Bringing in Autumn with #FebrezeFall

This post has been sponsored by SheSpeaks and Febreze. All opinions are my own.

It’s my favorite season: FALL. Living in Southern California, I don’t get to experience it as much as I did when I lived in Connecticut, but I can still pick out the trees that do change colors on my street, and I can at least bring those great fall touches to the inside of my home. Part of that comes from adding in the colors, flavors and scents of the season. Thank you Febreze for creating your new Home Harvest Collection of scents.

One day last week, I happened to find a huge box on my doorstep. What was inside made me smile. How adorable is this?

Febreze has an entire new line with scents that will make any house feel warm and cozy. Remember how your home smells when you cook Thanksgiving dinner? Now you can get the same feeling with Febreze.

The plugin freshener is my absolute favorite and I have one in my living room so you get that touch of sugar and vanilla (my chosen fragrance) when you walk into my house. There is also a Febreze car freshener that clips to the visor. I got Toasted Almond. Yum… wanna come for a ride?

One of the things included in my Home Harvest box was a recipe box full of great fall ideas for your home.

I loved all the recipe, activity and decor ideas, but I really wanted to try out one of them in particular: the Lightbulb Pear.

 You will probably have all the supplies you need in your home already.

The trick is making sure you hot glue as you go around the light bulb or else you might find the twine unraveling in places you don’t want it to. And watch out for your fingers… they don’t call it HOT glue for nothing.

The finished pears look ah-mazing! I love how easy they were to craft and how incredible they look as part of my home decor. You can even add some Febreze fragrance to them to make them really pop on your coffee table.

    You did a great job with your craft! I got this kit too and love the scents and thought the collection would make such a great gift. How about as a hostess gift if you were staying for awhile? I want to try some of the recipes, they look really good! Love it.

      The funny thing is I keep walking into my house wondering what smells so good and then I realize it’s the air freshener. I’ve done this a dozen times in the last few days.

    These turned out so cute! I’m going to save some lightbulbs when they burn out so I can try making this too!

      My husband wasn’t happy that I used new lightbulbs since they aren’t making them anymore. From now on, I’ll have to hoard the old ones.
