I know it’s been awhile since I have made a post, but it’s been quite a busy summer for this southern stylist.

I wanted to share with you a little of what I have been up to. Summer time can be slow as far as styling so, I decided to take on a new hobby, making board frames.

You can hang your jewelry, recipes, pictures, scarves, etc. The best thing about it is that no two frames are alike and it’s all recycled.

They also make awesome gifts. (Hint, hint)

This has definitely been a good way to get out my creativity. Don’t get me wrong, I still love my styling and bargain shopping, but this is a great way to occupy my time and maybe help you find something to get you and your closet, jewelry, or photos organized.

Yes, I managed to find hobbies that include styling and organization.

Check out my long nine days at the beach with my family. Yes, it was what I call crazy and exhausting fun!

Obviously it was when your 4 year old little boy is sleeping past 8 am in the mornings, ha!

There is nothing like getting away and being able to enjoy total chaos which helps me think and become a bit more creative.

While I was enjoying time with the fam I did managed to venture out and do some bargain shopping. I took my sisters and they got to see me in action.

We ran in and out of stores very quickly, because Jeffery was watching 10 kiddos while we were gone…oops!

We certainly didn’t expect him to be stuck with that many, but I will say he handled it well. So in and out as quickly as possible with three girls was definitely a lot of fun and a successful challenge.

I think my sisters were quite impressed about what I could find in a matter of minutes.

Next up is vacation bible school for Dill. Let’s just say he got some great time with Jesus for two weeks. Love it!

Now it’s time for an even busier two months, that’s the life of a stylist/blogger/creative frame maker/mommy/wife/friend/and Jesus loving women.

I am so blessed to have a gift that I know God wants me to share with each and every one of you. I love being busy and I thank God that he gives me the ideas, strength, and creativity to share with you all.

Enjoy my pics of my frames and if you would like to order one you can contact me. They can be custom-made.

Also, enjoy the pics of my family. It’s very rare that we get everyone together and what a blessing it was.

A little water fun.

Finally. Jeffery made it!

We got to squeeze in a date night. I guess it was only fair since Jeffery had to watch 10 kids.

Some late night crabbing.

Burying Jeffery in the sand.

Time to shop. Great bargains!

Tired babies.

My new projects.

I got a part time job doing what I love to do!

This is the outfit I wore the day I interviewed. Its a romper with a chambray blouse over it.

This gives you a tip on how to break up those prints and change up those fun rompers.
