About a year ago, I found a water bottle at Walmart that spoke to me on a deep, emotional level. it had a paisley floral pattern in hues of blue and green, and in a pink box outlined in gold, it read simply “Not My Problem.” And for only $5, I couldn’t pass up the… Continue reading Personalized Tumblers
It’s that time of year again! Time for the final installment of my paper banner. When I think of summer, I think of flip flops and deliciously cool popsicles (my favorite flavor is orange).
