3 Holiday Hairstyles to Up Your Glam Game this December
With the popularity of my 5 easy fall hairstyles post, I thought I would come back with some fairly easy hairstyles for the holiday season! I’ve got 2 pretty simple ones + one that might require a little extra work! These are perfect for Christmas parties, New Years Eve, family gatherings, etc. and all take less than 10 minutes! All you need is a ponytail holder/elastic and a little faith (and a lot of bobby pins when it comes to the last one 😉 ) Without further a[hair]do, lets get into the hairstyles! This first one is probably my favorite, but that could just be because I love wearing my…

Gift Guide for Grandparents
Isn’t it the WORST trying to buy a Christmas gift for the person who has everything? It feels like that’s always the grandparents! Like, every single year. I have absolutely no idea what to get for some of my very favorite people (who always seem to know what to get me!) Figuring I surely wasn’t in the same boat, I set out to make a gift guide for my fellow grandchildren intent on making this the best Christmas ever. I didn’t really limit these price-wise, though I think everything ended up being under $200. BECAUSE with the more expensive items (like the Nixplay Digital Frame), you and the rest of the…

Like, I’ve heard of them, but seriously doubt they exist. They FOR SURE won’t once they try a taste of my daddy’s recipe. 😉 He’s made it for my family my whole life – sometimes when it doesn’t snow, but always when it does. There’s something about snow and mug of cocoa that just makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside! So I decided to share his special recipe with you. Listen to the perfect Christmas playlist while you make it…

DIY $50 Christmas Wreath… for Under $20!
Once upon a time, I was a broke millennial. Oh, wait… that’s me right now. Lol. Once upon literally right at this moment, the holidays were upon me. And I need some decorations to spruce up the place! I desperately wanted a beautiful wreath, preferably one that lights up since I hadn’t put up any Christmas lights (yes, I’m lazy, I know. but those things are a lot of work!!). But all of the ones that checked my boxes were way outta my price range! So I set off to Pinterest to try and find a wreath that my unskilled hands could make. Alas. All the ones I liked required…

What is Blogmas? + My Top 10 Favorite Christmas Movies
IT’S HERE! IT’S HERE! IT’S FINALLY HERE! The time of year where I’m not judged for listening to Michael Buble sing Christmas songs on repeat. I can put up my tree and it’s no longer frowned upon. Everyone is giving and getting and baking and loving and eating and I LOVE EVERYTHING. Whew. Okay. I just had to get that out. 🙂 NOW. Today is December 1st, which means it’s also the first day of Blogmas!! For those of you who aren’t familiar with the term, Blogmas is an advent calendar of sorts. Basically every day from now until Christmas, I’ll be posting something new on here (which is insane,…
