One of our favorite shows is “Trolls: The Beat Goes On” on Netflix. My  little one loves Poppy so I was inspired to create her this DIY Trolls Poppy Purse she can wear to remind her of her favorite character.

DIY Trolls Poppy Purse

We’ve definitely got some Trolls fever in this house. Right now we’re all about the DreamWorksTV animated series “Trolls: The Beat Goes On” on Netflix. The kids loved the movie so naturally the animated series is a favorite. My daughter just loves Poppy! Who could blame her? With that wild pink hair, what’s not to love?! I bought her a Trolls shirt the other day and she was so excited. Being the girly girl that she is, she asked for a purse to match. Have you tried looking for a Trolls Poppy Purse? I have and there’s not much out there, so I did the next best thing! I decided to make her one and this DIY Trolls Poppy Purse was created.

DIY Farmhouse Inspired Coffee Jar

Fall is my favorite time of year. It also seems to be my busiest time of year. Between the kids going back to school, busy season for my work and so many things I want to and see, it’s such a busy time. Every year before the kids start school and my schedule kicks into overdrive, I sit down and use this time – the calm before the storm almost – as a time to reflect on what’s worked in our routines and schedules and make any necessary changes. One thing that works best for me is setting time aside for me each morning. Before the day starts, before the kids wake up and before I need to prepare for what the day throws at me. Just a few quiet moments with me and my cup of coffee. I even revamped my kitchen counters to include a little at home coffee bar.  A spot for my coffee maker, my favorite mugs and my newest addition, this DIY  Farmhouse Inspired Coffee Jar.  [Read more…] about DIY Farmhouse Inspired Coffee Jar

DIY Winnie the Pooh Hunny Pot Purse

The moment I opened my email and saw the invite from Disney inviting me to the Christopher Robin red carpet premiere, ideas started churning in my head. What was I going to wear? What DIY projects can I whip up? What recipes can I make to keep the excitement and fun going. I immediately knew I wanted a yellow dress and I needed a purse that was not only small but cute. I couldn’t find any Winnie the Pooh themed purses for sale that I liked when it dawned on me, why not make a Winnie the Pooh hunny pot purse. I was already making a hunny pot dress for my daughter to wear when I take her to see the movie so why not just make my purse. So that’s exactly what I did.

DIY Cat Food Storage Container

For the last few years, we’ve talked about getting a cat but the time never felt right. I had a cat that I adopted as a kitten when I was in the first grade. I loved growing up with Mittens. She was my best friend and the best furry friend I could ask for. She lived twenty one years and passed away when I was pregnant with my oldest. When he was younger, his allergies were out of control and we honestly didn’t think we could even get a cat with how bad they were. Fast forward, to when my daughter was born. She’s loved cats since she could understand what they are. I even joked that I thought she was part cat with some of her mannerisms. Now that she’s 3, all she talked about was getting a cat. Any chance she could get. About three weeks ago we stopped in our local adoption center and brought home our newest additions – Pudgie and Bentley – two Scottish Fold cats. Being a pet owner is a whole new world and I knew I need something to store their dry food in so I created this adorable cat food storage container for them.  [Read more…] about DIY Cat Food Storage Container

  • Do you have a favorite resort at Walt Disney World? We’ve stayed at so many it’s tough for me to pick a favorite. Last November we stayed at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge and loved it! The kids loved watching the animals, especially the giraffes 🦒. Our room faced the Savannah and it anytime we were in the room, they raced out there to try and spot the animals. It was such a stunning resort and I cannot wait to stay there again. In a few weeks we’re headed back to our favorite place. To check out all the #WDWFall fun! So stay tuned! 😉 • • • • • • #disney #wdw #disneyhotels #animalkingdomlodge #akl #disneymom #disneyfamilia #disneysmc #disneylife #disneyworld #disneyphotography #disneyig #disneyfamily #disneylifestyle #igdisney

  • #ad Ok ladies, let’s talk periods. Most women hate their period, but for some, heavy periods can impact their health and wellbeing. In a recent survey, 3 in 5 women reported at least one symptom of heavy periods, but more than half of those women (57%) never discussed it with their doctor. It’s time to break the silence. Heavy periods keep women from living their life to the fullest, but there are treatment options that can help. Don’t wait to start the conversation with your doctor.
