If Real Life Were Like Pinterest

I could pair skinny jeans with the perfect fall boot.

My hair would always be in perfectly messy braids, or wind-tossed curls.

Most of the furniture in my home would be handmade from repurposed and reclaimed wood.

My pillows and curtains would all be chevron.  Oh, and I'd have curtains.

I would swim in a sea of printables. 

My homemade cakes and cookies would put bakeries out of business.

I could eat those cakes and cookies and still wear my skinny jeans.

I would know the right camera settings for every kind of light.

A scarf would be part of daily wear.  Usually, it would be a scarf I made, probably from a T-shirt.


I would know how to make all of my own cleaning products. They would all be environmentally friendly and contain items I have at home.

My crock pot would be in constant use, making gourmet, non-crock pot meals. 

All important messages could be written on things I have painted with chalkboard paint.

I would know the ten most important things to say to my loved ones daily.  I would say them.

My fireplace mantle would be decorated for each season and holiday.  Sometimes just for Mondays in November.


I would own two Expedit bookshelves.  One as is, and one that I've hacked to look like an antique dresser. 

The greater part of every day would be spent doing learning activities with my children.  When I'm not baking.

 I would sew my own clothes, mostly from old T-shirts. 

I would know the gluten-free or paleo version of all my favorite foods. 

My home would be decorated with crafts I made with things like toilet paper rolls, coffee filters, and empty coffee cans.

I know how to apply eyeliner for day and eyeliner for night. I would know there is a difference.

My nails would not only be painted, but they would feature a design or a gradient of color.

The only bread in my kitchen would be homemade without a breadmaker.

 

I would wear outfits, not clothes.

Using only five simple moves at home, I would have sculpted abs.  Even when pregnant.

When pregnant, I would always look peaceful and beautiful. 

Cauliflower would replace potatoes and pizza dough, and the boys in my house wouldn't notice.

 

Potatoes would be used only for stamping.  Unless they are sweet potatoes.  Then they will be eaten with every meal in some capacity.

Tables and beds and end tables would be made from wooden pallets.  Coffee tables and shelves from wooden crates.

A little spray paint could fix anything. 

And...I could wear skinny jeans.
