5 Easy Ways to Welcome Fall

Disclosure of Material Connection: I received one or more of the products or services mentioned for free as an Acorn Influencer in the hope that I would mention it on my blog. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”It is the first full day of fall! Fall is my favorite season of the year-even though we don’t get the beautiful changing of the leaves, and it will be a few more weeks before our weather cools off, fall is still my favorite season. While I don’t personally like to eat or drink anything “pumpkin” , it is the season of earthy colors, scents and tastes. I put together this list to help you welcome fall into your home and life.

5 Ways to Welcome Fall

1. Apples!

For me. fall baking starts with apples! Whether I am making Crockpot Apple Cobbler or Cinnamon Roll Dutch Apple Pie, my go-to fall fruit is the apple. I love to bake with them, cook with them and to me, eating a fresh Macintosh Apple is the epitome of fall.

2. Decorate with Fall Colors!

You don’t have to change out everything in your home to decorate for fall. Make a few small changes that will have a dramatic impact. You can even seek help from professionals such as the Decorators in London. Here are a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing:

Pumpkins-pumpkins arranged near the front door or walkway are a welcoming yet inexpensive way to add a fall touch to the outside of your home.
Gourds-place a few gourds in a bowl on your dining room or coffee table to bring the natural colors of fall indoors.
Wreath-add a fall wreath to your front door to welcome friends and neighbors.
Linens-update your dining room or kitchen table with fall colored napkins, table runner or table cloth. This quick, colorful and easy change adds a welcoming tone to your room.

3. Fall Scents!

I love coming home to a house that smells like fall! It is such an easy and inexpensive way to freshen up my house too. Just take a trip down the air care aisle at Walmart and i’m sure you can find a fall scent that you love. My favorites this season are the “Campfire Treat” candle from 719 Walnut Avenue, the Glade “Pumpkin Pie Diner” wax melts and the Febreze “Vanilla Latte” Noticeables. For just a few dollars you can have your home smelling clean and fall fresh all season long.

4. Fall Fashion!

We’ve dressed up your home inside and out, now it is time to pull out your favorite fall fashions and dress you up too. Fall fashion means sweaters, denim jackets, boots, leather jackets, scarves and layers! I can’t wait for the temps to dip into the 70’s so I can wear my favorite sweater!

5. Fall Fun!

Fall is the perfect season to be outside, it’s not too hot, or too cold. It is a great time to hike at your favorite state park, catch a high school football game or maybe play some touch football with friends. Raking leaves isn’t nearly as much fun as jumping in them but they are both great fall activities. Spending a fall evening around a fire pit making s’mores is also a great way to relax and spend time with your family.

These are my 5 favorite ways to welcome fall. What is your favorite way? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Yay! It’s September!

cindy — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 13:52:34 +0000

Normally September isn’t a big deal for me. We always start our homeschooling at least a week before the local public school kids go back to school so by the time September starts we are settled into our routine. This year is different though, we are in the middle of our 3rd week of school but a lot is changing now that September is here. As you know I was blessed to receive a summer job as our church’s office manager. This job has been a huge blessing to my family and hopefully I have been a blessing to my church. Tomorrow is my last day at that job and while I will miss the money, it is time to be back home with my family.

We are taking the long holiday weekend to RELAX! Which is something I haven’t done all summer and I am really looking forward too. I am praying for great weather while I lay by the pool and lounge in the hot tub at my parent’s house, while reading a book for pleasure! (If you are waiting on a book review from me it will come soon…this is a ME weekend.)

September is also conference month for me. I will be at the Travel Blogger Show, Experience 2010 and Type-A Mom Conference. I want to thank HotelsCombined.com for sponsoring my ticket to Type-A. I am still looking for sponsors for my hotel and flight to Asheville. If you know of a company that might be interested in partnering with me please let me know or send them to the Sponsor Opps tab at the top of this page.

I am so excited to go to all 3 of these events. They are all going to help me move forward in some new endeavors. In the next 2 months I will be launching a family travel blog and all of my Disney World, Florida Attractions and other travel posts will migrate to that blog. This blog will be refocused back to more of its original intent parenting topics and product reviews. I will also finally be launching my media company MomMavenMedia, to help small businesses find their niche in social media and help them build their websites and online presence. I also will be launching my Open Sky store soon, I had to put that on the back burner until I get these sites up and running…if you have any product suggestions for my store please email me Cindy@TheMomMaven.com so I can check them out. I will be focusing on parenting, organization and travel products in my store.

As you can see I have been busy behind the scenes this summer and I am really excited to leap into fall-even though it is still in the 90s here in Florida. I hope you are excited for a new month, a new calendar page, a clean slate whatever September is for you…leave me a comment and let me know what new thing you are going to do this month. I want to share your journey with you!
