It’s FriYay and time for Farmhouse Friday 363! As I pored over last week’s party links, an old song popped into my head. I changed one word and sang it all day. It was Nat King Cole’s version of I’m In The Mood For Love. Of course, the word fall was changed from love because I was feeling all the fall vibes. I was a happy camper all day.
Thankfully, we are finally down in the 90’s and I’ve started getting my fall decor out. So appropriately, I sang Fred Astaire’s version of Cheek to Cheek. “Heaven, I’m in heaven…”. Just picture me swaying around and dancing with an autumn pillow. I was in heaven! LOL!
Did you grow up watching Fred Astaire movies? If not, you poor thing! They are black-and-white movies with great dancing and funny storylines. I believe I’ve seen every one of his movies. Okay, I’ll admit, I’ve seen every Gene Kelly and Bing Crosby movie too. Greatest childhood ever!
A DIY Pumpkin Candy Bowl With Cottagecore Vibes
If you missed the Pumpkin Palooza Pinterest Challenge, it’s a must-see. My friends and I shared a pumpkin craft and boy oh boy was I blown away by the creativity. Check all the DIY’s here.
To go along with the Pinterest Challenge we had, our theme this week is DIY’s. Let’s get to it.
FARMHOUSE FRIDAY 363!
Ann from The Apple Street Cottage shows off her talents by making a wind chime from a wine bottle. That’s a great reason to host a party with wine and then recycle the leftover bottles! I bet the sound is lovely too.
Even if you don’t like chopping up books, this looks worth it. How cute is this paper garland from Julie at Sum of Their Stories?! You could change the colors to any season you want. Hop over to see how she did it. Totally pin worthy!
These Sweet Gum Tree balls were a menace when I was young. What a great idea from Cindy at Cloches and Lavender to make a wreath! Love this for Autumn. Visit her post to see how you too can save all the children and their bare feet! 😉
Anyone else eager to use air-dry clay besides me? I love this idea for a fall craft. Rachel from The Ponds Farmhouse makes it look easy and even tells you what NOT to do when making them. We all need honesty and a little fall fun in our lives. Check them out!

My pleasure Ann. It looks like outdoor art! Thank you for linking up.
I love Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly movies too!! My favorite part of afternoons after school was the old movies shown on TV. Saw some unforgettably good ones in all types of genres! Thanks for bringing those memories back — and thanks for a great party to start the holiday weekend.

We still watch them during Christmas. Like The Bishops Wife, Holiday Inn, and so many others. I wish they had them in color. Although it might be disappointing compared to my imagination. Have a good one!
Thanks for the party Cindy. Loved all those movies! They are the best. Gene Kelley is my favorite. I might have to watch one this weekend now. 🙂. XO- MaryJo

I know! I’ve been thinking the same thing. I love to watch them on rainy days but I don’t think we’ll have any of those for sometime and I bet the TV is going to be full of football for a while. 😉 I’ll be squeezing one in somewhere though. Have a great long weekend.
Hi Cindy, I shared my PC pumpkin craft post. Better late than never! Thanks for hosting…
Author
Oh yay! I’ll make sure and check it out. Let me know if you’d like to add the link to the end.
Finally… back to the 80’s today with rain. It’s been a long summer! Thanks for having us over, Cindy. I’m loving all these wonderful ideas! Happy Labor Day weekend!

I’m so jealous! Enjoy it and hopefully it just keeps getting cooler! Fingers crossed.
Thank you so much for featuring my wreath! As I said, I wouldn’t want to walk on these but they are gorgeous to decorate with for fall!

So glad you could join us this week. Happy Labor Day!
It’s a good thing “love” and “fall” are both one syllable… You’d be in trouble if you had to use ‘autumn’. 😉 Thanks for hosting!

Ain’t that the truth?! Happy holiday weekend Juie.
I am one of those persons that hates when stores and people jump into another season too quickly, and now I have become that person! LOL. Here in Minnesota has been so incredibly hot, that when the temperatures cooled, is like someone flipped a switch and I was all about fall. I have been fairly good about not decorating just yet though. LOL
Author
Uh oh! I wonder how much longer you’re going to be able to hold off?! I won’t do the outside for fear of what my neighbors will think but if we ever get a cool snap, I’m totally decorating the porchette! Hope the pumpkins and cornstalks get to the store soon! Thank you Angie. 🙂
Cindy,
Thanks so much for hosting this wonderful party!! I really appreciate the time and effort that goes into it along with visiting all the links!! I hope you are having a great week!!
