Are you ready for a super quick and easy DIY project? A faux hydrangea floral wreath is in order! I made it with just a couple of inexpensive items and it took about 15 minutes to put together.
You can find the flowers at any craft store, Hobby Lobby sells them often for 50% off. I used 9 flowers, 3 of each color, and a large straw wreath form. A wire cutter was used to cut the stems and scissors to make a small hole in the wreath form for where the flowers would go. The steps are illustrated below.
Wreaths are beautiful hanging on doors and mirrors. I found the burlap and satin ribbon at Hobby Lobby.
Or you can attach the wreath form directly to a rubber wreath hanger that affixes directly to the mirror. I used one like this. I’m always surprised at how well they hold the wreath.
Are you up for making your own wreath this season?
Hi friends! The good thing about a long weekend is a short work week! Am I right?! We’re already a hop, skip and a jump from another weekend! Woo hoo!…
Good morning friends! I’m the proud mama of a 10 year-old today! Sweet baby James isn’t much a baby anymore. In fact, he’s growing up to be a thoughtful, kind…
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!
Good morning friends! Are you knee deep in Thanksgiving prep? We’re keeping it low key, so not too much to do. This will be a very small Thanksgiving, but still…

What is a rubber wreath hanger?
I'm inspired Megan! 🙂 I love yours – especially the idea of hanging it on a mirror. Just posted my fall mantel today on my blog.
I love this Megan. I am trying to make one myself this week. I am dragging my feet with fall decor. THanks for the inspiration.
