Mission Get Organized!

As the New Year rolled around, I thought a lot on making New Year's Resolutions. I typically don't make very many, if any. If I do, I usually start them before the beginning of the year so I have a better chance of following through. This year, I decided I would try to come up with some practical ways of organizing without having to go out and buy much, if anything. Here is one of my first projects, decluttering my makeup.

Here was a brilliant idea I found on Pinterest (where else?)

Using some old icecream sundae bowls and a dollar store wine glass (things I already had),
I was able to "re-create" the idea.
Here is my version:



Now, all I have to do is keep it that way. :)

All Things Pink & Red

Valentines Day is just a month away and I can hardly wait! I love all the girly lace and pretty colors associated with the day and thanks to Pinterest I am getting inspired to do a little decorating. Here are some of my ideas I'm thinking of trying:


heart garland for Valentine's Day
Heart Garland

Lighted doiley garland
Lighted Doily Garland


Vintage Paper Chandelier

Rose Wreath

Now all that's left is to actually make these fun decorations.
We'll see how that goes...

A New Addition On the Way

Okay okay, so I don't have a little one on the way but I had to get you here somehow.

After careful consideration, I've decided to add yet another topic to my blog.

Fitness.

Fitness is something I am passionate about and that's what this blog is all about. Writing about what I love. It's what I do.

So, bear with me as I attempt this new baby. Feel free to suggest things as I go along. Or not, it's up to you :)
