Hi everyone–it’s Anne from Circus Berry, back again with another fun printable for you. This one comes to you in celebration of Apple Day, which is on October 21. Once October comes and everything turns all Halloween, pumpkins, turkey, or even Christmas (yee gads!), the almighty Apple sort of gets left behind. So, in honor of the Apple (I mean, lets face it, it is one of the most fabulous fruits out there), I am sharing this Apple Party Favor Pocket Printable project with you today! Here you go–

Awesome Cruise Deals in October!
Hey ladies! If you’re itching to go on a cruise, October is the month to book it! My trusty friends at Get Away Today just announced all the latest and greatest from each of the major cruise lines. My husband and I (along with his siblings) are planning on doing our first cruise together this coming January. We went on an Alaskan cruise, just the two of us, earlier this year. And, we’ve done a couple with the kids (our Disney Cruise). So, this will be a first with other couples. We’re way excited! And of course, Get Away Today is helping me put the whole things together, since I’m obsessed with them. They make it super easy!!
October Visiting Teaching Message (she: Kiki)
Hi everyone, it’s Kiki here, and I’m so happy to be back this month with the October visiting teaching message. As usual, the printable is free, and would accompany a treat or a visit really well. This month the lesson is The Divine Mission of Jesus Christ: The Bread of Life. I’m loving all of these reminders of the different roles of Christ and hope you take a minute to read it.
Easy Halloween Craft… Mason Jar Jack-O-Lanterns (she: Maria)
Hello Everyone! This is Maria from Shopgirl again, and I’m excited to share a super easy and fun fall craft idea with you today! It’s hard to believe that it’s October already, and that the holiday season is just around the corner! These mason jar jack-o-lanterns would be a fun craft to do with kids, and they would also make for great little Halloween party favor containers if you filled them with candy (and not with a lit candle, obviously!) You can make the design as simple or as intricate as you like, and you can use clear or colored mason jars. Just a couple of minutes and a few craft supplies and you have a fun little fall decoration to put on your window sill or to give away! Read on to see how to make these…

Fall Leaves Printable (she: Holly)
Hi! I’m Holly from Bits of Everything and I am so ready for Fall! Are you? I’m sharing a fun fall leaves printable today that will add the perfect touch to your Fall decor.
My mom always loved the changing leaves, especially red leaves. Changing leaves will always remind me of her. I loved this quote that is just a good reminder to slow down and enjoy the season. I know… it’s easier said than done. One tradition that we always take the time for is to take a drive up the canyon to see the leaves. I’m excited to do that this coming weekend! It’s one of my favorite traditions I do with my family.

Parchment Decorating Bag {Tutorial} (she: Gina)
Hi everyone, it’s Gina visiting again from Kleinworth & Co.! Are you excited to be kicking off the Holiday Season? I know that I have a whole lot of baking to do in the next couple months & I’m sure you do too. Which is probably why October 10th is Cake Decoration Day. So to help celebrate that, I thought I would share with you all a cake decorating tutorial today.
You see, my mom was an expert cake decorator & did it professionally for most of her adult life. I grew up watching her & picking up a few things here & there along the way. I so wish I had paid more attention to the finer details because now that I have all her tools I feel like I have so much to learn. There is a lot to know about cake decorating!! One thing I remember her doing ALL THE TIME was creating these Parchment Decorating Bags. When you are piping icing – these simple little disposable bags are the easiest way to draw or write on whatever you are decorating. Because they are small it makes them so much easier to handle. Let me show you just how to make your own.
