This amazing peppermint hot chocolate has been my current obsession and one of my few pregnancy cravings. It’s rich, chocolatey, peppermint-y, and delicious! It takes a few extra minutes to make this versus heating up some water and adding a packet of the store-bought stuff but boy is it worth it! To make this you […]

how to make sensory bottles
I almost can’t even write a tutorial for this because it’s so easy…find a bunch of stuff and dump it in a bottle. Tutorial done. Just kidding. But seriously, this is such a simple and fun little craft or toy for your kiddos! A sensory bottle is basically just a bottle full of fun little […]
Young Living holiday gift guide
Last night I hosted an online Facebook event where we shared a bunch of ideas for Christmas gifts that were either Young Living products or DIY gifts made with Young Living oils. We covered gift ideas for teachers, kids, friends, coworkers…really everyone! Plus stocking stuffers, gifts on a budget, and DIYs. I thought I’d compile […]
DIY Thieves cleaning wipes
I have been meaning to make some DIY Thieves Wipes FOREVER and finally got around to it this week. I’m already loving my wipes and can’t believe it took me so long to get them done! Well actually I can…it required going to Walmart to get a container and I avoid Walmart as much as […]

One of the most common questions after people get their Young Living starter kit is “How do I get the roller ball to attach to the bottle?” Then later a lot of people don’t know how to get the roller off so they can refill the bottle, switch it to another bottle, etc. And sadly […]
DIY essential oil storage solutions
I am so happy to have found a storage solution for my essential oils that is perfect for my needs AND not super-de-duper expensive! I don’t know if you’ve priced essential oil bags and cases recently but they can be rather spendy – usually around $25+ for a small bag and 30+ for a small case. […]
What’s in my diaper bag? Ju-Ju-Be BFF review
I’ve been meaning to make this post For.Ev.Er. (like a million other posts floating around in my head) but I needed to get some videos done first and, well, that just hasn’t been as easy as I’d hoped. I *finally* got that done so here we go! For about the first nine months of Hudson’s […]
DIY diffuser necklaces
Diffuser necklaces are such a great way to use your essential oils on the go. The way most diffuser jewelry works is you put a drop of essential oil on a little pad (leather, felt, or paper are popular) inside a locket that has holes in it – it acts like a mini diffuser and […]
southwest chicken salad
I love all things taco and I love a good chicken salad so when the idea popped in my head to try making a taco-ish chicken salad I figured “why not?” (I very rarely make up my own dishes…I mostly use other recipes that I’ve found or been given). I call it “southwest chicken salad” – […]
