Happy Monday! We have been away for a little bit h

Happy Monday! We have been away for a little bit here on Instagram taking a much needed vacation because we are about to get really busy over here.
.
If you watch our channel we just shared big news last week and our lives are about to change in an enormous way. We just purchased land and will be creating our very own homestead. We have been dreaming about this for quite some time. Last year we wanted to move forward but due to personal reasons we had to put it on hold. But for the past few months God has been calling us to pursue our dream and we finally found a little piece of heaven on earth.
.
We can’t wait to share more with you all but if you haven’t seen the video make sure to click the link in bio and head to our latest video on our channel. We are so excited about our new chapter and we can’t wait to get started. 💕

So I did a thing…. 🤪 I shared that I started

So I did a thing…. 🤪
I shared that I started pouring my own natural soy wax candles 🕯this past Wednesday and our signature fragrance (Egyptian Amber) is already sold out. 😱
.
Holy moly! I’ve already ordered more of that fragrance and wax! But no worries - we still have 3 more fragrances available: Honeysuckle Jasmine with a hint of Vanilla (a special mix by me😏), Vanilla Lavender (also a custom mix) and Clean Cotton… plus tomorrow I’m adding Coconut Lime to the shop! 🤩
.
And if you’re wondering a little bit about these, these are all hand-poured by me (I’m still in the learning process but I’m getting better with each pour). I use nothing but USA grown soy wax, all natural, no dyes. These all burn clean as well. One thing I have tried to do in the past few years is make a healthier home for my family and I no longer buy mass manufactured dyed candles with artificial fragrances and harsh chemicals. One thing though is that I am very picky about scents and don’t really like what’s out there in the natural soy wax candle world so I started coming up with my own. If you like elegant, soothing and spa-like fragrances you will love the custom blends. 😍
.
Plus, I find this so much fun too! I’m like a mad scientist experimenting with fragrances and percentages in my studio.

I have a link in bio if you want to check these out. I also sell any leftover wax from each batch in the form of wax melts.

My mom and I went shopping for her birthday 2 week

My mom and I went shopping for her birthday 2 weeks ago and we went to some thrift stores. She found 2 of these decorative pieces (swipe for the before 😬) and I gave them a makeover.
.
I shared all about it in today’s video. Check it out in the link in bio or find the direct link in my stories. I spent $6 on both of them and used paint I had on hand.
.
Color is Sandy Blonde from @debisdesigndiary DIY Paint. This color works every time and you can find it in my shop💕

Sometimes simple is just better. Don’t underesti

Sometimes simple is just better.
Don’t underestimate the ordinary pieces in your home that may be outdated or just lack a little character.
.
Many times we see what everyone else is buying right now and we think we need to have all those things too. I see so many people getting rid of perfectly good pieces in their home just so they could keep up with the current trends. A lifetime ago I might have felt left out (stressed out) because I couldn’t do this. Now, I could care less. 🤷🏻‍♀️
.
It’s been a while now since I have begun to appreciate more timeless pieces. Pieces with more classic looks. Pieces that are inexpensive but well made and purchased second hand. Yes, they may need a little TLC but they are oh so worth it in the end.
.
But you don’t always have to find something new to have nice things in your home. For example, my parents gave me these stools several years ago and they have been in our basement since we moved to our house. They are simple and definitely not “In style”. But I decided to give them a facelift and bring them back to life if you will.
.
Now speaking frankly, I am not in need of any stools nor do I have space for them but I hope their next owner will appreciate them and love their new look.

Today is an amazing day! Yesterday @thelatinoengin

Today is an amazing day! Yesterday @thelatinoengineer11 and I did something that’s going to change our future forever and we cannot wait to share the details with you all very soon. This has been something 2 years in the making and we finally made the move we needed to make it happen. The next few months are going to be a little crazy, scary and exciting all at once, but I’m putting my trust in God that everything will go according to plan.
.
Today I’m sharing a furniture transformation video along with a “shop with me” tour of my mom’s favorite store @kirklands - while she was with us for her birthday the kids and I took her there. By the way, thank you for all the birthday wishes you sent her way 🥰

New video is live on my channel. Click the link in bio to head on over and watch the fun!

So the backyard has been completed, but Georgia has been having an identity crisis and can’t make its mind up about whether it’s Winter or Spring?🤦🏻‍♀️
.
The wind is killing me 😫but at least I still get to enjoy the view. 😉

Have you gotten to see the video of this makeover yet? It was such a huge project and I have partnered with @plowandhearth to give one lucky person a $500 Spring Makeover Giveaway! Make sure to check it out before entries close in a few days!
