Hello my Besties, and welcome to another week!  I hope you had a great weekend and that you are heading into this week feeling rested and refreshed.  If not, I hope you have scheduled in some self care for the week ahead…you won’t regret it!   Today I’d like to start off by sharing a […]

Friday is here again!  I hope you all have a fun weekend planned – I’ll be working a bit, hanging with family and adding a whole bunch of new printables to my etsy shop! Woot!  Today’s Bestie Finds is all about summer comfort.  We tend to think of cozy vibes and comfort during the cold […]
