Can you believe it? It’s November already. It’s definitely crunch time. Time to get serious about fall decorating, Thanksgiving menu planning and of course, the holidays. Even though it’s a busy time of year, there were still plenty of beautiful projects shared on The Inspiration Board this week. Thank you to everyone who came by, commented or shared a project. You all make my day.
If you didn’t get a chance to drop in, here’s what I shared this week here on homework.
Now on to the projects in the spotlight this week:

Serene and sweet Sleepy Pumpkins from
Meeha Meeha. These untraditional Halloween colors painted onto gourds are wonderful and can be used throughout the fall and even for the winter holidays.

I haven’t had a caramel apple in years and this Toffee Crunch Caramel Apple by
Urbane Jane is making me crave that gooey goodness. Must.have.one.now!!

One of these days I’m going to clean out my spice cupboard and make everything organized and pretty. I love these spice jars and chalkboard labels by
The Concrete Cottage. So clean and organized (unlike mine…).

These tiny baby hats and blankets by
Don’t Mess with my Tutus and her girls are for a very heartbreaking and worthy cause – memory boxes for little angels.

Perfect for the season,
Club Chica Circle shows us how to make Pumpkin Spice Roasted Garbanzo Beans. Sounds like a great crunchy snack and a must try.

This beautiful grapevine wreath is so bursting with color that at first glance I didn’t think the leaves and berries were real. But nature is truly that beautiful.
An Extraordinary Day strolled outside to gather maple leaves and privet berries and created this gorgeous fresh wreath.
Two It Yourself turned a thrifted dresser into a wonderful storage piece with pretty red paint and new hardware. With the bottom drawers gone, the open space is perfect for large baskets.

Halloween is over but this Creepy Spider Themed party by
Vixen Made had so many fun details, I’m filing it away for next year. Check out the spider truffles, cookies, cotton candy and more.

These Simpson handmade party invitations made me smile. I mean that Homer Simpson face is too funny!
Black and White Obsession has a in depth tutorial on how she made these fun invitations.

Sweet Pumpkin Pie Nachos by
Shaken Together Life. At first you don’t think the flavors would work together until your discover that the chips are actually pie crust crisps. I’ve mentioned this before - I am a pie crust addict so these are my kind of nachos! Yum!
