I'll just be honest with you. After all, I'd like to think, because you are reading this article, that we're friends. Or at least the decor-obsessed equivalent. Anyways, I have a bit of a problem. Any time I enter a Hobby Lobby, Target, or any Home Goods store for that matter, I want to buy everything in sight. Even though I definitely don't have room for any of it. I would like to believe that plenty of people suffer from this predicament. But I have a select group of decorative signs that I still fall in love with when I admire them now, no matter how old they are. Here are my top 10 signs I've ever purchased:

1. Hobby Lobby is the bomb dot com when it comes to quotable signs!

2. Bookish signs are my jam.


2nd and Charles is now my FAVORITE place to buy bookish signs after finding this gem one day while book shopping.

3. The sign whose seller is unidentifiable.

Even though I honestly can't remember where I found this sign (this shows you I have a serious buying problem), I still adore it. I'm studying English at university right now, so it fits perfectly in my room at school.

4. Altar'd State is def my go-to for biblical decor.

Even though most shoppers know Altar'd State for its pricey apparel and other merchandise, it's my favorite store of all time. I have so many articles of clothing that I've purchased over the years from there, a new Bible that I adore, and a total of four decorative signs that always find their place in any room, at school or at home.

5. Coffee-themed signs are my spirit animal.

Someone get me a large coffee, please!

6. Newfound loves while in the Sunshine State.

I found Sugarboo & Co. while on vacation in Florida last month. I'd never heard of it, but it's apparently been a thing since 2005. Their motto is, "Dealer in Whimsy," which I absolutely love. They carry a TON of household items that are given an extra sprinkle of decorative love as well as writing tools such as notebooks, pens, paperweights, and more!

If you want to give them a search, their web URL is: https://www.sugarbooandco.com

7. DIY is a great thing if you're looking for something cheaper.

I did this sign a few years back and I still adore the quote. All I did was purchase a white canvas, black paint, and foam scrapbooking letters. Then I placed the scrapbooking letters where I wanted them on the canvas, painted over the entire thing, and after it dried I removed the letters. I found the idea on Pinterest and it worked like a charm!

8. Alphabet photography.

Okay, I don't know what this is officially called, but I really like the concept. And I love that you can create whatever you want with pictures you love. I created this sign in South Carolina when I was on vacation one year. It took the main precedence in my freshman dorm room, hanging over my bed alongside a photo collage board.

9. Signs that aren't even mine.

This isn't technically my sign, but I did buy it so whatever. I bought it as a Christmas present for my mom because it reminds me of her dad (and my papa), who passed away in 2016.

10. Those I haven't technically purchased...

But I will someday!

And those are 10 signs my inner Joanna Gaines absolutely loves!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
