The 21 Best Home Bars For All The Drinks – Part 1
I’ve always thought that everyone should have a bar in their home. Whether that’s a bar cart, a bar nook, a full on bar with stools, or just a bar set up on or in any piece of furniture. As a child we had a full-on bar in our living room in Connecticut. There was barn wood on the face of the bar and we would go behind it and pretend we were serving people. We did our homework there and we had snacks there. In my teenage years, my parents had a wet bar nook in the living room. So, seeing this in my childhood, I just always thought that’s what adults were supposed to have. I also had parents that taught me that alcohol should be used in moderation, which is a great lesson.
The Best 2024 Fall Festivals in Georgia
Anyone who knows me knows that Fall is my absolute favorite season and one of my favorite things to do in the Fall is go to Arts & Crafts Festivals. The festival food, the crisp air and meeting artisans from around the Southeast makes my heart happy. So, I’ve compiled a list of the best ones this Fall so you can be happy too.
Many of these I’ve been to before or I’ve heard about them from friends so I highly recommend any of these or all of them if you love vintage, unique foods and music.
The Most Epic List of Olympic “Metals” in Honor of the Olympic Medals
I don’t know about you, but I’ve been obsessed with the Summer Olympics this year. I’m usually obsessed, but this year took it to a whole nother level. Most people I know have felt the same way. There have been so many people on social media watching the Olympics, doing the routines and movements and I can safely say that we are all in.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
