I wrote this post as part of a campaign with Plaid and Blueprint Social. The opinions in this post are my own. My hubby bought me flowers a little while ago.

And it is so cold it feels like you have to sit up straight and have perfect posture in the space. Yuck!! I don't know why I … [Read more...]
I have seen this around the blogosphere quite a bit so you might have already seen this tip. But in case you haven't, it is too good not to share. I love to decorate with photos. It's an important part of my home decor. I think it shows your family that you love them enough to put them in prominent places in your home. A long time ago someone told me that children that have pics of themselves in their rooms have higher self esteem. I don't know if this is true or not but it makes … [Read more...]
