Bar Soap Organizer
I am very excited to share this item with you! Having switched to bar soaps in the shower, it can get tricky to find places to put them. Plus, they're slippery once you've used them and easily slide off the shelf. I've been thinking about how to solve this problem for quite some time, but… Continue reading Bar Soap Organizer

Not to be discouraged, I looked into starting one here, but I wasn't quite ready to invest the time necessary (It could… Continue reading Free Things!

No one likes to deal with the waste, or spend all that money every month. Photo by Anna Shvets on Pexels.com The great news… Continue reading That Time of Month

As a teenager, I didn't start shaving for quite some time and I didn't even know about the alternatives for an even longer time. Upon seeing my razor bumpy legs, a well meaning pedicurist asked if I also wanted to get my legs waxed. I quickly declined because it sounded like an extremely painful experience,… Continue reading Sugaring
