Hello Fall

Hey guys I'm back with another post. Today I'm going to be talking about fall because this is my first fall look on my blog for the season.

I have been noticing in my town that it has been getting colder in the morning, and the temperature is mild in the daytime. I just love it. I really can't wait for the leaves to start changing colors too. It just seems like the leaves have been green forever!! I'm hoping to get some really cute fall photos this season with some fall scenery. My family might take a trip up to the mountains like how we did last year. The mountains are just so pretty during the fall, and I really hope we go! Also if you want to see what we did last year in the mountains here is the blog post link if you're interested.

The next thing that i'm excited for is adding cute fall elements to my room. I bought a fall candle a couple weeks ago, and i'm just waiting to burn it. I don't want to get too excited too early. Maybe since this is my first fall look on my blog I should burn my pumpkin gingerbread candle, even though it's only September 15th. Anyways, enough of me looking for an excuse to burn my fall candle too early, let's get into the rest.

The thing i'm most excited for is fall fashion!! It's time to crank out those white girl boots, yep you heard me. I just love wearing boots with cozy socks. And i'm so excited to live in cozy leggings, flannels, jeans, and cozy sweaters. Last year I lived in leggings in the fall, and winter. They are like my go to once it starts getting cooler outside.

Outfit Details: My top is from Belk, My pants are from my YMI usa, My hat is from ebags online, my glasses are from coach, the basket is from The Longaberger company, and my watch is from Jord watches.

That is all for this post. I would love to hear you guy's fall favorites. I'll see you guys next Wednesday with another post.

How to Paint Your Own Planter

Hey guys welcome to the first post of my series "At Home With Sugarcoatedbears". Today I thought I would paint my own planter that I have to hold a basil plant that I got recently. The planter before was just an average planter, just brown in color. But then I had the idea of painting the planter. So here is how I painted my planter, and how you can paint your own planter pretty easily.

So for this DIY you're going to need a planter, a cup that you don't mind getting a little grungy(but you can also use anything that holds water pretty much), one piece of palette paper, a big paintbrush, a small paintbrush, and the paint that you want to use.

So first go to fill up the water cup that way you can clean your brushes, and such.

Next lay get a piece of palette paper, and place the paints that you're working with on there. Then after that, start to paint your planter.

This was how my little basil plant looked after one coat of paint. But for this DIY project you will need to do three coats of paint if you're aiming for the look of my planter. It just depends on what kind of look you want.

So this is how my planter looked after three coats. The coverage is pretty good, and you can't see the old brown color on the outside of it. So now wait for that to dry, and move onto the bottom piece of the planter if your planter has that kind of thing.

For the bottom piece I went in for the same white that I used earlier. So I just paint that on, and I only did two layers on this piece because It's not as noticeable, but you can do three to be safe. Then wait for everything to dry so then you can add the extra details if you're doing that.

Now I'm painting on these black little rectangular polka dots. I painted this near the top of the planter because that was the design I was going for.

Then this was the final product. I think it turned out really cute, and kind of boho. I really like it, and it's affordable to make.

Thanks for tuning into the new series, I can't wait for all the exciting things coming up! I'll see you guys on Friday with another post.
