Last week, I shared which projects here on Mom Home Guide were most popular with readers in 2018.

Friday Five – Fall Fun in New Jersey
This post contains affiliate links. Today I’m sharing my “Friday Five” post, when I share 5 things that I’ve been up to lately. Today was kind of a low key week for me, but I was able to squeeze in some fun moments! Sunflowers A farm near my house - Holland Ridge Farms - features a sunflower festival in the fall.

Decorating a Living Room Bay Window
I received the pillows described in this post for free in exchange for my honest review. A few years ago my husband and I had a bay window installed in our living room. For a while, I was unsure as to how to dress up the window. I have been meaning to make a custom window seat cushion for the space, but haven't gotten around to it yet! In the meantime, I've found a much easier (and quicker) way to dress up a bay window. At first, I only had a simple cushion that I had sewed on the window seat. At the time, the cushion matched the color scheme of the curtains that I had in the Continue reading...
