Anti Frizz Hair Spray Recipe

I’m the gal that hates hair product- I never use hair spray, I hate hair gel, and I used to make my own homemade shampoo until I found some amazing essential oil infused shampoo/conditioner from Young Living. The only product I used to ever use was an anti-frizz spray, but I hated the smell and […]

Now that spring is basically here I’ve had the itch to do something with the outside of my house to freshen it up. I’m no landscaper- and my thumb varies from a dark green-gray to solid black depending on the season. I’ve been trying to incorporate the fresh farmhouse look more into my house- now […]

Soothing Makeup Remover Recipe

One thing that I’m not all about is getting up early to put on a bunch of makeup- and consequently having to stay up later to deal with the task of taking it all off. It’s just not in my DNA. Even though I don’t wear foundation ever (unless there is a special event) I […]

Farmhouse Table Makeover with Chalk Paint

Our kitchen update has been a slow and not-so-steady process. I’ve had a million ideas and projects run through my head- and, so far, the only one that has gotten done was our painted brick wall- which was done last fall. While we wait to have enough money to paint the strip and paint the […]
