Spring Happenings—and Giveaway!

If you read my blog, you know that I have an adorable little Shih Tzu named Mochi! He is my buddy! I just got him a haircut, and he is looking super dapper! I love how clean he is now! The groomer even brushed his teeth! But anyone who has a dog knows they can be messy! For instance, when he goes on walks, he loves when we go to this one wooded area with a stream and gets into everything! Sometimes I have to brush dirt and leaves off him, which can get my hands quite messy. So I'm glad I have NOWATA—I bring a tube of it on our walks. My kids are about to graduate from college next month, Continue reading...

What Are the Key Principles of Designing a Minimalist Bedroom?

written by Lauren

How to design a minimalist Scandinavian bedroom.

Designing a minimalist bedroom is centered around the principles of simplicity and functionality, aiming to create a space that embodies calm and serenity. The aesthetic is defined by clean lines, a monochromatic color palette, and the thoughtful use of texture and materials to convey a sense of tranquillity. In this design approach, every element serves a purpose, and there is an emphasis on the quality and craftsmanship of the pieces that are chosen. Essential furniture such as a modern ottoman bed provides both comfort and practical storage solutions without compromising the room’s airy and Continue reading...

Pet-Friendly Hardwood Floors

written by Lauren

I've been wanting to install pet-friendly hardwood floors in our home, especially since we got our Shih Tzu pup about 5 years ago. We've been good at keeping our carpets pretty clean since we moved into our home about 20 years ago, but the carpets have gotten significantly less clean since we got our dog—it's very hard to keep carpeting looking good when you are a dog owner! But I've been noticing lately that there are many new wood flooring options on the market now that would be perfect for my dog-friendly home! Engineered Hardwood Floors for Pets I have been reading a lot about Continue reading...

written by Lauren

Fluffy new Therapedia pillows

Thanks to Therapedic for sponsoring this post. I received free product in exchange for my review. For me, nothing is as luxurious and comfortable as settling into bed at night with crisp, clean sheets and big fluffy pillows. So I was happy when my husband and I added new oversized Whisper by Therapedic Cooling Foam Cluster Pillows, available at BigLots, to our bed recently. Amazingly, the pillows sell for less than $20 each—they feel like they should cost a lot more. New Therapedic Pillows I used to love snuggling under LOTS of blankets at night, but lately I often find myself more Continue reading...
