October 2023
Fall in love!
I just decided last week that I love the transition seasons the most. Spring calls to dormant nature with a cheery, “Wake up!” and autumn is a gentle and vibrant reminder that life is a cycle and we must give way to change, but we can do so with grateful intention and celebration. As we begin the end of 2023, let’s choose to FALL in love with what is and open our homes and hearts to gathering and sharing.
IF you have questions OR need help with anything, comment below in the Disqus section OR send me an email. 🧡 I’m here and I want to hear from you!

Hue & Me
Orange is warm, welcoming, optimistic and strong. Frank Sinatra says it’s the happiest color and for his 1961 album, Nat King Cole sings about love, that like an orange colored sky knocks him flat with a FLASH and a BAM and an ALAKAZAM! Bright orange clearly packs an unexpected punch, but mix it with its compliment and you can achieve a less saturated and absolutely gorgeous muted tone which we associate with falling leaves and pumpkin spice! This month, let’s look for and create with the uplifting energy of orange!
