Going back to work after having a baby feels like Going back to work after having a baby feels like the equivalent of not running for 5 months and then suddenly being thrown into a big race. I’m not as fast as i used to be and it’s really hard. You feel alone. Lots of ups and downs. if you if you know a new mama, give them a hug for me :)

The gel cleanser is nourishing and has active ingredients like white willow bark that keep my skin even and clear. The day cream is the perfect balance of feeling rich but lightweight. Skin looks dewy, soft, and hydrated after. #januarylabs #cleanbeauty #antiagingskincare #gifted

Went back to work 2 weeks ago and feeling like I’m having many “mom brain” moments. Trying to be gentler with myself. How do people do it? I suppose it’ll get easier with time. Anyway, happy it’s the weekend ❤️

It always seemed like a faraway dream and it sometimes still feels surreal to have this little man in our lives!! These last few months have taught me how much moms really do, all the mamas are incredible #heroes #happymothersday ❤️🤗

heeey mamas! I've been using Nutrafol's Postpartum hair supplements for the past 2+ months. I know it takes time and consistency to see results but wanted to share my impressions so far!

If you haven't heard of them, Nutrafol is an award-winning daily hair growth supplement that helps reduce hair shedding, support thicker hair volume, and faster growing, longer hair. Their postpartum system is especially formulated for women in the first year after giving birth or breastfeeding.🙌🏼

I heard about postpartum hair shedding and since I already have thinning hair, I wanted to get ahead of it. I plan to keep taking my supplements for a full year but even after 2 months, I've already noticed less shedding and improvement along my hairline. I'll keep you posted on results in a few months!

If anyone else is interested in trying them out I’m very excited to share my discount code that will get you $50 off of your first three month supply of Nutrafol! 👏🏼 see the link in my stories!

DIY Pressed Floral Cards

DIY Pressed Floral Cards
Pressed floral cards are a fun and thoughtful way to send some preserved blooms and love to someone special! I love collecting wildflowers and using pieces from bouquets to create framed floral art and cards. Instead of buying an Hallmark card, trying making something one-of-a-kind and personal instead! 
 
New to pressing? Don’t worry – I got you! Keep reading for my tips and for some step-by-step instructions.  
 
DIY Pressed Florals
DIY Pressed Floral Cards
tips
  • Avoid using flowers with fleshy stems and leaves (they don’t press well)
  • Avoid using flowers with very thin petals (they fall off easily)
  • Don’t press already wilted flowers (the more fresh, the better)
 MATERIALS NEEDED
  1. Flowers, foliage, or botanicals
  2. Books
  3. Tissue, newspaper, facial tissue, or sheets of nonglossy paper
  4. Mod Podge Glue
  5. Brush
  6. Blank cards / paper stock

 
Step 1: PRESS FLORALS
  • Position the florals and foliage face down and sandwich them between layers of an absorbent material (e.g. tissue paper, newspaper, etc.)
  • Stack the sandwiched pieces and tissue inside a heavy book
  • Stack other heavy books on top to add weight
  • Let dry for 2 weeks
 
Step 2: CREATE CARDS
  • Take a brush to apply mod podge glue to back of dried flowers
  • Place on blank cards and let dry!Optional: apply a full layer of glue over entire surface of card for extra support
  • Send to a loved one or save for a special occasion!
