Multi-Functional Writing Desks that Get the Job Done

August 11, 2016 By LaVonne

Without the right tools, it can be difficult to do our jobs well. An uncomfortable chair or wonky writing desks makes doing anything at the computer for longer than 20 minutes a huge pain. You’ll come up with a hundred different reasons to be away from your desk, and this makes your work suffer. And let’s be real: it’s no help if our office furniture is ugly.

I'd love to have both at my home, but instead, I visit our local organic farm for fresh produce, and I decorate with silk plants. Do you decorate with silk flowers? Here in Washington state, we have great lavender fields. We've also planted some lavender plants in our front yard (those are more hearty and don't need as much care as a garden). … [Read more...]

Spring Cleaning Tips You Can Use

April 11, 2016 By LaVonne

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sam's Club. All opinions are 100% mine. We've been Spring Cleaning this last month. There is something wonderful and freeing about not only getting rid of clothes and toys in the home, but also organizing and cleaning areas that have been ignored for far too long. We've finished cleaning out our game closet, winter/summer closet, and I've even organized all the craft supplies! Now, I need to get down to the actual cleaning part. You … [Read more...]
