4 Helpful Tips for Bringing Out Your Inner Creative

{ } -

Creativity, Bring out your inner creative, creative inspiration

Hey bloggers, let’s face it. We’ve all been there. Whether it’s writer’s block or lack of inspiration sometimes you need a little help bringing out your inner creative.  If this sounds familiar, here are 4 helpful tips.

4 Helpful Tips For Bringing Out Your Inner Creative 

1. Brainstorm

You can do it by yourself or you can do it with some creative friends. Make it a habit!

  • Give yourself plenty of time to brainstorm and set time aside to do it! Grab your planner and schedule some time to sit and come up with ideas. 
  • Give yourself permission to experiment. There’s no such thing as a bad idea. Remember, someone, somewhere pitched Sharknado.
  • Write every idea you have down. The more ideas you have, the more options you have.

2. Get Outside

Goethe once said, if nature is your teacher, your soul will awaken. I believe that. 

  • Take a brain break. Step outside and get some fresh air – even if it’s just right outside your door, standing on the porch while the dogs howl.
  • Go for a leisurely walk. There’s something about nature that just soothes the soul and resets creativity.
If nature is your teacher, your soul will awaken. – Goethe

3. Have a Few Creative Outlets

Seems like common sense stuff right? But how are you feeding your creativity? What creative outlets do you currently have? 

  • Read a good book.
  • Watch a great movie.
  • Take a class (think photography, painting, drawing, music, etc).

4. Live Life

You’re probably going to find it easier to be creative if you’re going out and living life to the fullest. Or, fuller than you are right now. Say yes, to new experiences.

  • Travel whenever possible. Even if that means exploring the next town over.
  • Go to a cultural event. This opens you up to richer, life experiences.
  • Surround yourself with a diverse group of friends. Having friends from different cultures and friends who speak different languages really broadens your horizons and changes the way you see the world.

I hope you’ve found some value in the tips I’ve shared. These are some of what’s worked for me over the years and I’m sure if you try a few you’ll find yourself back in the swing of things in no time! 

What are some of your favorite ways to get your creative juices flowing again? What would you add to this blog post? I can’t wait to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

graduation announcements you and your graduate will love

This is a sponsored post through Basic Invite

School is out and it’s officially graduation season and regardless of what’s going on in the world, you’ve got to celebrate your grad in style! I’m sharing some beautiful graduation announcements both you and your graduate will love! 

If you know me, you know I am all about a great party and celebrating in style.  In fact, we just recently celebrated my son’s 16th birthday with the cutest yard signs and a caravan of cars playing the Happy Birthday song as they drove around our cul-de-sac to share in our celebration in true social distancing style. We really don’t let anything stop us from celebrating the milestones in our lives. So, if celebrating your son or daughter’s recent accomplishments like graduating from high school or college is high on your priority list, I think these Basic Invite graduation announcements will be right up your alley. 

Some of My Favorite Graduation Announcements

I’ll share a few of my favorites below, but you can customize their products to get exactly what you want. Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows you almost unlimited color options with instant previews online. Once you select a design, you can change the color of each element on the card. With over 180 colors to choose from, your product is sure to be exactly the way you want it. Plus, there’s no guesswork involved. You can order a printed sample of your actual graduation invitations or announcements before you place your final order. Foolproof! You’ll be able to see the paper quality and how it will print, and make sure the card is perfect!

Graduation Announcement with Sprinkles

Highschool Graduation Announcement

Masculine Graduation Announcement in Navy and White

Graduation Announcement for Twins

Graduation Announcement with Initial

Those are some of my favorites, but there are hundreds to choose from, so you’re sure to find something that would be perfect for you and your grad. I just love all the options.

Double Bonus – Envelopes and Address Capturing Service, Too!

And if beautifully printed announcements and invitations weren’t enough, Basic Invite has over 40 different envelope colors to choose from. With so many options, you can make your envelope match your announcement or invitation. Bonus: All of the envelopes are peel and seal so they can be closed quickly and securely.  

Another bonus, their address capturing service. If you’re a busy parent like me (and what parent isn’t?) Basic Invite offers an address capturing service that allows you to easily share a link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other social network to request your friends and family’s addresses. Not to worry though,  addresses are stored in your account and can be selected during the design process. Basic Invite offers recipient address printing at no cost on all card orders. That’s sure to make your life easier, and we all want that! 

Design Your Graduation Announcements and Get 15% Off

If you’d like to give Basic Invite a try for their graduation invitations, graduation announcements, or thank you cards, or the multitude of other printed products they have, they’re offering 15% off right now with coupon code: 15FF51

If you’d like to check out Basic Invite on social media, to see what they’re sharing you can find them on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter.
 
P.S. I’m a rose gold fanatic, so I thought I’d let you know that they also have foil cards available in rose gold. But if you prefer something more traditional, they have good old gold and silver foil cards as well.

3 Tips for Keeping the Social In Social Media

{ } -

The best part of social media is being social. So don’t limit yourself to being social only on the web; nurture your connections by taking them offline. Today, I’m giving you 3 tips for keeping the social in social media. 

1. Help Connect

It’s not just about your product, brand, or organization now that the conversations have kicked off and you’ve made all these amazing connections. The people you’ve been communicating, interacting, and engaging with really need to connect with each other, too. Events are really important for community building. Create meetups, tweetups and other offline events to get your community together and interacting – not just with your brand, but with each other. Facilitate introductions to help others get connected, and build their networks both online and off.

2. It’s All About Relationships

Think of social networking the same way you think of networking offline. It’s all about relationships. People want to do business with people they know, and support the people they like. Make time on your social calendar for attending industry events. That will provide an opportunity to meet your followers one-on-one, reconnect with clients, meet new prospects, and deepen your relationships within your community. The personal connections you make at these events will also help drive referrals to your social media channels and corporate website.

Platforms like Eventbrite (see: others like Eventbrite) can help you find and share events to attend. Don’t stop there though. Let your community know where and when they can find you, by sharing this information on your website and in your blog.

3. Close the Circle

Once you get back to the office, be sure to close the circle with all those great people you’ve met. Let them know it was great to meet them and thank them for chatting with you. Also, take a moment to think about projects you can work on collaboratively. When you genuinely take an interest in what others in your online community have going on, they’ll be more inclined to check in and see what you’ve got going on as well. Real connections help you to feel more invested in people’s projects.

Cement these relationships by meeting routinely. If you’re bound by geographic restrictions, pick up the phone (or use FaceTime, Zoom or Skype) and connect. Face-to-face connections are wonderful, but when that isn’t practical, hearing someone’s voice is the next best thing.

Do you connect offline with the people you met online? What’s one simple step you would add to help keep the social in social media? Let me know in the comments below.

Date Night at Nu Asian Bistro in Jacksonville, NC

{ } -

We all have these restaurants we never notice until we’re on our way to somewhere else, right? Well, Nu Asian Bistro in Jacksonville, North Carolina, has been that place for me for quite a while now. From what I can tell, they’ve been open for almost 2 years now, but for some reason, they never come to mind when the hubby and I are fighting discussing where to go for dinner.

The stars finally aligned for me to try out Nu Asian Bistro when a good friend of mine invited us to a sushi dinner date. Turns out she had been there many times before, and it’s one of her go-to places! It was fate. Fate for a sushi date. Fate for a sushi date with some of my mates. Feel free to stop me anytime here.

Great Food and Deals

Now on to the good stuff –  We happened to go on a Thursday night which also happens to be one of their BOGO sushi nights! Finally, I could try different kinds of sushi without it costing me an arm and a leg. I’m usually a Shrimp Tempura Roll kinda gal (which, of course, I got because it’s my favorite), but I also got their Volcano Roll, which I was very excited to try. Both were AMAZING, and I almost couldn’t finish them both (I said almost).

My Volcano Roll even looked like a volcano which I loved. I admired it for a total of 5 seconds before I destroyed it. Our friends got an undeniably large platter of sushi rolls that put my little plate to shame, and they loved their choices as well. If you don’t like sushi, they also offer many other dishes, including a special Thai menu that is out of this world. I’ll definitely be sampling that one soon. The hubs isn’t a fan of sushi, but he was super pleased with his Teriyaki Beef. I almost regretted not getting it, but we’re married so of course, I stole a bite or two or three.

As if the night wasn’t perfect enough with our BOGO sushi rolls, the dinner gods continued to shine down on us with $5 martinis… need I say more? There were four of us in our group, so we asked the waitress to surprise us with four different martinis. We spent the evening sampling almost their entire menu of martinis – Death by Chocolate, Sour Apple, Washington Apple – you name it, we probably tried it.

My Favorite Picks at Nu Asian Bistro

My personal favorite was the Lemon Drop Martini complete with sugar on the rim. The Sour Apple was a close second. This chocolate lover was sure the Death by Chocolate martini would rock my world, but I suppose I’m just not a big fan of chocolate with my alcohol. Martinis and sushi; this is my heaven, I’m sure of it! The service was great as was the atmosphere of this cute little restaurant. It’s complete with some nice, low lighting to really set the mood before you chow down on some delicious food.

Perfect Date Night at Nu Asian Bistro in Jacksonville, NC

We had a great time for our first trip to Nu Asian Bistro! Yummy food, great friends, good atmosphere – it was the perfect date night. I may or may not have had one too many martinis… But hey, who I am kidding, it was totally worth it. Word on the street is they have BOGO sushi rolls Monday through Thursday, and different drink specials pretty often! We’ll definitely be returning to NU Asian Bistro for my sushi fix, but also to try some of my other Asian favorites like Mongolian Beef or a Thai Stir Fry. YUM.

If you’re new to the area or a local and haven’t tried this spot yet, Nu Asian Bistro should be on your list of places to have lunch or dinner. You can find them the next time you visit Jacksonville, NC at:

What the Heck Are Hashtags and How Do I Use Them?

Hastags, What are hashtags, How do I use hashtags

If you’re new to social media, you’re probably wondering what the heck hashtags are and do I use them effectively. You’re in luck! In this blog post, I’m going to cover those questions and so much more!

What The Heck Are Hashtags?

hashtag

Hashtags assign topics to your posts, status updates, and articles. Using the pound sign # {or hash} on a social network {think Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Google+ and even Facebook}, turns any word or group of words that directly follow it, into a searchable link, allowing you to organize content and track discussion topics based on those keywords. That means, if you wanted to post about your visit to NYC like I did above, you would include #NYC in your status update to join the conversation. Click on any hashtag to see all the posts that mention that topic/subject in real-time.

How to Format Your Hashtags

The first thing you should know is that you don’t want to use spaces – even if your hashtag contains multiple words. But you do want to differentiate those words by using upper and lower case. For example, Pen Island would look better, and make much more sense, as #PenIsland than as #penisland, don’t you agree?  Uppercase letters won’t alter your search results so people searching for #abc will get the same results as people searching for #ABC.

Numbers are supported, so #EasyAs123 works. Sadly, punctuation marks are not supported. So commas, periods, exclamation points, question marks, and apostrophes are out. While you’re at it, skip asterisks, ampersands and any other special characters.

There Are No Presets

There isn’t a master list of hashtags, but you can search your social networks {and search engines} to see if there’s a hashtag already in use for a particular subject or topic. You can even check services like HashAtIt, Hashtagify, and Hashtags.org. Remember, every time you add a hashtag in front of a word or phrase, you’re creating a hashtag. Try it out!

How You Can Use Hashtags

Hashtags are supported on Twitter {where they started}, Instagram, Pinterest, and even Facebook, now. There are so many different ways you can use hashtags, the possibilities are almost endless. However, I wanted to give you a few ways you can use them, along with a few tips.

  • Don’t forget, hashtags turn words into searchable links
  • Always start with a # and leave out spaces
  • Use upper and lowercase to differentiate words
  • Use them during conferences and events
  • Use them in conversations around specific topics
  • Use them for Twitter Chats
  • Use them during television shows (#CNN, #GreysAnatomy, #JurassicWorld)
  • Hashtags can be used anywhere within your post or update
  • Use them to find like-minded individuals
  • Use them to find people discussing the topics you’re interested in
  • Use them to create a following for your brand/blog/business
  • Use them to complement photos you share on Instagram (This helps you discover new accounts and pick up followers)
  • Use them to show off your personality, brand voice or tone
  • Use them for fun!

Again, these are just a few ways you can use hashtags while you’re using social media. What would you add to this article to help people trying to understand hashtags? How are you using hashtags? Let me know in the comments below!

Experience a Wild Horse and Dolphin Scenic Tour

Wild Horse and Dolphin Scenic Tour

One of the best parts of coastal living and life along the Crystal Coast is getting to experience a wild horse and dolphin scenic tour anytime we want.  My kids and I are big nature lovers, so any chance to see wildlife in a natural setting is just magical.

Why See Less, When You Can See It All!

My friend, Captain George, owns and operates Beaufort’s largest, most comfortable cruise vessel, the Crystal Coast Lady. He offers regularly scheduled opportunities for locals and visitors to experience their Wild Pony and Dolphin Scenic Tour. If you’ve never sailed with Captain George or you’ve never seen the wild horses and dolphins, add this to your list of things to do while you’re in Beaufort.  
 
If you’ve never been aboard, the Crystal Coast Lady has a fully enclosed top deck (so you can enjoy your cruise without worrying about the weather), plenty of outside seating, a fully stocked galley on each deck, bathrooms on each level and a climate controlled cab on the main salon. I’ve had some tasty treats when I’ve been on board.

Experience a Wild Horse and Dolphin Scenic Tour

The wild horse and dolphin scenic tour is a 15 mile, fully narrated tour. On it you’ll cruise by Carrot Island and the Rachel Carson Reserve, you’ll see the NC State Port, Blackbeard’s House, Beaufort’s historical homes, high-rise and drawbridges, Duke Marine Lab, Fort Macon, USCG Station, Radio Island, the Morehead City Waterfront, as well as big beautiful yachts from all over the world with a good chance of seeing the Wild Banker Ponies and Atlantic Bottle-Nose Dolphins. Pony and dolphin sightings are typical but obviously not guaranteed, but either way, you’ll have such a good time.

I’d highly recommend you make reservations rather than trying to pay at the pier. This cruise fills up. Also, you can book just a dolphin scenic tour or just a wild horse tour but why not have it all?

As a truly modern girl, I’ve teamed up with an online stationery design company, Basic Invite, to give you a peek inside the world of online wedding invitation design just perfect for the modern bride.

All Matching Everything

Wedding invitations, basic invite wedding invitations. simple but elegant wedding invitations

Even some of the most modern couples opt for a more traditional wedding invitation, but to take this old-school style and spin it into the most beautiful invitation – choose a single design and match, match, match!

Basic Invite has over 900 wedding invitation designs from clear to foil and everything in between. Rather than sending out a save the date, followed by an invitation, and some enclosure cards that sort of go together, order a full matching wedding suite with a matching rsvp, save the date, and enclosures for a clean, cohesive look.

Wedding Websites

Wedding websites are a great way to keep things modern and organized when it comes to wedding plans and your invitations specifically. There is no substitute for a hand-delivered invitation straight off the press, but for real-time updates and extra special details, wedding rsvp websites are a great tool. Not to mention, 100% FREE! We call that an added bonus.

Choose a design that matches your wedding invitation or compliments your style. Upload a gallery of images, write a little love story, and invite your guests to upload their contact information instantly through your wedding website. You can even provide day-of details like maps, directions, and accommodation info to keep your guests in the loop right up to the moment you say “I do.”

Celebrate National Donut Day with Dunkin Donuts!

This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Dunkin’ Donuts

National Donut Day is right around the corner!

My kids love Dunkin’ Donuts, and if I’m being honest, I always have. When we lived in South Florida we had a Dunkin’ right down the street from us. We could walk there if we wanted to and often, as a teenager, my friends and I did.

Raising my kids in the same home I grew up in, they grew to love how close the local Dunkin’ was, and how it was occasionally a treat on the weekends for breakfast.

Much to our delight, our current home in North Carolina is also located quite close to a Dunkin’ Donuts store as well. We could easily ride our bikes there – and that’s something we should probably consider doing if I take into account how often the kids ask for donuts on the weekends! 

National Donut Day
