Spring Fashion Finds

Spring fashion finds

When Spring rolls around, I am SO eager to bring out the adorable dresses! Today I wanted to share with you some of my favorite picks from Amazon! I have been so pleasantly surprised by the clothing I’ve recently purchased from Amazon! It seems every few years, I can never find anything I like in the stores. So, I decided to give Amazon a try!









I am SO happy I did, because I have found some amazing staple pieces that are now my favorites! These dresses are great for being both cute and comfy! I live in dresses as often as possible come Spring and Summer! Click on any picture below to be taken directly to that product! Easy peasy!

Have you shopped clothing from Amazon yet? My best tip of advice is to read the comments and feedback. Customers post a lot of pictures and tips that can help you guide your sizing, etc. If you have a favorite piece, please share the link in the comments!

Have a wonderful week friends! See you back here soon ♥️

Fun Spring Break Breakfast Idea

I’ll tell you what, we couldn’t be more excited that Spring is officially on it’s way, here at our house! The kids are on Spring Break this week and we’ll soon be headed to the beach!

To be honest, the last few years we have done absolutely nothing while the kids were off school, so this year I wanted to treat them to a little adventure! Starting off, with a fun Spring break breakfast! They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day for a reason! Not to mention, it sets the for the entire day ☺️

Spring Mantel Design

Spring Mantel Design

If you’re anything like me, you’re much anticipating Spring! Last week I shared some faux houseplant inspiration and mentioned that I would be sharing my live plants this week! Well, the time is here! And let me just say, I’m a solid 3 (almost 4) weeks and the plants are still alive ☺️ Folks, this is a big deal! Let’s hope it stays that way! Today I’m sharing my Spring mantel design!

Spring Mantel Design

My design inspiration came from the beautiful live plants I snagged while on a shopping trip to Aldi. I wasn’t expecting to come home with plants, yet I came home with three! Even went and bought more little ones later that day! Their bold, whimsical greens made me feel alive! And after a long winter here in Ohio, that was feeling I was absolutely aching for!

Faux Plant Inspiration

Faux plant inspiration

Well hello there stranger! It has been awhile since I’ve been around here! I’ve been taking some much needed time to myself, but ready to get back into the swing of things. Now that winter is almost over, I am in full Spring- mode over here! You too?

Today I wanted to share with you some simple ways to add spring into your home! These faux plants will inspire you to bring life into your decor! Click on any picture below to be taken directly to that product! Easy peasy!

 

 


If you follow me on Instagram, you know last week I bought some live house plants to add into my decor! I will be sharing how I incorporated them throughout my home soon! I’m crossing my fingers that I’m able to keep them alive! My wrap sheet to this point is unsuccessful with live plants, but I’m hopeful this go-around. If you don’t want to take the risk with live houseplants, these faux ones are the next best thing!! A lot of times, you can’t even tell the difference!

These little faux plants are the perfect addition to your coffee or side tables, mantel designs, bookshelves, windowsills and added to your kitchen decor, just to name a few! I love adding herbs into the kitchen! I spend a lot of time in my kitchen, so seeing those sweet little plants makes me happy! It’s the little things people!

Do you add faux or real plants to your decor? Share your thoughts by commenting below!

I will be back here soon with an update on my Spring mantel design!

A Warm, Cozy Chic Christmas Tree

November 28, 2018 by Fotini Filed Under: Christmas, home decor 953 Comments

A Warm, Cozy Chic Christmas Tree

Hello there & welcome! Decorating my home for Christmas is one of my very favorite things! Creating a warm, cozy chic Christmas tree design was my goal this Christmas, & I feel that I accomplished just that!

I get asked a lot “do you buy all new ornaments each year?”, & the answer is no! I typically do shop after Christmas sales & may pick up some new ornaments for me to use the following Christmas, but I actually use the same ornaments year-to-year. It’s amazing how you can make your tree look different each year, even while using those same ornaments! [Read more…]

FREE Mrs. Meyer’s Holiday Set from Grove Collaborative

November 27, 2018 by Fotini Filed Under: Christmas, home

FREE Mrs. Meyer's Holiday Set from Grove Collaborative

It’s that time of year again. Our house is buzzing with activity, from hosting out-of-town guests, to throwing holiday parties, to wrapping gifts & decorating the mantel.

Not surprisingly, my desire to have a clean, welcoming home intensifies tenfold in this time each year!

Fortunately, it’s also the time of year when Mrs. Meyer’s holiday scents return!!! (insert happy dance🙌🏼).

Not only do they look & smell festive, they also make the task of cleaning & doing dishes a lot more enjoyable! 

This year, Mrs. Meyer’s is bringing back three crowd favorites: Iowa Pine, Peppermint, & Orange Clove. I’ve been waiting all year for Iowa Pine to return, because the crisp and spicy scent fills the entire house with wonderful smells of Christmas trees.   

FREE Mrs. Meyer's Holiday Set from Grove Collaborative

Right now, you can get a free Mrs. Meyer’s trio in your choice of scents, plus a free set of Grove Collaborative walnut scrubber sponges — all packed up in a limited edition red cleaning caddy for gifting (or keeping!). 

New customers will get the holiday set when you place your first order of $20:

  • Free Mrs. Meyer’s holiday hand soap

  • Free Mrs. Meyer’s holiday dish soap

  • Free Mrs. Meyer’s holiday multi-surface spray

  • Grove Collaborative red caddy

  • Grove Collaborative walnut scrubber sponges

Plus, if you spend $39, you’ll also receive a free Grove stoneware tray to beautifully display your new holiday soaps.

If you’re already a Grove customer, you’ll get a free set of Grove walnut scrubbers  — perfect for cleaning up after baking cookies or pumpkin pie.

FREE Mrs. Meyer's Holiday Set from Grove Collaborative

This beautiful red caddy is everything you need to organize your home for the holidays! While you could go the traditional route & use it to store your cleaning supplies, it would also make a great gift wrapping station stocked with tape, ribbons, markers, & tags. Or, wrap your silverware in napkins, secure with a napkin ring, & place them in the caddy for your holiday buffet. 

Speaking of holiday buffets, there’s no shortage of dirty dishes this time of year. Fortunately, Mrs. Meyer’s dish soap is perfect for tackling tough messes. Put a drop in your roasting pan or crockpot and watch grease disappear! 

Of course, no kitchen or bathroom is complete without Mrs. Meyer’s hand soap. I get tons of compliments on these scents, & the cheerful bottles are an easy way to spruce up your sink-side display.

Another holiday hosting must-have is Mrs. Meyer’s multi-surface cleaner. It’s ideal for those last-minute cleanups before guests arrive. You only need one product for countertops, walls, bathroom fixtures, & wood or tile floors. Plus, it leaves your entire home smelling like the holidays.

Since the holiday season is also flu season, I always keep the multi-surface spray on hand for wiping down faucets, doorknobs, & other surfaces that get touched all the time. 

Grove Collaborative is also an essential for me during the busy holiday season! Grove hand-selects the best natural products & delivers them (carbon offset) right to your doorstep, on your schedule. They’ve got you covered for all your cleaning & organization needs as you head into the holiday season.

When you submit your first order, you’ll also be signed up for the free 60 day VIP trial. For 60 days, you’ll save even more with free shipping, free gifts, price matching, exclusive sales & customer service. That means more money left over to spend on gifts for your family (or a little treat for yourself!). 

These holiday sets fly off the shelves faster than toys on Black Friday, so don’t wait! Here’s how to grab your free set:

  1. Sign up for Grove Collaborative here (affiliate link).You will receive the Mrs.Meyer’s Holiday Set for free when you sign up!

  2. To receive this offer, your order needs to be a minimum of $20. Choose the combination of products & scents you love & receive your first box within a few days.

  3. You made it! Click Finish & Pay and place your order.

You’re going to absolutely love Grove Collaborative & the simplicity of using great products chosen by YOU, delivered straight to your door! Thanks for stopping by! XO.
