New Year Organization with Gordmans...

My family absolutely loves Gordmans!!

With it being a new year I was thrilled to go on a shopping spree to help get things organized...

The new year is the perfect time to update things in my home. I think it's awesome that Gordmans helps me achieve my goals for so much less!

Organizing has never been easier or more affordable with fun and functional organizational tools, such as soft storage bins, trendy wire containers, luxe velvet clothing hangers and much more.

This is great for showing off pictures of my family...

I think it is so cool that I can change the pictures often and easily with this.

I also got a fabulous mattress pad and some new pillows...

The mattress pad and pillows are so soft and fluffy! Now I sleep better and wake up feeling refreshed!

Next, my pots and pans are so old. Look at this high quality T-fal 14 piece set...

I love that you can get a nice set for such an amazing price! What an incredible wedding gift idea as well. 

Look what else I found in home accents...

As soon as I saw these I got super excited! We are going to London, Paris and New York over the next couple of years so I love these!

We also picked this out to put on our shelf...

It is wonderful to have positive reminders like this in our home! A positive attitude is a must for sure!

I put together a fun baby shower gift as well...

Each one of the cute gifts I picked out were a huge hit! I love that I can get fabulous gifts for all kinds of different occasions. Another thing I love about Gordmans is that the staff is awesome and so helpful and friendly!

We had so much fun on our shopping spree! Since all of Gordmans merchandise is up to 60% off department store prices, this is for sure the place to do all of your shopping!

Scotties Facial Tissues Welcomes The Homeless Into Permanent Housing...

Scotties Facial Tissues Welcomes The Homeless Into Permanent Housing!

January was a great month for 100 homeless people in Boston who are now living in permanent supportive housing thanks to the generosity of The Pine Street Inn! The Pine Street Inn is the largest resource for the homeless in the state of Massachusetts. They provide emergency shelters for the homeless, have street teams, they offer job placement programs as well as many other resources.

In a partnership with Scotties Facial Tissues, the new residents were welcomed into their new homes with comfort care packs. In an effort to kick off 2017 with a worthy cause, Scotties provided each of the 100 residents with a queen-sized fleece blanket, warm slipper socks, a mug with hot cocoa and marshmallows, and of course boxes of  soft Scotties tissues! These small gifts of comfort can be just what may be needed to turn a house into a home. For so many homeless people, who have not had a room of their own for a long time, this acted as one small step in their journey to a better life for themselves.

Maria, who has lived in her beautiful home for the last three months was previously homeless.  She has made her home her own by beautifully decorating it in the style of her native home, Columbia.  She is eager to put the Scotties blanket to use this winter!
