  Turkeys are nervous..urging everybody to eat more pie...pumpkin pie, that is!    Funny Turkey Realizes It's Thanksgiving! Custom A Apron by OpusPosh   And that's because it's that time of the year to get together and celebrate a quintessentially American tradition: Thanksgiving Day. Almost all of humanity joins to be thankful for all the blessings of their lives, but Americans dedicate a day to celebrate formally. And our homes turn the colors of fall with decorations, including those with turkeys, pumpkin pies, autumn leaves, pilgrims and more. Even our envelopes are decorated, Thanksgiving Autumn Leaves & Acorn Classic Round Sticker by OpusPosh   Autumn Thanksgiving Holiday Custom Classic Round Sticker by OpusPosh Happy Thanksgiving Day!

If you don't want to change a lot of things in your home each season, one thing you can change to celebrate each season is add a cushion or two! It's easy and the touch is practical and, actually, helps accentuate the theme as it contrasts with the rest of your decor. Whether it's funny, cute, antique, vintage or ultra modern, it will be more so if the rest of the decor is not...The more mainstream style is, of course, also great: matching your new item (cushion or other) with your decor. Either way, we all like to bring the season into our day and cushions and other details help us do that. Today I will show you some cushions from Zazzle, which you can customize to your liking...by adding or deleting those parts of the art that each artist has designed for you to change! Here they are! Hope you like them! This design features classic seamless autumn leaves in the rich colors of fall: red, deep yellows and browns. Like most cushions that will follow, this one is avai...

Throw blankets add comfort to our days but far from being a merely useful thing to have, they can be art! Throw blankets sure add to your home decor and set the mood of any season. Reds, brown and golden tones and motifs with leaves and trees set the mood for fall and instill a warm light into whichever room you set them in. They can also have text with a personal or seasonal message. I will be showing you a few of the throw blankets at Zazzle, which you can customize to your liking in many ways. Some of the are from my shop (find it here Opus Posh ) or made by others. Have you ever seen a nice blanket or pillow and you say ...geesh wish it had a different text? Or different lettering color? That's less of a problem at Zazzle. The great thing about Zazzle is you can customize the appearance (for example, in some items, you can even change background color) and, most importantly (at least for me!) is you can add your name or your own words to almost any item you like. I...

Most people love spring or..even more common, summer! But I do love autumn! Why? I think it's the season when nature shows off the grand finale of color and light display in all its splendor before erasing everything in winter before it starts again in spring. Don't get me wrong, winter is beautiful...particularly where it snows. The blankets of white and contrasting stark tree bark or the green of spruces and other evergreen trees are all enchanting, but fall is still my favorite! Autumn brings reds, rich browns, orange, gold..it's truly royal! And while Nature does it job outdoors, we bring it into our homes...all spiced up (pun intended) with the smells and tastes of the holidays. Family and friends get closer and the air gets festive and yes, full of food, pumpkin spiced latte (gasp!), hot cocoa and coffee (my favorite!). Here are some ideas for home decor! Some of these are designed by me and posted at my Zazzle shop called Opus Posh and some are made by other...

 It's that time of the year again...The fall is near and kids are going back to school.  If you're stressed out about all you have to do to get the kids ready....get inspired by the calmer weekdays that you will have...with time to relax, sip your coffee and have a less chaotic day. Yes, kids are the light of our lives, but we sure miss time with ourselves sometimes!   It's not easy to handle the mornings, particularly if you have many kids but here are some tips I've lived to keep the stress level low in the mornings! It's the way to do things for me since I myself was a kid! 1. Keep a schedule.       You may need to wake up a little earlier once classes begin, so it is better to go to bed a bit earlier. It may be difficult at first, so start a few days before classes start. That will give your sleep cycle to adjust.      Keeping a schedule helps you and the kids stay rested, fresh and ready for school and work and a...
