Pinteresting: Mother's Day 2014

Hi lovelies,

I have Mother's Day all on the brain. Each year, I become way indecisive into what to give my mother for the special day. It was so easy when I was a child as the typical gifts were a handmade card and maybe a homemade yellow cake with chocolate frosting topped with M&Ms. As an adult, the options are so plentiful that it puts me in a tailspin. Maybe Pinterest will be my resolute this year with a mix of retail finds and DIY treats.

Pinteresting: Writing in Style pt. 1

Hi Lovelies,

I don't know about you but I love having a beautiful journal or sketchbook by my side. Unfortunately, my current one is on its last leg and running out of empty pages. So, I guess I have to get a new one and buy a few writing utensils along the way. Pinterest sure has me building a pretty long wish list so this is just Part 1.

Pinteresting: Easter Treats

Hi Lovelies,

Easter is just around the corner. And you know what that means? Sweets and treats oh my!  I remember as a child enjoying the bounty of goodies found in my Easter baskets. I also treasured the occasional egg hunt. Now, that I am an adult, I rarely get to experience such moments. So, to get back to reliving those memories, I decided to do a virtual egg and sweet hunt. Look at what's so dang on Pinteresting.

What childhood memories do you have of Easter that you wish to relive?

Until next time, have a beautifully designed day.

Take care,

Pinteresting: Rainy Days

Hi lovelies,

Spring weather is so random at times. One half of the day could be full of sunshine and clear skies. Then, the next thing you know its dark skies and full on rain showers.  But the day doesn't have to turn into gloom and doom. I think these Pinterest finds will do just the trick to even make your rainy days joyful or at least fashionable.
