A Cute Way To Display Your Headbands {Mission Organization}

Growing up with 4 sisters has it’s perks. Most of the time we are able to share our clothes, accessories and everything in between. But growing up in a family of 14 people has not only made me understand the value of the little things in life. I have learned to find the beauty in everything. I love taking something simple and making it look beautiful. Today I am going to show how I took an old oatmeal container and made it into a headband holder in 5 easy steps. If I can do this, anyone can!

Here is a short video showing you just how easy this is!

I couldn’t think of a better way to display your headbands. How do you store or display your headbands at home?

The Most Amazing Pomegranate Lemonade {That gives you energy}

I can’t believe that I haven’t posted anything in a long time! Things around here have been a little crazy. I have been working two jobs, buying a house, planning a wedding and spending some time with the most amazing fiancé ever, all while living in a house with 9 other people.

I can honestly say that if it wasn’t for my daily vitamins and this energy tea, I don’t think I would be able to make it through all of this.

My vitamins keep me sane and focused all day long and my tea gives me the energy to last the entire day without getting all jittery or crashing come night fall (AKA midnight).

You only need 3 things:

1. Lemons
2. Stevia – I used liquid although powder works just as well

3. Energizing Pomegranate Tea – There is also a Energizing Green Tea (I personally prefer the green tea hot apposed to iced but both work well.

Here is a short video showing you just how I make my famous Pomegranate Lemonade Iced Tea.

It is just 4 simple steps:

1. Fill cup up with ice and water.

2. Open tea and pour it in.
3. Squeeze a wedge of lemon into your drink.

4. Add Stevia to taste and stir.

There you have it, My Famous Pomegranate Lemonade!!!!

I have had so many people ask me how I make this energy tea and I finally got around to making a video for you.

This is just one of my favorite types of teas. Are you a tea drinker? Do you have a recipe that you would like me to try? I would love to know what other people are drinking!
