Get Inspired By...Coral and Mint


Hi friends!  It's been a looooong time since I've done a "Get Inspired By" post.
There's so much pretty on the web though so why not share, right?  ;)  Check under the Inspiration tab for my past posts, where I simply share things that have caught my eye that week.
   
Are there any color combination that you just love to look at?  Coral and mint is one of them for me.  The combination is so light and airy...vintage and sweet.  It's just pretty!  Here are some coral and mint that I've recently come across.  Links below to check out in more detail!  
Beautiful coral, peach and mint bouquet.
I'd love to decorate with these vintage picture frames that can be found on Etsy.
Gorgeous party decor.  Definitely celebration worthy!
This is actually the Tula that I have!  Which reminds me, I still need to do a post on just how awesome this baby carrier is.  The print is Bliss Bouquet.
Love this piece!  I think it would be great in my girls' room.  Find it on Etsy.

This outfit with coral and mint accessories gets me excited for fall.  It's easy to throw together and looks comfy too!
You know you're good when even your party drinks match the color theme!  
Okay, I know wallpaper tends to get a bad rep, but I can totally see this Anthropologie paper used as an accent on the back of a white bookshelf.  I would also frame it and use it as art.  It's so pretty!
And finally, this one is sort of cheating cause instead of coral you see gold.  But I love everything about this picture.  Mint tutu - yes.  Adorable little girl curls - yes.  Brick wall - yes.  Table treats - yes.  

Have a wonderful week!

Toddler Things Today

Happy Tuesday everyone!  Hope you all had a fun and safe Labor Day weekend.  :) 

Last week my middle child Landon started preschool, and a couple weeks before that, my oldest Shaylin started kindergarten.  So now, Tuesdays and Thursdays have taken on a whole new meaning for me.  Yes there is the chaos of getting all 3 kids ready, then doing drop-off and pick-up at two different schools back to back...but there is also a few hours of one-on-one time with my youngest, Aubri.  

Since our alone time is short, we don't need a lot when we leave the house.  Here are some of our favorite "toddler things" that we are like to use for a few hours out!  

A lot of Aubri's current wardrobe came from generous family and friends for her first birthday.  On any given day you will usually see her showing her #carterslove.  Throw on a sundress and we're good to go.

I think these are the cutest!  They are anti-slip and stay on her feet really well.  Plus, the khaki color matches with everything.  A baby fashion score.
This cup is amazing.  It is designed so your toddler learns how to drink like they would out of a regular cup, and they can drink from anywhere along the rim.  It's also dishwasher safe.  The best thing is though, it doesn't leak!  

I recently switched over to resusable snack bags to cut down on the amount of plastic bags we use daily.  I bought these in a couple of different sizes, and they have been great so far!  I put in sandwiches, dry snacks, and even keep one in my purse in case a snack gets opened, but not finished. At the end of the day I put them in the dishwasher to clean.  Using these are better for the environment, and they're so cute too.
5. Animal book.
Aubri is really into books and this one is great because of the animals and peek a boo flaps.  We sit on a blanket in the park and we read it over and over.  Thanks to our dear friends for this awesome gift!
Throw in some diapers, wipes, and a spare outfit, and you're good to go for short trips.  This little bag comes in an array of colors and patterns.  I never leave home without one.

7. Target dollar spot light up wand.
Best $1 spent ever!  Aubri loves waving this wand around, and when you hit it, it lights up.  Luckily, it's rubber so it doesn't hurt when she runs over and hits you on the head!
That's our picks for today!  Have a great week, everyone!
