Does anyone have a kid who goes to a school where there are bake sales as a fundraiser? Cue every mom in America tossing their hands up! After years of bake sale guilt where I spent hours trying to perfect cookie recipes to send to school, I finally had an epiphany: You can charge way more for your baked goods if they have a "gourmet" element to them. That can come in the form of ingredients - or better yet - packaging! How you package up your bake sale goods goes a long way to getting the most for your organization.  Plus, learning how to wrap cookies differently can allow Keep Reading

this is the BEST essential oils blend available - it's a lavender blend

I have been hunting FOREVER – like literally 20 million years – for a good scent diffuser for my home. When I was a little girl, we didn’t have anything good smelling in our house. My family was as frugal as frugal comes, and essential oil diffusers were not high on top of the list of things to buy. I would go to friends’ homes and marvel at these wonderful smelling devices that released fragrance in the air. 😊 I vowed that I would one day make my home smell amazing despite how unpractical it was to spend hard-earned money on this luxury. Hehe. **Don’t tell my mom – she would flip Keep Reading

How to Make Your House Smell Good All the Time! | try this essential oil spa blend in a reed diffuser

You recognize it immediately when you go to a spa. That lovely smell wafting through the air.  So delicious and refreshing, you just wanna bottle it up and take it home with you.  I'm a bit of a spa junkie. I LOVE going to spas and make a point to visit one on almost every vacation we go on, especially if we're going somewhere as a couple. Just thinking about going to a spa makes me feel more relaxed. The massage. yessssss. The scents. yesssss. The robes. YESSSS!!! I've always wanted to make my home smell like a spa I just didn't know where to begin.  Then a few Keep Reading

I'm so excited because today is the day I continue adding to my collection of Bursting Blossoms coloring pages. This is the fourth and fifth coloring sheets that include Bible verses! In case you missed them, I've linked to the other Bible verse coloring page printables in this series at the bottom of this post. They are made with uplifting scripture from Ephesians 2:8, Psalm 46:1 and Matthew 6:10. I just loved creating these printables, so I plan on continuing to at least 25 versions of these scripture verse coloring pages, maybe 50? Who knows! Make sure to PIN Keep Reading

We took a poll in the house recently, and the kids have spoken. More game nights are happening! We always have a great time on game nights, and we're going to start doing them on Thursdays or Fridays because those are evenings when the kids don't have activities or any homework. I'm so excited to get this tradition started. Good Luck, Kids They're going to learn real fast that I really get into it. Maybe I shouldn't be so competitive... but I can't help it! I know they're just children, but they asked for it. :D Besides, they all have same competitive streak that I do. They're a group Keep Reading

You have one kid and people ask you when you'll have the next. You have a second kid and people ask if you're done. You have a third kid and people say your hands are full (implying another would be ludicrous) You have a fourth and people ask if you know where they come from. You have a fifth and people ask if you know the Duggars! I definitely think you should be allowed to have as many children as you choose to. :=) This is the perfect rebuttal to their haters! lol What do you think?

I have always wanted to paint a chevron pattern in the girls room, but it's always seemed so intimidating! After watching this tutorial, I realize it's simpler than I thought.
