Target really understood the fall decor assignment Target really understood the fall decor assignment this year 🍂🤎 I found the CUTEST long fall stems on my latest Target run and knew they would look perfect in my galvanized metal vase in the kitchen! 🏡

They added the prettiest pop of fall color without making the space feel too “fall,” and I’m obsessed with how realistic the little hops look! 🌿🍁 Plus, I ended up needing way fewer stems than I thought… which means I can return the extras and spend that money on something else, right?! 😂

Gotta love when girl math + Target fall decor work out in your favor! 🤣🛒

Are you decorating for fall yet?! 🍂

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?!

Fall is almost here, which means it’s officially a Fall is almost here, which means it’s officially apple orchard season! 🍎 One of my favorite fall traditions is picking fresh Honeycrisp apples straight from the orchard. There is just nothing better than a crisp, juicy apple on a cool autumn day!

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!

Where To Find The Best Artificial Christmas Trees

If you know me, then you know I am completely Christmas obsessed and I have to have at least one kind of Christmas tree in every room of my house! So I figured today I would share with you all where to find some of the best artificial Christmas trees.

Especially since it is already early November and it is time to start planning your Christmas decor! If you’re in need of a new tree this year, see some of my favorite options below!

Where To Buy The Best Artificial Christmas Trees
Pin For Later!

Target’s Wonderland Christmas Trees

It’s no surprise that Target has made my list of where to find the best artificial Christmas trees! I think that Target has some great options for a low price.

And if you’re trying to stick to a budget this year, Target may be the place to check out first. For example, this pre-lit 7 foot tree below is only $96, which is an incredible deal for that size!

They also have some really cool and unique tree options as well. So if you’re looking for something non traditional, they have you covered too!

I absolutely love the shape of this one below, it’s so unique and different!

I’m also a sucker for flocked trees. Most of the trees I have in my home are flocked so I of course had to include some flocked favorites from target below too!

Target also has a great selection of smaller and table top trees as well. If you’re looking for a tiny tree for a kids room, or another area of your home, these would be some great options to consider.

Michael’s Stores Christmas Trees

Another place I love to shop for Christmas trees at is Michael’s stores. They usually have a great selection and most of the time you can find them on a great sale.

I believe that they tend to do a killer 50% off sale around Black Friday too, so hopefully that tradition will continue this year as well.

I usually get my pencil trees from Michael’s and I have several already, but I am looking to add in a few new ones. Especially since I now have a guest bedroom to decorate for Christmas too!

I will share a couple that caught my eye below.

I also love how they have many brightly colored ones to choose from this year as well. I mean how fun would that little pink tree be in a little girls room?!

I remember I had a pink tree growing up in my bedroom and it was one of my most favorite trees!

King Of Christmas Trees

Now, if you really want a high end Christmas tree, then I definitely recommend King Of Christmas Trees. I personally have one of these trees, and I am so obsessed with the quality and beauty of that tree!

These trees are a little more pricey than the above options, but you honestly get what you pay for. I believe these trees are way more fuller and more realistic like than some others I’ve seen.

This would definitely be more of an investment piece if you chose one of these trees, but it would really be worth it year after year!

This is the one I have below and I place it in my office every year. You can see more about my review of it in my King of Christmas Tree post that I did last year.

But it definitely does not disappoint and it is one of my most favorite trees!

King of Christmas has a lot of different varieties of artificial trees to choose from, and they are all so lifelike and real!

I am definitely impressed with this company and they ship fast for free in the USA as well!

King Of Christmas Garlands and Wreaths

King of Christmas also offers some beautiful garland and wreath options as well. I have one of their unlit garlands and I hang it above our bed every year.

It gives our bedroom just the right amount of Christmas flair!

You can see more about that garland in my Christmas Bedroom post from last year. I chose to get an unlit garland, and you can see the one I have below.

I mainly got unlit because I already have two pencil trees up in our bedroom and I figured that would be too much with a lit garland too!

But they do also offer several options in their wreaths and garlands as well. Such as lit or unlit and flocked or not.

I feel like you definitely get more options when you order from this company as well.

The Home Depot

So I can’t believe I have never thought to get a tree from The Home Depot before, but we got one this year!

And let me tell y’all, I am in love with it! It is so pretty and I love how it has the option to switch from the warm white color to multi color.

It also has several light options where you can make them twinkle or slow fade as well. It was also super easy to “fluff” it. You basically just pulled down a branch and it all fell into place for you!

This very well be my favorite artificial Christmas tree we have in our home this year!

I love the flocked look to it and I think it looks perfect in my woven tree collar that I got from Target too.

This also comes in the wooden option or the black option as well. It is a part of their Hearth and Hand collection and I will link it below.

Conclusion

Well I hope this gave you somewhat of an idea of where to search for Christmas trees this year if you’re in the market.

I’m not an expert, but I do have roughly 7 trees up at our house of varying sizes so I can say I do have a little experience with artificial trees lol Do you guys prefer artificial or real trees?

I love real trees for the smell of them, but prefer artificial trees because you can leave them up longer and reuse them every year. Let me know your thoughts below!

    I purchased an artificial tree after getting married a few years ago. I grew up with real trees – but I knew that artificial ones would mean a one-time investment for many years of tree use, which seemed more financially savvy. I wish I had looked at more places first, but we did get a pretty good deal in the end. I’d love one day to have a King of Christmas tree in my home (I want to have multiple trees in the future haha)!

    There are so many great places to pick up Christmas trees to match your style. I love that we’re seeing more variety with trees in different colours and themes – giving everyone the chance to create that perfect tree to match their home. We actually scored our last tree secondhand. The person that was selling it didn’t want to take the time to find the bulb that was out, so they sold the tree and a pack of spare bulbs for a fraction of the cost of a new tree – but it was still in like-new condition! Sure, it took me a bit to hunt that bulb down, but it was worth it lol

    I can’t wait to put up my Christmas tree! Target is always a great choice and I find myself in trouble every time I’m there when Christmas goods are lining the shelves (and filling my cart!). I love the trees from Michael’s too, I never thought about looking there for trees!

Target really understood the fall decor assignment Target really understood the fall decor assignment this year 🍂🤎 I found the CUTEST long fall stems on my latest Target run and knew they would look perfect in my galvanized metal vase in the kitchen! 🏡

They added the prettiest pop of fall color without making the space feel too “fall,” and I’m obsessed with how realistic the little hops look! 🌿🍁 Plus, I ended up needing way fewer stems than I thought… which means I can return the extras and spend that money on something else, right?! 😂

Gotta love when girl math + Target fall decor work out in your favor! 🤣🛒

Are you decorating for fall yet?! 🍂

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?! 👻

I’m just THAT introverted. 🤣 My social battery has a daily limit, and sometimes I’ve already hit my maximum number of conversations before I even get to where I’m going. 😅

No offense… I just need to ride this elevator in peace and silence 🤣

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!

Fall decorating is officially underway over here, but apparently Christmas wanted one last cameo. 🎄😂
