music makes me…shop?
i don't know about you but certain songs evoke memories & emotions within my soul. some songs get me charged up. some songs help me remember a special occasion. some songs take me back in time. some songs actually bring a tear to my eye. and,some songs make me want to shop. yeah, shop. case in point?lights by ellie goulding. i hear this song on the radio from time to time, but i swear i hear it while shopping ALL of the time. it's blasted over the airwaves at loft and bed bath & beyond. i'm pretty certain i've heard it at gap and i SWEAR sears was playing it as i tried squeezing into a lands end bathing suit earlier this week. but, the icing on the cake? i heard it while grocery shopping. seriously, y'all, what is it about this song & me … [Read more...]
all of the wants i could ever need.
mother's day came and went without incident. a day to celebrate me - you know, the mom - was not unlike any other day. i didn't have breakfast in bed nor did i sleep in. i was not off duty: i still did the laundry, worked in the yard & refereed a couple of petty arguments. but, i did get a bit of a break. we harnessed the dogs, i grabbed my camera & we drove fifteen minutes from our home to a place we love... the beach. we walked. the dogs chased birds. we got our ankles wet in the chilly water. and i snapped candid pictures of my family. i'm always behind the lens. rarely am i ever in front of it. {which is kind of disappointing because i'm a total ham for the camera.} but, being behind the lens gives me time to think. i struggle with wants and needs. i want … [Read more...]

make perfect scents!
We make perfect scents! Please join in shopping my online catalog party for Scentsy! Scentsy is a system of warmers with scented wax to make your home smell fresh & inviting. 6 reasons Scentsy is better than a candle: 1. By not burn the wax as a traditional candle would, you are NOT releasing soot or other chemicals into the air. 2. The scent bars last about 60-80 hours which outlasts candles three times their size. 3. If spilled, the wax is warm but not hot enough to scald or burn anyone. 4. No flame, no smoke! 5. Warmers range from $15-$35 and the scent bars are $5 each. 6. So many choices! You can mix & match scents with your home decor. We also have Scent Circles for your car, Travel Tin scents for your … [Read more...]
