Tuesday Turn About #113 Fall Beginnings
The party has started… and along with Tuesday Turn About #113 Fall Beginnings, you may have noticed another ‘beginning’ today!
TUESDAY TURN ABOUT #113 FALL BEGINNINGS
We had some Summer Fun at last week’s TTA!
Happy Tuesday, everyone!
Today, we’re celebrating the beginning of fall! Well, it IS just around the corner, so we gotta start preparing for the season, right?
And, coincidentally, I’m also celebrating the new and improved My Wee Abode site! What do you think?
There are definite ‘tweaks’ that still need to be done and, believe me, I’m working on the fine-tuning.
And that Logo!
By the way, the logo IS complete, and I LOVE it! The graphic artist from Fiverr.com did a wonderful job and she was very versatile! She listened to what I wanted, gave me four different designs to start with, and ‘married’ the two that were my faves!
What do YOU think about the new look?
If you have any questions, or suggestions, feel free to leave them in the comments section below!
Now, let’s look at a couple tips before we look at our ‘fall beginnings’ features!

Weekly Household Tip
Have you ever tried using wool dryer balls? They really work! And cut drying time by about 25%!
Weekly Blogging Tip
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I lose sight of what I truly love to blog about… You, too! Well then, let’s be friends! (Oh, we already are friends!)
Anyways, sometimes it’s just a good idea to step back and say to ourselves, “What do I really want to blog about? Have I lost site of my original ‘love’? Do I need to get focused on what I truly want to offer to others?”
Let’s all take a moment (or 3) to take stock of what we want our blog to be about… and how we want to help others!
Now, let’s start this party! And remember…

This Week’s Features:
Painted Pots for a Fall Garden (or home!)
These bohemian-style painted pots from Olivia OHern blog are simply lovely! You could create these for a minimal fall vibe and place them in your autumn garden or use them in your home! So pretty, and Olivia is offering free stencils for this project!
Early Fall Outdoor Shelter
DeeDee from Clover House is sharing her new outdoor ‘gazebo’. This little shelter is a perfect solution for a tiny house, or even for just adding a ‘screened-in-porch’ type of space no matter what size home! Take a look at all the ‘deets’ on DeeDee’s site.
A Coffee Station for All Seasons
If you haven’t visited The Crowned Goat, you are missing out! CoCo is showing us how she styles her coffee station cabinet for all the seasons! Take a look, and help her make a decision for updating her cabinet, too! 😉

It was so fun to start seeing fall posts trickling in! I love fall and Christmas decor DIYs and decor, don’t you? There’s just somethin’ about it!
Love the new look, Julie!! Congratulations! I’ve got to buckle down and update mine sometime in the next few months – I may have to figure out how to clone myself first, but you’ve inspired me!
I so get it, Janet… there is ALWAYS something. Whether it’s work, family, the blog… and the one thing necessary… Time with the Lord! He is in control of time, thankfully!
Love the new look of your blog Julie. It’s so fresh and easy to navigate. Thanks for the hootenanny!
Thank you! Worked more on it tonight, and got mobile working! Yay!!!
Congratulations on the new site, Julie! It’s fabulous! Thanks so much for featuring our cabinet and weighing in too! Hope your week has been a fun one. Hugs and thank yous, CoCo
Thanks, CoCo… it looks like I wasn’t the only one that like the doors ‘open’. 😉
Oh my gosh, Julie! I LOVE the new logo! I may need to get your contact’s info. I would love to get a professional logo done one fo these days.
You would not believe how affordable it was! And I got a LOT for the price! 😉
Lovely to be here and finally have something to share! Have a wonderful week!
So glad to see your here, my friend! Hugs and hearts!
Julie!!! I love the new blog look and especially the new logo. It’s perfect! I can’t wait to see more of the new blog and I’m so excited for you.
Thank you, dear friend! As always, the tech stuff is a learning curve, but I’m getting it! R316 is amazing, too! 😉
Julie. The blog looks great and I am in love with your new logo! Love the advice on focusing on what you initially wanted to blog on. Have a great week.
Thanks, Regina… I kind of love my logo, too! 😉 Hugs!
I really love your new logo! Very nice! I have used dryer balls and I quite like them. To make them extra nice, sprinkle some essential oil on each one (I have 3). Don’t soak them in it, just a few spots on each ball and that will make your dryer items smell lovely!
I LOVE that idea for using essential oils on the wool dryer balls! I’m going to share that as a tip for this week’s party! Thanks, Colleen!
I love your new logo and blog design! Thank you for hosting the party each week.
Thank you, dear friend! Love ya!
The new look is great. I love the logo! Thanks for hosting, Julie. Hope you’re having a lovely week.
Thanks, Beverly! I still have a lot of fine-tuning to do too!
Julie, the new site and logo are fab! I’ve done some refreshing over the summer, but need to do more.
Recently, I’ve had some serious thoughts on the same question you posed about blogging. It’s always good to pause and take stock of where you want to go. I’m still praying on it.
Maybe the course you set for blogging is the same, but everything in the world seems to be changing and you feel the need to adjust to it???
Hugs,
RR
Yes.. things are always changing. Need to look to the Lord for everything… even stepping back and looking at the blog!
Great new look!
Thanks again for hosting this lovely party every week! I know how much time and effort goes into doing so and I want you to know that it is greatly appreciated!! Stay safe, healthy and happy!!
Hugs,
Debbie
Thanks, Debbie! I’m loving it!
I love your new logo, Julie, as well as the colors! I’ve been using the wool dryer balls exclusively for a few years now and they definitely work. I add a few drops of lavender essential oils periodically to scent the laundry. Your blogging tip couldn’t be more timely as I recently did a reassessment and now feel far more focused. Linking up with two late-summer outdoor projects. I hope you have a lovely Wednesday!
Ooooo, I need to use some essential oils, too! Great idea!! Thanks for the kinds words, too, sweet friend!
Julie, Congrats on your new site redesign – it’s wonderful! It really comes alive. So happy for you and appreciate the community you build here very much! Best, Jen
Thanks, Jen! So kind of you!
Thank you for hosting every week – it’s greatly appreciated! Sharing some new recipes from Homemade on a Weeknight.
Thanks for joining us, Estelle!
Julie- it all looks great! I love the logo and the new look of your site. Congrats my friend. I am sure it feels so good! Thanks for another fun party & have a great week. XO- MaryJo
Thanks, MaryJo! It does feel good, and I believe my traffic has increased since the update, too!
Looks great, my friend! Well done!
Thanks, Holly! My traffic seems to have increased since updating, too!
Love the Sage theme, I went back and forth with this one and Refined. I chose Refined, but I am thinking about getting the Sage blocks, I just love so much about this theme, I kind of wish I had chosen it! Thanks for hosting the link party!
Thanks, Jennifer! I’m definitely still tweaking it!
Great party!! Thank you so much for hosting. Have a wonderful weekend.
So happy to see you each week, Helen!
