Hello! 🍁 I hope you are doing amazing! I created this Fall wishlist / layout based on my current sentimental Autumn mood. After a hot summer, it can be hard to adjust to the darker days with the sun going down so early, but I’m more excited than ever to experience fall this year. What’s your favorite item on the list? Also, below the wishlist you can find some ideas (a pretty cool November to-do list, actually) for making this season unforgettable. 🍂🌰🎃🧣

So… how can you make the most of this season?

🥮 Bake a cake or cinnamon rolls for your neighbors! Haven't met them yet? There’s no better way to make a first impression than with a delicious treat in hand.

🥮 Explore local designer shops and support small businesses. Fall walks are even better with all the colorful leaves around! Plan a day, bring friends, and explore a local bakery, flower shop, and other cozy spots.

🥮 Pick up a new hobby like knitting, sewing, baking, or beading—perfect for long fall evenings! While we tend to stick to routines, sometimes what we really need is to learn something fresh that lets us use our hands. So relaxing!

🥮 Start a journal! Write down your thoughts, worries, fears, or ideas. It could be a diary, a scrapbook, or even a gratitude list. What are you most thankful for? Fall is the season to reflect and give thanks.

🥮 Create a Christmas gift list—and make one handmade gift for each person! Pinterest has tons of inspiration, and handmade gifts carry so much more value for loved ones. Make it a new tradition!

🥮 Play a board game! Don’t have one? It’s the perfect time to pick up something fun for your evenings. Choose anything from light-hearted to strategic games, and host a game night for friends or colleagues!

🥮 Embrace a spirit of giving by helping out. Do you have elderly neighbors who could use a hand? Offer to rake their leaves or help with grocery shopping. They’ll appreciate it, and you’ll feel great, too!

🥮 Collect fall leaves and make art! Search Pinterest for ideas, and get creative! Make leaf animals or try more intricate designs—the possibilities are endless.

🥮 Snag a cozy sweater for the season. I love thrifting mine. It’s affordable, and I can easily pass them on after the season if I want a fresh look next year. Sometimes, I’ll invest in a quality sweater I truly love, but mostly I keep it low-cost and sustainable!

🥮 Treat yourself to a hot bath. Add candles (safely, please!) and make the space super cozy. Put on a special fall playlist, add some bubbles, and let the warm, intimate setting help you unwind after a long day.
