September is my most favorite month, it always brings the best weather and two special dates too. I celebrate both my anniversary and my birthday this month and I’m soaking up every lovely moment as the sun gets softer and the autumn breezes usher in the beautiful fall season. Can you feel it in the air?
For your Sunday reading, there are a few new articles over at my Better Homes & Gardens blog, just click the buttons below to get caught up!

Today, we’re finishing up the bathroom remodel over at the Alma Project house, hope to have pics to share tomorrow.
Enjoy your Sunday!

Ahhh fall… I love the crisp air…and football…and harvest. But will miss the way too short summer here in the Pacific Northwest.

Off to check the articles :D can’t wait to see the Alma bathroom!
glad to see a post on decorating with a brown couch! I’ve been going back and forth on how to update my family room (and we have brown leather couches). so timely. can’t wait to go read it!
So excited for the fall link up parties! I’ve already been hard at work on my mantel and outdoor decor! :)
Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary! I too have my anniversary and my bday this month, not to mention 3 other family bdays this month. September is a little crazy, but fun!
Happy Birthday Kate, I hope you enjoy your day. Can I feel it in air??? Um, yeah. I woke up this morning and the temperature in the house was 59 degrees – YIKES !!
Hi Kate
Happy Anniversary and Birthday! I loved reading your “Decorating with a brown sofa” post. On my blog, I’m currently doing a Friday series called Designing with Fall Colors and brown was my color of choice last Friday. I’m looking forward to participating in the Fall Link parties.
Have a nice day,
Simone
Kate,
Is there any way to get the source on one of the photos that you feature in your
“Decorating with a Brown Sofa” article? Specifically, the sixth photo down? Sure wish it felt like fall here in San Diego…unfortunately, it is pretty darn warm! Thanks so much…
Hi Ami, were you thinking of a particular item in the picture? The sofa itself?
What about the hall bath remodel you were doing? Last I remember you had added feet to the vanity cabinet and were selecting tile for the wall. Just searched to see if I missed the post about how that turned out, but doesn’t look like there was one – how did it turn out?
Hi Em, we’ve put it on hold while I’m working on some other spaces for our Alma House, so we’re living without that bathroom, but it’s on my list! The big holdup is new countertops, I’d love marble but it’s pricey and I’m on the hunt for a good solid surface solution.
Kate
Thanks for the link to the article on brown couches – we just bought one last week! Very helpful.
I absolutely love that article “Versatile Pieces For The Home” and how you’ve placed that nice white unit off the wall, so u can see through it. Amazing visual!
I agree Ben!
Kate
Thanks for the update, Kate! Your work with the Alma House is truly inspiring!
Fall is my favorite time of year! And like you, I also have my birthday and anniversary this month. So September is quadruply awesome! Happy September! :)
Hi Kate, thanks for getting back to me. We are about to do a kitchen remodel and I really want to open up the wall that divides the kitchen from our family room. This room is an inspiration to me because it is exactly what I envision for my space… I love the way the rooms transition and have the open concept look but it still feels like two rooms! Just wondering if their might be more pictures from those two spaces out there because I’m having a tough time convincing my family that taking the wall down will work.
Hi Kate, Love your blog and have been following you for a couple years now. I was interested in your BHG article on Decorating with a Brown Sofa but for some reason, none of the photos were available. All the was there was a square with the Internet broken graphic icon. Can you tell me where I could view the photos? In particular, the ones under the Cool It heading. Thanks.
Hi Maureen, try againk, they are all showing up for me!
