October Favorites ~ 2021
Good Morning,
As the days have been passing I am becoming more excited. I am getting new carpet! Oh my goodness you guys can’t imagine how excited I am. We have had our carpet for 8 years (since we built our home) and we are so overdue. Our carpet is in pretty bad shape. I am thinking about if I want to share the before and after. It’s pretty bad. It is suppose to arrive on Friday so fingers crossed!
Alright let’s get into my favorites for the month of October….

I am loving my vintage nightstands! These have been such a blessing to my husband and I! We had mismatched tables as our nightstands and that never really bothered me. What bothered me was my husband’s nightstand. It was small, low to the ground, and had no surface space or storage. I think he loves his new table! I wrote about them here.
Second is my Jasperware vase. I found this during my staycation earlier this month at an antique store. I only paid $35 for it!

The third is my gorgeous chinoiserie-inspired tissue holder! This is a stunning piece to have in your home or office. I wrote about it here.
The fifth is this classic and beautiful mirrored chinoiserie-inspired picture. I found this at the At Home store. It is lovely in person. You should really check out the Grace Mitchell line at the At Home store. You can order things online as well.

Sixth is my English garden-inspired Tory Burch tote. I still can’t believe that I found this beautiful bag for only $200! I have carried it non-stop. I received so many compliments on it. It’s truly a grandmillienial tote! I wrote about it here.
The seventh item was my What’s in my Bag video for the month. Despite my technical difficulties, I had a lot of fun recording this video. It was quite enjoyable and easy. I plan on recording a new video here shortly.
And the last favorite for the month, (even though I have more), has been the Stacie Flinner blog.

I have enjoyed this blog so much! I love Stacie’s style and have been truly inspired by her. Well, another month’s favorites post down for the books. I still can’t believe that it is going to be November soon. I have to start turkey hunting as well. Have a great Wednesday!
Really enjoyed this post Mrs Shockley. Great video and I’m glad you are enjoying your tote bag. I’m not as active on YouTube anymore in comments. I needed to step back from it all. People are so vicious and ready to attack you for your opinions. I’m not dealing with that type of toxicity so I watch but I’m not logged into my account. I had to report someone for harrassment. They found my comments from 5 years ago and just to be combative, made a snarky reply. YouTube didn’t do anything because technically the person didn’t do anything wrong but they were being annoying, combative and utterly rude. I excused myself from the whole situation. Sorry to dump all that on you but that’s why I haven’t been commenting on YouTube. Have a nice day??????
You are so right. People are vicious on Youtube but I think the number one reason is because they can hide behind their computers. If people were face to face with the person that they are being rude to it would be a different story. I don’t blame you for ignoring it. It’s not worth your time and honestly 5 years ago. Wow.. they obviously don’t have enough to do in the world.
