Chris and I have been so excited about the fall foliage and making crafts with beautiful leaves.  We challenged each other to come up with a new project to top last year’s Nicole Duke’s Leaf Roses.  My project is a fall leaf candle holder using a canning jar, Mod Podge, a paintbrush, and leaves.

DIY Falling Leaves Glitter Garland

Leaf Glitter Garland

Falling Leaves Glitter Garland

This Falling Leaves Glitter Garland helps me hang on to the beautiful leaves of autumn! A couple weeks ago we posted about Nicole Duke’s Easy and Free DIY Fall Leaf Roses. This weekend I found another EASY and inexpensive DIY project for those leaves all over the ground that can accent your home and make a great fall or Thanksgiving decoration. I picture them shimmering around a room during a late evening party.

Being a perfect project for any age, I encourage you to grab the kids and make a day of garland making.  And who doesn’t love raking up some leaves, throwing them up in the air, and jumping in huge piles of them?  Here’s another way to stretch out your fall fun or make a souvenir of a perfect fall afternoon!

Extremely easy, cheap to make, and a way to preserve the leaves…

Fall DIY Lost Button Frame Project

October 23, 2014 By Christina Gammon Leave a Comment

Lost Button CraftFlipping through a magazine, I came across this Lost Button Craft Frame project.  Our family has the market on loose random buttons! My grandmother had tins of buttons she had collected through the years and this was passed on to my mother. I’m sure Emily has a bunch too. (Emily chiming in here: I have Gram’s buttons and some of Mom’s now as well!)  I admit, in my new home, I’ve started a little box of buttons myself.

We save and save, afraid to throw them out because we know one day we will need one for a pair of pants, that jacket or shirt that popped its button… but realistically, we will never use all of our buttons… well, not until now.   Check out this super easy, super cool Lost Button Craft Frame!

Here’s how I did it:

Fall Soup Recipe: Ayurvedic Squash Apple Soup

October 12, 2014 By Emily Gammon 7 Comments

Ayurvedic FoodThis fall soup recipe is our favorite!  It’s an Ayurvedic Squash Apple Soup!  While it’s great to make it with newly harvested ingredients knowing everything is fresh, you can – and should – make this anytime.  And make it often! Preparing and eating this warms you on the inside almost as much as this soup.

When people talk of doing something from start to finish, we always think of planting the seed, tending the crop, harvesting the produce, and preparing nutritious food.  We also think of collecting buffalo fiber in the field, having it cleaned and carded, spinning it into yarn, and knitting socks – but that’s another blog post.

Following are directions for the most delicious, nutritious fall soup recipe!

Nicole Duke’s Easy and Free DIY Fall Decoration

October 11, 2014 By Christina Gammon 169 Comments

DIY Fall Leaf Roses Decoration TutorialI found these easy DIY fall leaf roses on Facebook but the person who posted it was not the girl who created it, Nicole Duke. I did a Google search for Nicole Duke’s fall leaf roses and nothing came back directly about her but I LOVE this idea and had to share with you! It reminds me of the flowers my mom showed me how to make when I was a kid using leaves. I can picture these as a table centerpiece for Thanksgiving or a wedding. It’s a great autumn decoration. My family had a fun time using the fall leaves for roses and we are sure you will too!

How To Grow Vegetables in the Winter

March 22, 2020 By Emily Gammon 1 Comment

Calling all Green Thumbs!  Let’s talk about how to grow vegetables in the winter!  If you’re like most backyard gardeners, you think planting time doesn’t start until after the danger of frost has passed. Depending on where you live, this could be anytime between March and May. Waiting until then to plant crops means you also have to wait until mid-summer or early fall to begin enjoying the fruits of your labor. Instead, try these garden veggies you can plant in winter and start using your homegrown veggies much sooner! [Read more…]

Stretching Food Supplies During the Coronavirus

February 28, 2020 By Christina 1 Comment

The coronavirus has millions of people rushing to the stores and hoarding items like toilet paper. It’s a scary time and our big concern isn’t TP. These sisters are both wise shoppers and go to places like Sams Club to do our shopping for most items. When there is a sale, we stock up so paper products were the least of our concern. Our concern was fresh produce and keeping vegetables in our daily diet. Here are a few ways we’ve learned to stretch supplies during the coronavirus. Stretching Food Supplies During the Coronavirus is so important.
