#cottagecore #falldecor #falldiys

It’s a throwback to simple decorating styles and maximalist results! I have a $20 challenge to beat and I’m going thrifting. So come along and see what wonderful finds I come up with and set the mood for autumn. 💗

*COUPONING DISCLAIMER*
Prices will vary from store to store. This is my personal coupon plan for each Saturday at Dollar General. Your store may not have the same items or prices, and you may not receive the same coupons due to coupons being regional.

*COUPONING TIPS*
1. Only clip the coupons you need for one trip! TRUST ME. Some coupons don’t work with each other, so only clip the ones you will use each Saturday at a time.

2. If the store is out of an item on your list, try substituting something of similar value and bonus if it has a coupon too.

3. Scan your items with the app in store to make sure you’re getting the deal.

4. Use a checkout with a cashier in case there’s a problem.

It is an old electrical insulator on the highlines.

Best fall video ever! I too am tired of the Fall y"all word-art and cutesy pumpkins.. This is so much more sophisticated!

[ahomelivedin]

THIS IS THE VIDEO I I’m tired of all the mass produced stuff. Great video

[EllisFern]

The vintage, moody, thrifted, woodsy aesthetic is my decor style year-round, so this video is definitely speaking to me!

[sucrebus]

YES! Finally someone says it, we've had too much catchy phrase Halloween decor, boring pumpkins, and the owls motif. This was a great video!

Ooh I love fall videos when it’s still 90 degrees outside. Gives me hope. I hate the heat of summer. This video calmed me and I’m getting out my paint and supplies right now.

[lisamarutz]

I totally agree with you, to many fall signs! Vintage treasures are always the best to decorate with 🧡🍁🧡

[daniella]

This is what I'm talking about!!!! Real fall decor. I'm inspired!!

[mitzisimpson]

Spray painting florals!!! My mind is blown! Excellent

[maryh]

The ghost and fall redo painting were my favorites. You never disappoint.

[emiliana]

This video needs to go viral!! I love everything about your decor ideas - the fact that you thrifted all items, then upgraded them minimally with high effect and chose a moody, more natural and calm style 🍂🍁 I especially love the painting (so stunning!!), the sprayed leaves and the candle lamps 💯❤️ but it's all beautiful and I will recreate your ideas for sure!! Please more 🙏🙏🙏

I SO AGREE! I have NEVER liked words on things. I don't need to know what season it is. I don't like generi, mass produced items-- which is why I've always loved antiques and primitive items. NEON FALL COLORS is trying too hard. Where did subtlety go? Muted fall colors are cozier. Simple materials, natural elements and moody lighting-- all of it says it's a gathering in time. Time to reflect, to feel melancholy. Time to reminisce and make more memories. And yes, to come in with the blustry wind in our hair and clothes.

Thank you so much for the video and tutorials. Nothing screams Fall like a bed full of leaves and pumpkins! LOL! Just kidding. I am 100% with you in being tired of all the signs and cutesy Fall decor. I love the thrift/antique store shopping and all the great things you picked up. AND my two favorite parts of the video are the beautiful picture redo of the cute country cottage house into a haunted house with ghosts and bats; AND you petting your 'long-ears' - what a beautiful animal! That was so relaxing and sweet. Thank you again! Take care and stay cool - we're still in the heat of Summer. 😊💖🙏🎃

It’s an insulator from high power lines. My grandfather was a lineman for PG&E many many years ago. He had quite a collection of them!

[Rebeccaful]

Cream and white kitty does fit the cozy vibe.❤

[jansusanjennafletcher]

What a great reminder to everyone that craft ideas can be found at thrift stores! Reuse and recycle for a little amount of money- crafts can be So expensive. Your projects are very Fall inspiring- thank you and I can’t wait to try a few!

I was just telling my husband yesterday how sick I was of the subway art, Cricut vinyl word cutouts, pumpkins, farm trucks, and fake "farmhouse" decor. I wanted to find some autumnal looking stuff that didn't overtly scream "fall", but that could blend in with my every day decor in the off season. I shopped my house first, then went thrifting. Shopping with that look in mind, I finally found SO MUCH STUFF at goodwill that everyone else was looking over! I didn't realize I wasn't the only one who felt this way- moodiness was exactly what I was going for. YouTube suggested this video so that's why I'm here- you nailed it!

[colorcrayon]

Everything is so cute, great job! Your little candlesticks might look extra cute with those flame bulbs that Hobby Lobby sells. Like a real candle! 😊

[LinaLeBlanc-lv]

Im in love with that picture with the ghosties, bats and owl. Its fabulous 🤩✨💕

[suzannelawson]

I am also tired of seeing words and sayings over eveything, no matter where you shop. Also tired of seeing gnomes everywhere and on everything.
