An Airstream Boutique, Forest Fairy Camp, and a Ukrainian Long Table Dinner

July 14, 2017 By Kari Leave a Comment

Local Love-1Airstream Boutique: I stumbled upon Somewear Boutique on Instagram and I’m so intrigued! Billed as “#yeg’s first mobile consignment boutique,” Creator Jacqueline Kitzan plans to take her followers on a journey as she transforms an old Airstream trailer into a boutique. They’re hoping the public gets excited about the restoration process, viewed via Instagram. Join me in monitoring their progress right here.

GATHER: Shop the Skinny has another GATHER workshop coming up July 26th!  Tickets go on sale this Sunday, July 16 at 7:30 p.m. Don’t take too long: it’ll sell out fast! To learn more about GATHER – go here.

Forest Fairies Summer Camp: Creation Space has a really neat 1/2 day camp coming up called Forest Fairies. It runs 9:00 a.m-noon from July 24-28.Your kids will transform the studio into an enchanted forest and create potions, wands and wings. How adorable is that? It’s open to kids aged 4-10. More information here.

Boutique Sale: One of my favourite local boutiques, Red Ribbon, is having a MASSIVE sale next Wednesday, July 19. They do two big sales a year – Boxing Day and next Wednesday. Dust off your credit card and get your game face on! Shop the sale in-store from 10-7 and online from 6pm-9am the next day (July 20).

Skin Care: Congrats to Marta Caufield who won my Sublime Skin Contouring Giveaway! She’ll enjoy this treatment (valued at over $1200) at Lipstick Empire LaserSpa.

You know what drains a kid's emotional cup - being overscheduled. We've lived it and I'm here to say it's SO MUCH BETTER on the other side.

📍Last year, our goal was to give our oldest (now 8) every opportunity to try things to figure out what he loved. His schedule was packed with activities (I realize this is a privileged point). We were running - sometimes literally - from school to activity every night of the week and on weekends.

📍Fast-forward to this year - he has so much more time to just be a kid and we're all happier! He's picked a couple of things he's passionate about, but we've cut so much out and now most of our after-school time is open. Maybe we'll run an errand, maybe we'll come home and hang out, maybe we'll play at the park with friends and get ice cream. 

✨️ If one day he decides he wants to pour more time into one of his passions - we support that, but for now this is it and it's awesome! 

➡️ Have you lived this? How do you balance wanting to expose your kid to different activities so they find what they love with wanting your kids to just be a kid? Share below.

🚨Two Laundry Hacks!🚨 Share this with a frien 🚨Two Laundry Hacks!🚨 Share this with a friend who could use some laundry help. 🤗

➡️ Do you hate laundry? Love it? I love washing and hanging. My husband is definitely better at folding. ❤️

Tip 1️⃣ has been a game-changer. Fresh laundry and no stinky clothes that have been sitting too long. I schedule mine to end when our baby naps so I can get to it right away. 

Tip 2️⃣ if you want wrinkle-free clothes that don't wear down as quickly - take your clothes from the wash and throw in the dryer for 5-8 mins only and then hang to dry. I do this for everything but stuff that is workout pant or bathing suit material (that goes straight on the rack).

The little time on the dryer is just enough to take the wrinkles out without shrinking or compromising the longevity of your items.

Towels, blankets, and sheets do go in the dryer for a full round. 

Did this help?
