inTRODUCING the harper fall Collection
This collection includes nine individual, custom-designed desktop backgrounds, plus five coordinating mobile wallpapers (each sold separately). Perfect to put you in a positive and inspired space for the cozy months of fall.
With cooler days, pumpkin-flavored “everything”, and less hours of daylight, there seems to be a longing for relaxing talks by the fire or warm blankets to cuddle up in. Take this opportunity to put yourself and your goals at the top of your priority list. When you do this, other things will fall in place the way they should. Whether you’re taking a break from your work to walk through a pile of leaves (because, why not?), or enjoying a warm espresso in a cozy cafe, find a peaceful place to create or do what you love.
Most of all, breathe and be. Be exactly who you are!
I remember creating handmade vision boards on poster board when I was younger. (Did you do this too?) Every year I would get excited to buy my supplies, and gather all the magazines I would use to cut pictures out of.
Once mobile phones came around, I’d take pictures of my finished boards. This way, I could look at them first thing in the morning, and then right before bed.
In addition to using these pictures as desktop backgrounds, you can also use them for your computer ‘lock-screen’ slideshow (recommended!). I am a fan of using the lock-screen option on my computer. I also use several coordinating wallpapers on my phone. I started creating these years ago when I worked in a downtown office. It was one way to make me feel better at my desk all day (and it worked!).
Today, I still create custom-designed, coordinating seasonal backgrounds and wallpapers for myself, but more importantly now, for you! Regardless of where I am or what I’m working on – these backgrounds, some with inspiring or funny quotes, put me in a better mood and make me feel better. It’s a simple thing, but it works.
Tip: Save the desktop background slide(s) in one folder on your computer and then select this folder when you set up the backgrounds on your computer (under display settings). If you’re not sure how to set this up, click here for our quick tutorial. Or you can search YouTube for tutorials on setting up your desktop background slideshow and the lock-screen slideshow. Contact us if you have additional questions, we are happy to help.
