Although my last affordable Christmas decor post was in 2019 (I promise I decorated last year), I'm trying to get this years post up early! If you want to check out 2019's post, you can view it HERE. I love decorating for the holidays but feel like my style changes every year. What I loved in 2019 might not necessarily be what I'm loving this year. I try to stick to affordable decor that can easily be replaced without breaking the bank and anything that is of higher value I try to buy in a color/design I think I will love for a few years. Because of my ever-changing taste in home decor, I wanted to share some of my favorite affordable Christmas decor I've been loving this year. *Most ...
21 Incredible Toddler Boy Room Inspirations To Use
Now that Sebastian is 18months, I've been searching for toddler boy room inspirations on Pinterest trying to find what I wanted his "big boy" room to look like. When I was pregnant with Sebastian, I was obsessed with safari themed nurseries. I love safari animals and tropical jungles (I guess that's where my Brazilian side comes from- I love the Amazon!), so I incorporated it into all baby related events. My baby shower was safari, his announcement pic was of him wrapped in a jungle themed swaddle, his nursery is safari theme, and of course his first birthday was "Wild One" themed. I know, a little overboard. To be honest, I really didn't go all out for his nursery like I ...
Best House Plants From Amazon
I used to spend a lot of money on Amazon, but once I found out you can buy beautiful house plants from Amazon is when I realized I may have a problem. When it comes to flowers, I can never seem to keep them alive for more than a couple of days (my boyfriend stopped giving me flowers for this reason). But when it comes to plants, I'll take care of them better than I take care of myself! Growing up my mother always had so many indoor plants that it started to look like the Amazon rain forest, and I was living for it. Plants were always on my "shopping list" for my apartment but I never went out of the way to buy any. I'm sure like many people, quarantine has made me take on a bunch ...
Small Apartment Christmas Decor on a Budget: 2019
2020 UPDATE: This post features items from 2019 and therefore may not be available anymore. I have updated items with similar ones you can find now, in 2020. Nothing says procrastinator more than putting up a post about Christmas decor A WEEK before Christmas.

Our apartment is small to begin with, so I went for a simple Christmas transformation. And being a new mom who spends majority of her money on baby things, I tried only getting affordable decor. Take a look at how I decorated for the holidays this year and pin your favorite pics ...
Fall Home Decor On A Budget
Decorating your home for each season is nice, but can add up if you don't buy fall decor on a budget. Fall is my favorite season to decorate the house for- it's preparation for the holidays, I'm more active in the fall, and it seems like all the best candle scents are out in the fall. Waking up and being productive is easier, the weather is great, fall fashion is easy and comfortable, there are so many family friendly activities to do, and of course, pumpkin EVERYTHING. I’m just overall a happier person during the fall. Although this year’s “fall” started later (it was 90 degrees end of September this year in Jersey), decorating the apartment helped kick start our season on time. I’m ...
