It’s not too late to pick up some awesome Halloween inspired art for your home! Or if you’re heading to a Halloween party, one of these prints would make a great host/hostess gift!

This week I’m loving embroidery hoop art. Who knew a sewing tool could become such great wall art? I’m thinking this might be exactly what my living room needs… how cool would it be to have 5 or so hoops of various size clustered together. If you are feeling crafty, this would be a great weekend project. If you’re feeling a little less inspired, above are my favorites that are for sale.

I have long been a fan of vintage milk glass. I love the interesting shapes and textures of the glass. Last month I was in Black Mountain, NC helping my family restore a century old house. While there I visited a great antique store and picked up the vase you see on the left for $9. This week, I scoped out Etsy and found some great buys too.
Above are my favorite from top to bottom. Gucciart22, uglysanta, and 2BoredBunnies

Happy Autumn! Fall is officially here and that means the holidays are approaching. I love this season… the changing of leaves, all the orange and yellow hues, pumpkin lattes, ice cream and muffins, and our wedding anniversary! Our new home has double front doors that are in need of a little decorating for the season. I was looking for unique wreaths and I found so many!
Are you planning on hanging a fall wreath on your door?

The very talented Myra Callan of Twigs and Honey just released a new collection! Myra made so many beautiful accessories for myself and my wedding party nearly two years ago. I am so excited to see how her work has evolved. All items shown above are part of her new collection and ship in 4 weeks. Someone please go buy the beaded lace head wrap… or I think I may!

My Etsy pick of the week is the beautiful sterling silver and copper necklaces by Gems by Em. Each pendant is customizable. You can order a necklace with a quote, initials, or names. I think they would be a perfect bridesmaid gift, a great gift for mom, or a nice treat for yourself. I love the copper heart necklace featured below.
