How to Unlock Your Happy Place with Planner Stickers


As many of my readers know, I plan wedding and events along with selling my handmade products on my website.  This keeps me very busy, so you might wonder why in the world do I need “happy place?”  Unbelievably, everyone needs a happy place!  For me, it is a place where I can go to escape and relax the daily stressors in life. 

Designing and printing my stickers for my planner on while sitting on my deck in the spring and summer is awesome and it provides my skin vitamin D from the sun.  The other happy place is walking my Yorkshire Terrier Sasha the Dog at the beach or reading on the beach or my deck.  
Some people like retail therapy while others enjoy art therapy. Either way, you need a break and step away from the office to do something you enjoy.  I believe everyone needs those moments in life that makes you feel better and it helps me contribute to my obsession about printables, stickers, using my paper and online organizational planner.  This helps me keep track of everything that is going on in my business life that is my website, wedding planning and event planning, social media marketing, marketing, web development and graphic design.  With everything I do, I could easily become overwhelmed if I did not unlock that happy place each day!    

Can you name three happy places where you go to escape and relax? If one of your happy places is printing printables and stickers, this will make you happy and put you in your happy place!  I just designed new Beauty and Spa Printable Stickers today!  To download your free printable stickers, please click the link below.

The Ultimate Makeup Kit List


I attended our first Live Beauty Week with Tonya at Elite Secrets via Facebook!  I learned so many things from her Beauty Week like the makeup techniques I was doing all wrong, but there were and some makeup techniques I was doing right! 

In regards to makeup application, I had no idea there are three primers for your skin, which are eye, face and lip primer.  I will not go any further with everything I learned from a professional makeup artist, but I will share tips on how to organize your nail and makeup kit and hair accessories. 

After attending her Elite Secrets beauty week, I thought about organizing and take inventory of my caboodle makeup and nail kits and hair accessories.  I pulled out her kit out from my nightstand that evening, took it out to the kitchen table and reviewed my makeup cheat sheet that has all my hair, makeup and nail products and accessories listed.  





The result of the organization was that I had tons of cosmetics to dispose of in the trash, which was unfortunate and costly.  I decided right then to take charge of the moment to re-organize everything.


What I Designed for My Storage: 
• Disposable Labels (Freebie)
• Makeup Cleaning Labels (Freebie)
Traveling Makeup Kit Necessities
Ultimate Hair Brush Guide
• 12 Makeup Brush You Need

Confessions of a Librocubicularist

Books come in a variety of shapes, sizes and genres.  There are many book styles available; such as, paperback, hardcover or eBooks. However, I must share this secret obsession with you…did you know that I am a Librocubicularist? I am indeed a Librocubicularist and you are probably wondering what a Librocubicularist might be, right? The Urban Dictionary describes it as ‘ (n).  A person who reads in bed’ and pronounced lib-ro-kyoo-bi-kyoo-la-rist.  

While my husband sleeps at night, I am up until 2 a.m. reading tons of eBooks from weddings, events, law to marketing books.  I read anywhere from 50 to 100 books a week or more. One of my favorite places to find eBooks would be on Pinterest.  I love Pinterest and you can find tons of free eBooks to read on their website.  If you need to find specific book genres, just type it in the search criteria and the results will produce an eBook for you. 

There are some other excellent places I found eBooks at like Google eBookstore, Open Library, Google Play, Smashwords and Goodreads.  I just get excited writing about the tonight's finds, which are Smashwords and Goodreads!   For example, if you are planning a wedding, I found a couple wonderful books on Smashwords I will be downloading tonight and they are ‘Rings on a Shoestring’ and ‘Planning Your Wedding Flowers: Secrets and Tips for Budget Wedding Flowers.”  

And do not forget your local library because there are Free eBooks and eMagazines available to read too.  Here are some places I have found Free articles or eMagazines.  The Flipboard App and website offers a variety of free articles and save to your personal magazine.  Another app to utilize would be Pocket. You can save directly from your browser or from apps like Twitter, Flipboard, Pulse and Zite into your Pocket.  The best part about Pocket would be that you do not need an internet connection to connect to read your saved articles or videos. 

The Best eMagazines that are available to read Free and Paid Subscriptions would be Magzter, Joomag, Google Currents (Newsstand), Scribd and Issuu. With all these free resources for eBooks and eMagazines, I believe you will be set with reading material for a while.  As it has been said, "A Book is Gift You Can Open Again and Again."
