Mother’s day is next Sunday, can you believe it? I always feel like Mother’s day creeps up so fast and I am completely unprepared for what to get my Mom on her special day. In the past I have gone the DIY route, the potted plant/gardening/flower theme, the scented candle (until me and my sisters discovered that my mom hates candles?!). This year my Mom flat-out told us what she wants for mother’s day but I am not going to let her ruin my creativity so I have compiled […] Continue reading →

I cannot believe how quickly April flew by! Between Easter, Yoga Training, and my Birthday the month seemed to start and end in the blink of an eye. Since today in May 1st I have decided to start a new series of posts on the first of every month that look back over the previous month and highlight ten of my favorite posts. This way if any of you were super busy, went on vacation, or are just really behind on your blog reading you can get a cliff notes version of the last month in one post. […] Continue reading →

What you will need: Four short sticks of wood about six inches long Shells of your choice, they can be small or large depending on the look you are going for String or even twine could work, you want the string to be sturdy […] Continue reading →

I am sure you have figured out by now how much I love the beach, so it should come as no surprise when I tell you that my interior design style, specifically in bedrooms, is very beachy. While beachy bedrooms are very popular I actually think that it can be pretty difficult to really get the room done right so that it exudes from every corner the feeling of summer, sun, cool breezes, and calming waves. Since I recently re-did my bedroom to fit this very theme I thought I would share with […] Continue reading →

Trying to put together a large photo wall can feel like a very daunting task. When faced with a large empty open wall it can be really difficult to visualize exactly what you want to go where. How many frames you are going to use, what pictures to choose, how much space to leave in between them. Are you going to use all the same kind of frame or go with different shapes, sizes, and depths. These are all things that you need to take into consideration when taking on the task of putting […] Continue reading →
