Pin Worthy: 6 Inspiration Boards to Recreate

A Peek at a Few Bulletin Boards Spotted in Inspiring Work Spaces
Filed Under > Ideas & Inspiration

There’s just something about curated inspiration boards (or mood boards if you will) that gets me.  Besides the obvious fact that a working bulletin board helps with organization in the workspace—with calendar reminders, business cards and phone numbers to call—a board also double as some of the best office art.  It’s personalized to only you, and it’s TOTALLY affordable! 

With an attention to detail, an appreciation for aesthetics and of course fun accents (like these gorgeous gold clips) to tie it all together, an inspiration board can be truly show-stopping.  Our office inspiration boards (pictured above and also seen in the full feature here) kick it up a notch with DIY fabric-covered boards, which have proven to be a beautiful focal point in the space.  And as you’ll see in these additional photos in the slideshow above, great inspiration boards give any workspace a more energized feel, with creativity bursting with each pin-worthy item.  There’s even beauty in the messy, half-created inspiration boards just as much as the perfectly edited and designed ones!  Cheers, Kat

9 Travel Instagram Accounts to Follow Today

These Accounts Dish Up a Good Dose of Wanderlust on the Daily
Filed Under > Travel

I’m back in the office after a great holiday weekend, but whew my mind is elsewhere.  I’ve always had a strong sense of wanderlust, so it should come to no surprise to you that I follow a ton of accounts on Instagram that dish up a good dose of worldly inspiration daily.  Now, some of these travel Instagram accounts are smaller than others, some are what I consider “big dogs”, some do this for a living and some simply have a knack for capturing beauty wherever they end up.  But I think you’ll agree that their effect is the same; they leave you with a let’s-pack-our-bags-right-now kind of feeling. 

So I invite you to escape your cubicle or desk today for a few minutes by clicking through the slideshow above.  While these are nine of my faves, I’m ALWAYS looking for more travel Instagram accounts to follow…so please tell me who you love too!  Cheers, Kat

Waiting on Martha + One Love Organics

our favorite clean, nontoxic beauty essentials
Filed Under > Beauty & Tutorials

blog-one-love-organics-and-waiting-on-marthablog-one-love-organics-body-scrub blog-one-love-organics-kitblog-one-love-organics-cleansing-oil

You know, it’s really been a long time coming.  Collaborating with one of our favorite nontoxic beauty brands, One Love Organics, was simply a no-brainer.  The entire WOM Team is a group of devout OLO fangirls if we’re being honest here.  It’s one of those brands that we keep coming back to; we believe in the products that much, and it’s a small business that we’re proud to support as we’ve gotten to know the team over the years.  Not to mention, every product is practically irresistible, with gentle, miracle-working ingredients and heavenly scents (and beautiful packaging to boot).  

If you can’t tell how much we’re drinking the Kool-Aid over here, this will surely hit it home.  Today I’m beyond thrilled to debut an exciting collaboration with OLO…I compiled all of my favorite products in two fantastic (and extremely giftable…hint, hint) sets: MKR’s Daily Essentials Kit and my Holiday Survival Kit. 

Inside MKR’s Daily Essentials Kit, you’ll receive…you guessed it: my must-haves for every day. That includes: Easy Does It foaming cleanser,  Skin Dew coconut water cream, Morning Glory caffeinated firming serum and Vitamin E eye balm

Inside my Holiday Survival Kit, I included two of my favorite products, hands-down (all year ’round, but especially to get me through the holidays!).  And those are: Vitamin B Enzyme Cleansing Oil + Makeup Remover and Skin Savior multi-tasking wonder balm

I break ’em down just why they’re on my list of must-haves, so be sure to check it out below. We’re also selling the full-size versions of all of our most used OLO products, in case you’re already hooked and want your fix on your favorites as well. Tell me friends, have you welcomed nontoxic skincare into your routine?  Truly, MKR

Skin Dew Coconut Water Cream

One Love Organics, $59

Shop Now >

An exciting and irresistible new product from One Love Organics, the Skin Dew offers feather-light moisture that absorbs quickly into the skin.  I like to apply it after my Morning Glory serum, underneath my makeup.  It smells, of course, divine. 

Skin Savior Multi-Tasking Wonder Balm

One Love Organics, $49

Shop Now >

Skin Savior really is a wonder balm.  It’s amazing at removing dirt and makeup, without leaving my skin dry.  Full of antioxidants, the balm smells amazing and can be used just about everywhere.  No seriously, right now with the cold weather, I’m applying it directly to my nose, and I even use it on my heels!  You don’t need a lot when applying, so a little goes a long way. 

Vitamin B Enzyme Cleansing Oil + Makeup Remover

One Love Organics, $42

Shop Now >

Perhaps my favorite product of the bunch: Vitamin B Enzyme Cleansing Oil + Makeup Remover. This bestseller and award-winner restores skin with its natural moisture barrier and pH balance. I love that the oil is designed with dry, dehydrated skin in mind, but it’s concentrated enough for all skin types.  And again, it smells wonderful.

The oil can be used alone or as the perfect first step in any double cleansing routine.  I like to keep mine next to my bed for the time I may indulge at a holiday party and still need a fresh face (but am too lazy to wash it…ha!). 

Vitamin E Eye Balm

One Love Organics, $49

Shop Now >

I think everyone was lectured on the importance of a good eye cream.  Friends, this is it.  The Vitamin E Eye Balm is made of a lovely blend of rich, hydrating ingredients like Vitamin E, organic shea butter and pomegranate and sea kelp. 

My favorite part about this eye balm?  I only need to buy one per year; it lasts forever!  When applying, I lightly pat around my eye with my ring finger – every night and sometimes during the day if I’m really feeling the elements. 

 

Easy Does It Foaming Cleanser

One Love Organics, $29

Shop Now >

A lot of other cleansers dry my skin (and clear out my skin’s natural defenses apparently, too).  This gentle foaming cleanser does just the opposite; it’s a soothing, non-drying foam that makes my skin feel soft and clean.  

It’s multi-tasking too…works on face, body and even hair. And like all One Love Organics products, the fragrance is light, subtle and lovely. 

Waiting On Martha + One Love Organics Essentials Kit

One Love Organics, $179

Shop Now >

I’m beyond excited to partner with our favorite organic beauty brant to create my Everyday Essentials Kit.  This is honestly what I use every sing day, morning and night, these products are my essentials.  And how cute is the little LOVE makeup bag it comes in!!

Set Includes: Mini gentle foaming cleanser, morning glory caffeinated serum, skin dew water coconut cream, vitamin e eye balm, and a LOVE bag.

Brand New Day Microderma Scrub + Masque

One Love Organics, $39

Shop Now >

Another multi-tasker from One Love Organics, this superfine exfoliator is activated by water.  When applied, it gently sloughs off dead skin, clarifying and smoothing while it’s at it.  I’ve found that Brand New Day gives me a brighter complexion when I use it regularly as both a masque and a scrub. 

Its ingredients include organic sweet pea flour, pineapple enzymes and mineral rich kaolin clay.

Morning Glory Caffeinated Firming Serum

One Love Organics, $59

Shop Now >

I apply this amazing caffeinated firming serum after I cleanse my face with the Easy Does It foaming cleanser and before using the Skin Dew.  It’s designed to tighten and tone the skin, giving it a little boost of energy while it’s at it.  

Waiting On Martha + One Love Organic Holiday Survival Kit

One Love Organics, $92

Shop Now >

The holidays are here and between the parties and the late nights our skin needs all the help it can get.  Enter our holiday survival kit.  The skin survivor is perfect for tired feet, a running nose, and all of that itchy winter skin.  The Vitamin B cleanser; well let’s just say I leave it on my nightstand in case I’m a bit too tired to make my way to the bathroom to properly wash my face.  It’s truly a life saver.  Obsessed!!  

Vitamin C Body Scrub

One Love Organics, $49

Shop Now >

A rinse-able scrub like none other, Vitamin C body polish features an ultra-concentrated combination of vitamin C ester, aloe, shea, and raw organic sugar crystals to deeply exfoliate and hydrate for supremely soft, luminous skin.  And bonus: it smells Ah.Mah.Zing!!
