My Favorite Products That Make My Life Easier
I'm sure you probably know from today to Friday (11th) is Prime Day. If you remember my post about how I can keep this place up and running yearly, you know unfortunately Amazon is really the only way I can make that happen since I'm considered a 'mini' blogger. My sassy thoughts doth not jibe with sponsors, my following is small (which I love actually) so Amazon affiliate links are the only way I can hit that target. I will say that due to tariff pauses expiring at the end of day today, prices could go way up tomorrow (9th) so I would encourage you to buy today even though Prime Day doesn't end until the 11th. I know I will be. I'm going to share products I love and if you check 'em out and buy them or anything on Amazon once you click through, it'll help me keep the place jumpin'. Electric Spin Scrubber I can't begin to tell you the game changer this is especially for someone who isn't a clean freak. The last thing my mind but mor...
Like you my decorating style has changed. My younger self LOVED anything Colonial - bulky & dark. Now I'm drawn to light & airy (love the kitchen design by the way). I cannot even say that I have a 'style'. I just have what I think looks good in my house. Hmmmm....that could be it. I no longer am confined by societal 'style' but simply surround myself with things and people that make me happy!
ReplyDeleteI never had much of a style but I know when I like something and I agree with the fact that what I like has changed over the years. Luckily I like all the things you have put in our house so I am happy with our décor. I didn't even mind the black and gold stuff too much but I agree that it is dated, for us at least, now.
ReplyDeleteLove the kitchen design!
ReplyDeleteMy style has changed considerably. I went from large chunky mission style tables to a taste for a more minimalist look. I am all for open space and have eliminated alot of furniture in my quest for that.
Although I'm still in the midst of clutter, my goal is a very minimalist look. I'm no longer a big fan of knick knacks and things that take up space. I feel so clam when I'm in a room that has "clean lines." I laugh as I look around because I'm so far from that right now!
ReplyDeleteMy younger self also could not imagine walking around with zero makeup on and my hair in a ponytail. My hair was always a bit simplistic, so that's not a *huge* change, but I always, always, always had some kind of makeup on. Always wore concealer, foundation, etc. Now I wear none of that and pretty much just do eyeliner and clear mascara for my eyebrows (rarely even for my eyelashes!) I guess that goes with the minimalist look too. Snort!
I've never had a lot of style sense so I don't think she'd cringe over my decorating choices. I'm not a fan of white anything because I'm messy and not the best housekeeper. I wish my kitchen didn't have orange countertops and my bathroom didn't have a yellow countertop and tub. I'm looking at a complete bathroom remodel in the near future, but the kitchen is at least a few years out. It was like this when I moved in, and if I've lived with it for nearly 18 years I can live with it a little longer.
ReplyDeleteI've always liked muted colors on walls and natural woods.
I remember that sleek black look so well. I see those and think of audio cabinets and MTV.
ReplyDeleteI've learned to design for my habits and my space. I don't dust often enough so I have to stay away from knick-knacks even though I do like them. I'm more likely to keep surfaces clean if they don't already have items on them. I enjoy bolder colors than I would have thought as a teen. I tried to cram furniture I liked into my first home then had to replace things when they ended up not fitting the space.
