FREE DIY Mini-Course: Rediscover Your Creative Side

Shared on

In December I gave my husband the gift of Comcast cable for his birthday so he could watch all the Blazer games. We've been loving all the games and my daughter and I have been re-falling in love with all things HGTV so much so that I just might go to Pinterest and start a DIY project. The problem? I feel like I lack the skills to do these projects well and my perfectionism cuts me short every time I actually try to accomplish something crafty. Are you the same way? Worried you don’t have the time for furniture painting? Can’t believe you’ve got the right skills for photography? Petrified of embarrassing your friends with amateurish attempts at Keep Reading

HiLine Coffee: $10 off $10 code + enter to win a Keurig + $100 in coffee pods

Shared on

HiLine, one of my favorite online coffee sites, is now offering K-Cups for the Keurig! Want to know the HiLine difference? All of our K-Cups are roasted, packed and shipped to order - whereas K-Cups in a grocery store were likely roasted 6+ months prior to purchase. Independent reviews rated HiLine K-Cups substantially higher than any Starbucks (and ours are priced considerably less). Because we don't have the overhead that big corporations do, we're able to invest in high quality beans and pass the savings onto our customers. Not only does HiLine carry pods for Keurig, they also offer pods for Nespresso, whole bean coffee, and ground coffee packs. Keep Reading
