Happy Birthday, Cheese God & Link Up On the Edge #295
We celebrated Archie’s 11th birthday this past weekend, a week late due to some scheduling conflicts. My children’s birthday cakes have become a thing of jokes and humor ever since Ralph’s coronavirus cake back in March of 2020. I have never been one to throw big elaborate birthday parties for my children. I have kept it simple with pizza and cake at my house since the beginning. But I have always indulged their silly cake whims and therefore I splurge on the cake from our favorite local baker who shall remain unnamed and untagged in this post upon her request. We both recognize that Archie’s “Cheese God” cake may be…

My Favorite Loungewear with the Apron That Keeps It Clean & Link Up On the Edge #294
I have been wanting to share my favorite tie dye loungewear and this vibrant linen apron for a few months but I have just been so busy recently that these photos sort of ended up being forgotten. But then I remembered them! And since I am still lounging in these same tie dye leggings, tee shirt hoodie, and cardigan and I am still cooking in my vibrant linen teal apron, I might as well get sharing now. First let me tell you about my new linen apron. Do you remember my hemp and cotton sheet set from Atlinia that I shared back in December? Well, those sheets are still as…

How to Find and Save More Space
Do you ever feel like you just don’t have enough space? Space to breathe, space to move, space to be free from all the things that clutter your days. We all crave more space and when we found ourselves locked in our homes in the early days of the pandemic, some of us may have craved even more space. While social distancing is about maintaining space between yourself and other people, we also have a need for distance from all of the objects around us. And we can only have that kind of space by decluttering and removing the unnecessary objects to create more space. One strategic approach to gaining…

My Happie Hippie Hallway & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #258
My Happie Hippie Hallway makes me smile so bright every time I walk through the second story of my home. Ever since I finished painting the hallway in the fall, I have been on the lookout for bohemian style decor to bring more character to the space. I knew I wanted dreamcatchers to be part of the decor. The hallway space extends from our bedroom to the boys’ bedrooms, making it the perfect spot for catching all the dreams from all the bedrooms. I was not in a hurry to decorate this space though. Two weeks ago, I was still in the brainstorming phase when I was in TJ Maxx…

Environmentally Friendly Laundry Products for Baby
Of all the things that we are responsible for looking after in life, our children are our main priority. We want all the best things for our babies from the moment they come into our lives. But giving all the best to our children does not mean that we should disregard other responsibilities like protecting our environment and our planet for the future generations. There are so many things to consider when trying to live a more environmentally sustainable lifestyle. It is important to choose products that don’t contribute more damage to the environment. But it is equally important to choose products that are gentle on your baby’s skin as…

Many people enjoy remodeling the rooms in their homes for a variety of different reasons.

Many women with a great sense of fashion also translate that style into their home decor. We not only express ourselves through how we dress, but the way we maintain and decorate our homes also speaks volumes about our personalities. If you have been considering a…

ATLINIA: Breath of Nature While You Sleep & Link Up On the Edge #275
You might already know how I have been struggling with sleep during these premenopausal years. I am either too hot, too cold, too uncomfortable, too anxious, or in some other way too hormonally imbalanced for proper sleep. So I am always looking for ways to update my sleep environment to be more conducive to a good long healthy night’s sleep. This past summer, I upgraded my comforter to a bamboo one which has really helped to improve my body temperature issues at night. Natural fiber bedding really does have some wonderful sleep and health benefits especially for those of us who struggle with menopause symptoms that effect our sleep. I…

Bring Joy to Your Walls with Poster Store
I am back with my second collaboration with Poster Store, my new go-to place for ethically sourced and produced sustainable prints that are bringing joy to my walls this holiday season. We have been making slow progress on the full home makeover that I committed to last winter, but progress is progress regardless of how slow I move. However, it is fortunate that I have been approaching this simple decor update with a sloth-like vigor because it is giving me plenty of time and opportunities to hand pick posters that will inject the most joy possible into my home decor. When I chose my first gallery wall from Poster Store,…

My Road to Cozy Earth & Link Up On the Edge #258
Have you heard of Cozy Earth yet? I have been seeing commercials and ads everywhere touting the benefits of these premium bamboo products that assist with creating a healthy and comfortable sleep environment with their temperature regulating bed linens and their super soft loungewear. My road to discovering the wonderful benefits of this brand is a rather serendipitous one and I would like to share it with you. Back in the late winter and early spring months, I started seeing lots of blogger friends sharing posts about Cozy Earth loungewear. We were all still in stay at home mode and cute, comfortable, quality loungewear was the best thing to hit…
