7. Strong

    Oh how I love Proverbs 31! What a great way to lay out the chapter. Thanks for writing and sharing it in such a resourceful way. 🙂

    I’m not sure that “well dressed” one is so accurate. The verse sited seems too loose of an application and it seems to contradict Matthew 6:25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? “

  • #ad Summer hosting is one of my favorite parts of the season, but let’s be honest... no one talks about the cleanup. 😅

After every get together, I rely on a few simple reset routines to get my home back in order. I’ve been using the limited edition @lysol designs celebrating America’s 250th birthday from @Walmart to tackle hard surfaces and refresh linens after hosting that make post-party cleanup feel a whole lot more manageable.

Whether you’re hosting a backyard BBQ, family dinner, or casual summer gathering, remember: the more the messier! Celebrate big, then clean smart. Clean Up America’s Biggest Birthday with Lysol®. 🇺🇸✨

Shop @lysol at Walmart for your summer hosting cleanup routine!

  • Back porch summer reset with @homedepot 🧡#AD

Our back porch had become one of the most underused spaces in our home, so this summer a back porch reset was top on our priority list ✨

By swapping our outdoor dining setup for a cozy conversation set and adding a few simple touches like lanterns, pillows, and greenery, it now feels like the perfect spot to unwind, connect, and enjoy summer evenings.

Sometimes the biggest transformations come from the simplest changes. I found everything I needed at @HomeDepot to bring this vision to life. 

COMMENT “shop” for the links.
