Hi! I’m Sara and welcome to Cottage on Jones! This channel is a place I share vlogs, thrifted finds, and holiday decorating. It’s family friendly and fun! Please subscribe and join us ☺️
Sara, you looked darling in your Fall dress and headband. Love the cozy blanket/throw. Thank you for sharing your Fall favorites. I love antique candle company candles. Have a great week. 🤎🧡💛
Love your beautiful bows!!! I’ve made bows for years but never using your method-I definitely want to try your method!!! You explain this method so well!!! I also love the awesome new chairs. I am so proud of you for putting them together all by yourself!!!!! We have wanted some Adirondack chairs made out of this type of material to use beside our pool for so long. I so wish they weren’t so expensive. Sooner or later I am sure we will get some. The pool store/builder that provides service for our pool when it needs it and also where we take our water samples and purchase our chemicals and other pool maintenance items sell these kind of chairs. They also sell tables made from this same kind of material. We love the beach so much and Adirondack chairs remind me so much of the beach-our happy place!!!!! I know you and Cody will enjoy your new chairs for many years to come-not to mention your special decorations for all the seasons!!!
I love how you have decorated your front porch. I am not good at making bows, but you made it look so easy, I will give it another try.....keep up the good work ....❤
I use Perry Ellis and Nicole Miller. They work perfect for my body. My go to candle is Yankee candles and cozyme candles which I found on RU-vid. They only come out every season and once you buy them, you can’t get them anymore😢they discontinue them. I am 74 and I still wear Farmer jeans and Henley shirts. I always joke with my grown grandchildren that I wear my farmer jeans because they’re always telling me I’m too thin. I am a product of the 60s and I still wear clothes that I loved back then including Levi’s button down jeans. You can look very stylish without looking childish😊 love your headbands they are part of you.❤❤ I do not have a Stanley cup, I have a great cup that I bought on Amazon 40 ounces I drink 80 ounces of water a day and I paid $16 for it it came with extra straws and a straw cleaner my coffee cup in the morning is a yeti. I’ve had that for years a large one I find it is the most durable coffee cup.
Girl, doesn’t matter what your age, wear the cute clothes!!! I’m 65 and I still wear my “holey” jeans. I LOVE Terri Blackstock. You might want to check out Dee Henderson’s “O’Malley” series!
I really enjoy wearing headbands. I am very blessed to have a vast headband collection that I add to every chance I get. I have headbands for every season and almost every outfit I own. I love plain and embellished headbands. I also love to watch Downton Abbey-it’s been a long time since I’ve watched it. Several years ago, my husband gave me the box set for Christmas, so I definitely need to get it out and start watching it again!!! I am so sad today to hear of the passing of Dame Maggie Smith-without her, Downton Abbey would definitely not have been the same!!! We are currently without electricity from the devastation that Hurricane Helene brought to our area. I live in central Georgia but we still experienced horrifically high winds and well over ten inches of rain. We are about 30 miles west of the section of our state that experienced the worst effects of the storm. This nearby area experienced numerous tornadoes, as well as high winds and torrential rain!!! Thank goodness we don’t have any damage on our property except for a good many fallen tree limbs and messy debris all over the yard and in our pool. We have been told to expect to be without power for several more days. We lost power at 4:00 a.m. Friday morning. Thankfully, we have a 41-foot motorhome equipped with a generator, so we have been able to connect our two refrigerators to this generator to save our food; and we have also.been able to charge our phones and other devices and also connect a few lamps to drop cords coming from the generator to the refrigerator in the house. We have another fridge in my husband’s workshop that has also been connected to the generator. We live in a rural area so we have a well which means with no power we can’t pump water. Thank God for our motorhome. We can use the bathroom there and may need to sleep there tomorrow night if power isn’t restored tomorrow and after then until the power is restored. My husband brought water in from the pool to two of our toilets in the house so that we wouldn’t have to walk out to the RV during the night. You know you never have to go potty until there is no bathroom available-LOL!!! The weather remained cloudy and overcast after the storm passed through on Friday keeping the temperature very mild, but if we have a full day of sunshine, which is expected tomorrow, our house will probably get very hot, so our RV will come to the rescue. We aren’t going to do any yard clean up until our power is restored. Your pumpkin chocolate chip spice muffin cookies look delicious!!! I am always looking for something different to bake, so I may just have to try this recipe. I am not a fan of flavored coffee, but I do enjoy coffee, especially from Dunkin Donuts. We are beginning to see the leaves change color here, and quite a lot of leaves fell this past week and even more are down now since the storm ripped through our area. I am enjoying your channel very much!!! 💝💝💝
Sara, once again “Fall Friday” did not disappoint ! Like you, I have found some great dresses on Amazon with good prices. It’s so much easier at my age instead of standing for long periods in department going thru rack after rack. I know buying local is encouraged,and I used to, but cannot afford to do that anymore. You are such a natural for RU-vid !! Love ya lots and God bless❣️
Hello sweet friend! Hope your day was nice!😊 I love being a part of your community! The cookies do look really yummy!😋 Oh the dress is so pretty.. and looks really nice on you! Love the colors.🤎 I bought a jean jacket that color but it wasn't stressed, so i stressed it myself! I wear it dressed up & down.. goes with anything! Totally agree..i love the smell of Baccarat Rouge but I'd never pay that price! The was A dupe for it that Dime cosmetics carried that i bought & it smells amazing, but I'm not sure if they still carry It.🤷♀️ I'm almost out so i need to ck this one out & the body spray...i love body sprays & perfumes! I was a Scentbird subscriber for around 2yrs and I've just got so many i had to stop for awhile. But I'm gonna start back up eventually, I'm pretty much out of my fav ones! Oh goodness..i love the blanket! Green is my fav color & i really love olive green! I also love that check pattern! It looks really cozy & soft. Arthur is so sweet.🐱 Well how cool you got the Stanley for free, that was super sweet! Enjoyed all your favs! And thanks for the links! Have A super blessed weekend!😊
I love my Stanley cup I have a pastel colored one . Definitely going to check out your perfumes. Thanks love your videos. Fall is my favorite time of year . Your clothes are always so pretty .❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻
I have been watching Downton Abbey ever since you mentioned it in one of your other videos. Thank you for the recommendation! I'm on season three now and I just love it!

Hey Sara! tfs all your favs! Goose creek also has clean burning candles and Sand and Paws from TJ Max are people and pet friendly! I’m all about the clean products for me and my pets too! Arthur is adorable! 🧡 I’m ready for some Fall weather here in Mississippi!
Hi Sarah Loved your Fall Favorites. There is a new book out called The Third Gilmore Girl.....all about the Mom. Getting that one for sure. Going to try your version of the cookie....the icing looks great! Hugs, Pam ❤️🌹❤️
I love making those pumpkin cookies/muffins too! I also add chocolate chips and I’ll have to try the cream cheese frosting as well. Love my Stanley too. Although my daughters take mine and use them! Lol. Another good coffee is the Starbucks toasted graham and the maple pecan. Those are delicious.
I love you, Sara! Your sunny smile and disposition truly lifts my spirits. I like Amazon clothes too. I’ve got a lot of items from them ever since Covid. I use to accessorize all the time. I have lost any self-confidence I use to have. Won’t even wear colors. I’m going to consider the Fall dress you have. I do have a jean jacket that use to fit. I’ll pull it out. I love the “mookies” recipe I got from Donna. I add pecans.😁 I’ll try your pumpkin spice cookies. The addition of your cream cheese icing will be good on the other recipe too. I’m so glad you started your channel. I look forward to your and Donna’s videos so much.❤
I don’t have a lot of self-confidence either my friend, but I do have a lot of God-confidence! Knowing He made me just how He wanted to, helps me to be myself every day! ☀️
How much you love Fall shines through in your smiles!! I enjoyed learning about your favorites, thanks for sharing. It will be over 90 degrees here today and I see a possible triple digit temperature day next week...oh my...
Prayers for Florida, Ga and all that have lost so much. Tremendous devastation! 🙏🙏🙏 Nice autumn favorites. I’ll have to try the coffee. Need to order it. Thanks for sharing. From southern Md. take care. 😊
Hey Sara! Love your Fall Fridays! I love to watch the movie - Everyone’s All American in the fall!! Have u ever seen it? It’s a fictional (I think) fb movie about LSU! Love it! Hope you guys have a great WE! ❤🍂🍁🏈❤️
Bless your hearts,you don’t want to see me killing a snake and I’ve only killed one. I had one of those doorstops,well the snake didn’t have a chance. It was in my garage sorry but no that and mice are not allowed in my home or spiders 😂. Sara you and Cody were styling. You both looked amazing. Have a great day…..🍂🧡🍂
Love your videos the muffin cookies look delicious. I’m going to have to make them fall is my favorite time of year also and I love all your fall favorites. I’m going to have to try the body spray and the perfume. Thank you for sharing.🍁🍂
Sara you definitely look beautiful in those colors and the dress looks very nice on you too. My fall favorites are always a good movie and the smells in your home. Have to be just right or fall is just not gonna come lol. I love baking in the fall season and making a big pot of soup or chili. Those are some of my favorites. Oh and always a cozy blanket I have to have my blanket. God bless you, sweet friend and have a blessed weekend.…🍂🧡🍂
Love the movie “You’ve Got Mail”. And of course love Downton Abbey. I just saw this morning that Maggie Smith has passed. I love mystery books, I’ll have to check those out. Happy Friday! We are getting high winds here today and rain. Power going off and on. Makes me anxious. 🙏😳
@@cottageonjones we were without power for a couple of days and are so very lucky. Counties in our area of Southwest Va, Unicoi co and Boone NC flooded and homes were lost and also people. We praise God for his blessings on us. 🙏🛐
I ordered that small blanket and color a couple weeks ago! I love it. Mine is on the couch but need to order one for my bed. And such a good price.. I use thieves cleaner from YL . I watch only brittbox and acorn TV shows. Such good crime shows that are family friendly! I will occasionally watch Hallmark movies on YT. You need to make a pumpkin roll! I want to make a Yule log for Christmas .
My dear Sara...you are a breath of fresh air! I started watching you when you posted your very first video & have been a follower ever since. You are a sweet soul with good Christian values which warms my heart! I also am a follower of your mother in law, Donna...love her too. I really enjoy everything about you ( and Cody)!
Good morning Sara! Enjoyed hearing about your Fall favorites especially the olive blanket! Since you mentioned the Stanley cup isn’t the best, how do you compare it to a Yeti cup? Thank you for sharing! 🍂💕
Thank you! I think Yeti keeps ice longer, but I don’t even like ice so I choose Stanley bc it’s bigger and holds 40oz. (There may be a 40oz. Yeti, I don’t know) 😁
I can't do the Bath and Body Works candles. Thet give me a headache. Thanks for posting the candles you use. Very helpful. Do research on the Stanley cups. There are claims they contain lead in the process of making them. If you are trying to be clean, this may affect you.
Hi Sara! I love Fall too. I look forward to everything being flavored with pumpkin spice. I have a coffee creamer with the pumpkin spice flavor and the deli where I shop has these pumpkin sandwich cream cookies that are SO delicious. As for scents I haven't worn perfume in years. I use a body spray called Body Fantasies in a lavender scent. But of course I love pumpkin spice or cinnamon candles. We've got wind and rain here in Georgia (a little bit of Helene coming through). Hope y'all stay safe ❤.
We haven’t gotten anything from the storm other than some cool weather. I’m thankful but hurt so bad for those who are suffering from the storm. We know that feeling all too well 🤍
Good morning sweet Sara enjoyed your video. Love your Fall favorites. I want to make those cookies look delish. One of my Fall favs is chilli for sure. Anything apple, pumpkin love it all. Apple crisp especially. Our festival starts here next month, anything pumpkin you can imagine is sold there. It’s called the pumpkin show, greatest free show on earth, it’s big, for. Y small town of 14,000. I love the movie you’ve got mail, I own it. My mom loves Downton Abby, and I’ve been wanting to watch Gilmore girls. Take care.
