September Favorites ~ 2020
Good Morning Everyone,
The first week of October is upon us! It’s going to be chilly this week in Indy. My birthday is today. I really didn’t plan anything this year. Covid really sucked the fun out of everything. I will share some of my birthday items later. Now on to my favorites for the month of September!
If you follow me on Instagram you may have already seen some of these items.
Most of you know how much I love Poshmark and could not resist purchasing these. They are so comfy and extremely chic!
I also picked up this Talbots leopard tote.
Next have been my faux flower arrangments. These have brightened my home and changed the look completely.
Fourth has been my pearl and velvet headbands. These are so fun to wear and look great on anyone!
Here is a second one if you are interested!
The fifth has been my fabric shaver! Okay, let me rephrase that, it’s my husband’s! He actually purchased it and try to convince me to use it but I thought it would be “bogus”. Turns out it wasn’t. It’s a great product and got rid of all of those lint balls on my pink coat! Yay!
Sixth is has been my new blue and white embroidered face mask from the Enchanted Home. Now I will say these are a bit expensive but I love the fact that I have a beautiful mask to wear. It’s not fun wearing these but they are necessary for the time being and why not have a beautiful one? I have had multiple people stop me about it.
The seventh has been these oh so chic and so comfy studded heels from Macy’s. I have been wearing these over and over. They are so pretty and so elegant. I do enjoy them.
My eighth favorite has been this beautiful find from Homegoods. I love a delicate and elegant notecard. I still use these for my thank you’s! I think a handwritten note says, “I am making time for you” and we need to do that more nowadays. I found some similar ones here if you are interested. Also, I had to share these beautiful teapot favor boxes from Michaels. I am seriously thinking about ordering a set just because!
Ninth on the list, and my list has never been this long, are my velvet pumpkins from Amazon. These have been such a popular decor item this season. I know some of you have ordered these. I hope you love them as much as I do!
Tenth on my list was my pumpkin bread that I picked up at Starbucks. I was craving this for 2 weeks in the month of September so I decided to stop by and pick up a slice. It was well worth it. Now I have been craving oatmeal. I have a local Schwan man who stops by our house ever two weeks and I decided to try their steel-cut oatmeal with red quinoa. Oh my gosh!!! You guys it was soo yummy! It has brown sugar and honey in it and it was so creamy! I am going to enjoy eating it this week.
And last but totally not least has been this fun and inspiring video below. I have watched it several times already! I am so doing this the next time I find a furniture piece and what to change the color. After seeing her complete this project I believe that I can now be fearless! I hope you watch it!
Happy Birthday, Mrs. Shockley. Hope you enjoyed your day! Those tea pot favor boxes are unique. I could see using them as a small treat box for coworkers or a neighbor, with a few pieces of a nice candy. And a sweet little note inside. Really nice favorites here. Can't wait to hear about your new YT channel finds. I only have about 3 or 4 I truly look forward to,yours included. Not a fan of the loud, fast talking You Tubers. It's too much for me.
Talk soon,
Mya
Hi Mya,
Thank you for the birthday wishes. It was a quiet birthday this year. I did enjoy it. Aww shucks, I am glad to hear that you enjoy my channel. It still freaks me out a little doing it. I just realized that I have been on YouTube for a year already. Goodness that flew by! I just found a channel where they tour chateaus in France! It's lovely!
Wishing you a very Happy Birthday Mrs Shockley. Your recent finds are inspiring and the mask is especially beautiful.
A while back I went forth bravely with my paintbrush and painted the upholstery and frames of two tufted ornate French chairs kind of similar to those in the video. Happily, it was a success (rather than a DIY disaster!) Thank you for your beautiful blog, every post is uplifting and full of beauty. Liza
Hello Liza,
Thank you so much for the birthday wishes! You tried the painting project!!!! Ahh I am so jealous but glad to hear that it is possible! I really would like to try this Liza! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It does give me more confidence which is probably going to scare my husband!
