I don't know why but for some reason I am a candle lover particularly in the fall and winter months. I do have a candle on my kitchen mostly year round but tend to burn more candles in the fall & winter. I am a fan of particular scents and can't handle floral scents too well. Hope you enjoy this article about scents for the upcoming holiday season.

It is undeniable that the global temperatures have climbed significantly over the decades. Why
does this matter and what does it affect? I am not a scientist but it's clear that it has not had a
positive affect on our polar ice caps and the wildlife, fish, fowl who live there. Just as those water
temps rise along with our ocean temps rise destroying our coral reefs and jeopardizing all species
of reef sharks. It also is taking it's toll on land and had increased our severe weather globally as
well. Another thing that maybe we have not given much thought too is that the change is significant
enough that it is changing our planting zones! This short article from Better Homes and Gardens
addresses some things to consider when planting this fall and going forward. Hope you find it helpful.

This first color almost had me dismiss the article. I am a huge fan of color
and that being said had to get over it and forge on. What are your favorite
hues? A reminder, all paints are not created equal. Paint is like many things,
you get what you pay for! If you hire it done, find out what your painter
plans on using. If it is not of a quality you desire ask to pay the up charge to
get what you want.

Use these hues to infuse your home with the warmth and coziness of the season. From light neutrals to bold oranges, these are the best fall paint colors.

I am a person who loves deep colors but this soft white is so versatile and I think it is just
a lovely white.

Here's why the Swiss Coffee paint color from Benjamin Moore is so popular right now. This fan-favorite neutral paint color can be used just about anywhere in your home.

I like everyone of these colors. Fairly neutral and soothing to me. Which is your favorite,
