Ageless Style & Cozy Cardigans

 I was asked to join up with a group of ladies for the Ageless Style monthly style challenge. I was a bit apprehensive at first because I am not a style blogger but I figured why not? It's always good to say yes to things that push us out of our comfort zone a bit. 

This month's theme "Cozy Cardigans" was chosen by Amy of Amy's Creative Pursuits.  I was thrilled because I just love cardigans and it's one of those fall staples that get added to my wardrobe quite early on in the season since it's easy enough to take off when the weather fluctuates. 

I asked my boys to snap a few photos of me in one of my favorite cardigans while we were out hiking and I think they did a great job!

I tend to buy longer cardigans and love the fall colors of this one.  I almost always pair my cardigans with a scoop neck tank or tee, some jeans, cute boots and a long necklace.






I hope you'll visit everyone else to see how they styled their cozy cardigans too!

    Well done! Love the pictures and the colors in this cardigan are beautiful. I used to have a similar one in different colors but just didn't like it on me. I have learned that I only wear the waterfall style ones so I don't buy any caridgans now unless thrifted or given to me and only in that style. More of a sweater gal here.

    They did a really great job with the pictures! Looks like such a neat place to be out in nature. I'm not one for long garments, but it certainly does look cozy.

      That's why I immediately thought of using this one! I love the autumn colors and tend to only wear it for a few months in fall.

    Love that we styled a similar if not exact same cardigan. It is the perfect fall cardi. And it looks great with the scoop neck tee and those boots. Gosh your photo shoot backdrop is equally lovely. Looks like fall is slowly coming to your woods. Here, too. We are still experiencing highs near 90*!!

      Yep, I tend to wear my cardigans through spring too. Heck, I've even pulled them out a time or two in summer depending on the year as some years our temps just don't warm up very much.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my ...

Making Gift Card and Money Holders Using Scrapbooking and Cardmaking Supples

Image
I don't tend to keep a lot of crafting supplies on hand so when I saw this month's de-stash challenge I wasn't sure what I was going to make.  I finally realized that with so many of my Christmas gifts being cash and gift cards this year that I needed to make up some fun paper crafting/ creative ways to gift them.   I still want my nieces and nephews to have something to open so I pulled out my papers and stamps and made up some cute little money/gift card holders. They were much easier to make than I thought.  The first one I worked on was to hold some oversized Nintendo gift cards.  I made a standard sized card and folded down one corner of the card front.  Then I ran my double sided tape along the bottom an 1/2 way up the side creating a cute little pocket.  Finally I added some cute embellishments and ribbons.   Voila! A simple and easy gift card holder for those larger sized gift cards.  The bulk of the tweens and teens on my list j...

Making a Sugar Cookie "Gingerbread" House

Image
 Alec really wanted to try making his own gingerbread house this year without using a premade kit.  We talked about how we never really eat the house since they don't taste very good.  Years ago we gave up on the frosting that comes in the kit and began making our own so we thought perhaps we should try making our our house too. Only problem is that no one in the house likes gingerbread.  We talked about trying to make the house using a sugar cookie recipe.  Alec was so excited at that idea since he just LOVES sugar cookies.   He found a recipe online for a simple sugar cookie recipe and mixed up the dough.  He rolled it out an cut it to the size of our cookie sheets-- we had read that it's easiest to cut the house pieces out after the dough has been baked and is still warm and soft because then you don't have to worry about any of the pieces losing their shape while baking. I had picked out a simple cookie cutter set on Amazon and as soon as the ...
