It’s that time of year again: the time where you scour the internet for a unique Christmas gift that he doesn’t already have. Hopefully this collection of fun finds will help make your holiday shopping a bit easier for those hard to shop for fellas!

When I’m looking for the perfect gift, regardless of who it’s for, I usually tend to take the ‘road less traveled’. I always attempt to find the most unusual gift, something I’m sure they don’t already have but something they’re sure to love too. This year is no different. I have collected a few very unique gifts that I have on my own list to Santa, and hopefully they’ll make those amazing women in your life smile too!

I don’t know about you, but I’ve spent years, and hundreds of dollars searching for the perfect pillow and have come up empty handed (and kink-necked)… until now!! I’m happy to report that I have recently found the most fabulous pillow EVER, and I can’t wait to share it with you (the info, not my pillow)!

I really think you’ll love it.

Each year when fall rolls around, retailers promote their own collection of fun finds, which can often be very overwhelming: the fall inspired scented candles, cozy flannel blankets, decorative floral wreaths… Well, lucky for you, I’ve done plenty of digging around and selected a few great finds to save you both your precious time and a few dollars along the way. From cooking gadgets to blankets and front door rugs to tasty treats, I hope you find something that inspires you to get cozy!

Occasionally I’m able to sneak away from ‘mom life’ and treat myself to a day of retail therapy. With a house full of boys, a husband and two dogs (one of which is a 10 week old puppy), finding a quiet, chaos-free zone is nearly impossible. So when I get in my car alone and make the 35 minute drive to Boise (Idaho’s beautiful capitol city), there’s nothing more enjoyable than sipping my coconut milk iced coffee and driving in complete silence. No music, no back seat chatter. Just me, my thoughts and the highway.

For me, that’s the best therapy.

With three kiddos, it seems like we’re constantly moving rooms to accommodate their growing needs. Six years ago when we moved in to our current home, the tiny spare bathroom in the basement was next to my office, and rarely used by anyone but me. Fast forward 5 years and my ‘office’ has now been transformed into a teenage football lovin’ kids room. And that bathroom? It’s been taken over too. Needless to say, it was definitely time for a remodel.

I figured since Mother’s Day is right around the corner, this is the perfect time to share these perfect gift ideas with you. Then, if you love them like I do, you can pass along the idea(s) to your loving family members, and make their Mom’s day gift giving a piece of cake this year!

Reorganizing my pantry has been one thing I’ve always wanted to tackle, but somehow it’s never made it to the top of the to-do list. Perhaps because the thought of taking everything out of my pantry sounds exhausting! Or maybe I’m afraid of what I’ll find?? Regardless of the reason, now that it’s done, I wish I would have done it years ago!

Often times holidays have a way of emptying our pocket books, and when the day is done, there’s not much to show for it.

Have you ever found yourself looking around your house thinking, “why have I never updated that?” It’s something I think we all do from time to time. Styles change. Taste changes. But change can be overwhelming, and costly, especially when you don’t know where to start. In this post I’ll share with you a few simple tips to get you feeling confident about picking out new accents for your home, plus a few online shopping tricks that will save you hours of time!

At some point over the last few years I have developed a passion for discovering unusual, tasty foods and unique ingredients at a grocery stores. I’m always on the lookout for new snacks and ways to add a little spice to a life of healthy eating. I never know what I’ll find, and don’t always make the best decisions, but sometimes that’s part of the fun!

I wish I had enough time and storage space to change up my decor for every holiday, but life seems to always move too fast for that! Instead, I focus on combining a mix of things I have laying around with a few new things to switch it up just enough…

This is my happy place. The place where creativity flows like magic spells in a Harry Potter movie. But, to appreciate her beauty, you must see where she started…..

Creating my shed definitely challenged me spatially as a designer but it was also the most rewarding project I’ve completed to date! I have a simplistic and clean design approach…
