This Bloody Mary Bar To-Go is the perfect carry along to take to your next party, picnic or even tailgate! Thank you to Master of Mixes for sponsoring this post. T minus 2 weeks until the start of the college football season! In case you ever need an updated countdown, we have a chalkboard sign counting down the days until the first Buckeye game. Nothing says fall like football and tailgating. And no tailgate is complete without a delicious Bloody Mary. A Bloody Mary bar and football are like baseball and Cracker Jacks... they are just perfect together. So you're probably thinking, how the heck do you transport a Bloody Mary bar to a tailgate? I struggled with that very Continue Reading
Mixed Media Travel Bullet Journal
My Mixed Media Travel Bullet Journal is sponsored by DecoArt, Inc. All ideas and opinions are mine alone. One of the things I was most excited about working with DecoArt is that I would be forced (in a good way!) to stretch beyond my comfort zone in working with products and mediums that are new to me. Each month we are given an assignment that usually consists of a theme and a product category. This month's challenge was bullet journals and DecoArt Media products. I have always loved the idea of mixed media (I love texture variation in art and life!) but this was my first time experimenting with it. I decided to make a mixed media travel bullet journal because Ryan and I have Continue Reading
5 Steps in the Process of Turning House into Home
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of CORT. All opinions are 100% mine. I've truly realized over the last 3 years that turning house into home doesn't happen overnight. It's a process that requires patience, but is so worth the wait when you can sit and enjoy the home that you thoughtfully created, one step at a time. If anyone would have told me that there would be a time that I would plan a wedding, buy a house and remodel said house simultaneously, I would have laughed and called them out for the being the crazy person they obviously are. Well I guess I became the crazy person because about 3 ½ years ago I did just that. Simultaneously. Yep. Crazy. The good Continue Reading
Unicorn Fizzy Bath Salts with Printable Label
Treat yourself or a friend with these DIY fizzy bath salts! The printable label makes this a perfect gift idea. The idea for my fizzy unicorn bath salts was born from my love of DIY beauty products and the unicorn theme from the SNAP conference I attended in April. I think unicorns have replaced the "rainbows and butterflies" description of utopia... who can resist some bright colors and a cute horse with horns?! It almost dares you to try to be in a bad mood. I'll take your bad mood and raise you one unicorn! Unicorns in and of themselves invite happy but when paired with these fizzy bath salts it's all out bliss! They smell amazing, create a delightful frothy bath experience and Continue Reading
10 of the Smartest Ideas at IKEA
I had the opportunity to preview the new IKEA Columbus location that will be opening on June 7th. I was giddy with excitement that Columbus is finally getting an IKEA but so sad that I couldn't shop yet! There are a ton of huge giveaways planned for the opening so if you're thinking of braving the crowds you can checkout all of the opening merriment here. Although I've been to IKEA in other cities, the stores are so big that every time I have gone I see new things and getting an actual tour this time I learned so much about the innovation of some of their products! While there's a lot of stuff that I'm excited to get my hands on, these are some of the biggest ooooh's that I had about Continue Reading
