Autumn To-Do List

Sep 11

UPDATE: Looking for more bucket lists? Find all of my printable ones (with blank copies!) RIGHT HERE.

 

It’s that time of the year! Yesterday on Facebook, I shared one of my past Fall ‘To-Do’ lists and thought I’d share my new one a bit earlier than I have in the past. I usually leave it until I see the leaves turning and realize I’m going to miss my favourite season. But this year- I’m going to make the most of it! We have a crazy fall- we always do, it’s the time of birthdays in our family and then as Canadians, Thanksgiving is smack dab in the middle of October which means lots of family visits! They’re all awesome, good things… but it can get nuts and if we don’t plan to take time away to do things we enjoy, we miss it.

So here’s my list for the year… and be warned, it’s nothing ambitious. These are all things that I love to do (and probably would do a few without having them listed) but I’d rather cross everything off my list and feel like I had a well-enjoyed season than have fun things I probably won’t be able to pull off. We all need some feel-good goals sometimes, right?

Autumn To-Do List (bucket list! but all things I want to do this fall)

I’ve made this autumn to-do list into a printable as well- if you want to snag it in PDF just click here and you’ll get both my list and a blank one that’s all pretty but with NO to-do’s listed… you get to add in your own! And since I couldn’t stop there, I decided to make another colour combo (think green and golds) for my email list. If you subscribe in the next week, you’ll see it land in your inbox!

Visit the Farmers Market / Fly a Kite / Decorate for Autumn / Play in the Fall Leaves / Pumpkin Pancakes / Corn Maze / Take a Long Bath / Bundle up for a Walk / Send Some Snail Mail / Fall Baking / Host a Dinner Party / Make a New Soup / Hunker Down for a Movie Marathon / Trick or Treat / Fall Photo Session

Then… tell me! What’s on your list that I should probably add to mine. I’ve already thought of a few I missed on here. Like visit the pumpkin patch then decorate pumpkins (how did I forget that one!?) and host a craft night to get a jump on Christmas gifting. They’ll be written messily in pen beside this neat list, if you’re wondering.

You can grab my list from last year or the year below using the buttons below:

    Looks like a good list to me! I love it! More family memories and relaxing…..
    Our Fall is like yours (though our Thanksgiving is November)….but Birthdays in September and now one in October and of course Halloween and then Thanksgiving and of course Christmas around the bend…..
    Have a great Fall….

    Ahhhh I love the “take a hot bath” and “send some snail mail”! Actually I love the whole thing, but those are two of my favorites. So fun. :) Following you on twitter now.

      Thanks so much Sarah, snail mail is one of my favourite past times but I didn’t make nearly enough time for it (or baths!) this summer.

    This is a great list, although mine includes making (and drinking) some warm apple cider along the way. ;)

      That’s a great addition! I’m not an apple cider fan (although I do love pumpkin drinks!) but my hubby would definitely side with you.

The hallway is finally finished and I’m so stink The hallway is finally finished and I’m so stinking happy! 

It’s felt like such a long time coming for such a small space. Since we moved in 2.5 years ago, this space has seen new doors and hardware, new trim, new floors... twice😅, we changed the boob light to a pot light and I hated it and now it’s got the most beautiful flush mount fixture I’m in love with (thanks @mymitzi!). It finally got some fresh paint and now frames on walls and last but not least... After this weekend, the new floors look like they were here all along (no door jamb gaps!) which was the last thing really bugging me since our flood last year. 

All this to say that home takes time and sometimes getting it right might take a couple tries. Also- the spaces we don’t really think about (hallways) can totally help a house feel like home with some love (and family photos 🥰)
ps. I partnered with #mymitzi to create a tiktok for This makeover... are you following me over there yet?! I’d love if you popped over and said hi!
It’s done! It works! And I’m calling it a grea It’s done! It works! And I’m calling it a great use of my afternoon the other day. Did you catch the stories? These projects both cost me under $10 by using pieces I already had in my home (yay for scraps!) and one package of drawer slides).
You can find the full video about these two kitchen organization projects over on YouTube in collaboration with my friend @love_create_celebrate and her #scrapsmademodern challenge! But for now... I’m rejoicing this coffee maker is off my counter for good 🎉
How’s your January going? Full speed or are you How’s your January going? Full speed or are you taking it a bit slow too? 

I’m not going to lie, I’m easing into this new year thing pretty slowly. All my decorations are still up (we always leave them up til Ukrainian Christmas which is later this week) and I I’ve yet to respond to my emails since before Christmas 😅
I’m enjoying the slowness of it all.
Happy Christmas Eve from our fam to yours 🥰 Happy Christmas Eve from our fam to yours 🥰
Yes, I made the paper bag snowflakes too. Have you Yes, I made the paper bag snowflakes too. Have you? 😅
This year has been one of a kind and I know so man This year has been one of a kind and I know so many people who are taking this year as the push they’ve been waiting for to start a side hustle, start an new career altogether or to just get creative about how they’re making money. So today I’m excited to partner with @kregjig to share some rad projects to make and sell this year! 
Like this rolling storage system I made for my office, that rad dollhouse and the gorgeous bath toy storage. All of these projects are things that I’d personally love to buy for our family and look like they’d be a great return on your time making them! And yes, all of them use #Kreg tools to make them easy to assemble and quick to make! Plus, they’re having a great sale on right now with deals on their K4 and K5 jigs, Rip-Cut and even a hardware jig bundle! There’s never been a better time to get your workshop set up!  #sponsored
Just a peaceful moment and then a real life moment Just a peaceful moment and then a real life moment for ya 🙃 
My #holidayhometour is on the blog and YouTube (I’ll put links in my stories) as part of the #seasonalsimplicity holiday home tour series. I’ll share those too so you don’t miss any!
My holiday home tour will be up tomorrow, but for My holiday home tour will be up tomorrow, but for tonight... I’m just enjoying the lights. And possibly a hallmark movie with some more custom order lettering 😅 what are your plans?
