Lately I’ve been feeling that itch to create something pretty. I’m a little rusty in the crafty department these days, but I think that a mason jar project is in order! So many things you can do with those age-old jars!
This Christmas snow globe is so cute too- I can’t believe Christmas is just 4 months away! Can you?
Ever since painting the half-bath door glossy dark gray, I’ve been wanting to paint the doors in the upstairs hallway the same way. Â Painting doors isn’t as daunting as you…
Can y’all believe Jordan is six months old already?! And she just turned 7 months old yesterday! Since our son is 6 years old, it’s obviously been awhile since we’ve…
How’s your week going friends?  I’m just over here counting down the days ’til the 2017 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale like a kid at Christmas!  It’s so close, opening this Thursday for cardholders.  ??I got a friendly letter in the mail letting me know they upped my limit just in time for the sale- #thankyouverymuch!  We’ll keep this little detail to ourselves and not bother the hubby with that tidbit of info!  😉  Are you excited?!?! Of course, I’ll be sharing my picks on Thursday and then a big ‘ole dressing room round up on Friday with fit tips and recommendations. Let me know what you have questions about and I’ll do my best investigative journalism for ya!
This swingy striped! cold shoulder dress is perfect for daytime or evenings out. Â Love the simplicity of it and the drapey fabric. Â Such a steal at right under $50! Â For a daytime look, you could wear it with the #10 sandals (they have lots of colors) & for evening, these black open toe heeled sandals would be great.
Show off your summer mani with this gorgeous, chic statement ring! I like to wear it on my first or middle finger on my right hand with a bold bracelet.
I’m sure you’ve heard me rave about this maxi dress before. Â Every time I wear it, I get tons of compliments and it’s really flattering and comfortable. Â It’s on sale under $40! Â I wear XS.
High waist leggings will be your BFF, I swear! Â They keep you all nice and tucked in and make you feel great while working out. Â Zella quality is always superb, and this pair comes in three colors with criss-cross detail at the calf. Â They run TTS, I wear size XS.
Although I normally wear a tank to workout, this Zella tee is my go-to when I want a t-shirt. Â The seams in the shirt are perfectly placed to help the illusion of a smaller waist and I like the cut of the sleeves that don’t irritate me when I’m working out.
My go-to tank, $11!!! Â I think I need to stock up on the other colors. Â It’s perfect for wearing alone or layering under cardigans or other tops. Â It fits TTS, XS here.
I have the older version of these sandals and they are really good! They come in tons of colors and the “beige leather” has a snakeskin pattern that goes with everything. Â Sam Edelman makes quality shoes that last, so I highly recommend them!
I’ve been super excited to announce the giveaway of a Silhouette craft cutting machine! I know how popular they are, so if you wanted one for Christmas but were naughty…

I'm loving all of these. We don't have Mason jars in France, instead we have "Le Parfait" jars. While they're pretty and really cute for desserts or original appetizers, they're not quite as convenient for lemonade or flowers 😉
Love all the ideas! I save old pickle jars for projects too!! And yes, Hobby Lobby has reminded me Christmas is around the corner…all the goodies are already out! LOL
Love Mason Jars too! They definitely add a lot of charm. And Christmas! I'm so excited. I started making my Christmas list this week…I've never done it this early, but I think I'm just tired of the heat.
I have about 8 mason jars in my cabinet at home and that is ALL i drink out of! My husband doesn't understand it but I grew up drinking tea from Mason Jars and LOVE IT!
I love all of these ideas! I have been saving up/collecting mason jars to make lanterns out of. After seeing the candle pictures you posted, I cannot wait to get started on the project 🙂
I buy them by the case from the grocery store or WalMart. They ARE our standard drinking glasses. If they break, I can always get more that go with my set. 🙂
I use them as giveaway vases when I take someone flowers. I tie jute around.
So many fun uses for mason jars! The snow globe is cute. I can't believe that Christmas is only 4 months away! I was in Michaels and they were already puttting our Christmas things.
I LOVE Mason Jars. I swapped out my glassware in favor of them a while back. They're so easy to drink out of and look super cute. I use them all over, even as a pen holder on my desk.
I am truly addicted to mason jars! I'm diligently grabbing them from Goodwills & thrift stores! I've got crayons in some & candles in others. And even more candles 'stuck' in others. Them puppies ain't comin' out but I refuse to trash my mason jars! Ha! 🙂
