We’ve been taking advantage of the cooler weather and our neglected yard to get outside and get some things done before the cold weather actually settles in.

If any of you are in the same {perpetual procrastination because your life is currently just too overwhelming} state that I’m in… we have some fun inspiration for you. Because it’s actually the best time of year: Outdoor Project Inspiration for Fall!

This is a great project to take on to save your plants in stacking mode for the winter. While I’d love a greenhouse, that’s not in the cards for me right now, and these have served me well.
