Friday Finds: Pumpkin Roundup

Hello, Wayman Family Nesters and Happy Friday!  Since we have yet to buy a pumpkin in the Wayman house, I thought I would share some lovely pumpkins that I found that inspired me while perusing Pinterest.  I'll admit that I haven't been in the Halloween spirit this year (I still have yet to make Hayes a costume!), so beauts are sure to get me in the mood.

1. Herringbone pumpkin   2.  Decopauged pumpkin   3.  Chevron pumpkin  

 4.  Silhouette pumpkin   5.  Ombred pumpkin     6.  Subway art pumpkin   7.  Neon pumpkin

8. Moth decal pumpkin   9.  Crayon dripped pumpkin    10.  Hometown pride pumpkin 


I don't know if I'll feel ambitious enough to tackle any of these.  We usually do a pumpkin-carving contest at my parents' house.  But I thought these were nice alternatives to the traditional carved pumpkins.  What about you?  Carved or artsy pumpkins?

Happy Friday y'all!

Friday Finds: Back to School

Today I'll be thinking of my sweet friends as they welcome their students back to school.  Today will be the first time in about 22 years that I haven't had a first day of school.  I will be home with my little man until October 22.  So while I'm missing my friends, I'm definitely enjoying the time spent at home.  I know if will go by all too quickly!

So in honor of my teacher friends, I've scoured the internet for some of my favorite school supplies.

Today I'm here to let you in on a little secret for some cute and affordable pillows (or maybe it's not a secret to you!).  Did y'all know that PB Teen had such cute pillows?!  Where have I been?

Here are a few of my favorites:

Check out the Ikat Crewel Multi Pillow Cover.  This bold, colorful pattern would be sure to make a statement.

Here's the Tropical Garden Crewel Pillow Cover.  I'm loving the big, bright flowers.

This one might be my favorite!  It's the Ikat Dot Pillow Cover

Loving the Alphabet Needlepoint Pillow as well!

They also have super cute sheet sets as well.  You know I have a love of stripes!  Check out the Cottage Stripe Sheet Set.

I also love the Simple Stripe Favorite Tee Sheet Set.

Once again, the ikat might be my favorite.  Loving the deep blue of the Ikat Dot Organic Sheet Set.

How fun is the Mini Dot Sheet Set?

So did my Wayman Family Nesters already know about these awesome finds?  Happy Friday all! 

Friday Finds: A Little Holiday Pinspiration

Hello, Wayman Family Nesters!  Sorry for my 2 weeks off, but my mind has been a little preoccupied lately (I hope to be able to share with you next week.  Sorry for keeping you on pins and needles!).

I'm back today to share a little holiday pinspiration with you.  Here's a few of my favorite holiday decor ideas from the always amazing Pinterest.

I think these beautiful globes are F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S!  I bought some supplies a couple of weeks ago to try my hand at my own version, but I still need to find my own little trees.  Michael's only had a bag of assorted sizes for $20 and I was NOT about to pay that!  I'll be sure to report back to you when I complete the project!

I'm loving this red and white bunting.  This is another little project I've got planned for our tree (Which we have yet to buy by the way.  But I have grand plans, so don't you worry!).  I'm envisioning this bunting with a burlap tree skirt.  What do you think?

When I saw this post on the fabulous Emily Clark's blog, I knew this was the perfect solution to display all of our Christmas cards.  I have yet to try it out (I really need to get crackin' on all of these projects-I'm definitely behind this year.  Eeeek!), but I'll be sure to show you picture of the finished product!

{source}

Here's a little DIY snowglobe project.  So cute and I bet your kiddies would love it!  I saw another one pinned where they put gift cards inside-believe me, it was WAY too cute!  What a creative way to spice up giving a gift card!

Want a cheap way to glam up your holiday decor?  Go grab a can of sprapaint and some twigs in your back yard and go to town!  When they're dry, put them in a vase and voila!  Cheap and chic decor!

Obviously I've got these jars on the brain right now.  These are so adorable!  Can't wait to try mine!  Can you ever go wrong with glitter?!  (please don't answer that because I don't think you can!)

How cute is this untraditional wall tree?  I love this unique tree composed of "useless but pretty objects" (according to the creator).  Definitely a one-of-a-kind that would be sure to make a statement!

So hopefully you're feeling inspired on this happy Friday, my Wayman Family Nesters!  I know I am!  It's time for me to get going on our Christmas decor.  I figure better late than never!  What about you, Wayman Family Nesters?  Do you have any fun Christmas crafts and decorating going on this weekend?

Happy Friday!

Back to School Love! 

Now that school is back in session for most of us, I thought it would be fun to round up a few of my Back to School etsy finds!  I just love the beginning of a new school year!  It reminds me of my favorite line from one of my favorite movies, You've Got Mail... "I'd send you a boquet of freshly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address."  Ahhh, what a great movie. I would love a bouquet of freshly sharpened pencils.

Free the Nations Love!

I was so excited when Sarah contacted me about her awesome new website called "Free the Nations."  They are focused on fashionable fair trade jewelry.

Here's a little bit about Free the Nations from their website:
Our Vision:   To empower impoverished communities around the world with sustainable economic solutions that foster both collective and individual growth.

Our Mission:   To give individuals opportunities to help eradicate extreme poverty and human exploitation around the world through fashion.

Our Philosophy:    Free the Nations is a fashion movement—an ideology that your purchase can make a difference in someone’s life. We believe it is possible that fashion can not only make you feel good about yourself, but also bring freedom to others from poverty, disease, slavery, and exploitation.

Here's a few of my favorites:

Chloe Circle Bracelet

Suubi Bracelets

Azura Teal Earrings

Anika Glass Earrings

Crested Crane Necklace

 Paper Pearls Necklace

Agate Glass Pendant Necklace
