Wrapping Up September

Happy October, friends!  One of my very favorite quotes is by L.M. Montgomery: I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.  So, so true.  Big fat pumpkins, colorful fall foliage, hot apple cider … the very essence of October.  And we’re officially into the fall season and the start of the always-busy, always fun {sometimes a little crazy} holiday season!  Who’s getting excited about all that’s coming up on the calendar in the next few months?  Before we leap into all of that, let’s take a peek back at the top five most popular Dukes and Duchesses posts in September.  These are the posts you viewed the most, pinned and shared {as always, thank you!}.  If you missed any of these favorites, you can click on the links below to see all the details … or pin them for another day!

In September, I decorated my front porch for fall, topping my DIY headboard bench with different styles of pumpkins {pin it here} …
