It’s that time of year when we close up the garden for winter, but not before doing one final task. Planting bulbs for spring! There’s something so hopeful about tucking bulbs into the soil this time of year — a quiet promise that color and life will return after the long winter months. You might remember me sharing this time last year how I planted my bulbs for spring (you can read all about it HERE), and this past spring I got to enjoy the first signs of spring as my tulips, hyacinth and daffodils burst up from the ground. I’ve rounded up some of my absolute favorites to share with you today, including how our garden looked earlier this spring in full bloom.

Nothing gets me more excited to decorate for fall than when I see the leaves begin to turn colors around our home. Garden chores lesson as we prepare for winter, and I can’t help but shift my focus indoors to make every space around our home feel a little cozier. There’s just something about layering warm tones, soft textures, and natural elements that makes your home feel so inviting this time of year. I rounded up a few of my favorite Amazon finds for fall decor that you have seen me use around my home — pieces that I love for their timeless look, cozy feel, and the fact that they can be used year after year.

I hope this post finds you soaking up the last bit of blissful moments this summer has to offer. I have so many wonderful things I can’t wait to share with you that happened this summer. But before I jump back into sharing home and decor content, I wanted to give you an update on life and the reason for my extended absence, as many of you have reached out to check in on me.
