handmade savvy saturday

What is it about holiday weekends that make the week ahead {in this case, four whole days} seem even longer? I know. Waaaa. I think we suffered a little from a weekend hangover this past week… and it’s probably because we worked right through it, trying to finish this addition. SO close you guys. 

In the meantime, here are a few things you may have missed this week on the handmade home: 

• diy fall acorn wreath – a really simple how to
• fall fashion with joyfolie and a few of our fave finds for fall!
• fall mantel {and a sneak peek of our progress!} with balsam hill

So without further ado, here are a few of our faves from the www this week: 

• 35 children’s books that teach empathy and kindness
• 5 parisian decor secrets to steal for an elegant room
• study says grandparents who babysit their grandkids live longer
• this playroom makeover
• this post because being a parent is just hard sometimes
• this back porch makeover for fall
• on burnout 
• an elegant fall mantel
• this cozy fall decor
• these great farmhouse thrift store makeovers

What are some of your favorites this week? We’d love to hear. 

Have an inspired day!
