Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Today is St Patrick’s Day! Although it is not my favorite holiday, I enjoy really enjoy holiday. It is a time when Irish music is played, wearing green is common, and celebrating Ireland and it’s culture is at the forefront for a day.

Some are simple while others are more complicated, but they can all can be budget friendly or more lavish. For this post, I picked five of my most common and favorite ways to celebrate the holiday.

Rocket Herb Sweet Basil- What is It and How Does it Work

Published on by essieofwho1 Comment

During a recent shopping trip to a local Dollar Tree, I found a section of the store dedicated to gardening. Normally this section would have a lot of gardening inspired home decor, but this time they had a lot of things that would be perfect for just gardening.

Among the gardening supplies were seeds for flowers and herbs. Also, there was something called a Rocket Herb and Rocket Flower. I heard of them before, but I never saw one for sale in person. I thought about purchasing one of the Rocket Herbs, but I initially had so many doubts about how well it would work, I decided to walk away from it. While looking around the store, I finally decided to purchase one of the Rocket Herbs that grows Sweet Basil.

Published on by essieofwho1 Comment

In a previous post, I talked about part of my December 2023 Bath and Body Works Semi Annual Sale haul. In this post, I will be talking about all the home fragrances I purchased.

For the past few years, I decided to not purchase any home fragrances. This year, I decided to give owning and using home fragrances a try. I liked some of the scent available during the sale, so I stocked up on some of them. I’m not sure if I will end up using them (Except for a trial period), but I hope to use at least one of them.

Bath and Body Works Semi Annual Sale Haul- December 2023 Part 1

Published on by essieofwho1 Comment

In December, I went shopping at Bath and Body Works. It was the start of the semi annual sale, so I wanted to stock up on products I like and want to have available for the next year. I had low expectations for this sale because I didn’t think anything I wanted to purchase would be available. Instead, I was very surprised by the amount of products on sale I wanted and needed! For the first time in a few years, I purchased quite a lot of products! Since I purchased so many products, I split them into two posts. This post is dedicated to all the body products. The second post will be coming out later this week.

Michaels Craft Store Spring 2023 Faux Topiary Decor

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Last week, I went to Michaels Craft store to look for some craft supplies. I ended up not finding anything I needed, but I did find some cute Spring home decor! I didn’t buy anything I saw either, but I did find cute faux topiary decor!

These topiaries are in fun shapes. It has been a while since I saw something like this in person, so I decided to take photographs of them. Sometimes do this in order to see if something will work well in my house. These topiary didn’t look right in my house, but I still enjoyed looking at them.

Spring Solstice is today, so I wanted to write a post to celebrate the new season. After thinking about what to write, I decided to write a post about four of the topiary I saw. I don’t know if anyone cares about them, but I wanted to write something I knew I’d enjoy writing. So here we are! Continue reading “Michaels Craft Store Spring 2023 Faux Topiary Decor” →
