Hux Goods

My friend Jennae, the creative behind Hux Goods, sent me a few items from her shop recently and I wanted to share because they are good. So good.  

The first items she sent me I use daily. I mean, every. Single. Day. 

My hair is usually in a ponytail or bun, it's just the way of life around here.  I have always bought the elastic bands from the drugstore that more than often get stuck in my hair and result in a tug of war match.  She sent me a pack of her novelty hair ties and now they're the only ones I use! They're gentle, don't leave creases and come in many different colors and patterns. 


She also sent me a couple of great headbands, one of which I rocked for the Super Bowl and most of the Seahawks games!



The other night I left my hair ties at home while hubby and I went on a date! Instead of lugging around the diaper bag, I picked a few essentials, tossed them into my Hux Goods Freyja fold over clutch and danced out the door.  It is the perfect size for a night out and is a great staple piece to match any outfit. The quality of the clutch is superb and I love the fun colorful fabrics she used for the inside panels. She has different sizes with different interior panel fabrics available in her shop!


The clutches are the perfect size for a phone, gloss, keys, a couple cards and few others essentials for the evening. 


Be sure to check out her shop to see all that she has available! Thank you Jennae for sharing your talent!

Basement Update

Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful, restful Holiday season! I feel like we haven't stopped since Thanksgiving so I'm looking forward to slowing down a bit!

We used our Christmas break to make some headway in the basement. Justin was able to spray paint the back two rooms and it looks so great! The walls have solid coverage while the ceiling has a more rustic look. I L O V E it! 


We're hoping the carpet goes in this week sometime then we can move things into place and paint the front two rooms. 

The picture above will be the living space. Couch, T.V. and lots of fun pops of color!
This picture below will be the kids play area. I can't wait to get all the toys organized and into one place! 


I will be purchasing new light fixtures and window coverings which will make the space look even better! Other than that, I'd like to try and use pieces from around the house to furnish with. 

In the process I've been purging, organizing and donating. There is no better way to start a new year!
