New Home Decor

Changing locations after 8 years is hard but exciting. I did cry for the last few days at the end of the original adventure but I am excited about the new space. This time I am trying to blend styles together and make new spaces functional for me. So here are 5 new items purchased to help with the transition.

Best Products for Easier Travel

I don’t know how you travel but I am equally in the air or in the car when I travel. I also am prone to trips within trips and I do last-minute trips all of the time. Over the years, I have found a system that works best for me. One of those things, I am always partially packed. I only ever need to do three things:

  1. Add in my clothes
  2. Add in my makeup and current vitamins
  3. Swap my short trip for my long trip bathroom items or vice versa

So below are 5 items (6 because I love both bags) that I love and that make traveling easier no matter what kind of travel you are doing.

Road Trip Packing Items

It’s the season for road trips and I take them in abundance. While my destination, the length of the road trip, and the people who travel with me, change with each trip; there are fundamentals that always remain. Here are 5 items that I will always have in my car before starting a road trip.

  1. Sunglasses are an absolute must and I have been on trips where I have forgotten mine. So when anyone is traveling with me, I also have extra sunglasses for everyone in the car.
  2. Water is something every passenger has in my car and I have it in bottles that can be reused for the duration of the trip. You never know when you desperately need that sip of water.
  3. A blanket that can be used to cover things, sit on, sleep with or even dry off with.
  4. Kleenex because drive-thru napkins are just so harsh on your face.
  5. Roadside emergency kit for the . . .’I wasn’t prepared for that’ moments.

Products Galore

Am I the only person that “window shops” online? I get into Amazon for one thing and then end up taking a look around and just like Target, I end up walking away with a few more items. The good news is that I have found some things that I absolutely love which is why I need to share them with you!

What products have you found that you just love?

Before I share with you my usual 5; I wanted to share with you another great product  I have tried from Maple Holistics. If you aren’t sure who they are, take a look at this prior post of mine. Maple Holistics is a beauty and personal care company that provides natural cruelty-free products. The products are really wonderful to use. This winter my hair seemed to feel a little more rough (dry) then usual and I have been looking all over for something that could ease that without having oil directly on my hair. As with all of their shampoos, you only need the smallest amount to get the benefits. Still not convinced? . . .Read this article written about it and see if you change your mind.
