New Fall like colors for my Toggle Button Collection. When I originally did my glaze test colors they were made in the two tone turquoise colors. They then transitioned into one color. I really like how the Wine, Gold and Brown colors came out. This collection of buttons is really versatile. They look great on everything and make fantastic clasps.Last weeks winner is OO Congratulations! You have won one of Jangles Christmas Tree Beads from the studio of Jennifer Heynen.

The summer is actually my favorite season but the thing I like most about fall is light scarves (love to acessorize) and Halloween. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love decorating and dressing up.
Fall is my favorite season! I love the brisk air, wearing snuggly sweatshirts, Halloween, Thanksgiving, gorgeous colors of changing leaves and campfires with family and friends... but, I think my favorite thing is the smell of leaves. Sounds crazy, but I always think of being a kid and jumping in the piles after we raked them.. it always had that distinct earthy smell.
Pumpkins!
I like the changing of the leaves and spending more time outdoors. The sunsets seem to be more spectacular... camera time! Thanks for the peek at the beads!
Hmmm, the smell of dried and fallen leaves in the crisp breeze, the sight of pumpkins and winter squash all piled up in front of stores, rain, rain, rain, trapping me inside where I feel motivated to cook and make art!
Falling leaves, blowing in the wind......mums and asters showing their beautiful colors.......family get togethers........cool, brisk air that is so invigorating.....gorgeous sweaters....fall craft shows......snuggling!!!
Ooo, I love sweater weather -- I love the crispness of the cool air and the changing colors of the leaves. It's still summer here in N.Central Texas and I won't be putting on a sweater for about a month. Would someone be willing to give me an extra portion of fall for this last bit of summer??

I like fall.I smell fires burning on early mornings,apple pies,and a crispness in the air.I love working in the yard now.Best of all,it's now not too hot for my dog and I to take walks and enjoy them.
Fall is my favorite season too. I love the cooler weather and changing leaves in Michigan. I also love going back to school to a brand new group of kids. Nancy
Diana, scarves are so popular right now. The assortments to choose from are great!
Rachael, such great memories of being a kid and jumping into piles of leaves. We used to do it too!
Regina, pumpkins are great! And they can get you all the way to Thanksgiving for decorations.
JoyAP, I love the outdoor time in fall it makes me want to go hiking. Instead I coach soccer.
Pam, the rain and cooler weather make me want to take a nap! I love hearing the leaves blow in the wind.
Pamela, I love watching the leaves fall. Makes me want to get snuggly on the sofa with a blanket and a cup of coffee.
Emanda, I look forward to sweater weather. If I could send you some of our cooler Ohio weather I would!
Gail, I love the smell of apples baking. Fall evokes so much emotion. I just love it!
baglady/Nancy, my husband is a teacher too. He is so ready to back at school by the time August comes around. You have beautiful falls in Michigan.
Autumn is my favorite season! I love the invigorating crisp air, the vibrant colors, a tendancy to 'nest' and be with family, the creativity that seems to go hand in hand with the season.
Love the toggle collection!
I love running in the fall, the weather is cool and dry, the scenery is wonderful as the leaves change, and the days still provide many hours of great sunshine.
Fall is my absolute -favorite- time of year... I've always been a fan of the cool weather, but in recent years, I've really come to appreciate how much cleaner everything is in fall. Here in the mountains, the air feels and smells crisp and sharp, the sky always feels more welcoming, and at night, the stars are clearer than they are any other time of the year. The leaves are pretty too, but it's really the change in the outdoor environment that spells fall to me.
Just today I was thinking about the things I love about this time of year. Huge pots of hardy mums, pumpkins and gourds, changing colors on the trees, sleeping under the blanket at night without the furnace running. Walking my dog. I could go on forever.
I love the fall air. There's a feeling of change in crisp fall air that i find enticing.
I love the fact that we are headed towards spring!
Color. It seems that every day there are new surprises waiting for me around every corner. It really perks me up on the same rounte that I take each day since it no longer looks the same. And I love to watch my son play football in this weather.
Enjoy the day!
Erin
PS Love the buttons! Great colors!
Thanks Alice! The air is so great in the fall.
Sue, I don't run but I do walk in the morning and I enjoy the cool weather and the changing leaves.
Amanda, I can see and feel your description. Love it!
Rosanne, I love being able to sleep under the blanket. Saving energy with not AC or heat is always a plus. Show us pics of your pumpkins and gourds.
Dale, the air in fall is the best. Love sitting outside all wrapped up.
rosebud, now that's being optimistic!
Erin/Tresori, color is everything. Nature is so inspiring with her fall colors. Glad you like the buttons.
I love fall too. Crisp air, the smell of pumpkin pies, juicy apples, Halloween and those great orange and black decorations, crunchy leaves. I use to love the smell of burning leaves--but no one is allowed to burn any more. When I was a kid the neighbors would pile all their leaves together in the street and we would bury potatoes under them to be baked by the burning leaves. SueZ
SueZ, I would never have thought to put potatoes under the leaves. I feel some time outside by the chiminea coming on!
In Vegas it is finally cool enough to walk outside during the day instead of just in the mornings. The sunsets are wonderous--full of color you do not see in the summer.That is my favorite inspiration in the fall
Fall is my most favorite time of year!! I love the brisk, cool mornings...the changing of the leaves...and of course all the fall colors...and looking forward to Halloween and Thanksgiving
Valerie, I'm happy for you the weather is cool enough to be outside. I would love to see a fall Vegas sunset!
sundownbeaddesigns, I love Halloween and Thanksgiving...mmmmm pecan pie!
The hot days of summer tend to discourage any warm kitchen activities, and the nice days are better spent outside. I love it when the weather turns nasty, and I get to spend indoors baking or making crafts.
s_baghaii, I try really hard not to turn the oven on in the summer. Fall starts the wanting to bake in me too.
I truly love fall and miss it here in Tucson. My favorite part is going outside & kicking leaves:)
Beautiful work!
Jolene
Thanks Jolene! My 11 year old still goes out and rakes leaves just so she can jump in them and kick them around.
It's difficult to choose...there isn't much about fall that I don't love! It's my favorite season, but I love to watch the leaves change into their fall colors and I love to burn fall scented candles.
Patti, I agree. It's time to switch flavors of the wall plug-ins to Creamy Nutmeg. My fave from Bath&Body Works.
Fall is my favorite too. I love the colors, the smell, bringing out sweaters and crisp apples. We are having a beautiful one so far here in VA.
Those toggles are just fantastic! Hmmm, so many things to like about fall but since I live in a place with minimal weather change, I'm going to go with Caramel Apple Pie!
Fall is my favorite time of year. The weather is great, not too hot or cold. The skies are mostly sunny, with fewer storms than other seasons. I love the fall leaves, apple cider, and pumpkin pie. I love fall clothing with pretty sweaters, plaids, and colorful tights. I love fall colors including warm yellow-golds, deep reds and oranges, warm browns, and hints of purple. Autumn also reminds me of school days, books, and learning which I have enjoyed. I also have fun cheering on my school's football team. I love fall so much, that I choose October for my wedding, and I have lovely memories of that day. I don't think there is anything about fall that I do not like!
My favorite part of fall is the cooler nights. It's not really cold but it is perfect weather for a hot cup of tea.
my fall favorite things are the pumpkin spice creamer for your coffee, the cooler weather and all the apple and harvest dishes I make at this time of year. The colors of the leaves are inspirational as well.
