Summer Sangria INGREDIENTS Real Sangria (or red win base works, too!)Any fruit on hand (I used honeycrisp apple and orange)Lemon wedgeLime wedgeGinger ale (or sprite, club soda, or light-colored carbonated bev of your choice) DIRECTIONS Take your fave tumbler (like the skinny mini we used) and fill it ½ way with ice.

Classic Blue is the Pantone color of the year, so I am LOVING this #brandspiration. The classic blue color is timeless and works well in a wide variety of formats.So, I've put together a few posts for you to get inspired for your own business (if this is the look you're going for). Keep in mind, the right branding for your business is SO important, and colors, imagery, fonts, and textures all play into that. If blue tones are not what you're looking for for your business, then your only takeaway from this post would be about the process of finding the right colors (not the actual colors themselves... make sense?).

Let's create a mood board! What the heck is a mood board? Glad you asked! A mood board is a great way to get down your initial thoughts and ideas about what you want your branding to be. It usually includes images and color swatches that portray the "feelings" and esthetic you want your brand to represent.For example, if your business falls within the health and fitness categories and you're gearing your services towards women, you'll probably want to give your audience a sense of strength, confidence, and empowerment. How do we do that? 1) Start envisioning what images come to your mind when thinking of these keywords. Is it a woman lifting weights? Is it a woman practicing yoga outdoors? Whatever it may be, start...

Hello to my fellow wine-o's. I wanted to put together a quick DIY for you to show you just how easy it is to create a wine rack right in your kitchen. Quick backstory: we moved into our new house last October and our kitchen has a little nook that I always thought would be perfect for a wine/coffee station (they mix, right?). Until now, I didn't know how I wanted to achieve that or how I could do it. I've seen tutorials on making your own racks and I knew there were ones you could buy on Amazon, but nothing ever seemed to catch my eye.Now, don't get it twisted, I didn't manufacture these racks myself or build out anything...
