My Monthly Favorites: January 2020

January 30, 2020 By Kristin No Comments

Shop My Favorites

Hello All! We are about to close the first month of 2020, can you believe it? I can’t. It’s been a busy, whirlwind of a month … Olivia is blowing my mind each day with her commitment to violin, and her excitement at learning to read … she read her first sentence yesterday and my mama heart swelled with pride. I owe it entirely to the book above, which we’ve been following this month.

And Emme, watching her big sister learn violin, wants to learn too! However, she is in no way ready to handle a real violin, so we decided to give it a whirl with the guitar instead. The one above is pretty realistic, but cheap enough that if she happens to break it (good chance, but fingers crossed), it won’t be a big deal!

And that mirror, oh that mirror … I’ve been eyeing it for over a year. I just didn’t have anywhere to put it until I moved some things around. As you all know, I don’t buy “stuff” just to buy it … it needs to be something that we’ll love, and it needs to have a place in our home. Otherwise, it just ends up as clutter or stored in a closet … and becomes a major source of stress for me. If you missed my recent declutter guide you can check it out here … am I the only one that has a physical reaction to mess & clutter?

And then there are a few fun finds for spring and upcoming vacations that I just adore. Those sandals … one of a few things I think all women who live in a warmer climate should own. I’ll probably put together a separate capsule of shoes for you all … the Essential 25 Collection is the foundation of course (check it out here), but it’s also thoughtfully collected and the items are meant to be season-less … my goal was for it to apply to all women, regardless of their climate and environment. Unless you live in a magical bubble where it’s 70 degrees year-round, you’re probably going to need a few more items to deal with the extremes. That’s why I plan to introduce seasonal capsules to supplement the Essential 25 Collection … your spring edition will hit within the next couple months, so stay tuned! In the meantime, snap up these sandals, because I guarantee they’ll make the cut.

Wishing you all a great weekend, and welcome to February!

Another beautiful “weed” … I remember making Another beautiful “weed” … I remember making flower crowns from dandelions as a child … so we made flower crowns today from whatever we could find 🌾 We planted our flower garden very late this year, so we’re still waiting on blooms … there’s beauty in patience, in the unexpected, and even in moments of tragedy. You just have to look to find it 💛 #prayersforuvalde

What gift do you most remember receiving as a kid? What gift do you most remember receiving as a kid?  Was it a toy or an experience?  Was it something you know the giver put some time or thought into?  Kids notice too!  While sometimes a quick toy from Target is necessary, I always encourage Livi and Emme to come up with some sort of experiential gift for their friends. They learn the importance of thoughtfulness, and their friends get to learn a new skill rather than add another toy to the pile!  If there’s a kiddo in your life who loves to paint, this gift is a hit 🎨 … purchase a stack of stretched canvases, paint brush set, and paints. Use some twine to tie it all together!  You can print out the cover to this online acrylic painting tutorial here: https://pin.it/6NGlpSD … I also took a photo of the paint brush stroke guide included with the paintbrush set and included it as well.  For a special touch, purchase a small pouch for the paint and use @canva (free!) to create a personalized name tag 💛 #giftsforkids … Essential 25 Lookbook Look No. 3 coming tomorrow!
