    DIY Deer Costume

    Doe a deer, a female deer… I realize female deer do not have antlers and it’s highly unlikely that a male would have pink sparkly antlers with flowers. However, in my imagination, this is what I would look like if I were a deer. There are lots of deer and fawn makeup tutorials on-line, most of them are pretty similar. Some are very extravagant and require skills. Luckily, I found a few that I thought were do-able for someone like me with zero make-up skills. So with that, I decided to become a deer for a day. This look was inspired by a tutorial from Whippy Cake who I’ve been following for…

    Dining Room Hutch

    After looking for years for a dining room hutch, I finally found a lightly used hutch on the Facebook Marketplace that fit our needs perfectly! I was so excited to set it up and organize all of my special plates and linens in one place. One thing I love about this hutch is the top cabinets on the right and left both extend all the way to the counter. The four small drawers are perfect for storing things like name cards and my custom chalkboard food labels. The glass doors display my collection of cabbage leaf plates and the space directly below gives me a place to decorate seasonally. The…

    Leopard Print is Back This Fall

    Leopard Print Trend Leopard Print T-Shirt | Black Ankle Strap Sandals | Leather Earrings   If you’ve been out shopping lately, you’ve no doubt seen this fall’s animal print trend is everywhere! It almost feels weird to call it a fall trend because animal print is a classic look that can be worn anytime. If you are like me and have a lot of black clothing, adding one or two (or five) animal print pieces will really add versatility to what’s already in your closet! With this look so popular right now, I wanted to share this cute leopard T-shirt I found on Amazon. It fits true to size, but…

    Visit with Us on Our First Trip to the Silos Baking Co.: Day Two at the Silos

    The Moment Just Before Since this was our first trip to the Silos Baking Co, I wanted to go early and avoid the crowds. At 7:30 in the morning the mood was pretty relaxed, likely the calm before the storm. It’s just a matter of time before the line starts forming along the exterior of the building. Upon entering the bakery we were handed order forms to fill out while waiting our turn. This helps streamline the ordering process when the bakery is extra busy. The Lemon Lavender cupcake was my number one choice and I could hardly wait to try it. I toyed with the idea of trying a…
