If you deal with POTS symptoms, chronic dehydratio If you deal with POTS symptoms, chronic dehydration, or heat intolerance, then you know the struggle is REAL. 😅 I feel like I’m constantly trying to stay hydrated between drinking water, adding electrolytes, and hoping my body decides to cooperate for once.

But if I’m being honest, no amount of water hydrates my soul quite like the ocean does. 🌊💙 There is just something about sitting by the beach, listening to the waves, and feeling the salt air that instantly makes me feel better.

Now, does having POTS-like symptoms mean I don’t tolerate the summer heat very well? Absolutely. 😂 But that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make for a little beach therapy. You’ll find me parked in the water, sipping my electrolytes, pretending I’m a mermaid, and refusing to leave until further notice. 🤣

The ocean may not cure my dehydration, but it sure does wonders for my mental health. 🌊☀️

Anyone else feel like the beach is the best kind of therapy?

And also, my cute swimsuit is on sale for just $24 today too! So if you’re in need of a new swimsuit for summer, check it out! 😉

Plot twist: Riley’s biological mom is still part o Plot twist: Riley’s biological mom is still part of the family too! 😹🐾

A few years ago on Valentine’s Day morning, my mom discovered a mama cat and her three kittens on her front porch. As a lifelong cat lover, there was absolutely no way I wasn’t bringing one of those sweet rescue kittens home once she was old enough. And that’s how Riley became part of our family. ❤️

Fast forward to today, and Riley has grown into the funniest, sassiest, most personality-filled cat I’ve ever had. She’s definitely not a lap cat, and she makes you work for every ounce of attention and affection, but somehow that just makes me love her even more. 😂

The best part? My mom ended up keeping Riley’s mom, Smoke, while finding loving homes for all the other kittens. So Riley’s mama is still around, and we get to see her from time to time. 🥹🐱

It feels like this whole rescue cat story was just meant to be. ❤️

And let’s not forget the elite summer activity: the post-lunch poolside nap. 😂

These are the simple summer moments I look forward to all year long, and honestly, I wish every Friday could look like this!

As someone who deals with chronic lower back pain and everyday stress, I count down the days until my next appointment!

Sure, it’s not a permanent fix, but even a little relief can make a huge difference. I always leave feeling more relaxed, less tense, and ready to take on life again (or at least survive another work week 😜).

If you’ve ever struggled with chronic pain, muscle tension, or stress, you know how amazing that post-massage feeling is!

So tell me… are you a massage person too, or do you prefer other self-care treatments? 👇

And let me tell you… this pepper was DELICIOUS! 🙌 Now I’m anxiously waiting for our cucumbers, squash, and tomatoes to really start producing. There’s just something so exciting about watching a vegetable garden grow and finally getting to enjoy the fruits (and veggies!) of your labor.

After a LOT of fluffing, shaping, and styling, though, these faux hanging ferns turned out so good! I love using artificial hanging baskets on our porch because they’re completely low-maintenance, stay green year-round, and don’t require me to climb a ladder every few days to water them. As someone who’s vertically challenged, that’s a major win. 🤣

If you’re looking for realistic faux outdoor plants, easy porch decorating ideas, or low-maintenance outdoor decor, I highly recommend giving these a try!

I’m especially excited that we finally got our flower beds refreshed and ready for the season! 🌸🐦 The colorful blooms have already started attracting hummingbirds, and watching them dart around the flowers from inside the house each morning has quickly become one of my favorite parts of the day.

Between the front porch decor, blooming flowers, and warm summer sunshine, home feels extra sweet right now. ❤️

Easy Fall Centerpiece

It’s not too early to start planning for fall decor right?! I hope not, because I have already started! I just can’t help myself. I love fall decor so much and it is my favorite season- next to Christmas of course. So today I am going to share with you all this easy fall centerpiece idea.

I have mine placed on my coffee table in my living room, but you could easily do this for your dining room table or entryway table too. The possibilities are endless with this centerpiece!

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Easy Fall Centerpiece
I love the color combo to this centerpiece! Also, if you like my rug below, it’s from Boutique Rugs and I shared more about it in my blog post on How to Choose the Right Rug for Your Home!

Materials Needed For Fall Centerpiece:

  • Wooden tray with slots in it (mine is an antique tray and it has six big slots in it, but any kind of tray like that will do)
  • Amber bottles/jars (enough to fill up each slot in your tray)
  • Faux florals (as many as you want to fill your tray. I only did 3 stems instead of all 6, but that’s totally up to you to decide!)
Antique Wooden Tray
Here is how I styled the tray before. I kept it simple for spring/summer with just a few faux terra cotta pots.

Where to Find Materials Needed For the Fall Centerpiece

You may be wondering where you can find all these materials that I have mentioned above. I got lucky and found this beautiful antique wooden tray from a local antique store here in our area.

I constantly leave it on our coffee table and just change out the decor inside from season to season so it was a really great buy for me since I can get so much use out of it.

Close up view of tray for centerpiece
Here you can see all six slots on the tray.

I got the assortment of amber bottles from the dollar spot last year and they were pretty cheap! Only $3 a piece if I remember correctly.

I’m not sure if they will be restocked this year or not, but if not you can always check out your local thrift stores for them. I actually found a few antique amber jars at a flea market down in Tennessee this year and they were all super cheap as well.

Just be sure to shop around your local thrift shops, flea markets, and antique malls to see what you can find!

Wooden Tray for Fall Centerpiece
Another view of the empty tray before I got started styling my easy fall centerpiece.

And the beautiful faux florals stems I found at Kirkland’s last year as well. I only got three stems instead of six total because I thought six would be too much in my tray and it would kinda be distracting when you were watching tv on the couch or something.

But if you found smaller florals/stems, you could definitely put them in all of your amber jars as well. It’s totally up to you and how you want to style it! I am just here to give you a little inspiration!

How to Style The Centerpiece

Now that you have all your materials together, you can arrange your centerpiece anyway you want. I had three taller amber jars and three shorter amber jars total.

So I alternated a tall one and then a short one in each slot to mix up the heights. Then, I placed the faux florals in each tall amber jar.

Materials Needed for Easy Fall Centerpiece
Here is everything you need to get started on your centerpiece.

I have one faux stem on one side of the tray and two stems on the other side.

I think the grouping of three stems is pleasing to the eye. If you’ve been around for any of my styling posts, then you know I always recommend to group things in threes or odd numbers.

I talked about this in my post on How to Style an Entryway Table as well.

Fall Centerpiece in Living Room
I just love how it turned out!

Conclusion

This was such a simple and easy way to style a fall centerpiece. I was instantly drawn to the amber bottles when I first saw them and I knew I wanted to do something special with them for fall decor.

I am so happy with how it turned out and I think it is just the perfect touch! What do you y’all think? Let me know below!

Easy Fall Centerpiece
Pin for later!

    Not sure that I’m ready for fall, but that centerpiece will help to ease into the next season. Thanks for the great idea!

    This is a great idea! I will have to make a smaller version as my table is much more smaller, but I seriously can’t wait to bring out all my fall decor! x

If you deal with POTS symptoms, chronic dehydratio If you deal with POTS symptoms, chronic dehydration, or heat intolerance, then you know the struggle is REAL. 😅 I feel like I’m constantly trying to stay hydrated between drinking water, adding electrolytes, and hoping my body decides to cooperate for once.

But if I’m being honest, no amount of water hydrates my soul quite like the ocean does. 🌊💙 There is just something about sitting by the beach, listening to the waves, and feeling the salt air that instantly makes me feel better.

Now, does having POTS-like symptoms mean I don’t tolerate the summer heat very well? Absolutely. 😂 But that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make for a little beach therapy. You’ll find me parked in the water, sipping my electrolytes, pretending I’m a mermaid, and refusing to leave until further notice. 🤣

The ocean may not cure my dehydration, but it sure does wonders for my mental health. 🌊☀️

Anyone else feel like the beach is the best kind of therapy?

And also, my cute swimsuit is on sale for just $24 today too! So if you’re in need of a new swimsuit for summer, check it out! 😉

AD | If you’ve been seeing those viral courtside-i AD | If you’ve been seeing those viral courtside-inspired t-shirts all over your feed lately, you’re not alone! 🏀 I knew I had to put my own spin on the trend, so I grabbed my @cricut machine and created this custom courtside tee from scratch.

One of my favorite things about Cricut is how easy it makes it to bring creative ideas to life. Whether you’re making custom t-shirts, personalized gifts, home decor, or party projects, the possibilities are endless! And honestly? Making your own shirts is a little addictive once you get started. 😂

I love being able to create something unique that no one else has, and Cricut cuts make the whole process so simple and fun.

Plot twist: Riley’s biological mom is still part o Plot twist: Riley’s biological mom is still part of the family too! 😹🐾

A few years ago on Valentine’s Day morning, my mom discovered a mama cat and her three kittens on her front porch. As a lifelong cat lover, there was absolutely no way I wasn’t bringing one of those sweet rescue kittens home once she was old enough. And that’s how Riley became part of our family. ❤️

Fast forward to today, and Riley has grown into the funniest, sassiest, most personality-filled cat I’ve ever had. She’s definitely not a lap cat, and she makes you work for every ounce of attention and affection, but somehow that just makes me love her even more. 😂

The best part? My mom ended up keeping Riley’s mom, Smoke, while finding loving homes for all the other kittens. So Riley’s mama is still around, and we get to see her from time to time. 🥹🐱

It feels like this whole rescue cat story was just meant to be. ❤️

There’s just something about soaking up a little vitamin D, listening to the water, and completely slowing down for a few hours. And let’s not forget the elite summer activity: the post-lunch poolside nap. 😂

These are the simple summer moments I look forward to all year long, and honestly, I wish every Friday could look like this!

Are you team pool day, beach day, or lake day? ☀️

Last year, my hubby gifted me a monthly massage me Last year, my hubby gifted me a monthly massage membership for my birthday, and honestly, it has been one of the best gifts I’ve ever received. As someone who deals with chronic lower back pain and everyday stress, I count down the days until my next appointment!

Sure, it’s not a permanent fix, but even a little relief can make a huge difference. I always leave feeling more relaxed, less tense, and ready to take on life again (or at least survive another work week 😜).

If you’ve ever struggled with chronic pain, muscle tension, or stress, you know how amazing that post-massage feeling is!

So tell me… are you a massage person too, or do you prefer other self-care treatments? 👇

I proudly present… the most expensive homegrown pe I proudly present… the most expensive homegrown pepper we’ve ever grown. 🌶️🤣

After all the money we’ve spent on raised garden beds, soil, plants, fertilizer, and supplies, this little pepper is basically worth its weight in gold! 😂 But honestly, there’s nothing more rewarding than walking outside and harvesting fresh vegetables from your own backyard garden.

And let me tell you… this pepper was DELICIOUS! 🙌 Now I’m anxiously waiting for our cucumbers, squash, and tomatoes to really start producing. There’s just something so exciting about watching a vegetable garden grow and finally getting to enjoy the fruits (and veggies!) of your labor.

Who else is gardening this year? 🌱 What are you growing, and what’s been your biggest success so far? Drop your garden updates below because I love seeing what everyone is growing! 👇🍅🥒🌶️

POV: You order faux ferns from Amazon thinking the POV: You order faux ferns from Amazon thinking they’ll be ready to hang… and then they show up needing an entire assembly project. 🤣🌿

Apparently, if I had actually read the product description, I would have known that. But who has time for details when you’re busy adding things to your cart? 😂

After a LOT of fluffing, shaping, and styling, though, these faux hanging ferns turned out so good! I love using artificial hanging baskets on our porch because they’re completely low-maintenance, stay green year-round, and don’t require me to climb a ladder every few days to water them. As someone who’s vertically challenged, that’s a major win. 🤣

If you’re looking for realistic faux outdoor plants, easy porch decorating ideas, or low-maintenance outdoor decor, I highly recommend giving these a try!

Would you choose real plants or faux plants for your porch? 🌿👇

But here we are, another workday, another dollar, and we’re just gonna power through and get it done. 💪

Anyone else feel completely wiped out after talking to people all day, or is that just my introvert/neurodivergent brain? 🤪 #workhumor #workingwiththepublic #officehumor #relatablecontent #funnyworkmemes
Happy Sunday, friends! ☀️Sharing a few cozy Sunday Happy Sunday, friends! ☀️Sharing a few cozy Sunday stills of our front porch today because I’m absolutely soaking up this beautiful weather. There’s just something special about slowing down, enjoying some good old-fashioned porch sitting, and taking in the sights and sounds of summer. Anyone else spending time outside today?

I’m especially excited that we finally got our flower beds refreshed and ready for the season! 🌸🐦 The colorful blooms have already started attracting hummingbirds, and watching them dart around the flowers from inside the house each morning has quickly become one of my favorite parts of the day.

Between the front porch decor, blooming flowers, and warm summer sunshine, home feels extra sweet right now. ❤️

Wishing you all a relaxing Sunday filled with sunshine, fresh air, and a little time to enjoy the simple things. #sundaystills #flowerbed #flowerbeds #porchdecor #porchsitting
