Cottage Decorating, Fabulous Fall Inspiration + More: Friday Finds

Today is the last Friday of September and then we’re into full-on fall season. I’m still clinging to remnants of summer but looking forward to autumn’s color palette. We’ve scheduled a fall weekend trip to Wisconsin in October for a bit of leaf peeping and walking the shoreline of Lake Michigan. It’s fun to take short getaways to break up the monotony of work life.

My blog also gives me a break from my daily routine and I enjoy finding decorating inspiration to share with all of you. Friday Finds is a culmination of some of the ideas that catch my eye throughout the week. Take a look and see what’s in store for today!
