Easy DIY for the Fourth of July!

2020 Top Gift Ideas

November 18, 2020

This year has been such an awkward year. I had to really dive deep and research my gifts this year. Because this year has taught me the need to simplify our home.We don't need a bunch of "junky" items that will be used a few times and then tossed to the wayside.Invest in items that we want and know that we will use going forward These three items are a little pricey, but I know that they are absolutely worth the investment. Plus, these three have flex pay options, so if you do not want to pay all at once, you can choose to have it broken down into 4-5 easy payments! First up in this Nespresso coffee system! Right now it is being offered as a DOORBUSTER at almost $100 off of ... read more

Top 5 Winter Skincare Products

November 17, 2020

This blog post has been a long time coming. It's something that I have become passionate about over the last several years. I feel like I need to give some back story for this post, though. When I was in my teens, I had terrible acne. I ended up doing three rounds of Accutane over several years and while it did its job and cleared up my skin, it gave me the worst joint pain. I remember being in tears because I wanted to dance but my body hurt. Fast forward to 32, I had just delivered my last baby and noticed a few zits popping up that were out of the ordinary. I selected an organic skincare line to try and it was like kryptonite on my face. I developed a full blown case of cystic ... read more

Powder Bath Remodel

October 26, 2020

I am so excited to share this reveal with you! I stumbled across the inspo photo on Pinterest around the same time that we were finishing up our massive paint project earlier this summer. Our powder bath had just been OK, the previous owners replaced the builder pedestal with a tiny sink/cabinet that couldn't even hold the smallest bottle of liquid soap. It was time for it to get the boot! As much as I fell in love with this inspiration photo, I could never locate it's origins. I wanted all the links, but I just couldn't find them. As much as I would sleuth around for links, it was impossible! But, the challenge was on! First off, I knew that I wanted a reclaimed cypress counter ... read more

DIY Butterfly Cloche

September 30, 2020

When I first saw the OG cloche on Pinterest, I knew I had to have it. Heck, I was willing to pay the price to have it to add to my Halloween decor. For those who have been reading my blog from the beginning, you know that butterflies have been my thing ever since losing my mom a little over 2 years ago. Well, as luck would have it, the cloche was sold out. I then came across a DIY article and thought it was a sign from my mama, it was time to DIY this thing at a fraction of the cost and pull out that old bottle of "liquid gold" and honor my mama and some of her favorite craft supply products! Now, here is where I took that idea and put my own spin on it. I took these butterflies (I ... read more

It’s NSALE time!!!

August 11, 2020

It's that time of year, y'all! The Nordstrom sale is one that I look forward to all year! Now while I could go absolutely crazy with all of the great deals, I've learned the best way to shop the sale is to go in with a wish list and a budget! It's so easy to get carried away! First we are going to start with my absolute must have yearly staples! These pajamas are EVERYTHING! Seriously, stock up! I've tried the copycats and they just pill. These last and will always be my go-to PJs! My next staple is a comfy blanket! I am a total blanket person and I will splurge for amazing blankets! I'm so excited to incorporate these into my decor this year! My favorite dry shampoo and texturizing ... read more

Selecting the Perfect Paint Colors

August 10, 2020

Out of all of the rooms that I have painted in my lifetime, never did I realize how complex this process can be! When we moved into our home 4 years ago, we knew that it needed some TLC. Even though the previous owners had an interior designer help them with the décor of the home, there were just some tastes that were not for us. I mean, HELLO aqua venetian plaster in the master bath!!! It took two years of being nauseated every time I walked into my bathroom before I took a gallon of Kilz and a paintbrush to those walls! It was so taste specific and gross that I had no problems covering up a job that I know cost thousands to apply! This is where our dilemma started. The pretty white that ... read more

Mama Burnout and Rona

July 9, 2020

Hey, Mama! How are you doing over there? If you’re like me, you are trying to juggle kids being homebound for 4.5 months and counting. We got through distance learning, and we all hoped that we would resume some sort of normalcy by now. Boy, are we surprised that it seems like we are in the long haul for this rona crap.  Yes, I know COVID-19 is real and very serious, but I still refer to Rona as a b*tch. She is, I’m still bitter that she’s here, and I’m sorry.  My kids are tired of me entertaining them, they are tired of not seeing their friends, outings have a 10 minute mask limit before someone loses their sh*t, and well we are a house full of crabby pantry-raiding boys over here.  ... read more

Traffic Secrets: What I learned with this 30 day program!

June 24, 2020

This post is brought to you by our sponsor, “Traffic Secrets: The Underground Playbook for Filling Your Websites and Funnels with Your Dream Customers”. The opinions expressed below are my own. So, 30 days ago, I started a journey.  A journey that I hoped that would help me achieve one of my goals, and that was to increase my traffic to my blog and other social channels.  Honestly, I was nervous to get started.  I mean, what if I failed and this didn’t work for me? Then a friend visited the day that I received this book, and he picked it up and said “Oh, I need to read this one. I love Russell Brunson! I’ve been a huge follower of his since I knew that I wanted to own my own businesses! ... read more

Always Eat After 7 (Results)

June 18, 2020

This post is brought to you by our sponsor, “Always Eat After 7 PM”. The opinions expressed below are my own. Alright y’all! It has been a month since Josh and I started our new lifestyle change and we are both loving our results and cannot wait to continue this new lifestyle change! (to follow along with our journey click here, here and here)  Joel Marion really hit the nail on the head with this program.  It has been something that we have both been able to stick to and plan to make this a lifestyle change! We are feeling better and sleeping better.  We don’t feel deprived of carbs or sweets and crave healthy fats.  We no longer have to force ourselves to eat breakfast ... read more
