Target Wedding + A Giveaway!

Did you know you can register for your wedding at Target? I'll be honest, I didn't know they offered this service until a few months ago! I wasn't surprised though since Target is my go-to store for all housewares, electronics, a quick last minute outfit, and beauty supplies. They have everything! I know most of my friends also love Target and many of them will choose to register there when their special day comes.

In my experience patio accessories often don't make it to wedding registries but they definitely should! Eating breakfast outside, sipping coffee in the mornings, hosting family and friends for a late lunch, or having hot chocolate next to an outdoor fire, having the perfect patio or backyard set up is essential! Threshold has all kinds of cute products to spruce up your outdoor space and show off your style. Target has tons of quality outdoor decor that is both functional and has great design. Here are a few of my favorite outdoor products at Target.

 

Sunrise Farm Outdoor Lights

Outdoor Toss Pillows

 

Outdoor Firebowl

Isn't that firebowl fantastic?! If only I had a bigger patio! The best part about being registered at Target is that while I'm there getting the happy couple the perfect gift I can pick up something for myself! ;)

Pick up something for yourself too! You can win a $25 eGift card to Target by going to the Target Registry page, choosing your favorite registry item from the wedding catalog, and leave a comment below with the URL and why you love it! This giveaway will run from 2/11-2/16 at 11:59 PM PST! Good luck!!

January Recap

^Jeff and I on NYE!

It feels so strange to be in this space typing again! I've put a lot of pressure on myself to only create unique content for this blog and it made me hate blogging. I started this space as a creative outlet and decided I don't give a rats you know what if I lose followers or if no one comments. I'm going to write about what I feel like whether it's "unique" or not. January started off with the flu for me and lasted from start to finish about eight days. I've never had a flu shot mostly because it seemed like the people who got the flu shots were the ones who got sick! Anyone else feel like that? I will definitely be getting one next year though. I challenged myself to a "no spend January" where I would only buy things I truly needed (or gifts!). I can't say I passed but I definitely did a lot of cutting back and that felt good. My passion these days definitely lies in cooking. I LOVE trying new recipes and can sincerely say I've made about fifty percent of the pinned recipes on my Eat + Drink board. I'm considering a new blog series where I review recipes I've made. I got a 50 mm lens for Christmas and using it to take pictures of my masterpieces makes me happy. These Buffalo Cauliflower Bites were AMAZING. Perfect for a Saturday late lunch side. I know I wanted to share my decorating updates in our new space but I can't say there's been much progress. We have a beer themed kitchen and I recently added this print to it. Jeff and I are big craft beer snobs and since he already had a light up Green Flash neon sign and a Guinness mirror it made sense for us. I'm trying to be really intentional with our decorating because I like change but I've recently become quite cheap and don't like spending money on things that don't have long term value (experiences come first).  Anyways, long story short, decorating is going to take us a long time. I'd love to add this patio set from Target soon though. We're having a warm winter and I want to drink coffee outside in the mornings! I usually set goals every month and have debated sharing them here as well to help me keep myself accountable. I've decided to this month to see how it goes.
