In Case You Missed It…
I shared October’s Prime Purchases post this week. Be sure to take a look and hop over the link party at Tanya’s too. It’s time to start thinking about gift ideas if you like to get an early start!
Also, be sure to check out my newest Dixie Belle Paint Project, and see how I gave a makeover to this little table I’ve had for almost 30 years.
The Weekly Features!
The fall and Halloween decor showed up in full force these past two link parties, and I enjoyed browsing through them all. So many clever ideas!
From SoS #112:
- You guys know how much we love a good charcuterie around here, and this one from Pandora’s Box is perfect for the season!
- I love Pottery Barn, so these DIY copycat pumpkins from Arts and Classy caught my attention. So cute!
- I love DIY wreaths, and this witch hat wreath from Life as a Leo Wife is so unique!
From SoS #113
- Julie from My Wee Abode shared the cutest little tin door basket with a fall flair.
- Check out this simple, yet beautiful fall table setting from Calypso in the Country. The blue and orange combo is so pretty.
- I really enjoy seeing all the unique pumpkin crafts that people come up with, but these concrete pumpkins from Saved from Salvage are ones I hadn’t seen before. It turned out great!

So much fun to get a behind the scenes look at your vacation, Niky! They’re all beautiful and I’m so excited you guys had the chance to get away and unwind. Thanks so much for hosting. Hugs, CoCo
Thank you CoCo! Love having you over. 🙂
We love Newport, RI, it is our favorite vacation spot. We enjoyed Maine as well, so peaceful, Boston was a bit too busy for me. I love a good low key vacation where I can just take in the scenery.
I totally agree with you Cara. I think we will find our way back to Rhode Island and Maine again when we can stay longer. 🙂
Thank you so much for hosting Niky! Those pictures from the East Coast are amazing, on my bucket list for sure 🙂
Wow, looks like a wonderful trip and I’m thrilled to see part of it was spent here in Canada! Obviously, before Hurricane Ian ripped through that region. It’s nice to be partying with you again Niky. I took a blogging break and then ended up getting covid, so it’s been a while. Looking forward to seeing more of your vacay photos!
Hi Marie,
We LOVED Canada, and actually, we were there just the week AFTER Ian. For a while we weren’t sure if we’d still be able to go, but where we were in Halifax, Minister Island, and St. John didn’t seem to have much damage that we could see, anyway. I read extensively about the devastation in other areas though. 🙁
Also, I’m so sorry hear you had COVID, but hope you’re on the mend now. We avoided it for 2.5 years before finally getting it over the summer, too. It was not fun.
Niky, these photos are beautiful! I love New England especially in the fall. Bar Harbor is such a gorgeous place! My husband and I went camping in Bar Harbor for our first vacation together 14 years ago. I would love to get back there again!

Yes, it was lovely! We hope to go back again, too. 🙂
Your cruise looked like one my husband and I took some years ago on the Queen Mary. It was a wonderful trip!
Thank you so much for hosting, Niky! The pictures from your trip are absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks for hosting & featuring my burlap witch hat! It looks like you had a great time on your vacation. Happy belated anniversary!
Thanks so much, Niki. 🙂
Looks like a wonderful trip, Niky!! Thanks for hosting and thank you so very much for featuring my fall tin door decor!! Such a treat!!! Hope you have a blessed Lord’s day!!
Thanks for sharing, Julie. I always love seeing what you’re up to!
Niky, getting in the groove after a vacation is tough! Or after other types of disruptions to normal life! My link explains my absence from the blogosphere. Thank you for hosting. Looking forward to seeing more about your trip. Happy anniversary!
Jean, thanks for sharing and I hope for improvement with the health issues in your family.
Looks like an amazing trip, Niky! Thanks so much for hosting this week. take care and enjoy your beautiful Fall!
Thanks, Debra. Happy fall to you too!
Hi Niky. Thanks so much for hosting. I linked up with #23 WHY I BECAME A NURSE. Also, I’d like to invite you to linkup at some of my link parties.
It looks like you had a great vacation Niky! Getting away is so good for us 😊 Thanks for hosting the link party each week!
I agree, Cindy. This was a much-needed break!
Wow – what amazing places you visited! I may have crossed your path in Newport, Rhode Island. I was there on September 24th! Such a beautiful place! Thanks for hosting and thanks so much for including me in your features this week!
Shelley
Omg what a small world. I think we were there the next day– September 25! What did you do there?
Thank you for hosting Niky and sharing your recent trip pictures. I am from Massachusetts, and was always in Newport RI, Boston and Maine. So many great memories and the pictures put a smile on my face. Have a good weekend.
It was truly beautiful! My husband and I have decided we MUST go back and stay longer this time.
