I am not that person that has a perfectly clean and tidy house all the time. I don’t think it’s in my DNA plus we truly live in every single inch of our home and life can be messy. It is what it is and I am who I am but it I’m being totally honest, I feel better when things are cleaner and more orderly. I still have delusions of finding a system that works and motivates me but every day and week are so different it’s a moving target. While I don't have it all figured out,  I...

Meet your next favorite cleaning tool! E-Cloths are specialized towels that harness the power of water to clean and disinfect. They are miraculous and you can use them over and over (most up to 300 uses) by just washing and reusing.   There are so many E Cloths but I have tested every.single.one.of.them for you.

So without further ado, here is the complete list of all we offer with a little bit about them all (along with handy links for making purchases. THANK YOU)   Bathroom...

I enjoy it and wish I did it more often but I would not say it’s one of my gifts or “superpowers.” I always create a whole lot of extra work for myself to make it all happen but with that, I have learned some tricks to make it easier for me and hopefully more special for my guests. While I make a lot of lists and do so much prep work behind the scenes, probably the best thing I do is actually quite simple: I make a snack board. Some might...

Once upon a time shopping was totally my thing. Weekends at a mall were just who I was and it brought me so much joy. I was the girl who worked at her favorite store and used the discount for more than her paycheck. But times, priorities and people change. Now my clothes are much less of a priority and my dollars have to go much further. Plus the older I get the more I want things that are full of charm and character. I might shop differently these days but I think it’s even more fun. I shared earlier...

We're back today to wrap up the list of 10 of my  favorite vintage items in my home. Be sure you don't miss 1-5 from yesterday! (Be sure you saw 1-5 too!)     6. Canisters This is another very simple way to use a vintage piece. If we’re being totally honest, I am not about to pour my flour out in here. I have my vintage limits! But these are great for storage of packaged goods or just small odds and ends you may need to store out of sight. We have fish food and water treater in there.   8. Art ...
