Create an Indoor Oasis
Lately I have been really into gardening. I find it relaxes me and I love seeing my little garden bloom! And now I’ve moved onto bringing more houseplants into our new place. I love having plants in each room and I’ll share with you some pictures of our new plant additions. I almost feel like we need to start giving them names like Earl, our Staghorn Fern which I picked up at an estate sale over 15 years ago. They estimated that “he” was already 40 years old. Being so old, you can see why I thought he deserved a name. I went on a hunt to find some easy-to-care-for houseplants…

9 Holiday Porch Ideas You’ll Want to Copy!
This year I started decorating the house really early for the holidays. I could’t resist all the cuteness I was seeing at our local Marshall’s and picked up some items for the house. It was time to switch up the holiday knick knacks as some are long past being called cute or even useful. You know how it is, lights that don’t work anymore but didn’t make it in the trash last year, or broken bulbs, or holiday plush that I didn’t care for anymore. The house looks cute (I’ll do a home tour soon) but that doesn’t leave much in my budget for the front porch. I went in search…

Peter Pan and The Lost Boys Party Ideas and Tips!
I love planning parties. It’ s my passion in life! When my friend hired me to create her sons lost boys themed first birthday party I was so excited to get started! I love seeing people’s vision for their party come to life in a unique and affordable way. The first thing I always do when planning a party is figure out the theme and color palette. For this lost boys birthday party we went with neutral colors also incorporating green for Peter Pan and the lost boys. I always focus on my main centerpiece first which is usually the dessert and candy table. I figure out what’s…

Dwell :: Decorating with Flowers
Last month I picked up Holly Becker and Leslie Shewring’s book “Decorate with Flowers” at our local Marshalls. You all know how much I love that place right?! I find the best finds – from dresses to home goods and this book has inspired me in so many ways! I just love having flowers around the house and it just doesn’t look finished unless I have at least one display of flowers on either the kitchen table or counter-top. But don’t worry, these ideas they offer don’t need to cost you an arm and a leg! You can find inexpensive flowers at your grocery story, wholesale florist (I…

Gorgeous DIY Succulent Pumpkin Planters
I honestly love pumpkin season, the smells and the flavors. This cute pumpkin succulent arrangement immediately turns your house into fall season. It also makes a great gift. As soon as the pumpkin starts to rot, simply plant it in your garden. If you need to pot it, just gently pull of the succulents and plant them in your favorite pot. I like to have a selection of different succulents. Definitely look for the little baby flower like succulents but also look for longer ‘flatter’ plants. Spread them out and sort them so you can clearly see what you have. I use moss…
