A Space of Your Own with the Modern Shed

I feel very lucky to have my very own studio space in our house. I love it, it is my special little place that I can go to work. It is quiet during the day and lovely with three large windows that overlook my front porch and yard. The walls are covered with large pictures of myself and my family doing the things that I love. It is a lovely little space of my own and every time I enter this space, I smile. If I didn’t have this space, I wouldn’t know where to put all of my supplies and ideas.

Do you have a lovely little space of your own? I would love to see it. If you don’t, you may want to consider a modern shed. Aren’t they sweet? Modern Shed has some fabulous Eco friendly options such as denim wall insulation, green roofs and cork floor tiles. Hmmm, maybe, I need a lovely little snuggling space of my own. This one would be lovely.

I would love to hear about your space little space.

Snapware Glasslock Green Food Storage

The mister and I finally went through all of our food storage containers and unfortunately found that a lot of them contained BPA. We just couldn’t have this, so out they went. Then on our last shopping trip to Costco, we purchased two large sets of Snapware Glasslock and we are both in love. First of all, the containers are glass. Yay! Second the locking lids are BPA free and snap securely closed. I love the glass containers, they are fabulous and are so much nicer than any plastic ware that we previously had. I can see this set lasting us for a long, long time.

What type of food storage containers do you have?

How Tuesday: Cosmetic Swap Party

Do you have a tube of lipstick, an eye shadow or blush that looks fab in the container but horrible on your face? We have all purchased a fab beauty product only to bring it home, try it out and be completely disappointed. So, what do you do? Toss it in your make up drawer where it will stay until you finally decide to toss it?

Instead of chalking it up to a small loss or big (depending on how much you spent). Have a cosmetic swap party with your best girlfriends. Chances are your deep red lipstick that makes you look like a vampire will look amazing on one of your friends.

Invite your girlfriends over for a cosmetic swap. Ask each friend to bring their make up that they would like to swap, their own beauty brushes (for trying out the cosmetics) and a portable mirror. {A bottle of wine doesn’t hurt either.} Next, set up your own beauty salon at your dining room table, stocked with Eco friendly make up pads, cotton balls and wash clothes.

Spend an evening chatting, drinking a nice glass of wine and trying on each others cosmetics.

Would you swap your cosmetics?
