Trolls: The Beat Goes On – DIY Trolls Poppy Purse

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.

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.

Create your own DIY Farmhouse Inspired Coffee Jar with this simple tutorial.

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

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.

Game day in my house is not just a fun party. It’s so much more than that. It’s a time for friends and family to get together and bond over a game of football. If you know me or my family in real life, you’d know just how big a deal game day is. And it’s not just about the food and fun. It’s so much more than that. When we host our game day parties, I tend to go a bit overboard. Football shaped food, decorations in our team’s colors and even cute, matching shirts for my daughter and I. While the guys like to stick with their favorite teams, the two of us are taking it to the next level with a little bit of sparkle and shine with these DIY Mommy & Me Game Day Shirts. I washed our shirts with Persil® ProClean® laundry detergent from Walmart! [Read more…] about DIY Mommy & Me Game Day Shirts with Persil® ProClean® Laundry Detergent from Walmart®

Homemade Lavender Body Soap + Finding Better Feminine Care Options

Since becoming a mom, I’ve taken a new approach to the things we all use on and in our bodies. From eating mostly organic foods to more free & clear detergents on our clothes and dishes to even making homemade body soaps and scrubs and things like that. I’ve become more aware of how things are made and the ingredients that are used in some products. That’s one of the reasons I love making my own body soaps. One of my favorites, especially in the colder months, is this homemade lavender oatmeal body soap. It leaves my skin so soft and silky and it smells amazing.

From the minute we first introduced my son to Star Wars he’s been obsessed. For the last ten years or so it’s been one of his favorite movies. He’s had everything from Star Wars themed birthdays to countless movie nights. He even has his own Star Wars themed Christmas tree in his Star Wars room. It’s safe to say he’s a pretty big fan. So it’s no surprise he (actually all of us) can’t wait for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story© TM Lucasfilm LTD to release this December. We’re literally counting down the days.
