  29. I love the general feeling of coziness that the grey, blustery days conjure up. It's the perfect time of year to curl up near a fire, sip hot cocoa, and watch the whole series of Extras in one go.

  39. The best thing about autumn is the crisp breeze blowing across my face when I am outside in the morning. Having warm clothes on (scarf is a must!) but having the face exposed lets that cool breeze feel extra amazing. I love fall, though here in Florida it isnt much of a season. Just a little cooler out.Thank you! Carolyn McIntyre

  74. I love the feeling of total freedom the chilly air gives me. All summer I want to be outside and not let a single moment of the warm butterscotch sun pass me by. It's during those warm months that I focus on creating components whose techniques require warm temperatures. Awww but when Autumn arrives, I relish long days spent inside surrounded by beautiful gemstones and metals creating personal adornments. It's as if all that creative energy building up in the summer explodes out of my fingertips. I love it! The conflicting feelings melt away and I sit with a smile happily assembling one piece of jewelry after another. The red and orange leaves are dancing on the branches just now and my studio is calling me....

  83. The best thing about autumn has definitely got to be the time spent with family! For some reason we get together a ton in the fall...maybe because we don't like to go out in the winter ;) or just because there's a lot to do like pumpkin patches & farmer's markets!
