Cozy Cabins

Our family has a small cabin in the woods, the perfect spot for a husband hunting ducks and a wife who loves to bass fish. It's become a haven for our three daughters, too. Since they were toddlers, our girls have loved camp sleepovers, cuddled inside their tents. But once winter hits, we all head inside to a warm fireplace and a cup of cocoa.
Designing and decorating a home-away-from home can range from stark simple to full-blown elaborate. My favorite cabins includes a mix of rustic and farmhouse country. I've collected several designs on my Pinterest boards. Here are a few of my favorites, both inside and out.

Relaxing (and Low-cost) Bedtime Routine

"Sweet dreams. Sleep tight. We love you. Good night." Such a sweet childhood saying should be repeated each night, along with your prayers. But getting a good night's sleep isn't always that easy.

Healthy sleep habits can improve your quality of life - and make your mornings much happier. Many sleep specialists suggest a standard list of ideas to get to sleep - no naps, daily exercise, a cool room, comfy bedding, and a regular sleep schedule.

But I'm a big believer of including some simple luxuries to my end-of-the-day routine. They add extra relaxation to bedtime - without the high price!

1. Warm bath - using Dr. Teal's Epsom Salt with lavender

2. Yoga in bed - BuzzFeed video on YouTube

3. Sleep app on phone - Sleep Machine Lite (free)

4. Lotion for hands & feet - Soap & Glory Hydrating Cream

5. Read the "old-fashioned" way - People magazine, on paper not a tablet, offers juicy gossip - unlike a "stay up all night, page-turner" novel!

6. Start designing a set on Polyvore - 

But just make a rough draft to be finished tomorrow.

You'll feel creative and get sleepy - without the time consumed by Pinterest!
