@goldenthreadinc, how did you know I’ve always w

@tonya.riner.makeup helped me as a Mom make up for

@tonya.riner.makeup helped me as a Mom make up for what I needed as a teenager! 😊

When I was first learning to do my makeup my Mom rented a Donna Mills VHS and I watched it on the VCR. 📺 Can you picture it? Knots Landing, pink and blue iridescent eyeshadow and sexy-ness. I was so confused. I think my 7th grade self was offended and turned off. So I never felt fully equipped at doing my own make up and I’ve always wished it felt fun and creative.

Fast forward decades later, I have a daughter and she loves makeup! I knew if this time ever came, I would want to make up for what my mom didn’t know I needed: a little help and a different perspective.

Around this same time my sister @cstyleblog (who has so much fun with makeup and is very talented with it (she did my makeup for my wedding)) started collaborating with the very best makeup artist to the stars @tonya.riner.makeup! While they were having fun together, I got to spend time getting to know Tonya and hear her thoughts on makeup. She is a blast and sweet and our philosophy on beauty aligns, tell it to your neighbor! I knew she was someone I could trust to teach my daughter AND me!

So we had a makeup lesson with Tonya one afternoon at our house back in February. I think all three of us would tell you it was so relaxing! The most mother/daughter fun of the year! I've changed the way I do my make up and more importantly, I feel confident about it and Lilly has all the skills! 🙌🏼 Tonya worked with the makeup we had and when something was missing, she suggested something from her tool box. My favorite new tool is a blush and highlighter stick, a game changer for me! (It’s in my amazon shop if you’re curious. linkinbio)

And if you, too are interested in making up for how you were taught about makeup check out @tonya.riner.makeup and email her about a lesson at bookings@tonyariner.com. I love her and the way she spoke to my daughter! ♥️

Who knew @command ceiling hooks existed?! They are

Who knew @command ceiling hooks existed?! They are supposed to be for 0.5 lb but I took a risk and hung these approx. 5 lb amazing 😘 flocked skeletons from them and they worked! Our crown molding is flat at the top so I felt good about trying it out on painted wood trim (swipe left to see). But I don’t know how they would do on a typical painted drywall ceiling though and I haven’t removed them yet either, use at your own risk! 😬 If you’ve tried it, let us know in the comments. 👇 And if you’re interested in ordering the skeletons from 👉@neighborhood_popupshop, she’s offering FREE Houston delivery for tomorrow afternoon! Black and White skeletons are still in stock! 📣💀

🎈Happy Friday night, neighbors! @neighborhood_p

If you get the chance to fall asleep looking at Ky

If you get the chance to fall asleep looking at Kyle Field, you’ll wake up to it, too! 😘

This is a throwback from the spring because I loved seeing all of the images from yesterday’s Aggie football game! It reminded me I hadn’t shared this highlight of our stay at @tamuhotelcc yet!

Here are three things about our experience:

1. Aggie parents might want to add a stay at @tamuhotelcc to their list of family trips to take. Just for this view! And while there, visiting the Bonfire Memorial is best at dusk. Book it!
2. Our trip to Aggieland was research for a big school project. If you are one who struggles to get this kind of work done, find a way to make it fun. Some of us need to be entertained if we want it retained! 🙋🏼‍♀️👦🏻🧠
3. If your room has a view, follow the wonder of a kid’s request and sleep with the drapes open. 😊

Have a great day, neighbors!

The first day of 8th grade came with cheer duties

The first day of 8th grade came with cheer duties and a proud little brother who jumped out of the car to be in the picture, too! ♥️ When we least expect it, parents! 📣
