Sometimes the smallest gifts carry the biggest mea Sometimes the smallest gifts carry the biggest meaning. 💛

After my endometriosis excision surgery, I treated myself to a special little gift from Kendra Scott. Using their Color Bar, I created a custom yellow necklace because yellow is the official color of Endometriosis Awareness.

This necklace is more than just jewelry. It’s a reminder to keep going on the hard days. To keep sharing my journey with endometriosis, chronic illness, chronic fatigue, and all the invisible struggles that so many women face every day.

If you’ve been following along, you know that surgery hasn’t been the miracle fix I hoped for. I’m still navigating symptoms, fatigue, and recovery. Some days it’s hard to explain just how exhausting chronic illness can be unless you’ve lived it yourself.

But this necklace reminds me that my story matters. It reminds me to continue advocating for better awareness, earlier diagnosis, and more conversations around women’s health. It reminds me to be a voice for those who feel unheard and to keep fighting for a future where endometriosis is taken seriously.

One of the greatest blessings from sharing my journey online has been finding this incredible community. I’ve met so many amazing women who truly understand the challenges of living with endometriosis, POTS-like symptoms, chronic pain, and chronic fatigue. Knowing we’re not alone makes all the difference.

So thank you for continuing to listen, support, and learn alongside me. 💛 I promise to keep showing up, sharing my story, and spreading awareness for the millions of women living with endometriosis.

Be sure to watch until the end because the lip-licking after she spots her “prey” absolutely sends me every time. 💀😂

If you know me, then you know I’m a HUGE Southern If you know me, then you know I’m a HUGE Southern Charm fan. Honestly, watching Bravo reality shows is one of my favorite hobbies, and Craig Conover has always been one of my favorite Bravolebrities! 😂

So when I found out there was a grand reopening event at @sewingdownsouth while we were in Charleston, South Carolina, there was absolutely no way I was missing it. But what made it even better? They were actually filming for Southern Charm while we were there!

As someone who visits Charleston every chance I get and has watched Southern Charm for years, this felt like a total bucket-list moment. So keep your eyes peeled for Season 12… you just might spot me somewhere in the background. 😜

But can we talk about Craig for a second? We’ve met him before, and he is genuinely one of the nicest people. He spends so much time talking with fans, taking photos, signing autographs, and making everyone feel welcome. In a world where celebrity interactions can be hit or miss, he is the real deal.

If you’re planning a Charleston trip, make sure to add Sewing Down South to your itinerary. Whether you’re a Southern Charm fan or just love shopping local, it’s such a fun stop in the heart of downtown Charleston!

Now tell me, who’s your favorite Southern Charm cast member? 👇 #southerncharm #craigconover #sewingdownsouth #realitytvshow #bravotv

Being overly expressive is both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, people always know where they stand with me. On the other hand, it has definitely gotten me into trouble more than once! 🤣

Sometimes I think about Botox, but then I remember I’d probably lose my greatest talent: making faces when people are being ridiculous. 😜 It’s honestly a survival skill at this point.

Thank goodness I wear a mask at work because it hides at least some of my reactions! 😂

Please tell me I’m not the only one whose facial expressions expose every emotion before they even say a word. Drop a 🙋🏼‍♀️ if your face is constantly spilling the tea!

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?

How to Decorate a Bedroom for Christmas

If you’ve been around here long enough, then you know I go all out during the holiday season. I try to deck every room out that I can with Christmas decorations. Not just your typical living room, but even the bedrooms! So I thought it would be fun today to share my ideas on how to decorate a bedroom for Christmas this year. 

Not only do I decorate our master bedroom, but also, the guest bedroom too! My brother comes to stay with us a lot during the this time of year so I like to have the room all full of holiday cheer for him.

And, I love having our master bedroom all decorated to make it more of a winter wonderland in there! There is nothing like watching a Christmas movie in your festive Christmas bedding against the glow of a Christmas tree! It’s my absolute favorite thing!

So keep on reading to see all my Christmas bedroom ideas, as I like to switch things up every couple years. It’s fun to make changes and add things to your decor, but also keep it the same some years as well!

Christmas Bedroom Ideas
Shop this space below:

Christmas Bedding

I think the main thing you need to decorate a Christmas bedroom is some Christmas bedding! And luckily, I found Levtex Home a few years ago, and I completely fell in love with their Christmas bedding! They also have regular everyday bedding too if you’re looking for that as well.

Christmas Wonderland Bedroom
View of Christmas Bedroom

But, in the Christmas spirit, I just can’t pass up a good holiday bed set! Last year, my theme was more red, so I had a beautiful (and reversible!) red and white bedding set! The cool thing was a that you could keep it a little more tame with the white side, as it only had a reindeer pattern on the edge of the quilt.

Christmas Bedroom

Or you could go all out and flip it over and the other side had the whole red reindeer pattern all over it! Talk about festive cheer! This bedding would also be so fun in kids’ bedrooms too!

Close up of Christmas Bedroom

This year, I decided to keep it a little more of a neutral bedroom. Especially since I changed our whole Christmas theme from red to more antique gold. I got a beautiful white bedding set with Christmas trees quilted in.

They aren’t overly noticeable so it is the perfect hint of Christmas in an otherwise white bedroom. So if you don’t want to be too over the top, this set would be perfect for you! I think the focal point to this bedding set are the beautiful throw pillows. Which feature a silver and gold pattern of reindeer! 

And like I mentioned above, you can’t leave out the guest room! Again, I have a really fun and cute set from Levtex here. And since it’s not in the primary bedrooms, I thought it would be more fun to add in more pops of color and patterns here.

So if this “Meowy Christmas” set doesn’t get you in the holiday spirit, I don’t know what will! Y’all know I am a huge cat lover, so when I saw this pattern, I just couldn’t pass it up! It’s just so much fun and perfect for a cat lover like myself! The pillow shams are absolutely adorable full of cute little cat faces!

Flocked King of Christmas Tree in Bedroom

As you can see, there are plenty of fun Christmas bedding ideas that you can do this Christmas season. I think it is a super easy way to add in a little festive touch to your bedroom. Even if you don’t have room for a small tree in your rooms too.

Christmas Bedding Accessories 

Another thing I love to add in my Christmas bedding is a good ol throw blanket. And let me tell you, Minky Couture has the best blankets ever! They are so soft and cozy, plus you can use my code “CHARITY45” to get 45% off any blanket there as well. I am loving this dark forest green blanket I threw on the end of the bed! Usually, I don’t use much green as an accent color for Christmas, but this year I am loving it! 

Also, I always have to have a candle lit in the bedroom too. Again, of you’ve been with me a few Christmas seasons now, then you probably know what my absolute favorite candle is to light- Tree Farm by Antique Candle Co! If you don’t have a real tree in your home and miss the smell of fresh pine, this is a perfect replacement for it! It smells just like a real tree and makes my home so cozy and fresh!

Christmas Tray in Bedroom

Also, I have a coupon code for you to use with them as well! Just use “MACEDONIA20” to get 20% off Tree Farm or any other candle from them too! You can’t go wrong with any of their Christmas scents really. They are all amazing! 

Christmas Trees 

So since I am completely extra, I also have to add in some Christmas trees in our bedroom too. We don’t have a ton of room for a Christmas tree, but we do have enough for 2 slim pencil trees on either side of our nightstands and I absolutely love having the cozy feel of a Christmas tree in our bedroom! 

Festive Christmas Bedroom

If you don’t have room for trees in your bedroom, you could easily put a mini Christmas tree on a bedside table or have some bottle brush trees displayed on a shelf or tray! Another thing I like to do when styling a Christmas bedroom is drape an evergreen garland over the bed frame.

This beautiful garland is from King of Christmas and their quality does not disappoint! They make the best trees and garlands. I have several pieces from them and continue to purchase from them year after year! 

The Christmas tree I have in the guest room is from them as well. And I love it because you can easily turn it on and off with a remote control. So that’s perfect for guests. That way they don’t have to look around and see where to plug it up at!

Christmas Bedroom
This was how I styled our very first Christmas bedroom in this house!

​This garland doesn’t have any lights on it, but if you wanted lights, you could easily wrap some fairy lights around it for a cozy little glow! Also, we have our old 1920s farmhouse windows hanging on our shiplap wall in our bedroom that need some festive touches to them too! So I like to add a little wreath on each one and it is the perfect touch of Christmas!

Christmas Village in Bedroom

Another way I add in some warm white lights without a Christmas tree, is displaying my Mimi’s old Christmas village on top of our dresser in our bedroom.

She gave me all her pieces to her Christmas village as she doesn’t decorate much anymore, and it is such a treasured piece for me! I decided to put it on top of the dresser, that way our cats couldn’t mess with it, because I am sure they would love to knock all the village people over!

Christmas Village

​Enjoy Your Christmas Bedroom 

Well, I hope you enjoyed all these simple Christmas bedroom decor ideas and can use something from this post! You don’t have to go all out like I do, you can decorate your bedroom in a really simple way instead.

Just add in a small Christmas wreath, or some string lights for a little Christmas cheer! It doesn’t have to be fancy, just a little something special!

How to Decorate a Bedroom for Christmas
Pin for Later!

​I absolutely loved sharing my Christmas bedroom decorations with y’all and I hope you enjoyed it too. Even though it’s a room in your house that most guests don’t see much of, it’s worth decorating just for you! To give you some joy and peace when retreating into your bed after a long day!

I love walking into my Christmas wonderland bedroom to relax and sleep after a long work week and I know y’all will too! You can’t be stressed under the glow of cozy Christmas lights! Also, I hope you all have a very merry Christmas this year too!

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. ❤️

Give me a pool, a good book, and some sunshine, an Give me a pool, a good book, and some sunshine, and I’m set for the entire day! 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! 👇🍅🥒🌶️

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? 🌿👇

Can we talk about how exhausting working with the Can we talk about how exhausting working with the public can be? Some days I’m convinced my true calling is being a remote work, stay-at-home employee with minimal social interaction because nothing drains my social battery faster. 😅

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
But can we talk about how hard it is to make frien But can we talk about how hard it is to make friends in your 30s?! Is anyone else struggling with adult friendships, or is it just me?

Maybe it’s my socially awkward, overthinking brain. Maybe it’s because I spend 99% of my free time at home and have fully embraced my introvert era. Or maybe it’s the fact that every time I meet someone new, I replay the entire conversation in my head for the next 3-5 business days. 🤣

And while I’ve never been officially diagnosed as neurodivergent, let’s just say some of those traits hit a little too close to home. 🧠😂

So if you’re also navigating social anxiety, an expired social battery, awkward small talk, and the challenge of making friends as an adult... welcome. You’re my people.

At least in my head, I’m the life of the party. 🎉🤣 #neurodivergent #neurodivergentsupport #socialanxietymemes #adultfriendships #socialbattery
POV: You survived your first full week back at wor POV: You survived your first full week back at work after endometriosis excision surgery… and this is what recovery really looks like. 😂

I officially made it through my first full week back to work after a month-long surgery leave, and whew… the post-op fatigue is NO joke.

Every evening has looked pretty much the same: clock out, soak my aching body in a scorching hot bath, grab my heating pad, put on my weighted eye mask, and immediately take a cat nap before I can even think about making dinner or doing anything around the house. 😴

I knew recovering from endometriosis excision surgery would take time, but I didn’t expect the exhaustion to hit this hard after returning to work. My body is definitely reminding me that healing isn’t always a straight line.

Right now, this little recovery routine is getting me through:
💛 Hot bath
💛 Heating pad on full blast
💛 Weighted eye mask (shoutout to @nodpodofficial) 
💛 Emergency evening nap

Thankfully, it’s finally the weekend, and I can focus on resting and recharging before doing it all over again next week.

If you’ve had endometriosis excision surgery, how long did the fatigue last for you after returning to work? Please tell me this part doesn’t last forever! 😂👇
