I go through cotton swabs like a a mole in a carrot patch. I use them daily for everything from getting the excess mascara off my lids to cleaning the corners of the bathroom vanity. There are endless ways these little cotton-y inventions can be used. As such, they need to be handy and accessible … Continue reading diy bathroom containers

diy garden markers
I'm not a gardener. My mom loves it. I used to joke that we could be walking down any street in any city and mom would be able to tell you the name of every plant, flower and tree.

spring decor roundup
As I was determining what to do with my mantel for spring (you can check it out here), I searched high and low for some inspiration. I didn't want it to be too pastel-ish, nor did I want it to be something that was only good through Easter. I need ideas that will last through … Continue reading spring decor roundup
