My Favorite Tools

I am all about efficiency, and these are my favorite tools to accomplish that! 

for the business owner

Honeybook

contracts & payment

I found Honeybook because I needed a secure and professional way to accept payments and send contracts. They also have some pre-made contract templates that helped me get started! Use my affiliate link and you will get 20% off!

Showit

website builder

I love the drag & drop feature of Showit mainly because when I create I want to put things where I want - I don't want to be confined to a table or certain structure. The ability to create and design in this platform is AMAZING, and the community of designers are amazing.

Toggl

time tracking

I track my time for EVERYTHING, and it is so important to be accurate. I love their reporting and the reminders that pop up for me!

Google Workspace

email & domain

I purchased my domain from Google, and use Google Workspace to host my domain-based email.  Google is the hub for everything!

Planoly

instagram planning

I actually don't post from Planoly, but I LOVE planning out my Instagram feed in it. I get to see exactly how my grid will look before I post.

Canva

quick graphic creation

I love using Canva to create quick Instagram graphics and story layouts, Pinterest graphics, and I use it to create color palettes!

Creative Market

designer goodies

Designers watch out because this is a dangerous site. SO many goodies - accents to add to your website, fonts, and oh so much more.

Noun Project

FREE ICONS

The source for lots of icons to use with your projects. Some are free but some need to be purchased based on their use in your project.

I'm not a reader, but this one was gold! I love the way he thinks about finances, and his snowball method is the best!

These are the best! The number one thing I love is taking out one and having it pause anything I'm listening to. It sounds a bit diva....but I appreciate that function SO much!

If you have dogs that bark as soon as you say 'hello', this is your new best friend. It is 100% safe for your dog, and lets out a noise that they only hear. It distracts them, and it's amazing.

If you can't find the best lighting, you need a ring light. This one has a phone holder and you can dim it if you want.

Fact: I'm the worst with paper planners. This one I have found is the best though for goal planning and weekly planning.

Look Good, Feel Good

I have always believed in waking up, taking a shower, and getting myself ready for the day. I feel good when I do it, and it sets the tone for the day. These are some of my favorite products that I love!

makeup, beauty, and all that girl stuff

full coverage foundation

This foundation is SO light and airy! It was amazing when I tried it the first time, and I couldn't believe the air brush finish it leaves. Apply with my FAVORITE Kabuki brush.

YOUNIQUE TOUCH SPRAY FOUNDATION

light, moisturizing coverage

If you have skin on the more dry side, and don't like a ton of make-up - this is for you! SO moisturizing, and gives you a dewy finish. You can apply it with your fingers or use a brush. I top mine with powder too!

YOUNIQUE BB CREAM

long natural lashes

Best. Mascara. Ever. Longest lashes, doesn't make my eyes itch, and the wand is amazing. I get thicker, longer lashes and the waterproof lasts FOREVER especially in the summer!

YOUNIQUE EPIC MASCARA
(BLACK OR WATERPROOF)

moisturizing lips

My lips need some moisture, and these lip butters are amazing! So soft, and buttery (go figure), and the ingredients are actually good for you like shea butter.

YOUNIQUE WEEKEND
LIP BUTTER

for dry skin

After I exfoliate, everything is so much better! My skin looks better, it feels better, and my makeup goes on SO much smoother. I keep this exfoliating mask in the shower so it's super easy for me!

YOU-OLOGY
EXFOLIATING MASK

a tropical paradise

I apply this hydrating mask at night and actually sleep with it! It smells like a tropical paradise, goes on so smooth and smells delicious. You can sleep with it on or you can apply and remove.

Gifts for Designers

I always planned on one day selling little gifts that went with my business name "Coffee and Flow". I would write down sayings as I would think of them, and finally opened a little Etsy shop to sell them.
