I love crafts. Michael’s and Hobby Lobby are my homes away from home. I love to create. What I can’t stand? Complete and utter chaos and disorganization.

Ikea Malm Dresser Hack (Makeover)
This is kind of embarrassing to tell you the truth. I’ve been talking about updating my bedroom since July, in this post.

DIY Prayer Chalkboard
In this season of Thanksgiving, I’ve spent some time reflecting on the past year, and the degree to which I am blessed has struck me.

How To Organize Your Fridge (Or At Least How I Organize Mine!)
I promised a few weeks ago in this post to write a post on how I organize my fridge.

I’ve never really planted anything. But, now that I’m in my own apartment, I feel like I should see if I can make things grow or if there’s a reason why planting in my life has been restricted to Jessica Day and smooching my man. So, while I walked through heaven on earth Target, I [Continue Reading…]
Plans to Hack (Makeover) the Ikea Malm Dresser
I wrote the other day about my big plans to creaste a seaside villa paradise in my bedroom. I’ve been scouring the internet for inspiration, because the place where I sleep is an extremely important one. I can’t decide if its importance is tied with the kitchen or higher or lower–I’m leaning towards tied. I [Continue Reading…]
Emotional & Health Benefits of Letter Writing
Is there any better feeling than opening your mailbox to find an envelope with your name on it…and then opening it to find a genuine, handwritten letter? Receiving a letter tops my list of life’s simple joys. But you know what they say–you have to be a friend to have a friend. Not only is [Continue Reading…]
How To Remove Wax From A Candle Jar in 7 Easy Steps
I am a candle lover. I’d be okay if you called it an obsession. I’ll never be a cat lady, but I may just turn out to be a candle lady. Oh, you get it? Okay, moving on. With the high rate at which I burn through candles (no pun intended), I am always left [Continue Reading…]
