I never quite know whether to feature waterfall nail art as arthritis-friendly. It is super simple, easy and forgiving…But, it can strain my wrists. The last time I did this my wrist felt like it was on fire (and I was not in flare). I felt a bit better while doing today’s look but I still found difficulty in manipulating the brush. Hmmm…I guess not all easy techniques are quote unquote RA-friendly!

I do have to apologize about my links lately. I am on a huge no-buy right now and paring down my nail polish collection. I feel way less claustrophobic but this process leaves me with utterly discontinued polishes. I’m sure you are all very resourceful and have or can find shades similar to the ones I use!

I hope you like today’s nails. I fished out one of my favorite polishes ever (it is liquid gold for me — do you remember Sephora by OPI???). I rarely use SOPI polishes because I don’t want to run out of them even though I am leaning dangerously close to too-gunky-to-save formulas. That’s okay, I can just put them on a shelf and stare at them, right?

It’s fall and I’m welcoming it with open arms and wallets. The leaves change colors and the temperatures cool which means one thing: my arthritis flares up. I am going to spend a whole lot of time in the house staring at my home decoration. It better reflect the beautiful weather outside!

I already placed a huge order from Pier 1 Imports which, if you are not familiar, has some cute but pricey seasonal items. But, it’s not enough. I want to decorate the entire house because I won’t be spending it all in bed, in my room (that’s what winter is for, right??).

If I want to go overboard and adorn mi casa I have to do so without breaking the bank. Cue Target. I never give Target the fair chance I should because there is no convenient physical store near me and I love shopping in store for seasonal decoration (it puts me even more in the mood). Yesterday, I perused the website and I actually came across a few items I loved. Do these items speak to you too? Good, because they’re not that expensive and are quick simple ways to update your home.

throws Blankets, throws, table runners and linens are the quickest and easiest way to inject fall palettes into your home! My personal favorites: plaid everything, the sequined leaf runner and matching napkins!

1. Threshold™ Oversize Plaid Throw – Grey

2. Plaid Design Throw

3. Metallic Table Runner

4. Striped Table Runner

5. Leaf Runner, Napkins

6. Colorblock Pillow, ‘Gather’ Pillow

accents Accent pieces are also a great way to get into the autumnal spirit. They’re simple, small and noncommittal. And, best of all, they’re easy to move around depending on my mood! My personal favorites: fall just isn’t fall without tiny pumpkins!
