Hospitality is in my DNA. I founded Home with a Twist, a daughter’s twist on her mother’s traditions, in memory of my mother to celebrate her life and the gifts she shared with me. Mother loved to celebrate life’s occasions – big and small.She taught me how to prepare fabulous food, entertain guests with style and design a traditional home with a pop of color and a splash of animal print. Share my fondness of blending Mother’s mid-century style with a modern spin.

👻𝗦𝗶𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗕𝗢𝗢. When I found these beautiful black dishes at Target I knew they`d make a fun tablescape for Halloween. 🎃
I gathered up things I already had in my party pantry - black and white Buffalo plaid linens and napkins from @amymontgomeryhome, pumpkin appetizer plates, Mexican confetti glassware, bamboo flatware and my @totallytikaa inspired painted pumpkin filled with hot pink and orange Gerber daisies.
My favorite - @brachscandy Fall cream candy mix poured inside a margarita glass. I even used a tiny pumpkin to hold a lucite placecard. Little bats hover over the napkin and on top of the pumpkin. It`s totally bewitching. 🧙

🧙 𝘼 𝘽𝙚𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙁𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙩 𝙀𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙮 doesn`t have to be costly. Make it adorable with what you already have.
This year I decided not to spend all the money on real pumpkins. So I went with a mix of painted faux and a few real pumpkins. I already had the sphere boxwoods and one day it came to me I could add a witch hat for whimsy.

𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗹𝗱, 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝘄, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗹𝘂𝗲. I have my grandmother`s MCM sewing table. The machine inside is long gone but it hasn`t stopped me from using the table. I spiffed up the drawer pulls with a smidge of Rub-n-buff.
The new to me pink lamp is from @fortworththewait. I switched out the pleated shade for a drum shade. I named the lamp Blanche - tall and curvy she owns the room.
And lastly the blue Chinoiserie foot basin I filled with a huge faux orchid deconstructed from another pot and filled it with green moss. The gold pair of mirrors are a long ago purchase from Target.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹 - this year I went with symmetry and dried materials to carry me through until Thanksgiving.
The grasses, artichokes, pomegranates and berries are from Trader Joe`s several seasons ago, I`ve carefully stored away. The wheat bundles are from Magnolia Home, again from a few years ago, and I tied them with brown silk ribbon. The blue urns with the brown are beautifully paired.
The only new touch are faux sprigs of seeded eucalyptus to fill in the spaces. Link is in my Amazon store. Check my stories for closeups. Special appearance by Binx.

If you plant seeds they will grow. Great metaphor, right? My Zinnia garden is exploding as slightly cooler temps grace our days. If we feed, water and nurture the seeds we plant in life blessings will abound.

𝘼 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙩𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙚 doesn`t have to be costly. Everything in this photo was shopped from my home - so use what you already have. Just add one new-to-you piece every year and you`ll have a lovely collection.
Creamy Cinderella pumpkins in various sizes, two are ceramic candle holders, sit atop cake pedestals and a rusty iron urn. I tucked eucalyptus (the single item I purchased) under one pumpkin and put a mini topiary inside a vintage Johnson Brothers Friendly Village cream pitcher. And just a splash of animal print completes the look.
Always include a candle for a flickering glow. This tablescape will last well through Thanksgiving.

"The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.” — Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Labor Day signals the end of summer, but that doesn`t mean you say so long to refreshing sips. You must try @campcraftcocktails Sangria.
For the Sangria I added 12 oz. of 19 Crimes Snoop Cali Red to the jar filled with Camp`s blend of dried fruit refrigerate, spices and a pure cane sugar cube, refrigerate for three days, shake before serving.and pour over lime Topo Chico - so delicious!
Jabo`s Ace carries all CampCraft varieties and you can save the cute jars and recycle as drinking glasses for another gathering! Cheers!

Koula included all the special touches - my graphic logo atop vintage-inspired daisies reminiscent of a Swiss-dotted dress I wore in the 70s as my sister`s flower girl, honeybees, and my bowtie wearing kitty cat Trevor.
Cheers to my 57th year around the sun. 🍾🥂

My mother always said, "You didn`t walk when you were little. You were always in someone`s arms."
When I think about my special bond with my brother "Bow" it`s knowing how much he loved me. In almost every photo of us together he is holding me.
Sadly, the love he felt for me didn`t translate to how he felt about himself and his self care needs. After we lost him to suicide in 2011, I became an advocate for suicide awareness.
Suicide is not inevitable for anyone. By starting the conversation, providing support, and directing help to those who need it, we can prevent suicides and save lives. #NotAlone

𝙃𝙚𝙮, 𝙎𝙪𝙜𝙖𝙧! I loved skipping to the Five & Dime with my bestie for candy when we were little. So when I found and gifted her a Sugarwish box it brought back so many memories! 🍬
Swipe to see how I created a candy board for book club with my box and made treat bags from pages of old books. Buzz to my website in the bio to see the fun.🍭
The Denver based woman owned business curates treat boxes of candy, cookies, popcorn and snacks. You pick the size box and the recipient gets to choose their treat! Wouldn`t @sugarwishgirl be the perfect gift for a new college student or employee thank you! 🍫
