A Crunch for Every Season…

….

We love our Crunch over here. No matter the holiday or the ocassion, this is always a top seller in our home. It might be the taste – the sweetness from the white chocolate, the crunchiness from the pretzels and puffs and the hint of salt from the macadamia nuts. Whatever it is, it´s highly addictive and a match made in heaven !!!

The 4 key ingredients are always the same

– puffs

– macadamia nuts

– little pretzels 

– white chocolate

… and then I add seasonal things. I love to add little chocolate eggs for our bunny bait and sprinkles and M&M´s is vibrant Spring colors like green and yellow. I have also found little carrot sprinkles. How adorable are these.

Christmas Crunch

My favorite Christmas colors are red and green and a frosty white. This is also how our Christmas crunch looks. I add red and green M&M´s to the mix as well as little marshmallows and Christmas themed sprinkles. Can you spot the little trees???

As far as storage goes – if it lasts that long 😉 – you can use some airtight container like Tupperware or Mason Jars. If you want to gift it I would recommend little sheer fabric or plastic bags. You can add tags as well or little cards.

Toddler Art Cart Organization….

….

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

I have shared our art corner in our living room years ago and since we have moved everything into our playroom (reveal coming soon) we have added lots and lots of things to it. I have rearranged it several times but I think it finally looks good the way it is (might change my opinion in a little bit but for now it is all right, also this always depends on what art and crafts materials we have at the moment).

Art Cart Organization

We have the Ikea Rashult cart and it has the perfect size for all of our stuff. It has three stories and we have hanging container on one side to so it holds a lot of stuff.

The hanging container are also from Ikea but you can buy them on amazon or Temu as well. 

Organizing has always been my thing but to be honest it is hard with two small children but definitely manageable. So let´s start with the top storey. I have a little wooden divider (it can be also used for mail or clutches) and I have put all of our sticker and drawing books in there. We have a bunch and this ways we can finally see what we got. 

On the middle storey I have another divider to hold different kinds of papers/sheets. We also have felt sheets and foam rubber sheets here as well as sticker and a little basket for loose sticker and our googly eyes.

You can find all the small things on the lower level like washi tapes, erasers is cute shapes, stencils and anything else that could find a place in an art cart. 

I have got the golden letters on the hanging bins from amazon and it definitely helps to clean up faster and easier when you know where stuff goes.

How to add that Western Stlye into your Daily Outfits….

….

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate LInks-not sponsored)

I have always loved the Western fashion long before it got trendy in any kind of way but we have been watching Yellowstone recently and I have gobbling up all the amazing looks from the actors and decided to incorporate more of my favorite pieces into my everyday looks. You don´t have to go full on cowboy but can still wear these.

I am sharing my Pullman City looks as well again. It was a head to toe Western theme you do not have to follow but you can get some inspo from there and eventually add some of those great pieces to your wardrobe too.

 

Pullman City Western Styles I have worn

 

 

How to incorporate Western pieces into your daily style

Now this is the tricky part – what to wear every day ?? In fact you can add everything into your daily style just in moderation. One or two pieces are enough if you just wnat to point it the right direction.

Pieces to incorporate

Clothing

– bootcut jeans

– plaid shirts

– shearling coats

– flowy maxi dresses (preferred with a millefleurs or plaid print)

– vests

– denim button up

– suede leather skirt

– graphic shirts

 

Accessories

– boots

– hats

– belts with western themed buckles

– turquoise jewelry

– printed scarves-

 

Prints:

– horse print

– paisley of course

– actez print

– plaid

 

Textures

– suede

– leather

– fleece

 

The color palette is also very important here. If you want to fit it I would highly suggest to stick to earthy tones like all hues of brown, rust or orange and an olive shade of green.

Weekly Review #5…

….

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

It has been quite the busy week and I haven´t been home as much as I´d prefer to be but no one got sick so I guess I have to be content with that. The up side of that are much more styled outfits cause I usually am a little more casual at home. 

Meals 

I haven´t cooked a single meal last week. It was all take-out or girl dinner or anything I have found in the fridge. Will be better next week. I promise.

Fashion

Since we have started Yellowstone I am head over heels again in the Western Trend. A pair of boots here and a pretty paisley print there. A hat or a neckerchief. Isn´t it great that we can wear what we want wherever we are. 

 

Activities 

We visited my grandma on the weekend as she turned 80 and we also had a Raclette lunch with some of our friends on Sunday.

 

Carneval season has started and we have about three to four parties to attend in costumes. We are fairies thie year. Emilia has choosen our costumes. I was almost sure that we would be a bunch of Elsas.

Misc

I finally got to try some new hairstyles on Emilia. She has refused any kind of hairstyle for the last couple of weeks and I was very sad cause I love to style her hair. The bows are from SheIn and the hair inspo is @navygraceblog.

 

Quote of the Week

A head full of fears has no space for dreams!
