Throwing the light cold stuff in as I go. Love this new #thirtyone summer print! I'm ready for pool time!

I LOVE Jamberry!

I'm having a little Jamberry catalog show, my consultant Sarah was so gracious to provide me with a ton of samples and material. I of course had to stick it all in a Thirty One Timeless Beauty bag! Now I'm ready to earn some free goodies!

My home state could really use your prayers.

Versatility man!

Most great inventions are born out of necessity. Not saying this is a great invention but it's certainly made my life easier. I have a Thirty One your way jr cube in my pantry for my baking needs. It's stuff that I don't touch every day so I had a lid on it, but a few of the things I've been using a lot lately. And I kept having to pull the cube out and take the lid off and find what I need (it was so time consuming, #FWP). One day apparently I tossed the lid to the side. Next thing I know I started stacking the things I was using the most in the lid. IN THE LID!! And that's when the idea formed. Lids aren't just for lids! I can totally do this on purpose! So I put the lid beside the bin and there lives the things I find myself reaching for a lot. Ta Da! I always say that Thirty One products are so versatile, and they really are, you just have to use your imagination!

Help me, I'm a mother!


I have a 3 and a 1/2 year old. She's the absolute light of my life and I love her dearly. BUT she's a tiny tornado that makes messes everywhere she goes! OMG I know you moms out there know exactly what I'm talking about. That SomeECard that says cleaning the house with a toddler is like brushing your teeth while eating oreos is EXACT! Hits it right on the head. We're really working on cleaning up after ourselves and choosing one toy at a time. Establishing good habits and all that jazz. It's hard for me because I'm not very organized, so I'm working on new habits too. Shout out to the Fly Lady, she's helping! More on that later.
So, the point of this post in what I'm sure will become a series, the one thing in her bedroom that I absolutely could not get a handle on were her books. She has a very nice book shelf that I'd love to use. But when the books are on the shelf she always always ends up dumping them all out! And once 75 books are dumped on the floor the room goes to hell in a handbasket FAST! And I get overwhelmed and I just throw my hands in the air and say FINE! Stay that way then! And it's a vicious cycle.

So about two weeks ago I decided I'd had enough. Something had to give. So I got two Thirty One bins, the your way cube, and the your way rectangle. I pulled all her books off the shelf and put them in these bins. I told her if I found them dumped on the floor they were going up. No more books.
(I really hoped she didn't push me on this one, what kind of mom wants to take all the books away?? I was so bluffing!)
It's been two weeks. I find a few books scattered here and there but they have not been dumped out once. I have a theory, they're stacked in like records. I think it's easier for her to thumb through them and see what she wants than it was on the shelf. I also think the bins are too dang heavy for her to tip over.
It's win win. Her room is organized with Thirty One, which I love, and I don't have so much mess to clean up.
Mommy for the win!!

My 2nd favorite DS company!

Might be obsessed a little with my #origamiowl bracelet. It's the first time I've gotten charms based on my likes! I have the best Origami Owl rep ever! She helped me earn so much free stuff! Thanks Courtney!!
So we have the coffee cup. Because Duh! The purse for my #thirtyone obsession. The key because I am the key to my own success. Good or bad. The sunflower because the princess and I are growing them and loving it! The B for my last name. And the OMG for my love of social media! Love it love it!!

Easter!

Easter was amazingly fun. The princess loved her basket and had the best day with her family. She hasn't put her pink lamb down since yesterday morning. And if her "basket" gets out of her sight she loses it! I guess that means she's really going to love using her round about caddy for her pool bag! Come on summer!

Easter!

In love with my precious girl's Easter basket! She picked it out all by herself and I know she's going to be so excited when she gets it. After Easter it will be used as our pool bag to carry her toys to and from our pool. I love the thirty one round about  caddy so much. It is so versatile!

Friday business tip!

Friday #thirtyone business tip! Save all of your plastic, unless it's been monogrammed and you do not plan to ever gift it or resell it. I put all my plastic together when we get kits (whether they be add-on kits or incentive kits) and put a note card inside telling me what it is and what catalog it's from. This makes it super easy to find when the catalog is over and you are clearing out inventory!

The trick to the trick!

I know all of our minds are still blown from the amazing ordering trick shared by fellow director Amanda Elmore last week. My life is forever changed. BUT many of you have been asking me, "It won't let me add multiple products of the same style and print using the trick, what am I doing wrong?"

Whoa!

First time using my #thirtyone pack and pour thermal. It can hold a lot!!

Make room for groceries!

Do you run out of room in your grocery cart? No room for your bag, your kid, and your groceries? No problem! Just use your Thirty One key fob to hang your bag on the cart and enjoy utilizing that space for much more important things, like bread and eggs!

I got 99 problems...

It occurs to me as I prep food for a super fun evening with friends that I am truly blessed to have found a job that I love!

Organized not chaotic

Never look for a chip clip again! Store your salty snacks in a your way rectangle from #thirtyone and keep them corralled on the handle!

Faster ordering. Who knew??

My life is forever changed by this video. You will not believe it. I don't know how no one ever told us this.
