I’ve had my eyebrows tinted twice professionally and at the time I thought to myself…this is probably something I can do at home (a solution is painted onto your brows and wiped off a few minutes later, so it seemed like something really simple to DIY). I paid $25 and $18 respectively to have my eyebrows professionally tinted and now I do them at ...
How to Moisturize, Protect, Treat & Prime Your Skin with One Product
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Olay. The opinions and text are all mine. I've shared a lot about my makeup routine over the years and as I've gotten more into skin care, something that was an adjustment for me was layering my morning skin care products underneath my makeup. It took some getting used to as I ...
Where to Buy the Best Ginger Jars Online
Over the years, I've grown quite a diverse collection of ginger jars. It's to the point where Harper recognizes them at Home Goods and says "hey mommy, you should get that one!" I love using ginger jars in nearly every space of our home. The blue and white patterns are so crisp and they're such a classic way to decorate and add visual interest ...

How To Get Rid of Your Child’s Pacifier
How to get rid of a pacifier has been a highly-requested post, so after this same method worked for both of my children, I feel confident enough to recommend it. 2.5 years old felt like the right age for both kids to start talking about getting rid of “paci.” Both Harper and Lincoln used pacis from the time they were born (they both loved the MAM ...

7 Tools I Can’t Live Without at Home
Keeping a clean and clutter-free home is important to me. Though I don’t always accomplish this goal, I have a lot of tools and strategies that help us stay on top of things (caveat: most of the time). Since Kevin and I both work full time outside of the home, have two children, run this blog and have a slew of other home-related responsibilities, ...
Master Bedroom Update and Design Boards with Oyster Creek Studios
It’s a pretty great day when you open your inbox to find design boards from Aryn at Oyster Creek Studios. Rewind to earlier this summer – I hired Aryn to help me with our master bedroom. It has always been the most neglected space in our home and I was ready to have the grown-up, completed bedroom of my dreams instead of a room that constantly felt ...
