CUTE! I love it, Camille. “Autumn Leaves” just so happens to be one of my mother’s favorite songs. It’s so holiday-y and classic.
@Tolly, I used to play Autumn Leaves on the piano when I was little, and it brings back so many great nostalgic memories every time I hear it!!
Love this. Glen Hansard is just great and you can never go wrong with Simon and Garfunkel. Fun.
Thank you for the Thanksgiving tunes, Camille! Just saw the News 8 Austin footage, and I have so many new creative ideas to celebrate the holiday with, thanks to you. This thanksgiving i’m thanking for your blog, it’s a great escape for me and I look forward to every day’s new inspiration.
So fun, Camille! I love all the Thanksgiving place-settings too…
This is a great list! (and photo) I’m sharing it on Thanksgiving planning this week! Keep up the wonderfully photographed and inspiring work.
