Friday nights at home are my favorite kind of plans.

A simple drink, soft lighting, and a space that finally feels cozy without turning into a project. These remote-controlled puck lights were such an easy upgrade — no wiring, no tools, and I love being able to put them on a timer so everything turns on automatically.

It’s the little changes that make staying in feel just as good as going out.
I linked everything I used so you can recreate this vibe at home. ✨

My craft table finally feels like a space I want to sit down and create in ✨
A little reset, a few simple systems, and suddenly everything feels lighter and easier to use.

This is your reminder that you don’t need a full remodel or expensive storage to get your craft room back on track — sometimes it’s just about clearing surfaces, resetting supplies, and organizing for how you actually create.

If your space feels cluttered or overwhelming, I shared the exact reset checklist I use here 👉

My craft room didn’t work until I quit doing these 3 things 👀
No more overbuying storage. No more copying Pinterest-perfect rooms. No more redoing the same mess every month.

This space finally works because I simplified the system — and yes, I linked everything I use.

Earlier this year, my hair, lashes, brows, and nails were the best they’ve ever been… and then something changed.

My hair started thinning and I honestly panicked. With my thyroid history, I couldn’t tell if it was stress, hormones, or something else entirely.

The only thing I had changed was switching my collagen.

I went back to the one I was using before and within a few weeks my hair filled back in, my lashes and brows thickened, and my nails are noticeably stronger again.

I’m not experimenting with this one anymore — this is the collagen I use consistently.

Vintage plastic canvas ornaments will always have my heart 🤍
Some of these were made by me, and others were stitched by my grandmother back in the 90s. From the barn + silo to the little mailbox, bell, and classic Hershey Kiss—these bring back so many memories.

My kids and I even used to make plastic canvas projects on road trips 🧵✨
I found old pattern books at thrift stores (and linked similar ones online), and I shared a full Hershey Kiss tutorial + 18+ DIY ornament ideas in my full video. https://simplemadepretty.com/diy-christmas-ornaments/
