September in the Bay Area might actually be the hottest month of the year – but nothing will stop me from getting ready for my favorite season of all. Damn you 90 degree weather, I will wear my leather boots if I want to. Hubby shakes his head when he sees me get out of the door – stubborn much? 
That being said, we’re putting together a little camping trip with friends in the redwood forest this together (similar to what we did last year), and I just can’t wait to pack all of our camping gear, cosy sweaters, drink hot cocoa by the fire. It will be our first camping trip with a baby too!
I’ve been gathered little DIYs that are just perfect for fall:
1. Wooden polaroid gift set: Love this DIY by my friend Ashley at Sugar & Cloth. I think it would make the sweetest wedding present using pictures of the couples together, or for first time parents with pictures of their baby.
2. Basic weaving tutorial: Do you guys know how to weave? My hands are itching to…another thing to add to the list I guess. But when I do get to it, I’ll be coming back to this tutorial on A Beautiful Mess
3. Cross-stitch stool: by yours truly I have actually just been asked to make another fall/winter version of this stool for a magazine…it will be fun to make another 3 years later!
4. Leather catch-all wall pockets: I just about died when I saw those on Justina’s blog. They are simply perfect!
5. Hot water bottle cosy: If you know how to crochet, then this is the perfect fall/winter project! hot water bottle make me nostalgic – my grand-ma always had a hot water bottle to warm up our beds whenever we had a sleepover at her house – she was old school, no heat in the house.
6. Headbands: Love this idea of cutting up old shirts to turn into pretty little headbands
Also, I wouldn’t mind making waffles and trying out these guys on our camping trip – talk about awesome s’mores! Happy weekend, friends!
