Ok internet friends, if you haven't already it is high time to get in the mood for autumn! The pumpkin spice latte effect is in full swing, and we know all of you have already started pinning Halloween ideas and emailing us about homemade holiday gift ideas. Ok, ok. Let's just embrace it together. Here are 30 recipes and projects to try if you're wanting to get in the mood with us. 🙂TGIF y'all! Make some spiked maple apple cider this weekend.Too soon to make our own mittens? Never. These are so cute and would make a fun gift too. I say, pumpkin everything!!!! Try is pumpkin risotto this week. These would make a cute gift or could add just a little whimsy to your space. Make your own foxy plush. Try these homemade french toast sticks. Yum!It's time to add layers to our wardrobe for those chilly evenings. Make this tassel scarf. It's (finally) comfort food season! Celebrate by making a bloomin onion.Cozy up your place with your own beeswax candles.You've GOT to make your own spicy hot chocolate this season! Splurge with the giant marshmallows. Do it.Add a little warm to your room by making a latch hook rug. Love these baked french fries! You've gotta make these for someone soon. Cozy up with your own hand printed quilt. Check out how we made this in part 1 and part 2. Crank up that oven and bake this pull apart bread! Make your own stocking cap from an old sweater (great use for any sweaters you may have accidently shrunk… or is it just me who does that?).If you like baked potatoes you will LOVE this accordian potato recipe.A slightly healthier version of apple pie: baked apples. Yum! Add a festive touch to your front door and make your own rug. Warm up with my favorite bar food: fried pickles. Soon we'll be spending more time indoors (because it's cold!). You might think about adding a statement wall to your home this year.This month I will for sure be making my first batch of chili. Best week night dinner, espeically with Fritos. :) Spruce up your front door with an autumn wreath. Bake some bagels this month. They are awesome for breakfast or as a sandwich for lunch. To go with your hot chocolate or apple cider consider making these sharpie mugs. I call this coffee shop oatmeal. Super quick to make and the perfect filling breakfast. You could use any colors that fit your room's aesthtic to make your own braided rug. Impress your next dinner party guests by making your own sweet potato chips. Yummy! Try needle felting to fancy up a throw blanket or cardigan.Baking your own granola has the bonus effect of making your kitchen smell absolutley amazing! Try it.In need of some spice? Try this chipotle sweet potato soup. Warm yourself up with these easy spiced chai recipe. Happy autumn! xo. Emma + Elsie
Those mittens and hat both look so cute and cozy, maybe I will attempt to make some this fall or winter. It would be a great way to use those shrunken sweaters I can’t bring myself to get rid of!
I am not one to rush through seasons but PSL effect is REAL. I love fall too, esp now that I live in Austin and there is no freezing winter here to dread. My fave is the coffee shop oatmeal and plush fox. I am planning a Halloween dress rehearsal party soon and already getting geared up for it!
Bring it on!!! We are thrift store shopping for old jeans and a flannel shirt to make a homemade scarecrow. And of course the making of PUMPKIN snickerdoodles are high on the list of “all things pumpkin” around my house.
Mmm the recipes look great. So does everything else, but for me, autumn always means autumn recipes and especially pumpkin chai. 🙂 Thanks for the big list of autumn ideas – I definitely feel very autumney after reading it and looking at your beautiful photos. 🙂
Oh, I’m so ready for all things fall! I’m looking forward to knitting a scarf when the weather starts to turn chilly – those mittens may be calling my name. Thanks for making me even more excited about September, now I must pin a few favs.
Oh my gosh i have seriously fallen so behind! I have SO Many things bookmarked from your blog that I want to try!!!!!!!!!! I think I’m going to start with baking something pumpkin-ey this weekend!
this makes me excited and sad all at the same time…its 104 degrees in california and its not the same drinking pumpkin spice when you are sweating in a tank top. it also doesnt help that im 9 months pregnant : ). lets go fall! get here soon please!
This is so perfect. I might use these for every season. I just don’t care. I’ve never found anything like this before. This autumn is probably going to be the best <3
Oh my gosh, I need to try so many things on this list!! The French toast sticks, the baked apples, the foxy plush toys, the fried pickles!!! I <3 autumn!
Yay to beeswax candles and fox plushies! I also love making natural room scents in autumn and winter, heating water with slices of oranges and ginger and cinnamon. This post reminds me it’s time to do it again!
I love fall time, and these ideas have defiantly got me in the mood. Cannot wait to start on all the diy items you posted here, already ordering supplies 🙂
What a lovely idea, I particularly love the look of the baked French fries mmmmmmm they look delicious. I went blackberry picking the other day and just did a post all about a homemade blackberry crumble, I love autumn cooking!
I found these hats (http://www.etsy.com/shop/aneyeforeyes?ref=l2-shopheader-name) just in time for winter and Halloween! (And it says there are more to come! Yay!) Thanks for the great ideas! The sharpie mugs look like great Christmas gifts for some of my family. . .
I hate saying goodbye to summer, but this makes me look forward to cozy warm clothing and blankets. I can’t wait to add some spice to simple throw blanket with your stencil ideas.
It is still sunny and warm here but all of these projects have me stoked for autumn. I can’t wait for some hot apple cider, thick tights and creamy soup.
You just made me so excited for autumn. There are so many things on this list that I want to try! Last year I used your instructions to make beeswax candles and I love them! I’ve been thinking about trying them again this winter. They made great Christmas gifts.
Thanks for convincing me that autumn isn’t the end of the world and quite a season to anticipate – loving the ideas, hope the results of my attempts will look at least half as spectacular as in your stunning photos 😉
I really wish that we had more of a wreath culture in the UK. Christmas wreathes are just starting to catch on, but for years I got comments from everyone about the wreath on my front door. Maybe I should start the autumn wreath trend in our street?
I have always wanted to try beeswax candles, the color is so beautiful and I’m sure it smells great too.
I should definitely try that for Fall! http://www.living-vintage.com

I LOVE fall and am desperately waiting for it to arrive (California decided it’s summer again, WTF).
I am dying to make that pumpkin risotto and the fox plush! Also, that hat from a sweater?!?! Awesome!!!
These make me so excited for fall- too bad we have like 6 more weeks of summer left in Phoenix 🙂
Loved this post! I shared a link back to it on my blog — http://sarahlibros.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/fall-links.html.

Even though it’s almost 90 degrees here today, I’m looking forward to the chilly, cozy fall months…even if it’s going to take a while!
I bought some apple cider yesterday, so I guess I’ll be getting into the spirit whether the weather cools down or not!
These are all things that will lift my spirits when the dark evenings come in.Especially the apple cider 😉
