*This post was sponsored by Finally bulbs. All opinions are my own* When it comes to lighting it’s something I always need– I wish I could have a lighting crew follow me around to capture a luminous glowy tan all day, but that’s impossible! The only thing I can control is the lighting in my house and that needs to be perfect. When we first moved to our place I…
**This is a sponsored post. All opinions and decorations/layout are my own** When we found out Dory was coming out with her own movie as a sequel to Finding Nemo, we were super excited! Dory is my all time favorite, not just because Ellen Degenerous plays the part, but because I really relate to her; quirky, caring and loving. We saw the movie– it was amazing! And then Party City…
When we first moved into our apartment, a one bedroom, I refused to dress it up in curtains, shelves, frames, flowers and all the goodness that comes form the home decor department because we were not going to stay there long. Well, four years later we were till there and hated being home. So when we moved into the two-bedroom back in August of last year, I said we were…
Continuing on with new Target collections– this week it’s all about Marimekko, a Finnish company who has been around since the 50’s has finally bought their unique designs and bold colors to Target. Their designs are distinctive and if you think you’d get something like theirs, you’re wrong. Marimekko designed exclusively 200 pieces catering to women, kids, home and outdoor decor, with pricing retailing from $19.99 to $100. Take a…
Yes, it’s another Target home collection I’m going to put you guys on! Last week was the lovely collection of Oh Joy! and today it’s all about the “Pillowfort” event I went to a couple weeks back. I was invited to view Target’s new children’s home collection,Pillowfort and wanted to share my opinion on it. First off, most importantly, it’s a children’s home collection line which is non-gender based, there’s…
By now I’m sure you’re aware of my family’s attachment to Target, actually I think everyone in America has this attachment, but that’s a study I have no time to do. My favorite department is the home decor section of Target, how could it not be? From storage, throw pillows, home accents, rugs, wall decor… there’s just too much to not love. I get taken in by all the inspiration…
**Oriental Trading provided me with the products for review. All opinions are my own and I was not compensated for the products** Finally my baby shower has come and gone! After thinking of how to plan/decorate it, stressful weeks, and a snow storm that made me cancel the original day I can finally sit back, relax and enjoy the video and photos from that day. Having a boy I knew…
I’m all for Christmas traditions, it’s one of my favorite parts about Christmas; theme of the tree, cutting down our own tree, elf on the shelf, and how to decorate our place this year. Last year was our first time cutting down our own tree and we had such a great experience we decided it would be a tradition. Last year we visited Santa’s Christmas Tree Farm (you could check…
You’re expecting! What a joyous occasion, you’re soon going to have a mini-me, they’re going to be so cute, they’re lives will already be laid out for them, and you get to buy all the cute things for them to grow into. Once of my favorite parts were buying all the essentials for the baby like the crib, one that they’ll grow into and will be in there lives for…
After reading many of my other blog posts, watching our YouTube videos and checking out some of my tweets you may know that I’ve become so in love with Christmas! My family is very much into the holiday season as one should be especially when you have a child; decorating, baking, making ornaments, buying gifts and spending time with out-of-town family members and even the same old family members! It’s…
As you know this past weekend was Baby Z’s birthday and party! I finally found the energy to edit all 316 photos and can post them up now. The past few weeks I kept getting stressed out due to the weather– it said would rain, then it wouldn’t, it would be scattered or 20% chance of rain. The forecast was all over the place! Stressed out, that’s all I could…
