Caramel Apples

These might be the yummiest caramel apples I have ever seen. A perfect treat for a Halloween party. I might give these a try at our neighborhood get together.

Second post for you today. This country house in Lobos, in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Brimming with flea market finds, perhaps a bit over the top but you can see some interesting pieces in every room.

Hope you enjoyed our second tour! Goodnight, and sweet dreams!

Halloween Tricks and Treats

Halloween is such a great time to be creative and let your imagination soar.

Decorate your pumpkins with candy or a witch hat, and try your talents

at making a bat jar out of M&M's!

For your Halloween party, try some of these spooky props

and fun treat bags for your guests.

For your party, add colorful Halloween wreaths and handmade decorations.

I love the gold pumpkins for the outdoor display, and the lollipop holder is adorable!

Don't forget to make spiced pumpkin seeds. Mmmmm, my favorite! Get the recipe.

Want more inspiration? Food for decoration is one of my favorites!

Four Country Homes

Today we will have a look at four country homes through the lens of photographers, André Rider, Angus McRitchie, Michael Graydon and Stacey Brandford. My favourite home is the one captured by André Rider, though I'm also swooning over the Belgian style dining room by Stacey Brandford.
I'd love to know which home you like best!
