WELCOME
This blog has been around in one form or another since 2010. It’s an amalgamation of who I was, who I am, and who I’m hoping to be. Sometimes it’s about beauty products. Other times (most of the time) it’s about planning. Occasionally there’s business stuff and even rarer board game content.
So thanks for stopping by, reading somthing long-form in a world of fast information, and hanging out with me on my slice of the internet.
Sincerely,
Kayla

Space Themed Guest Bedroom Tour
I've been meaning to do a tour of our guest bedroom for ages now. Right around the time I finished it my dad came and stayed with us for a few months as my parents moved, making it difficult to get a camera in there to film and photograph the space. My parents are...
Planner Peace Doesn’t Exist
Planner Peace is quite the popular buzz term in the planner community. People shout it around like they've found the answer to life's mysteries. I've even been known to speculate that I've found planner peace as well. But you know what? It doesn't exist. I think it's...
Daily Makeup for a Self-Employed Stay-at-Homer
Now it's arguable to even bother wearing makeup at all as a self-employed work from home sticker maker. Yet I find that if I do pull myself a bit more together in the morning, I have a more productive day overall. I definitely don't go crazy, and this makeup routine...
