Hi there! New logo alert! Just realized I never really introduced myself on here. My name is Claire Cheatham. I live in Franklin, Tn with my boyfriend and our two cats, Kitty and Gia. I love funky colors and patterns and anything vintage. I also love creating. Whether it’s crocheting, or sewing, or decorating… i love it all. I started my journey selling vintage clothing on depop. I went by the name Wild Cherries Vintage. I slowly started to realize I wanted to be doing something more than just reselling clothing. I later went on to create a small jewelry brand by the same name and sold a few things here and there but again, it didnt feel right. Earlier this year, I was taught to sew by a seamstress of over 30 years. Her name is @myswallowsnest. With inspiration and knowledge from her, gunne sax, laura ashley, little house on the prairie, and many more… the brand Ruffled Love came to life. All of my pieces are made out of medium weight 100% cotton. Some are vintage some aren’t. I chose this fabric because of it’s sturdiness and it’s ability to be machine washed—which will guarantee your piece many years of wear. Ruffled Love is currently made up only of me. I do the sewing, I do sourcing, and I do the modeling. We are a slow fashion brand with items that are made with love and care. I currently only sell at pop up markets, but I’m actively looking for a vintage shop in the Nashville area that would like to hold some of my stock. If you know of anyone or are interested in working with me just shoot me a DM. #thanksfortheread #ruffledlove #vintagedresses #handmadevintagedresses #prairiedresses #nashvillebusiness #nashvillevintage
Currently loving this read!!!😍 This is the second book in The Felserpeng Chronicles y'all and I am so pleased to say I received a copy from @booksparks !! Thank you to them so I could read more of the chronicles! So this story takes off from where Kyra and Sebastian find out that they are coming to grips with their past memories from the past. Kyra is still a very strong female character in this one and she and Sebastian suit each other well. The author has done it again in this book, leaving me waiting along with the readers for the next part of the story! There is a definite insinuation of a book 3 coming!! 🎉😁 The writing is still very well done and I love this author and her style. It is a great YA book and I recommend to any young adults or adults out there who love fantasy! As always there are no spoilers in my reviews, read the book! Country Mama rating: 4.5 our of 5 hearts♥️♥️♥️♥️ @booksparks #gifted #thanksfortheread #bookstoread #bookrecommendations #booksaremylife #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #bookreviews #readthis #books @katiekeridan

Adventure is calling. The mountains whisper my name in my sleep. I’ve been uprooted. Transplanted. The discomfort from the sheering move finally subsiding. Awakening to the reality of where an unfathomable force in my life has planted me. Hungry to test out this new root system. Hungry for the nutrients in this new land, new soil. New soul food. Soon. I see you. Oh so soon to set my feet on your ancient lands. Inspired air. Expired fears. I’ve arrived. Large sigh. #writtenbyme #inspired #thanksfortheread #newlands #newterritory #tangible #breathyourbiome #pnw #thegreatoutdoors #westcoast #explore #travel #rootsystem #vsco #mountainbabes

I am posting this because this is MY STRUGGLE.....💯 READ BELOW👇🏾 People often say to me "Please don't say I'll call you right back, because we both know ...YOU' WONT" Although it's still an excuse the phrase I quickly spew out is.... "Charge it to my mind and not my heart" ..That phrase is so accurate because the desire to continue the connection... be it with family, friends or interest is definitely a priority in my heart. The issue I'm having.... and in no way is this a brag for myself, but in all aspects bragging on My GOD)....... 📍IM GIFTED IN A LOT OF THINGS ....AND I JUST REALIZED IT!🤦🏾 😌However finding the balance between the gifts that GOD gave me and knowing HOW and WHEN to use them. Has been more than a struggle, and sometimes it causes a STANDSTILL. THIS MEME WAS/IS my BREAKTHROUGH I realize I try to give so much of ME to everyone that I end up spreading myself thin and not giving enough to the person that really matters in this story ...... MYSELF I WANT TO BETTER TO THE PEOPLE I TRULY CARE ABOUT AND I WANT THEM TO FEEL THAT.. ...and in order to this I'm changing the Narrative IN AND ON MY LIFE . I'm going to give more of ME to ME... Concentrating on what Im doing at that moment and anything other than CJ will have to wait. ... #HereAndNow I HAVE TO FOCUS IN ORDER TO SHOW MY SON THAT HE HAS THE ABILTY TO DO BETTER THAN ME. SO IM RAISING THE BAR AND IF YOU HAVE EVER WORKED OUT YOU KNOW RAISING THE BAR REQUIRES TWO HANDS ...SO IN ORDER TO DO THAT .... **I HAVE TO PUT SOME THINGS DOWN... ITS NOT PERSONAL ..... ITS BUSINESS ...MINE ..AND I NEED TO HANDLE IT IN ORDER TO BE A BETTER EXAMPLE OF WHAT GOD HAS AND CAN DO.... I HOPE YALL STILL LOVE ME EVEN IF YOU DONT HEAR FROM ME AS MUCH WHILE I WORK ON BEING THE MAN GOD DESIRES ME TO BE. AS I AM ALREADY *WHERE HE DESIRES ME TO BE. I CLAIM LONGEVITY OVER MY LIFE SO I GOTTA MAKE SURE ITS WORTH THE STAY....😉 IM A GREAT MAN... I DESIRE TO BE A BETTER ONE ...DAILY 💯💯💯 #ACCOUNTABILITY #MYBOOTHISMYPULPIT #LiveLaughLove #THANKSFORTHEREAD If You get to this part of the Msg...Drop me A "🐄 " #IYKYK
I'll be honest, I've never been one for the self help motivational type books... I'm more of a nonfiction learning the facts or dystopian fiction kind of reader but a friend of mine @jenn.hynes gifted me #GirlStopApologizing by @msrachelhollis as an audio book and it has been such a treat to listen to. I just finished t today and I'm happy to say that now I am really excited to dive into more personal development books. I'm looking forward to seeing where this mindset focused on the future leads. Up Next: Girl Wash Your Face (Yes I know it's out of order but hey it is what it is) . . .

Beautiful, brilliant 20s coming to a close. 20s is a true coming of age era, not entirely sure of who you are, where you’re going, a quest to find what it means to authentically be you. The physical growing pains well behind you. Entering into the uncomfortable, and intensely emotional variety of growing pains as you continue this search for self. Exciting and yet so terrifying. It was an adventure, and I’m entirely satisfied with the woman it has produced thus far. I look forward to this next era of life, firmly having a grasp of my present, where I’m going and what I want to do with this time share I have on earth. There may be hiccups, pit stops and pauses along the way, and while no one can ever be fully prepared for these events, I can honestly say these years have taught me how to best adapt. The dreaded, “dirty” 30s? No thank you. I welcome it and gently kiss my 20 year old self goodbye while thanking her for the lessons I’ve learned. No, not dreaded at all. Aging and maturing is a beauty in itself, and I gladly will accept that responsibility to do it well. Cheers to a new decade of life 🥂 . . #thanksfortheread #anewdecade #happybelly #manyadventuresahead #finewine #92babieswhereyaat #bday #getmebodied #vsco

My voice may only resonate so far, but my stance is limitless. I find now is the time to become strong and unified in myself: mind, body and soul. That stance on life is what will carry to others. Finding my strengths and weakness, and taking ownership and responsibility for them. We all play a part in creating this reality before us now, whether that’s through our action or inaction. It all begins with becoming a self-realized being, standing on my own two feet, thinking critically for myself, and not giving my power and energy away to limited groups/people. I choose what I consume. How I think, act, sleep, eat, drink and the terms/boundaries of my interactions. By doing so, not only is a healthy relationship with myself established but I develop and even demand a culture of accountability, honor and respect around me. I hope to enable others to do the same. It allows us to come together in a civil, respectful manner, differences and all. Diversity is a part of human evolution. When we take one stance and refuse to hear the opposition, there’s no challenge for growth. Refusing to be a part of the endless echo chambers, not taking an oppositional stance so personally, opening the ears, opening the mind and opening the heart. At the end of the day, we’re all humans having a human experience. #thanksfortheread #morningrambles #ponderthat #mood #community #feelingthis #bw #monochrome #vsco #vscocam
Just finished this sweet read that I won from a @goodreads giveaway! @kensingtonbooks sene me this copy of @fernmichaels book #TheBrightestStar I’m so appreciative to have been chosen to receive the book! . Cracking open the cover we meet Lauren Montgomery, a successful biography author, who is in the midst of trying to keep her family business (a Christmas themed store 🎄) afloat. Along her journey we meet sweet characters such as Charlotte, Brent, and John. Each character brings out something different in Lauren and I really liked getting to know her. She really treats people well y’all! A bit of romance rounds out the story and at 257 pages it’s an easy read for me and definitely made me smile in many parts. 3 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me! . . . #WhatImReading #Bookstagram #TheCajunBookworm #BookWorm #BookNumber45 #GoodReadsGiveaway #ThanksForTheRead

Caught while doing prints in the children's section @crisweer I wish every exhibition would offer a related hands on experience for all age groups. Or any interaction rather than being left alone in just admiring the artworks. It makes one to understand at least one part of the artistic process ➕ IT'S GREAT FUN!! In Singapore I often experienced that the exhibition supervisors would simply approach me offering some information about the works I was looking at or about the artist. Always being considerate and never being intrusive. Isn't that great? #singapore #nationalgallery #museum #exhibition #artworks #architecture #oneofmyfavouriteplace #lovehandsonstuff #trytobespontanousaskids #thanksfortheread

I’ve had some of the hardest few days & tonight sat down to open this & it’s just another reminder of God with me. How I love everything in this care package @toninieuwhof but most of all the thoughtfulness & how timely it is. You have encouraged me so well! Those receiving lots of gifts this year, that’s great, but more importantly go out of your way to surprise, encourage & extend kindness as this surpasses everything. #holidayreading #Ilovesoftthings #youdidntevenknow #thosekindcanadians🇨🇦 #Immanuel #remindertome #JesusisSantaclause #thanksfortheread @careynieuwhof 👍
⛓Breakdown/Recovery Trap! ⛓ . Training a muscle until failure for 2hrs a day once a week has been proven to be less beneficial for muscle protein synthesis (aka muscle growth). … So you’re damaging a muscle until you’re super sore the next day or often hear people boasting of not being able to walk, etc. What if these ‘rights of passage’ have it all wrong. Sure, this may elevate a muscle building signal for some time, but imagine this being your exercise routine/approach every. Week. … Eventually your body gets used to this sort of signal and you enter what is called a muscle plateau, and no matter how much hard work you grind out everyday there is little to no change in your progress/strength/physical appearance. Hello muscle plateau. 😖 and hello discouragement. … Our bodies are incredibly smart and will adapt to whatever stimulus you throw at it. Maybe next time try manipulating your reps. Change it up - if you’re consistently hammering out low rep strength-type training (6-8reps) switch it up to hypertrophy rep ranges of 10-15reps and vice versa!! 💪🏼 Add some sets or decrease them. Try different exercises, but keep it simple/basic - you don’t need to be doing all that fancy 💩 that’s posted all over IG 🤔👎🏼 … Train different muscle groups multiple times a week not just once! 🤔👍🏼 Don’t just train to failure every time and expect a change. Maybe even change that up if that’s all you do, and try adding lighter/higher volume lifting sessions. … You don’t need to become a bone-aching, sore body in order to know your body is changing - remember that muscle building signal lasts after a proper lift up to 24-48hrs then fades regardless of whether you’re still sore or not. So lets put recovery first and our egos aside. No need to go #beastmode every session in the gym in order to see #gains - keep it simple and consistently progress until you notice a plateau - then change it up - it doesn’t always have to be an ego lift✌🏼 #worksmarternotharder #thanksfortheread! . #aimntribe . . . #progressnotperfection #musclebreakdowntrap #itsatrap #recover #rest #nutrition #strength #shelifts #chickswholift #bodybuilding #fitgirlguides #athlete #bikini #npc #bouldershoulder

One of the coolest things we’ve started in 2018!! A Book Club!! 📚🤓 This month was an autobiography by Richard Feynman... physicist and nobel prize winner!! The book discussion was engaging and we could all agree that Mr. Feynman was quite the character - The effort he put into acquiring skills and working hard to improve his processes was something to be admired and emulated!! He certainly had an enthusiasm for life and trying new things. Thanks for the inspiration Mr. Feynman!! . . . #thanksfortheread #improvementeveryday #2020geomatics #surveying #sasksmallbusiness #surveylife

Been almost 3 and half years that I decided that being fit was gonna be my lifestyle. It has been a killer rollercoaster 😅 First picture was after I had Claire doing a lot cardio and home work outs. Second picture I was very iffy but I started lifting weights but I wasn’t working out regularly hitting my heaviest weight 😔 last year in the fall I started picking it back up by getting into running and lifting weights but drinking was a major factor that I wasn’t seeing results. Last picture is today, really slowing down on my drinking 🎉 I’m not at my goal but I’m very content to where I am. Getting back into fitness was a must for me, it helped me physically and mentally to get stronger ❤️ #transformation #thanksfortheread ☺️

It was a productive afternoon yesterday - I made a batch tangy and moist mini Key Lime Pies. \o/ @eunicekyc has been craving for it + I'm a fantastic sister = #yums #awesomeness #handache #selfpraise :p This classic American dessert has an origin from the late 19th century, in the Key West, Florida. An legislation was passed by both the Florida House of Representatives and the Florida Senate of selecting "Key lime pie" as the official pie of the state of Florida. #wow #statepie #historyclass Our state pie would probably be the roti boom. x) This is a pretty simple recipe, consisting of a few key ingredients (heh #punny) like the Key Lime juice, egg yolks (I used egg whites), sweetened condensed milk and a pie crust. #recipe #googleitplease THE TOUGHEST PART IS SQUEEZING THE LIME JUICE. #whew #died Due to my ignorance I probably bought the sturdiest lime which is also juiceless #ohmygosh #ouch And I have to make 3/4 cup of juice happen. Anyhoo its worthed it in the end - These zesty oven-baked treats are refreshing and indulgent esp when chilled! ;)) #yumyumyum #delish P/S The name Key Lime is cause the fruit is flourished in the area of Florida Keys. Its size ranges from a ping pong ball to a golf ball. The peel is thin, smooth and greenish-yellow. #extrainformation #chooseyourlimeswisely #savethesuffer DON'T EVER BUY TINY GREEN ONES.
