Have you ever wanted to meet Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and Grace Kelly? How neat would it be to hang out with them one on one? Well for Libby Lomax, each of those famous ladies magically appear on her old, smelly sofa! Lucy Holliday wrote this book series and as far as I can tell is hilariously brilliant. Here is my positive review of her Night In series.

I love life hacks. Finding easier ways to conquer every day tasks is my jam. This is also referred to as “creating margin” – aka, making more time for what matters most to you. I also am a nerd and love personal finance. So if you think I’m not entering the new roaring ’20s with all the life hacks and money plans, you’d be very wrong. I’ve had a lot of difficulties over the last few years and have had to learn how to conquer different situations. I want to share these life and money hacks with you, wherever you are at in life. Hopefully you find something that helps you enter this year with a good bang!
As we enter a new year and decade, I want to embrace it more than any new year before. Mostly because I want to close the door on 2019 as tight as possible. I have told others that I would like to give a middle finger to this past year and even joked about drinking heavily New Year’s Eve to forget. But as I look back on all the things I wished hadn’t happened, I also have a lot to be grateful for.
I hope you had a Merry Christmas! It’s hard to believe it’s already over and 2020 is just around the corner. We are keeping our New Year’s Eve festivities pretty low key this year but I still wanted to ring in the year with some glitter. And NYE is usually frigid here so I need something warm to wear. What better way to fulfill both issues than with a glitter sweatshirt! This is truly a 5 minute craft and can be adapted to any article of clothing with any pattern. Let’s welcome 2020 with some glitter!
This Friday my department is having our holiday party with white elephant gifts. I’m not one to go for the crude or stupid-funny gifts so I thought I’d make something a little more cute-funny. We’ve had a lot of changes within our company this year and our whole department is a mixture of previous separate ones, so I figured we could all use some survival items. An Office Survival Kit is extremely easy and inexpensive to make. A trip to the dollar store and a few items from your house will provide everything you need.
Remember when I made earrings inspired by Joanna Gaines? Well there is a new girl on HGTV that has inspired me to make the perfect winter earrings! Heather Fox of the show Stay or Sell had multiple pairs. I lost count at how many different ones she had when their series premiered at the end of the summer. But they are so easy to make we all could have multiple pairs! I opted for white pom pom earrings this time. A little like a snow ball and a lot of contrast with my dark hair. Make yourself a pair or two and then make some for gifts! I got a lot of compliments when I wore mine to work a couple weeks ago. So on to the tutorial…
