I’ve thought for some time about one of the best ways to showcase my favourite merchandise on my weblog and socials, after which what to call it! The title was sorted once I instructed my buddy {that a} new skincare product obtained a “gold star” from me, and I’m excited to kick off my new collection.
Gold Stars will function weblog posts on merchandise that I really like and suggest, which can be definitely worth the cash, and that I’ll proceed to purchase. From eye lotions to candles to weighted blankets to sports activities bras, I’ll be together with all types of merchandise that I exploit each day and really feel add worth to my life.
Over the previous 12 months or so, I’ve actually targeted on eliminating stuff I don’t want and use. I’m not exaggerating once I say that I now solely have 20% of the issues – furnishings, clothes, footwear, equipment, house items, magnificence merchandise – that I had once I first moved again from Chicago. An enormous a part of this course of was figuring out which merchandise I’ve purchased as a result of I assumed they have been *cool* or *fashionable* however don’t really like (I fell for lots of the deficit promoting gimics!) after which on the flip facet, which merchandise I hit empty on and rush to switch, or wish to purchase in a number of colours.
We don’t want new issues on a regular basis, and we will’t fall into the promoting traps that inform us shopping for new issues makes us higher, extra worthy, and extra fascinating. My purpose with this collection is to not shill new gadgets ceaselessly, it’s fairly to point out you the vetted merchandise that make my day-to-day life somewhat higher, are good high quality, and have been a wise funding for me and my way of life. When you’re out there for one thing comparable, nice! If not, additionally nice!
Plenty of these Gold Star gadgets can be issues I bought as soon as many moons in the past however nonetheless have, which is a testomony to the standard and stage of usefulness. The wonder merchandise clearly should be changed way more usually, however I come again to them time and time once more.
Gold Stars can be on my weblog feed, with every product getting its personal function put up, however will stay within the class to which every product belongs – ex: my favourite candle can be within the “house” part of my weblog! They’ll even be present in my menu below “store” in a single concise location.
