Make Fall Happy Y'all With These 3 Creative Ideas.

Hi, Creative Friends-

It’s September! It isn’t officially autumn but it IS time to get ready for days brimming with magical warm greetings, making with dashes of cinnamon, and curling up in a warm sweater to do something thougtful. That’s why…

This week, here are 3 creative ideas to start off fall happy…

  1. Greetings For Fall Y’all: Greeting a new season in a new way, whether it’s mentally taking a moment to celebrate the switch from one season to the next or by purchasing something beautiful to celebrate a new beginning can inspire happiness! Try framing and placing this “Happy Fall Y’all” art print on a mantel or display it on a door. A simple act can spread and help celebrate the autumn shift in such a big way!

  2. Delicious To The Core: In last week’s newsletter, I shared a secret recipe: The Ultimate Apple Pie Milkshake which uses autumn’s most delicious and perfect apple, the Honeycrisp, to make the most divinely, decadent milkshake. You can find the recipe again here but if learning something new this fall sounds like a good way to create happiness, try Molly Wilk’s virtual french baking class “Tarte Tatin” class. In the class, we will learn how to make a true French classic – Tarte Tatin, an upside-down apple cake!

  3. Fall Into Sketching: The longer days can bring us indoors and we might find ourselves looking for something other than Netflix to keep our brains happy. Try this Skillshare class “Illustrated Journaling” by the very talented Dylan Mierzwinski. I’ve been taking the class and it’s a super fun way to relax and get creative everyday! If you are new to sketching and need a good set of supplies to make sketching satisfying and happy, here are my personal favorites: markers, pens, and a notebook/sketchbook.

Drop me a message and let me know what you are working on or what you will do to make the start of fall happy.

Also, thanks for reading. This newsletter takes some time to pull together. Consider showing your support by forwarding it to someone who might need some inspiration or buying some of my artwork at INPRNT or Society 6.
