Here's what's actually in my bag: 🧺Collapsible bag (fits everything, takes up nothing) 🧀 Charcuterie board with a lid (snacks that feel fancy but take zero effort) 🏖️ Towels ☀️ Sunscreen 💧 Water + snacks 👒 Hat 📖 A book I might actually read 🛋️ Zipper blanket 🪑 Backpack chair (game changer) 🪣 Buckets + water toys 🖌️ Old paint brushes for water painting (trust me on this one) The paint brushes are free, keep kids busy for 45 minutes, and every single kid at the splash pad will want one. You're welcome. LTKmomlife LTKSeasonal

Love this slim toaster that barely takes up any room on the kitchen countertop! It is great for small kitchens or even tiny homes and RVs.

We love these new dining chairs. They are super comfortable and well-made! They are more of a French or European style, which fits in well with the rest of the transitional style dining room.

A wooden playset with swings, a rock wall, a treehouse, a slide, and a sand pit. This is the kind of backyard setup that keeps kids outside all day. No screens, just fresh air and imagination.

Command hooks and broom grippers are such a quick and easy way to organize your cleaning supplies! I have them on the inside of one or lockers, but you can put them on walls, doors, cabinets, etc. to create your own cleaning supply storage area.

Loved this book! Read it on vacation, and it was the perfect poolside read.

This shelving unit helps keep our kitchen so organized (and pretty!). I definitely don't have enough storage room in our small cabinet pantry, so these open shelves serve as a second pantry with pretty food storage with labels. Highly recommend if you have a small kitchen! #kitchen #smallkitchen #kitchenorganization

We went back and forth on what to put under the playset and rubber mulch won. Cushioned enough for falls, does not scatter everywhere, and holds up through all the Pacific Northwest rain. Wish we had done it sooner.

If you have the desire to read through the entire bible, this book is so helpful. It breaks it up into easy chunks to read every day and provides a small area for journaling. It is also so pretty, which helps my brain!

Everything you need to make your own lavender bath tea bags! Just combine 1 cup of oats, 1 cup Epsom salt (lavender scented), and 1/4 cup dried lavender flowers, and then put them in disposable tea bags. They make GREAT gifts and are very easy to make.

Good rooms are built slowly...over it. I'm all for slow decorating and that's exactly what I've done in our dining room with a transitional style.

Color psychology is real and green signals to your brain safety and calm, so that's why I keep coming back to it. I'm loving this sage green paint color that we chose for the walls in our dining room!

These outdoor chairs have been the longest lasting items in our backyard. We've had them 6 years now and they look just as good today as they did when we got them - but everything else in the backyard has been replaced! Highly recommend if you're looking for affordable outdoor chairs that actually last! #outdoorfurniture #backyard #patio
