Mother’s Day is only one month away! And while 30 days might seem like an eternity, don’t kid yourself. You know how quickly time flies. So do yourself a favor and start shopping now, and then when May 11th rolls around you can avoid the panic attack and existential crisis that ensues because you forgot to buy mom a gift! Make it a gift that counts without spending an arm and a leg with a little help from the Frugal & Thriving team. See our Mother’s Day gift guide below.
1. Is it even if a gift guide if it doesn’t include a blanket? This throw blanket is cozy and warm, just like a hug from mom.
2. Smooth skin is in! This body care set of bestsellers from Osea will have her feeling hydrated and refreshed.
3. The only recipe you need! This cute cutting board breaks down all the ingredients of a mother’s love.
4. Because cheetah print + on-the-go tumbler = the perfect gift. Is it water or is it wine?? We’ll never know.
5. And for the days of outdoor day drinking, these pretty mesh wine glass covers will keep the pests away. Well, the airborne ones at least. For the others you’ll just need another bottle of wine.
6. This super sweet personalized book will show mom just how much she means. It’s a sentimental way to let her know how grateful you are for her.
7. “Best Mama.” Pretty much sums it up. These comfy slippers will be her go-to around-the-house footwear!
8. Tea time! These adorable handwoven tea bags with decorative tags are the perfect way to bring a little glamour to her afternoon cup of tea.
9. There’s nothing quite like a handwritten letter, and this shareable letter book is one that can be passed down through the generations. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.
10. What’s that smell?! Oh, that’s just mom wafting by and smelling like the absolute goddess she is. This hair and body mist is a cult favorite for a reason.
11. The tote that says it all. Great for groceries, work essentials, travel, and more, this fun tote can be stuffed with mom’s favorite goodies for an added bonus.
12. From morning to night, this coffee and wine set has got mom covered. Whether she needs caffeine or alcohol, she’s got it.
13. Darling daisy pjs for the most darling mother in the world. This soft-knit set is totally acceptable to rock all day. Loungewear for the win, right??

We’re back with another room redo from Kristy! This time she upgraded her out-of-date dining room with a fresh coat of paint and some new furniture and accessories – and it changed the whole vibe. From dark and drab to bright and beautiful, her dining room transformation is one for the books! Take a look at the redo below.
This is the dining room before – not bad, but it definitely needed a little love! A fresh coat of paint and some new, carefully curated furniture and accessories would make this a brand-new space. I couldn’t wait to get rid of the beat-up table and the decades-old curtains.
Step one: pick the paint color! This gorgeous green is “Eden” from Hearth and Hand with Magnolia.
Here you can see the room mid-transformation. The new green paint color is sleek and contemporary, and blends seamlessly with the other upgrades I’ve made in my home!
A new dining table set and light fixture took the old, dark feel of the room and turned it into a fresh, modern farmhouse vibe! The light wood table and neutral chairs are classy and sophisticated, and the open-frame pendant light is eye-catching without being overwhelming.
Another small change that made a huge difference was replacing the old valances with these gorgeous sheer curtains and new curtain rods! They make the room look soft and bright, allowing plenty of natural light in while still feeling cozy and warm. See how I made that beautiful floral arrangement here.
And the completed look!! This new rug helps to open up the space and add a little dimension. It also helps the room feel finished – it ties together all the pieces. You can grab the faux marble-topped side table here, and check out the dining table decor here.
Thanks for reading! Let us know what you think of Kristy’s dining room redo in the comments below xo.

Fall is our favorite season for many reasons, but the cozy home decor is one of the main ones! Putting away the bright, airy summer decor and replacing it with warm, comforting autumn decor is the signal that the cool weather is right around the corner, and we are ready for it! Kristy recently redecorated her home for fall…see some of our favorite pieces below.

The majority of this decor is from Decocrated, our favorite seasonal home decor subscription box! The pumpkin, wooden lantern, wooden sign, and the eucalyptus garland are all from Decorated. The gorgeous farmhouse clock makes for a lovely year-round focal point, and this refreshing willow candle looks as good as it smells!

Bring summer to your shelves by decorating them with black and yellow gnomes, a woven beehive, a wooden stand topped with an artificial potted plant, and a chic glass bowl filled with citrus-inspired potpourri.

This “summer tree” is filled with black and gold ball ornaments, buzzing little bees, and bee-hatted gnomes. Topped with a burlap and bright yellow bow, this tree evokes all things sunshine and summer.
