Happy AUGUST and welcome to Thursday Favorite Things! I am so excited to be co-hosting this fabulous party with Katherine of Katherine’s Corner and a fantastic group of bloggers for this inspiring weekly link party for bloggers and blog readers!

If you would like to make some new friends,  grow your blog audience, or just find some weekly inspiration, this is the place to be! *Bloggers: Please leave a comment with the number of your link up for a chance to be featured at next week’s party. The hosts are all looking forward to what you’ll share this week! (If you missed the last party and the AWESOME features, you’ll find it here.) To get the party started, here’s what I have been up to recently:

This week I harvested a few of the red “roasting peppers” from my raised garden bed! This is a new-to-me pepper (Bonnie plants from Lowes.) I haven’t tried them yet but I will let you know how they taste next week. My tomatoes are way behind because I planted them late and they really didn’t get enough sunlight, but I should be able to harvest a few by next week.

Pin Away Wednesdays: Fall Wreath Ideas

This weekend I sorted through all of my wreath making supplies to get ready to make a couple of wreaths that will transition from late summer to fall. I am using some beautiful fall wreath ideas from Pinterest as inspiration. If you are looking for beautiful wreath ideas, be sure to check out the post!

“Throwback Thursday”

I always love this time of year when sunflowers are the stars in the garden. They are the perfect “transitional” flower to use from late summer into fall. Here’s a throwback post full of Summer-to-Fall Decorating Ideas with Sunflowers. This is a must-read for any sunflower lover!
