I celebrated the first day of fall yesterday with the Etsy NY Team at the Montague St. Summer Space festival in Brooklyn Heights and had a good time showing little kids how to make their own tiny books. It was a gorgeous and clear day, but the wind kept blowing our paper scraps all over the place. All I wanted was a thicker sweater and a cup of mocha to keep up with the stream of kids.
Now that the new season is here, I can't wait for pancakes flavored with pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon, coconut oil massages by candlelight, and finally busting out my cozy throws, tights and brown leather boots again. As much as I love summer as well, the hot flashes brought on by the tamoxifen made it so unbearable for me at times. Hopefully the cooler weather will even me out.
What are you looking forward to in the cooler months? To decorate for the season, download this pretty Autumn Essentials watercolor print from the Jones Design Company. Summer fans who still want to cling to summer days, can print this one instead.
