The season for holiday corporate events and ugly Christmas sweaters is upon us and it’s important to not arrive empty handed! It’s quite an undertaking to invite groups of people into your home! You know … getting the house cleaned and decorated, preparing hor d’oeuvres, curating and sending invite, following up on invites and keeping everyone entertained! The host or hostess would never ask for a thank you, but it’s common courtesy to bring a little something to show your appreciation for their time and effort. It could be something as small as a bottle of wine (love this faux wine bag) as a fun way to present your gift! Or as generous as a … [Read more...]

Holiday Lips
Happy Friday FRIENDS... It's finally FRIDAY! Not sure if you saw my Instagram story a few days ago? I was wearing my new Lip Sense lipstick and I can't tell you how much I LOVE it... It DOESN'T smudge! On my Instagram story I shared how I went to Starbucks purchased a coffee and after taking my first drink I didn't have any lipstick on my spout. Seriously, AMAZING! My friend Regan on Instagram + Facebook as "liplogicwithregan" is selling these amazing lipsticks. She has decided to gift ALL my followers with 20% OFF JUST through this weekend. So hurry... this is a great deal and I don't want you to miss out! Get a couple for YOU and a few as … [Read more...]
Styling Cake Stands
I'm obsessed with cake stands! I think they are perfect addition to your Thanksgiving table. I love that you don't ALWAYS have to use them with desserts on them. You can use them with pumpkins on top, flowers, candles and even appetizers. I love how a cake stand gives the table some height and dimension. I also think it's special to mix and match your styles... I love during the Holidays using hand me down dishes, plates and cake stands. I have some amazing pieces from family members who have passed away. It gives me joy to use them while we are missing those family members during the season. SHOP THIS LOOK: This … [Read more...]
The Keepsake Kitchen Diary
These prints are created from a sweet friend of mine Valerie McKeehan owner of Lily & Val. Valerie is the most wonderful chalk artist. She started doodling chalk pieces years ago and realized she had a passion for being creative and even better yet people wanted to buy her pieces. Valerie started with white chalk at first then over time added more color to her prints. In 2016 Valerie launched her very first flagship store and opened a brick + mortar in Pittsburgh. Her Keepsake Kitchen Dairy is my very first GIFT IDEA for Christmas 2017. I'm going to be sharing a lot of my favorite ideas throughout this Holiday season. One of … [Read more...]
Easy Rice Krispie Halloween Treats
Everyone loves a good Rice Krispie treat! So, I say let's spice it up for the Holidays and add chocolate and sprinkles. My pantry ALWAYS has Wilton's candy melts in every color. I'm kinda obsessed. You can buy these at your local craft store. You can make your own Rice Krispie treats but my little secret when I don't have much time... I purchase the snack box at Costco. (Heehee) I have a Wilton's Melting Pot to melt my candies but IF you don't have one, you can place a handful in a microwave safe bowl and slowly heat. Melt + Stir, Melt + Stir until completely melted. Dip your treat halfway into the melted candies. Place to set … [Read more...]

Spooky Halloween Bar Cart
I always decorate my BAR CART for every season/event. It's such a FUN way to add decor to your home. I can get a lot of products and treats on this sweet little bundle of joy. I don't only add beverages, most times I include seasonal candies and whatever my heart desires. This ceramic vampire was painted by Ellie when she was a younger and I always set it out for Halloween, this year he found his way onto my cart... He is the perfect addition. Straws are a given to be on our bar cart, I think they are easy for everyone to grab. Another favorite item on my cart is our old fashion glasses + decanter that we got for a wedding shower … [Read more...]

The Simplified Planner Is Back
Today is THE DAY! The Launch of the 2017-2018 Simplified Planner... I find a lot of joy in planning ahead. It makes me feel at peace and helps me to prepare for what’s coming up. It helps me stay on top of my responsibilities and it holds me accountable for the things I don’t enjoy (like cleaning the floors!). Four years ago I attended The Inspired Retreat where I was honored to have met Emily Ley. She was a speaker at the conference I attended and she gifted each of us a Simplified Planner. I'm completely obsessed... The colors, patterns are amazing. But, most of all the pages have plenty of space to write. Today, I'm sharing the newest … [Read more...]
