Welcoming Fall to the Homestead | Cozy Fall Decorate with Me

Hey Friend, join me in our little home for some cozy fall decorating and baking as we welcome Autumn to the Homestead. I'll show you how I decorate for fall on a budget, still bringing warmth and colors of the season to our space.

Thanks for hanging out,
Kelsey

Your introduction was beautifully said. I think we are all nervous with the upcoming election and it’s in God’s hands. What a reminder that we need to focus on him and the love he showed to us through Christ. Thank you .

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you so much! It seems we are all sitting on the edge of our seats just waiting to see what comes of it all! God’s got this one too ❤️

[@rachellincoln846]

You honestly have the best musical selections of anyone I follow on KZbin. Very peaceful, which is exactly what the world needs right now.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Huge compliment, thank you! Music can make or break a video for me so I try to choose carefully! I’m so glad you appreciate it! ❤️❤️❤️

[@danachapman2251]

Love your introduction! God is Sovereign! Creating beauty in a broken world! 🤍🤍🤍

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Thank you so much! Blessings ❤️

[@jo-sully-anne2418]

Hello, just what I needed today a visual conversation with you Kelsey. May God bless your family and home today and every day x

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Hello sweet friend! So glad to have you here. Thank you ❤️☺️🤗

[@nicolp7034]

Our Father has it all under control, and He is good always. Loved your words and I’m right there with you friend. We will always be the light no matter the circumstances. ❤

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Yes and Amen! ❤️🤗

[@annamccosker7878]

I truly valued that talk you had at the beginning of your video. It was point on, encouraging, and worthy to be remembered! Thank you for that, it is quite easy to get entangled within the affairs of this world and then become disheartened. We most certainly know WHO is truly in control, and be about His business. We are called to be apart of the world, do our duty as best we can, but be not conformed to it. Thank you for the beautiful reminder 🙏 Your home is so warm and peaceful..i wanted to be there with you having one of those delicious cups of coffee😂 Thank you for sharing your heart, home, and warm sentiments 🙂

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

So very true! Thank you! I so wish I’d could share a good cuppa with you friend! Perhaps one day. Blessings 🤗☺️❤️

[@sharenp3839]

Oh I totally agree with the state of this world. I continue to have a peaceful and slow paced life as much as I can, this world is not my forever home which is where I try to stay focused on. I love the picture above the fireplace, just gorgeous! Great job on the decorating. Several delicious recipes I think I’ll have to make some, I love scones. Have a blessed day 🍂

[@michellelooney6608]

I am so thankful that someone that I watch consistently FINALLY addressed our current climate in this country. We travel full time so, you kinda feel like one of my only "friends" so-to-speak. Lol. I have found myself wondering what anyone else with our lifestyle thinks or has to say about the situation we're in and the possible threats that come with this upcoming election. We are NOT political in any way anymore because none of them hold true to Godly values and morals. But, unfortunately, we're still seeing the effects of those who are buying into the chaos being put into play.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Absolutely! I try to be very intentional about what I share and pray into it. If the spirit leads, I’m willing to say what needs said. I’m praying for the candidates, I’m still voting praying for guidance. I know ultimately, God will make a way for His will to be done. P.s. we are totally friends ☺️🤗❤️

[@cindyclark9145]

This has been a beautiful God centered video and I have thoroughly enjoyed it!!! 🍁🧡🍁🧡

[@juliedayton8754]

Amen sister ❤️ Christ in me...truly is the HOPE of glory! Life's cares seem overly loud to my ears right now, so I appreciate the peace your channel deposited in me today. I pray our Father continues to bless & show His favor to you ❤️

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

You always bless me sweet sister. May He bless you abundantly 🤗❤️❤️❤️

[@JoyHuffman-b5y]

Thank you for the beautiful reminder of who is truly in control🙌🙌

[@debbieembury6885]

My Dad would take dried grasses and cut flowers, especially Hydrangeas and hang them upside down until completely dry. Once dry he would cover them in hairspray. The hairspray will help them to stand up tall and keep their petals without being shiny.

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Ohhh I so wish I had hydrangea to dry and use as decor, I just love them! ❤️

[@penneywilliams2590]

Beautiful

[@preppingmama]

A smaller version of those candles would be perfect for on a Christmas tree!

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Ohhh yes! I would love that so much!!!

[@katel9378]

Stunning!

What a lovely and peaceful video. Like you I am also not a big pumpkin spice girl 😗. When you said, “our coffee is on the lighter side” I had a brief moment of ‘huh’? Then I laughed because there has been a joke around here that ‘some’ like to have a little coffee with their cream 🤣 I haven’t had cream in my coffee for a year + or so. Lately though, I’ve really had an urge to have creamer. Making my own creamer blends has always been on the list but somehow hasn’t gotten done. I know my hubby will especially enjoy this creamer so I’ll have to see about whipping up a batch. Last night I picked up my Azure order and one of the things I bought was A2/A2 milk powder and a bottle of A2/A2 whole milk. I am mostly dairy free but I do have it occasionally and when I do I try to be mindful of what I’m consuming. I’m thinking I might also try making a homemade shelf stable version of creamer. This is a busy preserving weekend for me. I’ve got 3 boxes of tomatoes to get through and some fruit for pie fillings and jam as well. I’m still hoping we will get apples to finish up the seasonal canning. I’m ready to wrap up all the garden and canning projects and rest from that work for a bit. Thank you for sharing by way of video. Your mantle looks beautiful. God Bless you and yours. 🤗

[@seedandsparrowhomestead]

Hey friend! Thank you! I’ve been thinking of getting some A2 powdered from Azure! Something I’m lacking in my pantry preparedness! The drops are so far though 🫤 Sounds like you’ve got lots of fun canning to do! Coming to the finish line… at least the big projects for me! Blessings friend, have a great weekend 🤗☺️❤️

You have to be careful with filling up your cup and pouring it on people, in some states that's called assault and other states it's assault and battery. 🥛🫗
