Oils 101!

This past week, I hosted a virtual Oils 101 class over on Facebook! This was to share information about the essential oils and products that Young Living offers in their Premium Starter Kit! I decided to put the short video segments on my YouTube channel to be able to share again in the future!

My journey with essential oils began about 6 years ago before the birth of my first son, Leo. I was introduced to Lavender, Lemon & Stress Away to help support me through a stressful period of my life and I have never looked back! Having Young Living as a part of my family's lifestyle and also as a side business for myself has been such a blessing. I've learned so much, feel as though I have more options that I otherwise would have before in terms of supporting myself, husband and children's physical and mental wellbeing, all the while sharing with others and making so many new friends along the way. If that sounded like a sales pitch, I guess it sort of was, but not in the way you'd think. I have taken pride in being able to grow this group by truly just sharing and not selling, which is why I wanted to share information on this blog platform today. 

Check out each segment to learn a bit about the Young Living products offered in the Starter Kit, the best way to introduce Young Living's products into your everyday life,  and feel free to contact me for more information on getting started! I've also included the DIY Recipes that I shared in this class via graphics at the end of this post!

This unprecedented time that we find ourselves in lends itself to learning about different tools and items to support a clean & healthy lifestyle. Enjoy & stay safe!

Master Bedroom MakeOver

​Over the past few months, we have been slowly but surely redoing our master bedroom decor! While everything has been put on hold because, well, coronavirus, I figured I’d post what has been done so far! I hope you enjoy and find some inspiration as I did from so many hours of pouring over Pinterest, Instagram & Joanna Gaines’ book ‘Home Body’! I was trying to find a balance of what I truly liked. I finally realized that I can design a room by mixing together elements from different styles that I like! For this room I decided on a mixture of boho, modern & farmhouse.

After living here for five years, I thought it was about time for a bedroom update. It never felt very cozy to me, or a room in the house that I really enjoyed spending time in! Everything just needed to be a little more refined and cohesive. The first step was a new, larger bed! We upgraded to a king and then I FINALLY got an upholstered headboard and bed that I’ve been wanting for years.

I went with a simple white duvet from Target and found some cute sheets that included our new navy blue accent color in them. The gray-striped Moroccan pompom blanket is from one of my favorite stores in Door County, WI called Sister Golden! I could spend hours in that store and conveniently the current times we are in, they have their store online! Make sure you check it out and support small business!

The throw pillows were awesome finds at Hobby Lobby and are a super-soft velvet material. These contributed largely to helping me create the blending of styles I was going for.

Along with the new bed, we found some new white dressers on Wayfair and dark stained nightstands from Target. The navy blue accent wall was the next big step and it made a huge difference in itself! My amazing sister-in-law, Jessica, gave me a set of the curtain panels that are from West Elm. They turned out to be a perfect match for the color scheme, so I ordered another set online.

The room remained at this stage for awhile until I found some of the accents to *almost* complete the decor! My circle shelf that I use to store my essential oils and the gold frames above the bed are HomeGoods finds! The prints in the gold frames were from Etsy and were an easy, affordable digital download, so I just printed them out myself! The other decor items are from Target and Hobby Lobby. I will list and link some of the major elements below!

Links to design & decor elements:
  • White Duvet Cover
  • Good Day/Night sign
  • Gray-striped Moroccan blanket (similar here)
  • Navy Velvet pillow
  • White Velvet Pompom pillow
  • Blue framed floral art

While there are still a few additions and changes to be made, I am so happy with the overall look and feel of this room! It is cozy, refreshing and definitely a space that I enjoy being in. What is the style that you are most drawn to? Have you been successful in blending a few together? Let me know in the comments!

Stay safe & stay home, all!
