Hi everyone! Soft Surroundings is celebrating their 11th year here in St. Louis at the Boulevard store (which is across from the Gallera). They also have 39 other locations across the country. They sent me this black velvet moto jacket to wear at my favorite St. Louis spot. Velvet is on trend this fall and Soft Surroundings has a lot of velvet merchandise along with other trendy and fashionable pieces, accessories, beauty and home decor products. They design most of their apparel and home products in-house and are known for their globally inspired designs and extremely soft fabrics. Why not take time out for yourself to look and feel your best?

There are many locations in St. Louis that I love, but I would have to say that the Grand Basin in front of the St. Louis Art Museum is my absolute favorite. I have a lot of fond memories of my husband and I paddle boating in the Grand Basin at sunset with a picnic dinner, taking the children to the art museum for Art Sundays... Fair St. Louis... the 1904 World's Fair was here. The St. Louis Art Museum and Grand Basin are in the beautiful Forest Park St. Louis (which was even voted best city park in 2016 by US Today!). I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I did visiting this area on a gorgeous fall day!

5 Ways to Bring Spring Into Your Home

The weather here in St. Louis has gone from 70 degrees to tornado watches/warnings and now to possible snow/ice this weekend. Whew! I am SO ready for Spring and for Daylight Saving Time. Today I'm sharing with you how to bring Spring to your home sooner with 5 Ways To Bring Spring Into Your Home . Bringing a little Spring into your home is rather easy. You don't need to change up your entire decor, at least not yet... What I try to do is add little touches here and there. 1. Spring Wreaths One way that I bring Spring into my home is by placing a Spring wreath on my front door or on some of the interior doors in the home. My absolute favorite Spring wreath that I've done is my Split Pea Wreath below, but I'm currently working on a Tulip wreath which I'll be sharing in a couple of weeks! I'm also sharing a couple of other Spring wreaths that I've made below: Split Pea Wreath with Burlap Bow Some other Spring wreaths I've designed:   Simple Spring Hoop Wrea...

Thankful Tree #PAWsomeGifts #ClausAndPaws

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser, MARS Incorporated. All opinions are mine alone. #PAWsomeGifts #ClausAndPaws #CollectiveBias This Thanksgiving, I wanted to do something special for our cat, Rose. I have a Thanksgiving light up tree that I put up every year, but I wanted to turn it into a 'thankful tree' to appreciate our cat. I created some leaves for the tree that we could hang up on it every time Rose did something good. If Rose earned 5 leaves on the tree, we would fill her  Temptations® Snacky Mouse  with her favorite treats from MARS Pet at Walmart . If she was bad, we would take a leaf away... Rose tends to 'sneak' into our garage at times when I'm loading it up with the kids backpacks in the morning or unloading groceries. So, the thankful tree is to encourage good behavior and to show her that we appreciate her and are thankful for her good behavior! Shop for Rewards for your Cat   I visited my local Walmart store...
