Easter Basket Ideas for Teen Girls

Spring is here, although living in California these days feels like anything but spring! I am ready for the rain to stop and the sun to come out. Easter baskets are always fun to plan as they’re just small items that are fun and playful. And it’s time to explore items I think they’ll enjoy as opposed to the “wishlist only” giving of other holidays. Here are some items that will be in my kid’s baskets this year. I think I’ve mentioned this before, but we bought a couple of bolga baskets for the kids years ago and have used them ever since for Easter and Halloween.

Vegan Bulletproof Coffee Recipe and Latest YouTube Video

This post is in partnership with Nespresso and contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you make a purchase after clicking on a link

I’m back with another fun Nespresso recipe – I discovered the best vegan bulletproof coffee recipe using homemade hemp milk and coconut oil! It’s a serious addiction you guys. It’s really so, so good and very filling. Did you know that bulletproof coffee was supposed to replace breakfast? That’s what I’ve heard, and let me tell you, this stuff satisfies. It’s become a necessary part of my daily morning routine. And it’s super easy to make thanks to my Nespresso VertuoPlus and Aeroccino. I mean it. Super. Easy.

With all of the rain here in California lately, we are having some major greens going on. You might have heard of the super bloom? Yes, well every plant in our yard is thriving. Actually, even my indoor plants are pretty happy too. It’s just a great year to develop a green thumb! I’ve been taking full advantage. Over the winter I’ve amassed quite a number of indoor plants and now I’ve set my sights on the outdoors. I partnered with World Market today, to bring you some of their great plant and potting bench supplies. Here are some of my favorites right now.

Starting a new monthly series! I’ll be picking a few favorites and sharing them with you. There won’t always be a theme, I think, but I thought it would be fun to share a couple of unique and natural ways I like to clean house over here. I’ve done a few cleaning posts before, but here are some products I’ve been using (or would like to try!) for spring cleaning this month.

1 | HIMALAYAN SALT LAMP
Like I mentioned in my Mother’s Day gift guide, I’ve bought salt lamps for almost every room in the house! So Well only sells fair trade Himalayan salt harvested ethically. A+
2 | ORGANIC BED LINEN SUBSCRIPTION
Coyuchi just announced their organic bed and bath linen subscriptions. Pretty great idea!
3 | THE LAUNDRESS LAUNDRY ASSORTMENT℅
I’m loving that The Laundress has separate detergents for my lights and darks! Anything to keep my blacks looking black! They work well and sit pretty 😉
4 | PHUR CLEANING WATER℅
pHur water’s pH balance has been changed to create a cleaner and a disinfectant. The only contents? Water and salt. Yep. That’s IT. I’m so on board!
5 | AWAIR℅
This gorgeous little piece of tech analyzes the air quality of your home and gives you an air quality score. It can also integrate with other smart tech in your home to improve the air conditions. For example, it can connect to your Nest and either turn on the heater or air condition if temperature levels get too extreme. So cool right? Plus it’s so chic looking! You can also use it like a clock.
6 | CHIKUNO CUBE
I might have mentioned this little guy before, but I really do love it. It’s a charcoal natural air purifier! We have one in our refrigerator and in the kids room.
I was not paid to write this post but it does contain affiliates and gifted items noted with a “℅”. Thank you for supporting Copy Cat Chic!
