I've been designing Wedding Bouquets since I was 19. My favorite style is the Wildflower look. This one is made with silk poppies, white roses and dried grasses (that hold up well).

CHAMOMILE tea is actually pretty effective for insomnia and anxiety ! Just a cup of tea (always use organic) at bedtime can make a noticeable difference in helping you fall asleep.
It contains apigenin, a flavinoid that can bind to certain receptors in the brain which reduce anxiety.

Seriously, try walking off your stress. We, as humans, so often complicate everything and overlook the simple remedies because it seems too easy. Walking is a gentle, non pharmaceutical way to get rid of anxiety and get healthier. #walkinginnature #walkingforhealth #walkinthewoods #blackhills

I always ordered chickens by egg color so we could have rainbow 🌈 eggs like this. It was so much fun to watch the "Easter Egger" chickens grow up and guess what color eggs they would produce. Got these from a friend. Really wanting a flock again! #chickengirls #eastereggers #backyardchickensofinstagram #backyardchicken #eastereggs🐣 #eastercrafts
