In almost 3 weeks it will be Valentine’s Day. Back a few years ago I shared a post about free Valentine printables I had found. Today I am updating that post with current printables available to help you make the day special. Whether you’re looking for a card or gift of wall art for your special someone, or need banners, tags, or any number of designs to decorate and celebrate with your children and friends, I am on the hunt to find the most heart warming downloads I can.

How to Make An Easter Sock Bunny
For the last few years I’ve set a goal to do at least one pin from my Pinterest collection each season. I don’t always reach that goal, but am slowly trying out pins. Today I’m sharing my DIY Easter sock bunny. There are several posts online for a sock bunny. I used a Dollar Tree pair of white socks. I could not find an all-white pair of men’s socks and had to buy a women’s pair. It works fine but is a little smaller than those shared elsewhere.

DIY Pink & Purple Spring Wreath
I was watching a documentary on Amazon Prime last Sunday. The Gardener is a story about Frank Cabot. He is the man responsible for a horticultural masterpiece of the 21st century, Les Quatre Vents in Quebec. The story is about the history of his family’s home and how he began to expand the garden to create a series of garden rooms that are pure art. If you have Amazon Prime, do take a peek if you love nature, art, and gardens.

Advent Candles 2021

How To Add Nature in Your Home
Take a walk in the great outdoors; it’s amazing to hear the birds chirp and to watch the flowers bloom. There is something about being outside that is exciting and intoxicating at the same time. It’s just a beautiful place to be in many ways. In many places, the days can start being grey in the fall. As I mentioned before, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) affects a number of people worldwide as days become shorter and darker. When you’re stuck indoors in the winter, staying in your home can lead to cabin fever, increase your chances of getting sick, and even depress some people.

How To Make A Stovetop Fall Potpourri
September is here, and many of us are ready to embrace fall with its colors and fragrance. Many folks like to use candles or a dry potpourri to add a pleasant aroma to their homes. I personally prefer an easy pot of water with some of my favorite ingredients. You can use an electric simmer pot, a small crock pot, or a medium sauce pan on a back burner of your stove on low. I find this mixture lasts for about 1 to 2 days of comforting aromas. It makes your home feel cozy and filled with love without any chemicals. Please note: This recipe is not for consumption although all ingredients are edible.
Today let’s make a simple stovetop potpourri for the autumn season. Stovetop potpourri seems to spread its fragrance better than any candle or air freshener can. It is inexpensive and is easy to make. What I love about homemade potpourri is the fact you know exactly what it contains, and there are no hidden chemicals. Last holiday season I shared an easy holiday stovetop potpourri. The mix of ingredients has been slightly adjusted for the fall season.
