The Beginning of A Home


I never thought picking paint colors would be so hard.

Call me crazy

I get all anxious and worried and tense.

It's pathetic really.

Why is that so hard? It's not like I could never repaint? It's most defiantly NOT the end of the world, but it feels like it sometimes..



My Fiance has been fixing up the house we are going to live in after the wedding, the house is an hour away from my school and it's killing me. I wish with all my heart I could be at the house working and cleaning and helping! Alas school comes first (lame).

We are going to be living in a little house on a plot of land in Arkansas and it's the cutest thing ever, while it currently needs a little TLC I can't wait to share before and after pictures with you!

Pinterest, I fear, is going to be my fiance's next nightmare. There are just so many grand ideas and DIY projects for home making, and trust me I have pined them all. I never planned my wedding before I was engaged, but I do have some lovely ideas on how to make a house a home.

Now that I realize this post is mainly me rambling I figured I will share a sneak peak of our soon to be homestead covered in the fresh snow fall.

Oh and don't you worry, I finished picking out paint colors!

Tea Time

I love tea!

I am not a coffee drinker unless it has a lot ton of sugar in it.

Because of my love for all types of tea when I heard of taking a bath in it I though to myself...

"why not?"

The main purpose of taking a bath in green tea is to pull all the toxins from your body. It also is said to help fight cancer infected cells without harming the tissue around it.

So I tried it out and I loved it! I placed in the recommended 5 bags of tea into my running bath water, filling the tub almost to the brim.

Make sure that after your tea bath you do not use any other body wash or lotions because that would defeat the whole purpose of taking this bath! 
 


If you take a green tea bath I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Blog Every Day In June/ Home #5

Home!
 Song after song is written trying to capture the magic of finding a place to call home, and the definition is different for everyone. For almost 20 years I have lived in the same house, in a good size town, a stones throw away from the beautiful city of Chicago! I've had many adventures here and I know there's more to come this summer! Here are a few pictures of the place I call home!
