Pearl’s First Birthday Party!

It took me about 10 seconds to come up with a theme for my daughter’s first birthday party. My go-to in life, style, decor, and apparently party planning is “Shabby Chic”. What’s so great about shabby chic decorating is that you have endless options no matter how big or small your budget is. Here’s a look into the party & decor!

Homemade Diaper Pail Deodorizer Cubes (video)

Here is a quick video on how to make Diaper Pail Deodorizing Cubs! You only need 3 ingredients: Baking soda, water, and an essential oil of your choice. I used 2 cups of baking soda and one cup of water, followed by 30 drops of rosemary oil :)

Thanksgiving in Mexico!

Had such a blast with my in-law’s for Thanksgiving. We spent a few days in Cabo together, and it was magical! Here are a few photos of the fun!

Great trip, but I’m glad to be back home hanging Christmas decorations!
