This is just the second day in our #InspiredFallNesting series.
When I decided to embark on this series it was a very big step for me. As I am living in the “inbetween” and not my own home, I wondered if I could really do this. And then I thought, “Why not?!”
This is not going to be a show-off series. It won’t be filled with bunch of my crafty accomplishments. Or views of my home decor. But, my gracious friend, will let me do a little playing with her decor. If all goes as planned, I will share a few recipes and a few updated posts from the past that really only a few people have seen. I may even get in a craft idea or two of my own, and hopefully you’ll find plenty of inspiration from my “inbetween.”
And though the theme is…
Fall….It’s Extraordinary!
In reality it will be about fall nesting with joy in the “inbetween.”
We all will live in the “inbetween” at point in our lives. It will look different for each of us.
No matter the season, no matter the reason, we will be faced with a choice.
Either we can draw up into a fetal position, or we can choose to live.
We can choose to make the very most of where we are.
We can be Extraordinary!
I hope you’ll join me for each day of this #InspiredFallNesting series.
And…I hope you’ll leave a few words, too.
My desire since the beginning, has been for this blog to be a place where we all interact with each other.
A few ladies who faithfully follow the Joy Day! series encourage and pray for each other on occasion. It would be great if we can notch it up here on the blog and on Facebook for the series. I think it would be wonderful if you would share and ask questions. You all are the best and leave the most kind and thoughtful comments. Big [hugs] to you!
It’s a Giveaway!
I was recently contacted by RAMSIGN, a small company in Scotland, that specializes in manufacturing and selling classic enamel signs (house signs and house numbers) based upon original designs and techniques, and asked if I would like to do a giveaway of their product. Ramsign plaques are seriously wonderful architectural elements which I’ve been smitten with for a very long time. So, it was actually very easy to say yes. They kindly will send me a number sign in exchange for this post.
I know you would love to win one of Ramsign’s striking signs.
The winner can choose among all house number signs (valued up to $99) from the Ramsign website. Visit their Facebook page as well for inspiration. These signs are great for more than just announcing to the world your address. How about attaching them to a basket with your anniversary date. Or placing them on an antique piece of furniture with a birth date? What other way would you utilize a beautiful number sign?

I love your pinecone bowl centerpiece. I’m also getting ready to do some fall nesting.
Kathy, I think we’ve all caught the bug!! 🙂
I just noticed your bowl was half a globe…love it even more.
I think it is the cutest ever!! But, I can’t take credit for it, Kathy. [sigh] It’s from BHG…Better Homes & Gardens. 🙂
Hope your week is Extraordinary!!

I appreciate knowing that, LuAnn!
Thank you for being so kind and sharing your ‘seven’ too!!
I already like your FB page. :O)
Yay!!! 😀
I already follow you on Pinterest and girl, I have some catching up to do. I’m fairly close to you in number of boards 48 to 65, but my measly 157 pins PALE in comparison to yours. I may have to troll your pins and re-pin some to mine. :p
Haha!! I’ve been on Pinterest for a very long time. And I’m small potatoes compared to many. Did you know there are people with more than a million pins? That would be too much to handle. Yes? Fun browsing my boards. But…watch the clock! Or…you’ll discover it’s one in the morning. Yes…I lost a couple of hours one night. 😉

Thanks for your thoughts, Rose. 🙂 Comfy…maybe not. But, I’ve been reminded that we don’t grow strong physically without working out and a little pain. Personal growth doesn’t come out of comfort, either. Gotta keep my eyes on ‘the prize.’
Hope your day is Extraordinary!
