Salted Caramel Apple Cider Margarita

Is your mouth drooling just from that title? Salted Caramel Apple Cider Margarita? Then I'm going to assume if it is we would be friends. Not just friends, but the kind of friends whose mouths start to drool over words like "salted caramel" and "apple cider", because we get it. And if you aren't that's ok, I'm still glad you're here too! One thing I don't share that often on the blog is recipe, but friends I am a foodie at heart! And while I don't always share my passion for food here on the blog, I am the kind of girl who goes into a restaurant and looks at what they are serving for dessert FIRST! Then I will decide on what I am going to eat for my main meal. I bet you also didn't know that ... Read More about Salted Caramel Apple Cider Margarita

Hello Friends!! I love to decorate with pumpkins for fall. To me it's the easiest way to add some fall touches around your home. There are so many different ways you can decorate with them, whether you group them, or place just one on top of some stacked books. The possibilities are endless. I always get asked about what to put on your table during fall, that you can also use for Thanksgiving, so I rounded up 10 different pumpkin centerpiece ideas for your table. They range from the simplest ideas all the way to an elaborate tablescape, but I think there will be something in here for everyone! Come take a look ~ ...

Embracing the Process {Part 2}

Hello Friends!! Yesterday I shared one of the risks I took early on in my blogging days, when I was first starting out in my business!! To clarify I don't not consider myself a risk taker, or one who embraces chaos and uncertainty which are the first words that come to mind when I hear the phrase "risk-taker". But I've been slightly surprised with myself over the last five years or so, as I've begun to grow my business, and realize that risk taking is necessary process in order grow. I believe it's all part of embracing the process as we stretch ourselves to do bigger and better things! So today I'm going to continue with Part 2 of Embracing the Process. If you missed Part 1 I would highly ... Read More about Embracing the Process {Part 2}

Hello Friends!! Today I'm switching gears a bit from the normal home decor posts you see around here.

If not, I shared in my last post how I've really been wanting to encourage women more, not just in their homes, but in their lives as well.

Finding your Dream

I believe that everyone has a dream placed inside of them. I don't think it matters what age you are, or your race or geographic location. I believe we were all born with a dream deep down inside of our hearts just waiting to come forth. I've been really feeling encouraged this past year to encourage women (and men) to chase their God-sized dreams, and not let fear of failure or other people scare them from walking into their full potential. Because I believe that when we are walking out in that God-sized dream we are walking in our fullest potential. ... Read More about Finding your Dream

Hello Friends!! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!! It was so much fun sharing our fall home tour, and living room with all of you this past week!! Even though the home tour is up, I'm still on the hunt for some more fall throw pillows, and ones that I can transition into my winter decor as well. If you are a familiar face around here, you know my approach to seasonal decor is subtle. I like to let nature do the talking, and don't typically go for anything too flashy or noticeable when it comes to trinkets and pillows. As I'm searching for my own self, I thought it would be fun if I rounded up some of my absolute favorites - my fall must haves if you will, and share them all with ...
