I love this kitchen hardware so much I have an entire post dedicated to it.

I chose chrome but every color is gorgeous. Kitchen hardware is something you use and see every day, so get it right!

Every day I look at this gorgeous trivet and think of my friend. The silver plating lets me decorate with my favorite mercury glass vase.

With so many lamps and wire lit items strewn throughout my home, these remote switches are a must.

I can turn every light on in the house from one location.

Outdoor Remote Control Switch

For my deck lights. Never have to go outside to turn them on or off.

Illuminate our deck every day and this makes it very easy.

It was easily transported to college in a disposable roasting pan.

This is a great product for all of those areas you are trying to protect from writing imprints.

Not to mention, our daughters loved this for their overused desks in their college living spaces.

For the Non-bling girl, me. Dressed up the laundry room a little bit with some fancy.

Flush Mount Light

More Bling? No one is allowed in my laundry room so it is always clean and sparkly.

Dryer Balls

I use these to dry my Down Comforters.

I can wash my Down Comforters because my washing machine is a top load with NO agitator. Awesome.

Glass Jars or Canisters

These are a fun and good looking addition to the butcher block shelf in the laundry room.

I use what I keep in them...all the time!

Gain Scent Booster Beads

Always add to loads with sheets for incredible scent.

Running clothes get this boost since I can't use softeners.

I found this great little scoop at Hobby Lobby.

The size of the scoop worked perfectly in the glass canisters and it is much softer than the metal one I had before.

Cabinet Contractor

If you are in the search for a cabinet contractor for your laundry room or closets, look no further.

Spacemakers Closets and Seden Harrison made all of my dreams come true.

This product makes me wish I installed a hand held sprayer in every bathroom.

Vacuum Storage Bags

Sterilite Box

These are fantastic for storage. If the labels fall off, you can still see inside the box to find your goods.

Not much ironing happening in our household.

This is a great product to stow away in a closet far away.

Great for daughter's new apartment.

There are different styles and it adds some character to a basic bathroom.

These can be used anywhere in your home. Move them around for variety.

Wicker Trunk For Furniture

Edit some of the wood pieces in your home by using a  wicker trunk as a coffee table or end table.

Use different textures for interest.

Personal Goods

Olukai Ohana Flip Flops

These are my favorite flip-flops of all time. So many colors are available. Over the years, I have had green, white, and black multiple times.

I miss the green color because I cannot find it anywhere. Ugh.

I sized down a full size.

Esseutesse Black Leather Sneaker

Okay.
Total Splurge. I had my eyes on these shoes for two years and loved them. I visited with my friend who owned and wore them, and I wanted them.

My husband loved them too, he bought me the knock-offs, and I returned them for the real deal.

I decided I work too hard & these were my compensation.

FYI...bought the black leather, which comes with black laces, so I also purchased the tan laces.
True to size.

Chinese Laundry Sandals With Clear Strap

My sister shared these with me.

Almost every friend who has seen these has ordered them. Bravo!

I ordered a half-size smaller than what I wear.

Asics Gel-Nimbus

The running shoes I have migrated to given my foot size and shape.

My husband buys me four pairs every Christmas because I change them every quarter to avoid injury.

I size up a half-size.

Ugg Ansley Slipper

I wear these every day. I have two pairs in the color black and the color slate.

The colors go in and out of availability, so shop around and wait for your preferred color.

True to size.

Sorel Kinetic Bootie

Another favorite shoe my sister shared with me.

Winter. Slip them on with no socks needed, and we feel like we could run in these because they are that comfy.

True to size.

Lulu Knockoff ~ Amazon!

My favorite find is a Lulu knock-off I bought on Amazon, and I love it.

I shared a few colors, and there are a lot more. I liked this particular brand because the back of the sweatshirt detail is very flattering.

Bath & Body Works Single Wick Candle

I use these candles for my favorite Volcano Candle Hack.

Watch Video here.

Artificial Tulips

These are the most real looking fake tulips I use in my home. 😜

I love the pop of yellow to bring additional sunshine to my life!

Erin Gray Designer Jewelry

Erin Gray is one of my favorite jewelry designers. Most of the jewelry I wear is for everyday use.

Her designs are simple yet impactful and comfortable to wear.

Comfy Jeans From Amazon

Friend had these jeans on and thought they were fun for a casual day.

Really comfy and definitely order a size down!

Smaller size will make you feel good, very stretchy.

My daughter requested this necklace for a gift from me so I obliged. Her favorite influencer recommended it & she gets lots of compliments.

Naturally, I bought one for myself because it is so affordable.

Inspire Designs Jewelry

InspireDesigns jewelry is THE BEST!

Clever designs and super popular. It is in every Boutique I frequent and I gravitate to these great designs.

Made in America!!!! Enough said.

Stanley Cup...My Version, HA!

My new favorite cup. Again, thanks to my sister who received this from her daughter-in-law.

This has really helped with my H2O consumption.

The Tik-Toks my daughter has sent about this are obnoxious.

Stanley Cup Charm

Wait, What!?!?

Dang.

I wish I had thought of these, too cute!

NYX White Eyeliner

Not being the person who experiments with makeup, my daughter teaches me everything.

A favorite influencer of hers recommended this white eyeliner for the bottom of eye waterline.

I'm trying & I really like this.

Nars Concealer

I don't wear much makeup but this is a must have for dressing up.

I use the Lime Life Classified Buffer Brush #5 to apply below and above eyes. Also, use it to hide some creases, ugh.

Redken Acidic Hair Concentrate

Another recommendation from my daughter to strengthen hair.

Use this after washing sometimes instead of a conditioner to keep hair smooth and shiny.

Lime Life Glow Drops

Again, I don't wear a lot of makeup.

This is my foundation.

Lime Life Classified Buffer Brush #5

Fantastic makeup brush. I use this to add my concealer.

Remember, this is coming from someone who does not wear a lot of makeup.

Lime Life Exfoliating Pads

These exfoliating pads are great. In the evenings, I love to do my final cleaning using these and it feels great.

Yummy smell, excellent product.

LimeLife Lip Gloss-Grace

Favorite Lip Gloss.

All LimeLife comes packaged beautifully. This lip gloss is not only gorgeous when applied, it tastes yummy.

Bath & Body Works Night Balm

Absolute favorite for lip repair. It says night balm but I use it all day.

Shines the lips...which helps me since I don't wear lipstick.

They run out of this a lot so I always buy out the store when it is in stock.

Bath & Body Works Paraffin Hand Lotion

Asked an Assistant at BBW about best hand lotion to choose as free product with my coupon and she recommended Paraffin.

Having no idea what Paraffin was, she indicated it is what Nail Salons use when getting nails done. I tried it and it is spectacular. Love the feel and the smell.

Paperweights with great sayings make excellent gifts!

This gorgeous gift has a bonus! When the recipient looks at the paperweight, they will think of you.

How much fun is this Ponytail Holder Ball?!?!

I love the colors and what an easy way to grab a band for you hair!

Neutrogena oil-free makeup remover

I had to order some makeup remover for a Girl's Trip to the Beach and this was it and I love it!

I have learned I need to wear waterproof mascara while with the girlfriends because they always look spectacular and I look like a Granola.🙄

Neutrogena Ultra-Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen SPF 55

My go-to sunscreen.

This sunscreen goes on dry, does not feel sticky and works.

This is always in my lake bag and beach bag!

Yeti 24 oz. Rambler

This Yeti holds two beers (hello?), keeps them cold even on hot days.

It is equipped with a handle for ease of use.

If you are like me, you can have it engraved, so of course I engraved my name on it so as to confuse no one. Bulldog Red. Go Dawgs!

Erin Gray Designer Water Pony

MY NEW FAVORITE!

I wear a pony around my wrist at all times and these look like a bracelet and are comfortable.

Ponytail Holder

These are THE BEST Ponytail holders I have found for every type of wear.

I use these when running, laking, washing and wearing around my wrist for the late day updo.

These are comfortable to wear and last a long time.

Stay Sunny Airbnb

Looking for a great vacation spot?

Panama City Beach is home to the best beaches in the world.

I stayed at Stay Sunny & it is the perfect location. Hop, skip & you are on the beach & around the corner from Rosemary.
