5. Glue on the googly eyes & mouth (black paper hole punched)
6. Tie the short piece of yarn at the top to a string or ribbon to make your garland!

It’s always tricky styling that little wall space beneath the staircase. 🪄 I started with spring plates and have switched the wall over twice for summer and now fall. All plates were sourced second-hand except for the @lenox Autumn salad plate on the top left 🍁 🔖The two crocks beneath our antique sewing machine were recent FBMP finds and I can’t wait to show you how I’m styling them for Christmas🎄

🪽Losing a grandparent is incredibly hard. My grandmother was one in a million. I will never get over her death. I treasure the items she’s left behind and the memories they hold. My mom loves how I displayed the plates. I wish you could have seen the joy in her eyes when she brought them over and told me she had finally found them. Love you, mom.💙🤍

✨This is a throwback to Part 11 of my series, “What’s Lost is Found.” I’m currently up to Part 40.✨

As fall gives way to darker days, these cozy little details sure do bring warmth to our historic home.✨Comment SHOP for links!

As soon as I saw this new @jeremiahbrent design from @loloirugs, it felt perfect for our little powder room. I’ve been wanting something more substantial and cozy, with just the right amount of color, character
and detail. #loloipartner 

Shop all of Jeremiah Brent’s stunning new designs through the link in my bio or (or by commenting “SHOP”).

My boys love this new rug, noting that it’s cozy under their feet. I love that it’s vintage-inspired, handcrafted in India of 100% wool, and is GoodWeave-Certified, which means the rug is produced ethically and contributes to the advancement of weavers’ communities.

When you’re an SLP mom fueled by ADHD with a passion for vintage decor🏴‍☠️🪎☠️
🪎Most everything you see is sourced from estate sales, local thrift stores, my attic and my mom’s basement. My treasured antique banker’s cabinet was a very special gift from my best friend @jessicasmithjms and her mom 🥹🤎
🪎This year my speech team and I will be dressing as pirates for our school’s Halloween celebration because we love to teach the “arrr” sound 😂
👦🏼My youngest is also practicing his “r’s” so this was extra special for him 
📽️Last week, I shared a reel (What’s Lost is Found, Part 40) breaking down the major items/themes to look for while you’re out thrifting to create this look. Head to my feed to check it out. 

Next week I’ll continue to share more of my traditional fall styling around our home. If you love this sort of content, feel free to follow along with me, Kristen, @maplehousebuffalo 🍁
