GOODNESS, WHERE HAVE WE BEEN?!

Hello, Universe, TMS readers and marshmallow-lovin’ friends!

My last blog post was published on May of 2017…. uhhhh, it’s now November of 2020. What just happened?!

20190616_131225

What happened was LIFE. I went into semi-retirement after my contract ended with KRAFT. My priorities shifted completely and I evolved personally and professionally. Although my love for marshmallows, creativity, and entrepreneurship continues, I’ve decided to take a step back from The Marshmallow Studio until I find my new purpose that aligns with who I am now.

So who am I now? Welp…. let me tell ya. [Read more…]

{RECAP} 2016 – A YEAR OF HIGH AND LOWS!

2016 recap post

This has become a The Marshmallow Studio tradition. Every year, I put together these RECAPS posts that outline everything we did the prior year. They are nothing but pure happiness and fluffy goodness.

I’m sorry to say, this annual recap is a quite a bit different 🙁

2016 was a very difficult year for us. That’s personally speaking not for the company. It challenged us physically, emotionally and mentally. I took it especially hard.

This post is meant to not only celebrate a new beginning but to also hopefully help someone who may be passing through a dark place.

KAMILLA’S GIRLY WOODLAND OWL PARTY

It’s been quite a long time since I styled a party for my kiddos. Between trying to sell our previous house and getting settled into our new one, we’ve kept celebrations small.

With my little Kamilla’s 2nd birthday approaching fast, I wanted to do something special for her. We hardly did anything for her 1st birthday.

Not going to lie here, it was a challenge getting my creative juices going. For so long my focus had been in home decorating & improvements that I hadn’t allowed myself to craft much. [Read more…]

SUMMER OF A LIFETIME!

Hello Summer

This will be our first summer living on an island. An island where it’s not 120° degrees outside like it was in Las Vegas for about half of the year! This means lots of outdoor time ahead for us. It’s also the first time the boys are off of school for the whole summer. They’ve been in year-round schools since preschool. This means momma is going to need some help keeping them entertained.

It’s important for me to not just keep them busy but to see them learn new things and to build beautiful memories together all while having fun.

I know of an online store that I can always find what I need and even things I didn’t know I needed LOL. Trust me, there’s nothing as valuable as a one-stop shop with affordable prices and huge product selection when life’s busy enough. I’ve been shopping at Oriental Trading for all my parties and special occasion events for many years now.

 Let’s go down memory lane…..

All these parties feature fabulous goodies from Oriental Trading:
