We are in an era where everyone and their mom has a podcast out there. I work from home and have had the opportunity to test drive a butt-load of them and share the ones I love.

Digital downloads are an easy and cost effective way to get one of a kind art printed they way you want or need it. I personally have painted items available for digital downloads and allow customers to use them for third party printing to sell on their e-commerce platforms. It is a win win for everyone since you can print the image as many times as you want and the artist get to keep their precious original copy. As an artist myself sometimes it is hard to sell a piece that you love and put so much time into.

These past few years, I have found a new love of doing jigsaw puzzles - I find it to be a surprisingly chill activity and it really helps me to relax and just sit down and focus on a puzzle, and nothing else. It's my perfect wind down activity after my kiddos go to bed (and a nice little glass of Pinot Grigio pairs well with that also 😏). Here are a few of my favorite ones that I have done this past year. (Note - Ravensburger is my favorite brand, but I do touch on some other brands as well). Also, I don't currently have anything to recommend that's over 1,000 pieces, simply because I just don't have the space for it, so I have not done those :(

Hello fellow writers! Here's my list for inspiration, organization, and functionality. Make your writing den magical.

Broadway is more than a hobby for me—it’s my full-on special interest. I see at least six shows a year (sometimes more if I can swing it), and the theater has become one of my happiest places. Whether I’m sitting front row or way up in the mezzanine, if the show grabs me, I’m in. And if I really love it, I’ll be listening to the soundtrack on repeat for weeks (or let’s be honest—months). This list is reserved for the shows I’ve already seen (some more than once) and would absolutely see again. They’ve stuck with me—whether it was the story, the cast, the music, or just the overall vibe. That said, I’ve definitely had a few disappointments along the way (Les Misérables, Moulin Rouge, and Peter Pan just weren’t for me), but everything here earned its standing ovation in my heart. If you're looking for show recs or just want to compare favorites, welcome to my theater-obsessed world!

It was hard on me when I first started my leather journey because I didn’t even know where to start. I hope these lists of things that I use in my leather business will help you in your endeavors.

I love a good game night. However, so many board games top out at 4 players, and, with 3 kids and 2 adults, that didn't work for us. When I looked for 5-player game recommendations, they always seemed focused on adults or serious gamers (or both!). This list is geared more towards family game night. These are some great games for 5 (or more!) players.

Teen boys are not the easiest to shop for. I have 3 boys so I've spent HOURS searching for gifts they will actually use and love. These are all teen approved and even a year later my boys still love these items.

I've worked with over 20 different art mediums and over a hundred of different kinds of products, and usually they all started with a beginner kit of some kind. Some kits are better than others (aka that crochet kit where the yarn is truly impossible to use), but I wanted to share some that have real potential to helping you get to know the craft on a budget, and give you an advantage to jump start a potential new small business endeavor! This list was made by combing through thousands of listings looking for top rated and best reviewed products. In addition to finding only the best products for you, nearly all of these I have either tried myself or have tried products from the brand and really enjoyed!

During the pandemic, we took up bird watching and created a habitat in our backyard to attract birds and squirrels. We have numerous feeders and a purple martin house in our backyard and spend most afternoons enjoying watching our birds and squirrels. Our frequent guests include a cardinal male and female couple, a woodpecker, lots of mockingbirds and bluejays, and squirrels. During the appropriate seasons, we also enjoy all the hummingbirds and the purple martins. Check out some of our recommendations below.

Crafting must haves for me but definitely in no particular order. These are some of the things I use on a nearly daily basis to create, whether these are digital invitation templates or physical items, like cupcake toppers or custom banners. I do and love both forms of creativity- and being part of people's events is what makes ME happy- getting it right and keeping it simple, maybe taking a little stress off of you guys :)
