giving thanks

Thanksgiving isn't just about being thankful, its also about giving thanks.

Today, as we embark on our annual traditions, we decided to pause for a moment

and take the time to write thank you cards for all the important people in our lives.

It is these people that have molded us into the individuals we have become today.

We may not have very much being two twenty somethings in this world, but it sure

does feel like we've won the lottery with the people we have in our lives, and for that, we are forever thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving!

unraveled: sweater skirt

This week for our unraveled series, we turned our old recycled

sweaters into a sweater skirt.  It's one of our favorite cold

weather items and decided, it was much more

interesting to make our own!

Happy diy-ing!

sweater skirts

We adore a sweater skirt and the aesthetic it brings to a look. It's texture adds an element of cozy, yet slightly structured and can be worn in in a variety of ways. It's a perfect addition to a fall // winter wardrobe.

inspiration jar

It's finally Thanksgiving, one of our favorite holidays of the year.

   We decided to start our week right by pulling

 out our inspiration jar we started in January to reflect 

on the good this year brought and remembering

that it's not having what we want, but it's being thankful

for what we've got.

Happy Thanks week!

pumpkin pie pancakes

This time of year pumpkin is a popular ingredient in recipes for both food and drink. We incorporated one of our favorite fall flavors in a breakfast treat that is good with or without the sweet topping we've also created. 

Pumpkin Pie Pancakes

 2 1/3 c. pancake mix

1/3 c. canned pumpkin

1 1/4 c. milk

1/4 c. vegetable oil

2 tbsp. of sugar

1 tsp. of pumpkin pie spice

2 eggs

White chocolate and vanilla almond topping

1/2 c. crushed vanilla coated almonds

1/3 cup white chocolate chips

maple syrup 

Mix together all of the ingredients above in a medium sized mixing bowl. Pour into a griddle at medium heat. Flip and continue. For the topping,we just sprinkled the mixture over our maple syrup for a sweet crunch.

DIY {veiled}

 

 

 

 

 

After yesterday's inspiration board, we were excited to try to duplicate the look of the veiled beanie. We bought one yard of fishnet fabric and used a beanie that is already in our collection. For a temporary version, we folded the fishnet and secured it in the back in a twisted half knot as seen in picture one. We can remove and add it whenever we feel like incorporating the dramatic effect of the veil.
