Hey friends!!!! It’s been another busy September week here on Bunker Hill! Let me just say the weather has been gorgeous in New England lately. September is one of my favorite months here, the weather is still warm enough to wear sandals but it’s cool in the mornings and there’s usually a nice breeze at night to fall asleep to.
I’ve had a few followers ask me this week if our leaves have changed yet, the answer is not really. You can see a few overachievers starting to turn red in spots. Sadly, the big maples in my front yard are just dropping leaves without turning red…my husband is already complaining about the leaves on the lawn!!
New This Week!
Flea Markets & Antiques
Do you love hitting the flea market or antiquing as much as I do?? My friends do too!! This weekend we are sharing all kinds of goodies we found and some useful tips for what to look and how to incorporate them into your home styling.

Diy Tin Can Vase
Here’s a super easy DIY project...and all you need is a little bit of paint and a big tin can! I love using unique vessels for flowers and plants. This one was the perfect size for a big armful of hydrangeas from my garden!!
Great Fall Finds!
Do you have a World Market near you? We only have 1 in New Hampshire so I usually shop online. I went on to check out a cute pumpkin… but ended up scrolling and finding all kinds of affordable Fall finds!
I put together a post with some great ideas to spruce up your spaces for Autumn!!

Thanks for stopping by today! Being able to share my projects, DIYs, and decorating ideas with you is amazing. Leave a comment below; I love hearing from you! Feel free to drop me a note here if you have any questions.
get to know me
here are a few fun facts…
- I’ve lived in New England my entire life! This is good because the beach is my favorite place to be…even in the winter, I love to go breathe in the salt air.
- I am an EARLY BIRD!!! I rarely sleep past 4…it’s my favorite time of day and those wee hours are my most productive. (plus, I LOVE coffee!!)
- The Gilmore Girls is my favorite all-time TV show…I’ve seen every episode at least 20 times!! “You jump, I jump, Jack” is my #1 favorite. (I.Y.K.Y.K.)
You are the sweetest to share my kitchen Jennifer! Thank you so much.. it’s so nice to “meet” you! 🙂

Great post, Jennifer! I had no idea you were in the top 14 for Cottages & Bungalows. That’s amazing, congratulations! Also– I have a dried hydrangea just the color of yours (that you inspired me to clip) in my kitchen window right now. 🙂 Thanks for sharing my fall recipe post, friend. Have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks, Misty!! I was pretty excited about that!! Omg…I just cut another armful of hydrangeas!! I’m going to make a wreath this weekend(it’s only been on my content calendar for a 1½ months.)
Thank you so much for featuring my wood bead garland this week and congrats on being in the Cottages and Bungalow’s top 14.
