    Styling Leggings with Class : Country Wardrobe Staples

    August 23, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Leggings are a Country Wardrobe Staple Ladies, have you ever had your pant hem get coated in mud? Leggings. Needed to prevent tick bites? Leggings. Cold? Leggings. Legs not shaved? Leggings. Make your legs look slim….black leggings. City women can afford to flit from style to style because their wardrobes are based on looks alone. Country life means we just wear what works even if it’s not “in” anymore….it might be “in” for country life! We need our clothes to work for weather, for pests, for comfort of bending and gardening or milking a cow. Even if you do not do these things outdoors, homemaking work is the same kind…

    Dressing Feminine for the Christian Woman

    July 25, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Ladies, Why talk about dressing femininely as a Christian woman? It comes from the truth that God created us uniquely woman from man. Our dress acknowledges and honors this design. Fashion can be a difficult and overwhelming topic for women so this is a topic I approach with the utmost gentleness. I never want a woman to walk away feeling discouraged on this topic. This should be a fun discovery, not a burden! First, there is a scripture that is important to know so that we can exercise discernment about what is pleasing to God. “A woman shall not wear a man’s garment, nor shall a man put on a…

    Now Hiring: Full Time Homemaker Job

    May 10, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Ladies, Were you trained to love your husband and children, or to work at home? We live in a culture that trains women for everything except the family and home. This part of a woman’s life is patently ignored for the workforce. We are mostly trained to make money, shake hands, build business and to feel like this is where our value lies. No wonder so many women suffer from depression at home and after having children. On top of her body adjusting, she was never given permission to be at home with her babies but sustains an expectation to jump back into a paycheck job sometimes while a newborn…

    Happy Resurrection weekend. There are no words to praise Jesus enough. There are no words. I was outside one day and looked up and saw the clouds in a cross and took this photo. We all need to look up more. “The LORD lives, and blessed be my rock, and exalted be the God of my salvation” Psalm 18:46

    Ladies, Homemakers are the manager of the home, and one of the most important parts she manages is the decor. People think of decor as being add-ons, extras, froofy, maybe just optional. Decor is not optional. Decorating is not just a hobby. Decorating is a part of the home, and it is a part of the homemaker’s job. Decor is already happening in your home. Everything that needs to be in the home is a decor item. Can you see it? That’s a part of your decor! Being the manager of the home means assessing these items to make them as beautiful as possible. The sunrise and sunset could have…

    5 Homemaking Tips for SCENT

    April 13, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Pungent cat urine. Strong dog smell. Dirty socks. Musty. Tuna fish. Overwhelming synthetic fragrance. Smells that smacked me in the face as the door swung open and jolly loving people welcomed me into their homes. As I gasped for air smiling with all of my gusto. I wish that these words did not summarize some of my experiences in other people’s homes. But the smell of people’s homes can assault. And I just have to note that these people were entirely gracious and in some cases were trying their best. Which moves me to teach more on homemaking since so many women just did not receive adequate training in this…

    New to Homemaking? The Daily Routine

    April 13, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Ladies, Commonly, new homemakers do not know what to do daily. Some may do too much exhausting themselves and their family trying to mimic the pace of the rat race thinking this is what makes them good at homemaking. Others may feel bored because they truly do not know how to fill their time, and others may actually be lazy but not even realize they are not doing enough. Aside from obvious things like dishes after a meal, being home can feel like one empty desert of time. Some people overfill this time and some people underfill this time. Don’t feel bad if you’re a new homemaker but you are…

    How to Dress Now That You Live in the Country

    April 11, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Ladies, Just because you live rurally does not mean your style has to suffer but it will definitely change. Take it from a woman who “dresses up” daily but I do it in a way that works for country living. These are the items you will find yourself decluttering that simply put, won’t work with your new country life. But there are country alternatives for every item! 1) Declutter: Wide Legged Pants I grew up in the generation before skinny jeans existed so the bottoms of my bootcut jeans were constantly wet and muddy. Slim fit pants were such an incredible upgrade to feeling comfortable and looking more put together.…

    5 Things Homemakers Should Do

    April 8, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Our culture does not often admit others “should” do something. We like a loosey goosey take on everything. We do not want to draw hard lines but it’s sometimes at the cost of not being helpful. Go into any job and there is a job description to fulfill. The same is for homemaking. While you can homemake in a variety of ways, such as tailoring your work to the household’s preferences, you still need to meet certain needs of a household. This is not negotiable. If I were to tell a woman she can be a homemaker but not fulfill the duties of a homemaker, she would not be learning…

    How to Embrace Your Femininity

    I saw an old photo of myself today and it was a stark contrast to these photos here. I was wearing head to toe black, a black t shirt, black jeans and black slides. Everything looked stuck to my body with no shape or flow. The lack of levity and cheeriness looked so dreary. For all intents and purposes I was wearing what a man could have been wearing. There was nothing happy or beautiful about it. Haha! This is it. It makes me laugh every time I see it. It looks so sad! But here I was going with typical fashion advice (except the slides with socks, that was…
