Over Here! And Here!

Mar 05

Surprise! I’m here on a Thursday, I’m sure you’ve all noticed and are questioning my out of normal behaviour (right?). I’m just kidding, I know you have a life :)

I was over at Today’s Creative Blog earlier this week for my monthly post over there- and I shared two fun handlettered printables for Saint Patrick’s Day. I also shared the way I gold ‘foiled’ them (it’s easier than you think!). Hop over there and snap up the free printables!

Whew- I told you it’s been a busy week around here! I’ll let you go and enjoy the rest of your Thursday now, and see you tomorrow with my shower curtain tips and tricks!

    You are so crazy talented and your blog is so beautiful that it never fails to amaze me. Such an inspiration to me!!! I can’t wait for us to one day have our own place that we can remodel and play around with (and when that day comes I’m going to be LIVING on your blog haha). The bathroom looks incredible! And I love the ‘Stay Gold’ printout. Just stunning.

    You are a reno queen! That shower is absolutely gorgeous. I can never wrap my head around the potential in places that need updating, much to my husband’s frustration because he’d LOVE a project house. (I’ll have to email you a funny story about our house hunting battles.)

      If you still want a project house, I will be selling mine … only thing is it’s in France (Europe) so maybe just a bit too far ! Lol. Happy hunting ! Best wishes, Dannie

    Do you know what company you ordered your tile from?

      Yes! The Hex is from Home Depot and the larger tiles are San Marco Viva Linen (they were available at almost every flooring store in town).

      Hello! We only used glue down vinyl tiles on the floor, I definitely would not recommend them in the shower. The shower is using porcelain and marble tiles :)

I keep seeing articles about pandemic fatigue and long term stress and burnout and while it’s totally relatable, I really just want tips on how to actually deal with that. I thought I’d share some things that are helping me if you’re in the same boat... and I’d love if you shared your tips in the comments! We could all use them 🥰
-I’ve been going for a walk every day by myself. Even when it’s freaking cold like today, I just bundle. It’s the only time I get truly to myself with no kiddo asking for something and that I don’t have to try squeeze in an email or something else.
-I’ve been putting the instant pot to work and leaning on cheater meals (local soup mixes are amazing), Costco dinners... whatever
- I’m prioritizing friendships with phone calls, zoom games nights and group chats about the bachelor (with matching snacks!)
- I’ve given myself a schedule that has downtime to play with the kids and to read... even when there’s things I feel like I ‘should be’ doing
- I’ve realized exactly how much time I’ve been spending on my phone and that it’s become my response to stress. Have you ever looked up your screen time analytics? 🥴 look at how many times you pick it up in your day. I’m setting app limits for myself and trying to break this habit, but I’d really love tips!
