This year, we’re keeping Christmas magical — with toys that don’t beep, charge, or hypnotize our kids. Just good old-fashioned play that sparks imagination, creativity, and actual peace and quiet. Screen-free gifts that make Christmas feel like Christmas again. ✨

I have compiled a list of indoor and outdoor things to do that are family friendlyand for a date night!

Cottage-core is a life woven in soft textures, faded florals, and timeworn charm. Clothes drape in flowing linen, ruffled cotton, and cozy knits—pieces that feel hand-stitched with nostalgia and ready for mornings in the garden or slow evenings by candlelight. Bedrooms are dressed in layered quilts, patchwork spreads, and sun-washed florals, creating a nest of comfort where every wrinkle and frill feels like home. Décor completes the story with chipped vases of wildflowers, lace curtains, antique wood, and baskets brimming with books and wool—each detail inviting warmth, simplicity, and a touch of romantic imperfection. Cottage-core is not just a style, but a sanctuary: where you dress in ease, rest in comfort, and live surrounded by beauty that feels both rustic and timeless.

All the non toxic essentials for face, hands and body!

Because my kids lick the windows, so yeah I need non-toxic

Think timeless layers, warm textures, and effortless pairings. A fall capsule is built on rich earth tones, muted neutrals, and fabrics that feel as good as they look—like chunky knits, crisp cotton, and buttery leather. Picture tailored trousers with oversized sweaters, denim that works with everything, boots that take you from school pickup to date night, and jackets that make you feel instantly pulled together. Every piece is versatile, layered-friendly, and designed to mix + match without overthinking. It’s cozy without being sloppy, polished without being fussy—the kind of wardrobe that makes getting dressed on crisp mornings feel like a treat.

An Anthropologie Home 🪞🌿✨ Eclectic, artistic, and effortlessly layered—an Anthropologie home feels like stepping into a story. Every room carries a sense of discovery, where vintage-inspired furniture mingles with bold prints, hand-painted ceramics, and one-of-a-kind textiles. Think jewel-toned velvets, carved wood accents, patterned rugs, and whimsical lighting that feels as much like sculpture as it does function. Walls are dressed with art that tells a tale, while shelves are sprinkled with treasures that feel collected, not purchased.

It’s that magical time of year when our house becomes a pharmacy, the tissue box is empty by noon, and someone always sounds like a tiny chainsaw in their sleep. 🥴 From sniffles to sore throats, we’re surviving on soup, snuggles, and the occasional please Lord let us all get better prayer. Welcome to sick season—where hand sanitizer is basically perfume and coffee counts as medicine. ☕💊
