Hello from Saved From Salvage! How was your week? I’m excited to share what I’ve been up to.
Dempsey and I had a wonderful trip to see my sister last weekend. I got to meet the cutest little grand baby and visit with my nephew and family.
It makes me realize how important it is to stay connected to those we love
On Monday morning Dempsey refused to come to work with me. This was him Sunday night.

what i’ve been up to
After all of our organizing and new shelving, this was the first time we didn’t have to spend hours neatening to prepare for the cleaning lady to come. That feels amazing!
Carmine made an amazing paella this week, I’ll have to share the recipe soon, it is the best.
We headed out to a local restaurant this week, Dutch’s Daughter. Located in Frederick, it has the best food and service – what a treat!
what i’m planning
Today is a 3 hour class on Pinterest with my Blog Tribe, and then Carmine and I are off to the Capitals hockey game. This was a Christmas gift from my son. I’m looking forward to it, Carmine and I will be rooting for different teams but that’s nothing new.
This is a 3 day weekend and I don’t hate it. Tomorrow Carmine is headed to NJ to practice driving with his oldest granddaughter, better him than me!
I’ll be working on a dresser in the sunroom that has been patiently waiting on a makeover. I’ll keep you posted.
what i’ve been working on
This week I led a workshop on DIY SHOWER MELTS. I spent 3 nights this week working on my recipes, presentation and content.
It was loads of fun, the classroom never smelled so good. Everyone was super happy to go home with a shower melt I made, one I bought and 8 they made.
Have you ever made them? They were so easy and quick to make. I’m hooked. I’m thinking about hosting a get together with girlfriends to make some together.
what i’m loving
coffee table book
I love magazines and books like this. I don’t seem to have the time or take the time to read fiction lately. But I do love to dream and drool over homes and touches you can find in this book. It includes some DIY’s as well.
shower steamer dish
Well since I just made the shower steamers, I had to have this. It seems more intentional to place the disc in this little tray.
ribbed dress
I bought this in four colors. It’s perfect to dress up or down. I’ve worn with boots and tights, flats and tennis shoes. Such an easy dress to throw on and the high color is what I love. It’s on sale for $21 – a steal!
ZIP DRESS
I had gift cards to Athleta and settled on this cute dress. I am all over at work and often wear tennis shoes. This pairs perfectly for that look. Super super soft too – oh and on sale!

Leslie Watkins says
I’ve never heard of shower melts! How fun! Is Dempsey a therapy dog? My niece has therapy dogs and takes them with her to work at a nursing home…she’s a physical therapist. Love that! A three hour Pinterest workshop is so needed here. Hope you learned loads…if you ever need another to join…let me know!Happy weekend!
Regina says
Leslie – Dempsey is an unofficial therapy dog. He has come to work most days since he was a puppy. He is the staff’s emotional support animal and members at our community center both old and young love visiting with him. Are you still in a tribe? Seems like forever ago.
I am always happy and willing to share whatever I’m learning along the way 🙂

Hello Regina!
Your adventure to visit your sister and grandniece? sounds like fun. You are so right, it is important to take the time to connect and re-connect with family and friends.
It is always fun to see what you have been up too. I love the shower steamer! And the shoes steamer plate.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Regina says

Tammy says
Regina, glad to hear I am not the only one that tidy up before the cleaning lady comes. LOL I have never tried shower melts/streamers. I will have to check them out.
Regina says
Tammy, I felt a little silly sharing that but it was the truth! Thanks for stopping by the lake 😉
