You're Invited!

Life is luck, make it. (Mother Teresa)

Hello lovelies! I hope you had a fun and safe weekend. Mine was full of adventure with Hurricane Irene knocking out our power on Saturday. The weather was mild, but windy, so my girlfriend and I went shopping. He spent Sunday golfing, and I prepared for the week with the usual grocery shopping + laundry combo.

August is coming to a close and my 2rd blogiversary is around the corner. In a way it feels like I just got started, but it's also had to remember when this little corner of the web wasn't a big part of my life. Last year I celebrated with 32 Days and this year I am inviting you to join in on the fun. The past two years have been filled with inspiration, fun and sparkle — and I couldn't have done it without you by my side.

Guest Posts I've really enjoyed hosting guest bloggers these past few months. If you are interested in sharing a piece, get in touch. There's been a wide range of topics so far — from good eats and finding balance, to creativity and commitment.

Giveaways It's been too long since my last giveaway. Featuring photography, art, paper goods, jewelry, home decor items and other delightful treats is my favorite part of giveaway goodness. If you would like to provide an item (or a few) for an upcoming giveaway, please let me know!

Truth, Love & Insight How have you been liking the Truth, Love & Insight series? I think it's always so interesting to learn about how my favorite bloggers got started and what motivates them to keep going. I have some great ladies scheduled for the next few weeks, but I would love to hear if you are interested in being featured — or if you have any suggestions for future interviews.

Sparkle Swap Stay tuned! I am planning to host a gift swap soon. The theme will be… you guessed it… infusing sparkle and joy into our swap buddy's life with a package full of thoughtful treats.

Muse Memos There's a small section to the right titled Extra Inspiration (click here to view if you're in a reader). Muse Memos will begin November 1, but you can sign up today to stay in the loop. I'll be sending bits of love and inspiration your way — directly to your inbox.
