Thinking Outside the Box with a Mother’s Day DIY Party
Image courtesy of Catch My Party While no one is mistaking Mother’s Day for other holidays around this time such as St. Patrick’s or Easter, it really should be a more special day than it is. I’m not sure about anyone else, but I take all that my mom has done for me for granted. While we may tell our mother that we love her and appreciate everything she’s done for us (including giving us the chance to live!) To show your mother that you truly care, why not throw her and her friends a DIY party especially for her?! Marvelous Mommies An easy way to…

Garden :: 10 Unique Container Gardening Ideas
Yesterday my daughter and I visited our local nursery and I was inspired to work on my back patio this spring. We don’t have a large area so the following are great ideas for small spaces. It is probably a good thing since I don’t have a ton of extra time like most moms – but I do get a lot of pleasure working in the garden and love to see when it is all cleaned up and looking good! Now if I can just get my (almost) one year old 110+ puppy to not eat the new flowers we planted! Fabric Covered Planters = Divine! Hands down…

Image courtesy of Pinterest Tis the season for spring cleaning! Spring officially begins March 20th so let’s start decluttering and redecorating now. At least that was my thought process this past weekend as I am ready for the house to get into shape. I wanted to start with our laundry room because I am in there so much. Not sure how we end up with Mount Laundry every week with just four of us (my mother is staying with us at the moment) but we do go through so much laundry.

What’s Hot in Southern California :: Organic Designs by Aggelige
There is just something so wonderful about succulents. I love how they fit in almost any type of décor style you might have. A few weeks ago we ran into Aggelige Spanos, the owner of Organic Designs by Aggelige and is just about the cutest shop around located at The Camp in Costa Mesa. Her shop is set up in an old school mobile home filled with an array of succulents. She offers a huge selection of plants that make the perfect gift! We chose this gorgeous terrarium that has a crystal, feathers and rocks that she collects from her nature walks. And for Valentine’s Day – think about giving a live…
