My First Diffuser
People have been raving about diffusers and essential oils for years and I’ve just gotten my first one. Yes, I’m late to the party. It’s not that I was ever against them or anything like that – I just never got one, but I was always interested when people would gush about the benefits of them. Then, when my bff asked me what I wanted for Christmas and the only thing I could think of was cozy home stuff. She gave me a diffuser amongst some other homey things. I got a set of popular essential oils – lavender, peppermint, and lemon and started it up! I’ve been using it…

American Home by Yankee Candle Fire Log
I, like many others, love the smell of a fire wood burning. Fireplaces are a love of mine and pretty much the only good thing about camping is a camp fire. Back in the early fall Pine Mountain reached out to me and asked if I wanted to try out their American Home by Yankee Candle Fire Logs in the scent “Fresh Balsam Fir”. I, of course, said yes and thought the logs would be so great in my new fireplace in my townhouse. Fast forward a few months and it’s finally cold enough to have the fireplace going. But, I decided not to light the logs in my own fireplace because…

How To Buy A House That Needs An Update
The oldest homes on the market are often the ones that need the most work, and while home furnaces, water heaters and built-in appliances often need an update, an older home could need structural updates that you didn’t expect when you bought it. Of course, if you’re aiming to buy a fixer-upper, you’ll know that when you buy an old house, there will be things that need to change within them to make them liveable. If you choose to buy a home that needs some cosmetic work, you’ll be able to purchase at a lower price than a more established home. It also means that you need to develop a…

Christmas Mugs
I love collecting mugs, but sadly I have to be selective with them since I don’t have that much room to store them all! Since Christmas mugs are basically the best mugs, I thought I’d share mine. I had this idea a few weeks ago so whenever I was drinking out of a Christmas mug I would take a photo so that I could put this post together. Some you may have seen on here before because they’re not new. The first three mugs I’m sharing are from Williams-Sonoma and are not new. I believe they sell these every Christmas because I’ve seen them in-store and in the catalogs. They…

Mini Christmas Tree + Mini Vintage Ornaments
When you get a mini Christmas tree you need mini ornaments right? Okay well I guess you don’t need them, but it’s always fun to decorate. I have two mini trees in my place this year. One is new and one is old. The one I’ve had for years is currently in my family room and if you’ve been following me for a while or at least for more than 1 Christmas season then you’ve seen it before. I didn’t decorate that one – it has berries and pinecones on it and I decided to leave it without additional decorations. I have a few photos of that one which I’ll include…
