We're experiencing a taste of winter in our area of the country today. There is even a chance of snow flurries. I do not like snow at. all. My plans for the day include sipping apple cider and starting a few small sewing projects. And probably some reading with a blanket. I think I'll hibernate until it warms up again. I won't have long to wait because it is supposed to be in the mid-60s by the weekend.
Today I thought it would be fun to share a few autumn deals for November. I love a good deal!

I bought this Vintage Owl Necklace with a few cents I had leftover from another purchase. Yes, I said cents.
This owl necklace is 63 cents and that includes shipping! I was most afraid that the quality would be poor, but the affordable price convinced me to give it a try. I'm glad I took the plunge, because it's been one of my favorite fall accessories.

I'm a tremendous fan of the Call the Midwife TV series. Though I read the first book years ago, I became acquainted with the other 2 books in the series earlier this year. The second book in the series, Call the Midwife: Shadows of the Workhouse, would appeal even to those who aren't a fan of the birth genre as it focuses on the author's time as a community nurse, away from her midwifery duties. I read the entire book this summer over 2-3 days on the back porch while watching my kids play. Grab your own copy while the Kindle edition is only $1.99!

I burn candles year round, but I especially burn them in the fall and winter. Brian works outside all day and he loves coming home in the cold weather to a house that smells rich with dinner cooking and a candle burning. I'm picky about my scents, though. It can't be too perfumy, but it has to give off enough of a smell to make it worth burning. My all-time favorite candle can be found at... Walmart. Who knew?!
The Mainstays Pumpkin Spice Candle is only $5 for a 20 oz. jar. It is not available online so you have to purchase it in-store.
There's a smaller version for $3, too, but doesn't last long enough for me.

One last deal, and this one is free! If you are traveling over Thanksgiving, you might want to print out my Doodling on the Road: A booklet of ideas for drawing in the car before you go. We brought this along on our family vacation in September for our oldest kids (ages 4-10).
I love pumpkin scented candles. I don't burn candles very often anymore, but I love all the fall scents I use in my Scentsy plugin. I have an orange pomander one that smells delicious.
