POV: you just found the best thing to do in Hilton POV: you just found the best thing to do in Hilton Head Island ⛵️✨

Yesterday we went on our very first sailboat with @islandheadsailing and it was seriously one of the most fun experiences we’ve had on the island! Even though it was freezing (I was fighting for my life on the way back 🥶🤣), the views of the water were absolutely unreal.

We booked their Hilton Head brunch sail, and it came with the cutest spread of brunch goodies to enjoy while cruising, 10/10 recommend. Between the ocean breeze, peaceful vibes, and stunning scenery, this is hands down a must-do in Hilton Head Island.

If you’re planning a trip here and looking for unique things to do, add this to your list ASAP 🙌🏻 #sailing #hiltonhead #sailboatlife #sailboating #sailboatlove
If you’re looking for the best lunch in Hilton Hea If you’re looking for the best lunch in Hilton Head Island, RUN to Java Burrito Company 🌯🔥

We ate here yesterday and I’m not exaggerating when I say it might be the best burrito I’ve ever had. I ordered the steak burrito (10/10), and don’t even get me started on the chips + queso… I could’ve eaten 5 baskets 🤣

Everything is super fresh, and you can fully customize your burrito, bowl, tacos, or quesadilla exactly how you want. PLUS they have a full coffee bar, so it’s also one of the best breakfast spots on Hilton Head too ☕️

Yes, there might be a wait… but trust me, it’s 100% worth it.

Save this for your next Hilton Head trip 👇 #hiltonheadfood #hiltonheadfoodie #hiltonheadeats #javaburrito #hiltonhead
One place you absolutely HAVE to eat at in Hilton One place you absolutely HAVE to eat at in Hilton Head Island is The Salty Dog Cafe 🌴🐾 It’s one of the most iconic waterfront restaurants on the island, and for good reason!

We biked over for lunch one day (highly recommend doing this if you’re exploring Hilton Head by bike 🚲), and it ended up being our favorite meal of the trip. The seafood was incredible, I got the crab legs and they were SO good, but honestly the entire menu looked amazing 🤤

Between the stunning marina views, laid-back coastal vibes, and all the fun gift shops (yes, we grabbed way too much merch 😂), this spot is such a fun experience from start to finish.

If you’re looking for the best restaurants in Hilton Head or a must-try waterfront dining spot, add this to your list ASAP!

Have you ever been to The Salty Dog Cafe?! 👇#thesaltydog #thesaltydogcafe #hiltonheadeats #hiltonhead #hiltonheadisland
Harbour Town in Hilton Head Island is a MUST-DO wh Harbour Town in Hilton Head Island is a MUST-DO when you’re visiting! We toured the iconic Harbour Town Lighthouse and the views were absolutely unreal—360° panoramic views of the marina, island, and coastline for just $7.50 🙌 Totally worth it!

Afterward, we explored all the cute shops, waterfront restaurants, and watched the massive yachts roll in (honestly could do that all day 😍). If you’re a golf fan, you’ll love that RBC Heritage is right around the corner—we even caught them setting up for it!

Save this for your trip because Harbour Town is one of the best things to do in Hilton Head Island 🌴✨ #harbourtown #harbourtownlighthouse #lighthouse #hiltonhead #thingstodoinhiltonhead
We had the best Easter dinner at Benny’s in Hilton We had the best Easter dinner at Benny’s in Hilton Head this past weekend, and I’m still thinking about it 🤤 It was our very first night on the island, and this spot completely set the tone for the trip!

The atmosphere? Absolutely beautiful. Coastal, cozy, and the perfect vibe for a special night out ✨

We started with the hushpuppies and skillet shrimp, and let me tell you… that sauce was SO good I could’ve drank it 😂

For dinner, I had the seared mahi mahi and my husband ordered the swordfish, both were insanely fresh and full of flavor 🙌

And don’t even get me started on dessert… the key lime cheesecake with toasted meringue?? UNREAL 🤤🍰

If you’re planning a trip to Hilton Head Island or looking for the best restaurants in Hilton Head, you have to add Benny’s to your list! #hiltonheadislandsc #hiltonhead #hiltonheadisland #hiltonheadrestaurants #explorehiltonhead

These realistic faux hanging ferns just saved my porch decor AND my energy levels 🙌 I found them at @loweshomeimprovement and I’m officially converted, they look so real without the daily watering, mess, or stress.

As someone with limited energy, switching from real plants to low-maintenance artificial greenery has been a game changer. My porch still feels lush, cozy, and Pinterest-worthy… just without the upkeep 💚

Now I’m curious, are you team real plants 🌱 or team faux plants 🌿?!

Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March doe Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March does. 💛

For me (and millions of women) this is a daily battle, not just a “month.” Chronic pain, endless doctor visits, tests, and constantly fighting just to be heard… it’s exhausting, and it’s real.

This month has been especially hard. So many appointments, so many unknowns, and the emotional toll of advocating for your own health over and over again. Women’s pain deserves to be taken seriously the first time, not after we’ve fought to prove it.

I’ll keep using my voice, no matter how small this platform may feel, to raise awareness for endometriosis, chronic illness, and the realities of women’s healthcare. Because change only happens when we keep speaking up.

April brings a new chapter for me- my surgery is finally coming, and I’m holding onto hope that relief is on the other side. 🤍

But please remember: just because Endometriosis Awareness Month is over doesn’t mean this disease disappears. It affects millions of women every single day.

Let’s keep the conversation going. Let’s keep advocating. And let’s keep fighting for better care. 💛 #endometriosis #endometriosissupport #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosisawarenessmonth #endometriosisfighter

Creating a Romantic Winter Centerpiece

If you’ve hung around here long enough, then you know I love simple DIYs and easy ways to change out my decor from season to season. So today I wanted to share all about my Winter tablescape I have created and mainly all about my centerpiece.

I didn’t change too much after Christmas and the total cost for this project was under $25 for me to create so it was very reasonable.

It also did not take me very long to style and I was able to do one of my favorite things- go thrifting to find all the pieces I needed! Keep on reading to see just how I styled everything and see where I bought everything that I needed for this project as well.

Romantic Winter Centerpiece
Loving the brass candlesticks and the orange slices together!

Brass Candlesticks

So I think the real showstopper here is the antique brass candlesticks I found while out thrifting after Christmas. I found one and was inspired to find a few more. After the first one, I was hooked.

I only put a total of three in my dough bowl because that was really all that I could fit at the bottom part before it started to curve upward.

And plus, grouping things in threes is always preferred in interior design anyway so it worked out perfectly. I got these pretty little things for $6 and under a piece so that was really my only cost to this project besides getting the candles to go in them as well. I got the candles from Michaels and they were under $2 a piece as well so it was very cheap!

I found the candlesticks from the Antique Tobacco Barn. It’s a local antique store near me and it was even feature in The Magnolia Journal before! So it’s kinda a big deal!

It’s in an old barn and there are over 75 antique dealers there to shop from. I do love going there often to browse around, but I will say their prices most of the time are on the higher end so I don’t purchase too many pieces from there.

I have better luck in Tennessee, as you probably remember from my last blog post (click here in case you missed it). But every now and then I will find a great deal (like these candlesticks) and I just can’t resist!

If you’re ever in the Asheville area, then I do recommend that you go and check them out since you never know what you can find! I will put all their information below for you just in case you’re interested in taking a trip there sometime:

Cozy Romantic Winter Tablescape

Garland and Trees

Another main thing I kept in my centerpiece was the garland I used at Christmastime. It isn’t very Christmasey at all and it doesn’t have any red to it, so I figured I could leave it out for winter. Plus, it has cute little pinecones on it too so it is definitely perfect for winter.

I also took apart my dried orange garland and laid the slices on top of the garland for more texture and warmth. Another thing I did was I left out those two little tabletop trees that I got from the Target Dollar Spot a few years ago.

They just have pinecones on them as well so I felt as though I could get by a little longer with those displayed. Both the trees and garland transition perfectly into winter after Christmas.

New Napkins

The last thing I added to this Romantic Winter Centerpiece of mine were new napkins. But I didn’t spend a dime on them because I won a giveaway on Instagram! Yay me, that really never happens!

But I got a set of six rustic looking napkins from Piper Classics. They have the cutest farmhouse and primitive style decor so if you haven’t heard of them before, you should definitely go check them out. You can find the napkins I used for this tablescape here if you’re interested.

New Napkins
Here is a close up shot of my new napkins! Aren’t they so pretty?!

Well, that’s everything that I did in order to create my romantic looking winter centerpiece. I am very happy with how it turned out and I will be enjoying it all winter long. What do you guys think?? Let me know below and thanks so much for stopping by!

    Simple DIY’s are so much fun and the best way to change things up from time to time! I didn’t know grouping things in three was preferred in interior design (learn something new every day haha!) but everything in 3’s does look better than 2’s or just 1. I love the little trees on the sides of the center piece, really brings it all together – Target usually has something that can last through several seasons which is great!

    YAY – massive congratulations on winning a giveaway on Instagram! Finding the right set of napkins is always a challenge to match the whole aesthetic/theme but those napkins work perfectly!

    I always admired centerpieces. They make a big difference when it comes to decor. I love the addition of the dried oranges. Adds a nice subtle scent. It is great that it is easy to put this set together! Everything together makes a huge difference. Thanks for sharing!

    This centrepiece is so gorgeous! I’ve always wanted to create my own decor and I love the idea of focusing on a seasonal one. I bet an Autumnal one would be so beautiful!

      Yes! I loved it for Autumn. I filled it up with some pumpkins that I painted and it was beautiful. Can’t wait to do it again this year!

POV: you just found the best thing to do in Hilton POV: you just found the best thing to do in Hilton Head Island ⛵️✨

Yesterday we went on our very first sailboat with @islandheadsailing and it was seriously one of the most fun experiences we’ve had on the island! Even though it was freezing (I was fighting for my life on the way back 🥶🤣), the views of the water were absolutely unreal.

We booked their Hilton Head brunch sail, and it came with the cutest spread of brunch goodies to enjoy while cruising, 10/10 recommend. Between the ocean breeze, peaceful vibes, and stunning scenery, this is hands down a must-do in Hilton Head Island.

If you’re planning a trip here and looking for unique things to do, add this to your list ASAP 🙌🏻 #sailing #hiltonhead #sailboatlife #sailboating #sailboatlove
If you’re looking for the best lunch in Hilton Hea If you’re looking for the best lunch in Hilton Head Island, RUN to Java Burrito Company 🌯🔥

We ate here yesterday and I’m not exaggerating when I say it might be the best burrito I’ve ever had. I ordered the steak burrito (10/10), and don’t even get me started on the chips + queso… I could’ve eaten 5 baskets 🤣

Everything is super fresh, and you can fully customize your burrito, bowl, tacos, or quesadilla exactly how you want. PLUS they have a full coffee bar, so it’s also one of the best breakfast spots on Hilton Head too ☕️

Yes, there might be a wait… but trust me, it’s 100% worth it.

Save this for your next Hilton Head trip 👇 #hiltonheadfood #hiltonheadfoodie #hiltonheadeats #javaburrito #hiltonhead
One place you absolutely HAVE to eat at in Hilton One place you absolutely HAVE to eat at in Hilton Head Island is The Salty Dog Cafe 🌴🐾 It’s one of the most iconic waterfront restaurants on the island, and for good reason!

We biked over for lunch one day (highly recommend doing this if you’re exploring Hilton Head by bike 🚲), and it ended up being our favorite meal of the trip. The seafood was incredible, I got the crab legs and they were SO good, but honestly the entire menu looked amazing 🤤

Between the stunning marina views, laid-back coastal vibes, and all the fun gift shops (yes, we grabbed way too much merch 😂), this spot is such a fun experience from start to finish.

If you’re looking for the best restaurants in Hilton Head or a must-try waterfront dining spot, add this to your list ASAP!

Have you ever been to The Salty Dog Cafe?! 👇#thesaltydog #thesaltydogcafe #hiltonheadeats #hiltonhead #hiltonheadisland
Harbour Town in Hilton Head Island is a MUST-DO wh Harbour Town in Hilton Head Island is a MUST-DO when you’re visiting! We toured the iconic Harbour Town Lighthouse and the views were absolutely unreal—360° panoramic views of the marina, island, and coastline for just $7.50 🙌 Totally worth it!

Afterward, we explored all the cute shops, waterfront restaurants, and watched the massive yachts roll in (honestly could do that all day 😍). If you’re a golf fan, you’ll love that RBC Heritage is right around the corner—we even caught them setting up for it!

Save this for your trip because Harbour Town is one of the best things to do in Hilton Head Island 🌴✨ #harbourtown #harbourtownlighthouse #lighthouse #hiltonhead #thingstodoinhiltonhead
We had the best Easter dinner at Benny’s in Hilton We had the best Easter dinner at Benny’s in Hilton Head this past weekend, and I’m still thinking about it 🤤 It was our very first night on the island, and this spot completely set the tone for the trip!

The atmosphere? Absolutely beautiful. Coastal, cozy, and the perfect vibe for a special night out ✨

We started with the hushpuppies and skillet shrimp, and let me tell you… that sauce was SO good I could’ve drank it 😂

For dinner, I had the seared mahi mahi and my husband ordered the swordfish, both were insanely fresh and full of flavor 🙌

And don’t even get me started on dessert… the key lime cheesecake with toasted meringue?? UNREAL 🤤🍰

If you’re planning a trip to Hilton Head Island or looking for the best restaurants in Hilton Head, you have to add Benny’s to your list! #hiltonheadislandsc #hiltonhead #hiltonheadisland #hiltonheadrestaurants #explorehiltonhead
Come explore Savannah with us in under 24 hours! 😂 Come explore Savannah with us in under 24 hours! 😂✨ The ultimate quick weekend getaway packed with charm, history, and the cutest downtown vibes.

We squeezed in a spontaneous trip after an epic night at an Eric Church concert and before heading to Hilton Head Island… and honestly, it was SO worth it.

From strolling the historic downtown streets to shopping, eating, and soaking in all the southern charm, Savannah is seriously picture-perfect. We explored the iconic Riverwalk, admired the architecture, and of course had to stop by the stunning @jwmarriottsavannah Plant Riverside District to check out the fossils, geodes, and one-of-a-kind lobby 😍

We stayed at @thedraytonhotel which was the PERFECT location for walking everywhere (highly recommend if you’re planning a Savannah trip 👀), and wrapped up the night with dinner at @circa1875savannah 🤌✨

Hot take: we had the BEST time, but as die-hard Charleston lovers… Charleston still has our hearts 💛

Now it’s time to unwind and recharge in Hilton Head 🌊☀️

You’re obsessed with hanging ferns… until it’s tim You’re obsessed with hanging ferns… until it’s time to water them 😅🌿

These realistic faux hanging ferns just saved my porch decor AND my energy levels 🙌 I found them at @loweshomeimprovement and I’m officially converted, they look so real without the daily watering, mess, or stress.

As someone with limited energy, switching from real plants to low-maintenance artificial greenery has been a game changer. My porch still feels lush, cozy, and Pinterest-worthy… just without the upkeep 💚

Now I’m curious, are you team real plants 🌱 or team faux plants 🌿?!

Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March doe Endometriosis awareness doesn’t end when March does. 💛

For me (and millions of women) this is a daily battle, not just a “month.” Chronic pain, endless doctor visits, tests, and constantly fighting just to be heard… it’s exhausting, and it’s real.

This month has been especially hard. So many appointments, so many unknowns, and the emotional toll of advocating for your own health over and over again. Women’s pain deserves to be taken seriously the first time, not after we’ve fought to prove it.

I’ll keep using my voice, no matter how small this platform may feel, to raise awareness for endometriosis, chronic illness, and the realities of women’s healthcare. Because change only happens when we keep speaking up.

April brings a new chapter for me- my surgery is finally coming, and I’m holding onto hope that relief is on the other side. 🤍

But please remember: just because Endometriosis Awareness Month is over doesn’t mean this disease disappears. It affects millions of women every single day.

Let’s keep the conversation going. Let’s keep advocating. And let’s keep fighting for better care. 💛 #endometriosis #endometriosissupport #endometriosiswarrior #endometriosisawarenessmonth #endometriosisfighter

My husband has officially entered his ✨ChatGPT era✨ but instead of using it for work or research, he’s out here editing our cats’ photos like a full-time meme creator 🤣 And honestly? I’m not mad about it. The results are hilarious, way too good, and guaranteed to make my day every single time.

So of course I had to share these edited cat pics with y’all because they’re too funny to keep to myself 😻

Time to give this old planter a refresh, and I’m OBSESSED with how this bonsai planter makeover turned out 😍 I grabbed everything I needed from @loweshomeimprovement to create this peaceful, zen-inspired plant moment for my porch

There’s just something about spring gardening and getting your hands in the dirt that feels so therapeutic… even if we are still risking a late frost here in NC 😅🌱 But I couldn’t resist starting just a little early

And of course, little Miss Riley had to supervise (aka approve) the final result 🐱💚

If you’re ready to refresh your planters, start your spring garden, or create your own tranquil bonsai setup, this is your sign ✨
