Stop throwing away your pretty candle jars! 🕯️ He Stop throwing away your pretty candle jars! 🕯️

Here’s the easiest hack for removing leftover candle wax from antique jars, mugs, and vintage vessels so you can reuse them! 🤍

I found this adorable antique candle from Antique Candle Co., and one of my favorite things about it is that once the candle is finished, you can repurpose the vintage vessel instead of throwing it away.

Here’s how I remove the leftover wax:

🕯️ Pour boiling water into the candle vessel
🕯️ Let it sit for several hours until the wax solidifies and floats to the top
🕯️ Scoop out the hardened wax (I save mine to use in my wax warmer!)
🕯️ Remove the leftover sticky wick with a little Goo Gone
🕯️ Wash the vessel thoroughly and you’re done!

Such an easy candle jar cleaning hack and the perfect way to upcycle antique jars, vintage candle vessels, and pretty containers into something you can actually use again! ♻️

Have you tried this candle wax removal hack before?!

Y’all, I am SO tired of this 😩💔 I woke up this mor Y’all, I am SO tired of this 😩💔 I woke up this morning not feeling great, but like I always do, I tried to push through it. I was sitting at my laptop doing a little work when suddenly my hands started shaking so badly that I couldn’t control what I was doing. My HR spiked up to 180 and I threw up as well. And honestly? I’m frustrated, scared, and completely exhausted from not knowing WHY this is happening.

I finally got my MRI results back on Friday, and fortunately (but also unfortunately), they didn’t find anything major. And I’ll admit it… I bawled. 😭

Of course I don’t want something seriously wrong with me. But at the same time, I desperately want a diagnosis. I want answers. After dealing with unexplained symptoms for so long, getting “normal” test results can almost feel like another dead end.

My neurologist had mentioned the possibility of Chiari malformation, so I honestly thought that might finally explain some of my symptoms. Now that the MRI didn’t show that, I feel like I’m back at square one.

Because this isn’t normal. 😩

What am I supposed to do for work when my hands are shaking like this?! I was working as a dental hygienist, and can you imagine trying to clean someone’s teeth while your hands are trembling uncontrollably? It’s terrifying to even think about.
My short-term disability still hasn’t been approved either, so I’m sitting here wondering what I’m supposed to do next while my health and career feel completely uncertain.

I have another appointment with my doctor on Friday, so I’m trying to remind myself that this is just another step in the process. But it feels like it’s been nothing but waiting for appointments, waiting for tests, waiting for results… and still no answers.

This has truly been the hardest season of my life.

I’m trying so hard to trust God through all of this, even when I don’t understand what He’s doing. 🙏🏻 It’s just really hard when you don’t know what your future, your health, or even your career is going to look like.

So if you’ve been following along through this health journey, please keep praying that I finally get some answers. 🤍

When I spotted these plain little white ceramic gh When I spotted these plain little white ceramic ghosts at the Target Dollar Spot, I knew they had SO much potential! Instead of leaving them plain, I gave them a quick makeover and turned them into the cutest antiqued gold Halloween decor that looks way more expensive than it actually is! 🙌

Here’s how I did it:

👻 First, I sprayed the ceramic ghosts with black spray paint.
✨ Then I lightly layered metallic gold spray paint over the top. I didn’t want them super shiny—I was going for that aged, antique gold pottery look.
🖤 Finally, I used a little black acrylic paint to make their eyes stand out more.

And that’s it! Such an easy DIY Halloween decor makeover, and I think they turned out ADORABLE! 🥹

I love finding inexpensive Target Dollar Spot finds and giving them a high-end look with a little DIY magic.

Would you believe these started as plain white ghosts from Target?! 👻

It’s officially been ONE FULL YEAR since my health It’s officially been ONE FULL YEAR since my health started spiraling. 💔

A year ago today, I was at work when my heart rate suddenly spiked so high that I became extremely dizzy and shaky and genuinely thought I was going to pass out. I went to the ER afterward just to be safe, and of course… everything looked “normal.” My EKG was normal. They could see that my heart rate had spiked, but they couldn’t tell me why.

Little did I know that one scary episode would turn into a daily battle with unexplained symptoms. Fast forward one year and I’m dealing with even worse symptoms, including frequent heart rate spikes, dizziness, shakiness/tremors, fatigue, and so much more. And the hardest part? I STILL DON’T HAVE ANSWERS.

I can’t even work anymore. I’ve spent months waiting for appointments, getting test after test, waiting for results, and hoping that this will finally be the thing that explains what’s happening… only to end up with more questions.

And honestly? I feel crazy sometimes. Not because I think this is all in my head, but because it’s incredibly hard to keep telling people how badly you feel when test after test doesn’t give you an answer. 😭

It’s been a really rough week emotionally, and I’m having a hard time dealing with all of this. I feel like I’m constantly taking one step forward and two steps back. How long am I going to have to wait before I finally have answers? How much longer until I can start feeling like myself and actually live my life again?

I’m so tired of waiting. I’m tired of being passed from appointment to appointment. I’m tired of having no real help in the meantime. And I’m tired of feeling like I have to fight so hard just to be heard. 💔 I’m trying so hard to let go, trust God, and believe that there’s a reason for all of this… but y’all, IS IT HARD. 😢

I’m praying that after this past year, I’m finally getting closer to some answers. Until then, I’m just taking it one day at a time. If you’re also living with unexplained symptoms, chronic illness, POTS symptoms, tremors, dizziness, heart rate spikes, or a long diagnostic journey, please know you’re not alone. ❤️Here’s to hoping year two looks very different from year one!

Homemade Easter Wood Crafts

Y’all know I am all about seasonal decor, and I love to make my own when possible. So today I thought it would be fun to share some homemade Easter wood crafts with you!

I absolutely love making wood crafts especially, and then painting them to my desired colors as well! You can really get crafty and creative personalize things to exactly how you want in your own home when you make your own decor.

It’s a great creative outlet for me and so much fun to make! I will be sharing some fun examples of Easter wood crafts below so be sure you check them out and see if there is anything you want to try to make as well. Hopefully, it will inspire you to create your own decor sometime too! 

Homemade Easter Wood Crafts For Porch

This post also contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission off anything you purchase through here, at no additional cost to you. Please read my full disclosure policy for more details.

Materials Needed For Homemade Easter Wood Crafts

So for today’s project, I am going to be using my handy dandy xTool p2 machine to make this super adorable Easter wooden sign.

To cut out the sign, I had a leftover piece of wood from another project. It was a 3mm basswood plywood piece. Which is my favorite type of wood to cut in my laser machine.

Cutting Out Easter Sign

It usually makes perfect wood cutouts, and since it’s not very thick, I don’t have to make multiple passes at it either. I also chose a cute Easter SVG sign file that I saw on Etsy as well.

Like I mentioned before, I don’t like to create my own files. And a lot of time they are super cheap to purchase off of Etsy, so I just do that instead. I will link the exact file I used below for you too!

Once everything is cut out, I will also be using my favorite glue, B-7000 to glue everything together. But, you could also use whatever wood glue you have on hand too.

I just like using the B-7000 because it gives you a little wiggle room if you mess up. It doesn’t automatically set up, which I love.

You could also use a hot glue gun too if you would rather for this. To paint all the wood slices and pieces, I used my favorite acrylic paint pens as well. It’s nice to have all these materials on hand because I usually end up using them over and over for different projects just like this!

But, you can also use whatever craft paint you prefer. I just think using a paint pen is easier when dealing with small, delicate pieces like this.

If you remember my DIY Easter tiered tray signs from last year, this project is very similar to that! Only slightly larger!

How to Make Your Own DIY Easter Signs

Once you’ve found an SVG file that you love, whether you choose the same one I did or a different one, you can cut it out using your laser machine.

You may think that this isn’t a simple Easter craft because of the laser, but trust me, once you start using the laser more and more, you will love it. I was definitely intimidated at first using mine, but now I am obsessed with it.

You can make so many cute Easter crafts, just like this one, once you get the hang of it. And once your skill levels increase, you can even make more complicated DIY projects too! And you don’t even need a miter saw or any other complicated power tool to do so.

Before Finishing Easter Sign

After everything is cut out, discard the scrap wood pieces and remove Easter sign pieces from the machine. For the background of the sign itself, I decided to use some wood stain.

And of course, I used my favorite Early American Stain for this. Then, for the lettering and the background of the wooden bunnies, I wanted to use white paint.

Making Easter Porch Sign

And for the other adorable bunnies, I decided to go with different pastel colors. I love how these Easter bunnies look just like the Peeps bunnies too! 

Putting Together The Bunny Signs

Once all the paint and wood stain is dried, you can now assemble the sign together. Like I mentioned above, I use the B-7000 to glue all the pieces together.

DIY Easter Porch Sign

You could also add in some greenery, Easter eggs, or a bow on the top of the sign to make it more like an Easter wreath too.

This finished piece would look perfect hanging on your front door as well. But, it’s the perfect project if you want to add in a little bit of your own flair when it comes to your home decor.

You can customize it however you want and use whatever colors you want. Which is always so much fun!

Hello Peeps Easter Sign

Enjoy These Homemade Easter Wood Crafts! 

Well, I hope you enjoyed this easy project on how to make your own Easter decorations. And I hope it inspired you to try it out yourself as well.

No matter how you are spending your Easter celebrations, doing some spring crafts around the home is always a good idea!
