A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS

maybelline

I have the so pearly pink and I absolutely love it! Funny thing is, it really does last all day!

Who doesn't need, or could not benefit from these? They are adorable, fashionable, and subtle enough for summer!

Oh goodness...need I say more? So freakin' cute and it would be the perfect touch for any outfit or occasion!

5 boxes for $1 at fresh market

The absolute most refreshing snack on a hot day. Just pop them in the freezer and enjoy!

whole foods

Weston's cousin introduced this to me a month ago and I have not been able to stop drinking it since. I found my new weakness! It has just the right kick and it is the perfect change up to the regular juices.

I believe pilates is the transformation that any body needs and I am so excited to be doing this every week! What a great way to relax and get toned for the summer!

What would summer be like without a wide-brimmed straw hat? Not only is it fashion forward for the beach, pool, boat etc, but it blocks the sun too; in all the right places!  

BALLOONS FOR HIM

materials needed

Sweets birthday is this weekend and we are having a few parties with friends and family, and I wanted to make something special to decorate our home with the 'birthday vibe'. I found this tutorial on best bites and I decided it was simple enough to throw together in no time. All you need in order to make a balloon wreath is some sort of a wreath ( i used syrofoam), balloons and floral pins!  It was so super easy and it turned out great! I completed mine in about 1 hour. 

the almost finished product...in which you will have to wait for until this weekend

 I am not posting the finished product quite yet as to not give away the surprise, but I will post more about this and the other birthday party festivities in a few days. It will be quite the Birthday Bash for the up-coming 32 year old! 

seriously I love the colors of the balloons

 Happy Pre-Pre-Birthday and Party Party Day Sweets!!!

ZZZZZ...

every morning sweets are i are racing to get out the door and to work on time.

we have been snoozing a bit longer than we should have.

not for lack of sleep, but for the purpose that we just can't get out of our amazing bed.

you see, our bed is the most comfortable bed.

it is soft, cushiony, plush, posture perfect and relaxing.

it is practically made of hopes and dreams.

we have to drag each other out of it kicking and screaming!

i love our bed and i love intelli-bed for making the worlds best mattress.

MERRY DESIGN

ALICE LANE HOME

I can't wait to go to this wonderful and beautiful boutique in Orem! They have the best holiday ideas and decorations, and their home decor is Amazing! Christmas might have to come early for me this year...

Message in a bottle!

I have been doing a little bit of Interior Design the past few months and I have been researching on the Internet like crazy for ideas of color schemes, cabinet and trim designs, window styles and furnishings. Almost all the sites I have visited have bottles in their kitchens as accent pieces in order to add a pop of color and give the room a live-in feel.

The usual suspects are normally:

Perrier, San Pellegrino and Acqua Panna

There is nothing wrong with using these, but to me it’s a bit BORING! There are so many other choices you can go with so why settle with what everyone else is using. In my research efforts I stumbled upon a little place in Dallas called The Soda Gallery. They have 200 bottles to choose from and are from all over the world!

WOW!

If anyone has been there, please let me know, or if anyone wants to take a trip to Texas...

Below are some picks that I think would add a bit more fun to the design process and really add a punch of color to your kitchen!

I really love all the thought and effort that goes into the packaging from the shapes of the bottles, the fonts, the labels and the color combinations. They all look like mini works of art and for only a small few dollars a bottle, you can give your kitchen a mini-facelift by adding a couple of them. Also it is an added bonus because you get to drink them!

So I ask again, does anyone want to go? I definitely need to add this store to my 'places to visit list'!
