You may know that I deal with chronic pain on a daily basis following injuries that I sustained after being hit by a car in 2012. My primary sources of pain are my lower lumbar and SI joint. However, I also have pain issues and limitations in my
Mrs. Cozy here with the last blog post of the summer. The bad news is that summer is closing out. The pain is lessened a little by all of the great Labor Day sales. I linked to all of my favorite retailers that have great sales. I also rounded up some of my favorite items from
I know that I've mentioned this before but if I could redecorate my apartment once a year I would be a happy camper! I LOVE home decor! The home section of the Nsale is calling my name. Even if you aren't redecorating
Who else is fully reliant on Amazon Prime?! I frequently say that I'm grateful that I'm injured in this day and age where I can at least get SO much delivered to my door. I get 99% of our household items and groceries delivered and its such a game changer. Without
If money wasn't standing in my way, I would redo every room in my apartment (you know all 2 of them + 2 bathrooms and kitchen haha) once a year without a dot of stress. It would bring me SO much joy. I LOVE the creative process of decorating so much!
My husband is the Christian one in the relationship but he isn't religious so we don't go to church or anything like that for Easter. Still, we like to use it as an opportunity to get together with family so we go to his mom's house every year. I also like every
I grew up with a mom who loved to make holidays and birthdays feel really special. SHE is just really special like that! I love having little festive touches in my home for the holidays. I also like to make cute treats
Does anyone else think that the gift wrap is a part of the gift?! I LOVE and appreciate pretty gift wrap. At this time of year, beautiful gift wrap is especially important because our gifts serve as pieces of decor.
You guys, its almost Chanukah!! I am Jewish and I married a Christian and the result of that is double the holidays. I think that its fun that we get to celebrate both holidays. I'm sure that our kids won't hate the extra festivities or presents either haha.
Is anyone else getting sick of the same old Christmas music already?! I'm not big on the old school classical Christmas music (sue me). I am into a more modern twist that's definitely heavy on pop. Be warned that if you don't like Bieber
I don't even ever stuff the stockings in our home but I LOVE having them! Maybe this year I will stuff Jay's/both of ours haha. I love how cuddly and cozy these stockings are! I could sleep with them and cuddle them but instead I choose to be normal and hang
I always think that spending money on your home is worth it compared to spending money other ways because it's where you spend time every single day! I have a bit of an addiction for holiday decor and could buy that stuff non stop haha.
I LOVE creating a tablescape! It was by far my favorite part of playing hostess for my Friendsgiving dinner. I wanted to keep it clean, neutral but have soft undertones. I also wanted to distract from the fact that it was set up on
I like to do a little Halloween decor coffee tablescape each year. This year I had Jay carve the pumpkins haha. Other years I've put fresh flowers into large pumpkins but I didn't want to spend money on flowers just for them to die within a week.
I'd say that candles are 100 percent necessary for creating a cozy home. I am a candle addict and if I'm being totally honest, kind of a candle snob. I discovered how much better quality candles are. They smell so much better and reach such a wider area
Is it just me or are traditional "gift baskets" ridiculously outdated?! Does anyone actually eat the apple in the baskets or remember to bake with the mix from them?! I get it though, it's hard (and time consuming) to think of cute combinations
Three years ago we moved in to #CozyCuratorHome (except there was no Cozy Curator then). It feels like forever ago and yet at the same time like time is moving too fast. Jay and I must have talked about living
Let's be real, even when I'm decorating for a holiday I'm not bringing much color into my home. I think I might be allergic to color in my home decor! My least favorite color of all: orange! Talk about scary for Halloween! My husband always mocks me by saying
Our patio is my little oasis! I know how rare outdoor living space is in a city so I don't take this area for granted! When we looked at apartments back in 2015, we hoped to move into our current complex. The complex has three huge buildings in it but
The guy that we bought the apartment from added an awesome TV unit built in that had an orangish wood wash. It was really cool but definitely not my style. I *maturely* agreed to live with it for a year and see if it grew on me.
Beautifying can be such a fun or daunting process, depending on the setup. An organized makeup storage arrangement can help the process go by smoothly. It is so nice
Our guys deserve a little extra love on Valentine's Day too. These small gifts aren't themed for Valentine's Day because not enough guys want to be decked out in hearts.
What if you could make your tree serve as a decorative statement piece as well? Here are some tips on how to buy and place some killer ornaments on your tree.
Who decided that Christmas wreaths can only be red and green? You know that “rule” that states that wreaths need to be made from pine and/or ivy and can only incorporate poinsettias? Well, I'm breaking it!
Are you ready to deck the halls and the shelves for Christmas? Here is how you can do it for only $81!
Great news–you have just been handed a “prescription” to take a nice bubble bath. Adulting can be so daunting sometimes…am I right?!

Who else works from home? It definitely has its share of advantages and disadvantages. The top advantages for me include no commute time, having access to your kitchen, being able to wear sweatpants and most importantly
