8 Crafts You Want To Do This Fall

Let's be honest, fall is a glorious time of the year. Here are 11 crafts that will satisfy your creative side, and allow you to make your home/apartment/dorm room a little more festive.

1.

For this craft, you only need four things! You could make these mason jars then fill them with tea light candles and put them all around your apartment just to make a soft glow. Want super cheap mason jars? Check out your local GoodWill stores - a lot of people go to recycle them there!

2.

This cute cup can be used for so many purposes and is super easy!! All you need are cheap wine glasses (you can find plastic ones at the dollar store!), paint and a paintbrush. You could technically do whatever leave colors you wanted too!.

3.

Want to mix it up and not use a wreath? Buy some cardboard letters (or cut out your own) and paint them whatever color you prefer! Then use your favorite ribbon to tie the letters together, and to tie the word to a door, or window.

4.

I am calling it now - leaf rubbing is the next big thing! Leaf rubbing is super easy, meaning that all you need is a leaf, paper and some sort of pencil. Just make sure to not get a leaf that is too crunchy...that could end up bad in multiple ways.

5.

So I have never actually looked for an acorn on the ground before but if I find one I am definitely do this!! If you could find a couple, paint them, and put then in a mason jar, you could definitely make cute centerpieces or paper weights.

6.

These adorable little candle holders only require sticks! Just use super glue or monkey glue to attach the sticks around a glass candle of your choice for a festive pick me up.

7.

Let's throw it back to elementary school for this one. Just grab your favorite sucker... think tootsie roll pop, some tissue paper, ribbon and googly eyes to make a sweet ghost! This craft, while quick, would be a good idea to distribute to some friends to get them in the spirit.

8.

If you happen to run across empty wine bottles, then this craft is for you. Take the bottle and thoroughly rinse it out. From there paint the outside your perferred color, wait to dry, and then add any detail that you would like. One the bottle is dry, you can fill it with fall flowers.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
