Yesterday I had the opportunity to explore the Brand New ARC Thrift in Louisville.  You are greeted by a beautifully displayed collection of 4th of July decor and well stocked shelves.

Want an adorable mini apple pie recipe?  Well, today is your lucky day!  Just grab a glass jar.  This one is a Bonne Maman jar. I used a biscuit cutter slightly smaller than the jar.  I could have gone one size larger it turns out.  But that is neither here nor there. Now cut some […]

This is how you do Gatsby Style on a Stock Market Crash budget. I found the headband at Savers for $3.99 Beautiful and right on trend.  When doing Gatsby style is important to make the 20’s trends feel modern.  You don’t want to look like you’re going to a costume party.  Savers is a great […]
