Fall Checklist Printable
The weather is turning colder in Oklahoma. We don’t get a very long fall season around here. Our weather goes from cold to tornado weather, to REALLY hot for a long time, to a little bit chilly, then back to cold. And the cycle starts over again!
And yet, I love the change of seasons. Fall brings a special routine and rhythm around our house. The kids have settled into their school schedules. David and I are busy with home projects — I can’t wait to show you updates on the scullery! I’m working on designs for two homes, and my clients have been incredible. We’re ramping up for a busy holiday season with the Whitney English Planner Shop and our space in Mockingbird Manor.
Fall is a magical season! Don’t you agree?
Our team put together a new printable: the ultimate fall checklist! Get your home organized and prepared for the next season. It’s full of reminders about garden tending, seasonal house tips, and ways to think ahead. I’m printing out the checklist and running through all the to-dos!
