Holiday Gift Idea by Mapiful & Stay at Home Holiday Outfit Inspiration
I know I have already shared a bit about Mapiful and their gorgeous personalized prints as the perfect gift idea this holiday season. With Christmas drawing ever closer, I wanted to show you how beautifully these prints pair with holiday home decor. And as a little extra bonus, I also created this sassy, sexy outfit playing dress up in my closet the other day. The combination of black satin, bright pink, and red made me smile. It may be a bit too revealing for a holiday spent at home with children, but for those of you who do not have young children at home and are planning a quiet holiday…

Stay Hydrated with Copper H2O & Link Up On the Edge #121
A few weeks ago, I was introduced to the benefits of drinking water from a copper bottle by an amazing company, Copper H2O. The theory of “tamra jal”, which is based in Ayurvedic medicine, states that infusing the positive health properties of copper into our drinking water will balance the three doshas in your body (vata, kapha, and pitta). Eastern societies have been storing their drinking water in copper vessels for centuries because the copper will naturally alkalinize the water stored within it. Consuming natural alkaline water will help balance the pH of our bodies which leads to many different health benefits. After having a wonderful and very informative telephone…
