feel good friday >>> end of #31days

well I can't believe today marks the first day of November. where has the time gone the last few months? I've decided life with a baby goes something like this >> days and nights sometimes seem never-ending, but weeks and months fly right by.

thanks for sticking with me during my 31 days to a more golden life challenge with the nester. I may have missed a few days here and there but overall I  t r i e d  writing every day.

here are my #feelgoodfriday words for the day

see what I did there? ;) but really- I hope you can find the golden moments within every day and learn to find joy in life even when life has gotten you down. I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween and have a fabulous and safe weekend--- bring on November!!

easy DIY kids costumes

With Halloween just 9 days away, I figure some of you may be like me and are still trying to decide what your little peanut's costume should be... I even thought I might "sew" him a costume months ago when thinking about Halloween. Yeah right haha. Here are a few DIY easy costume ideas for your little ones.....Nixon may or may not be one of these.... ;)

Homemade costumes are usually even better than store bought- it's finding time to make them- all of these should been fairly easy & no sew!

skull decor for your home >>> #skullz

Today I'm talking fun ideas on how to tastefully decorate with the ever-so-lovely skull.

Some of us may hate the skull, but others already love the skull- might even do a tiny bit of decorating without halloween...? that could be creepy unless it's a metallic black, silver, white, or gold totally fake skull.

Here are some fun, tasteful ways to incorporate the skull into your halloween decor [and of course over here we are a little partial to gold  #31days]
