretary. Drove back mid-Saturday afternoon and then returned with my husband to the Denton Blues Festival. The music was terrific, the food was delicious and we made some good money towards next year’s scholarships.
If you’ve never heard of the International Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF; and Rebekahs), it is a service organization a lot like the VFW, the Masonic Lodge and others. Anyway, we worked the Blues Festival again on Sunday until arriving home around 9:00p.m. TIRED hit me today and thankfully our school had its monthly teachers’ meetings in the afternoon, so… Classified staff (everyone who isn’t Administration or a teacher) could leave early and use personal or comp time. I slept for 1 1/2 hours… A great nap! 😀
So, anyway, nothing new except a quick photograph from the Blues Festival… Still working on other posts. <3
One of the first bands which I saw on Saturday evening… Good music!
And here are this week’s featured posts…
I love how one simple change to a room begets another! Debra from Common Ground shares her subtle fall changes here in this post ~ Boho Quilted Throw in the Garden Room. Love this throw and what’s on the coffee table, too!
Ann of Apple Street Cottage is back with this fun mash-up of pumpkin-y craft ideas in her post ~ Dollar Store Pumpkins Four Ways. Adorable ideas!!!
Newcomer Anita from Stampin’ With Anita shared this sweet fall-inspired card to create! Love how cute the mice are!!! ~ New Design Team. Welcome, Anita to the French Ethereal family!!
Lynne from Thrifting Wonderland brings us another of her lovely tablescapes in this post ~ Uncomplicated Fall Table Setting. Love the cherry colors!!!
Shelbee from Shelbee on the Edge brings us two great posts: The Essential Back-to-School Checklist and 7 Ways to Surprise Your Disney-Loving Friends. Don’t her two sons look awesome?!! It is that back to class time for so many students and staff… Hard to believe we have been in-school now for over a month! We began the second week of August around here in North Texas. 🙂
Good summer transition for the workplace, Sally from Within a World of My Own shared several fashionable looks in her post ~ Brown Crop Pants Outfits for Warm Fall Weather. Love ’em!!!
Looking for some fall porch ideas? Look no further than this post ~ The Best 9 Porch Ideas for Fall ~ from Wendy at WM Design House. Love the soft pumpkin colors paired with graphic greats, black and white!!!
Penny from Penny’s Treasures shared her sweet fall look in this post ~ The Enchanted Forest on the Buffet. Love the idea of using things which can be used in multiple season!! Lovely and you’ll have to check out Penny’s post to see THE CUTEST mushrooms and toadstools (I never know which is which so I never pick in the wild or my yard 😉 ).
