Balancing Pieces

Welcome! I’m Kristen!

Hello & WELCOME to Balancing Pieces!

Thank you for stopping by to check out my blog. My name is Kristen and I started this blog in 2014. I am a work from home Mama to three little ones.

Before working from home as content creator, I worked as a social worker and spent my nights and weekends as a freelance makeup artist.

I started this blog as a creative way to share all parts of my balancing act. I soon realized as a mom, that I now had another part of life to start juggling…hence the whole “Balancing Pieces”… see what I did there.

You’ll soon come to find out that I find myself hilarious!

Anyways back to my story- as a mom, a wife, a makeup artist, a daughter, a sister, a friend, a young woman (see even the list is exhausting) there are a lot of different pieces to juggle in order to stay a sane and productive member of society.

I am here to share my struggles, my accomplishments, my failures- my balancing act.

I am not an expert in anything, nor do I claim to have all the knowledge it requires to operate this thing called life. If you ask my husband he will say that I think differently- but that’s because I’m always right, duh!

While you’re here you’ll find posts about my mom adventures, my Pinterest interests (attempts and failures), recipes , mom hacks, beauty & skincare tips/tricks, organization and other randomness.

Check out BP on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Bloglovin’& Instagram! If you ever have a question about my blog or just want to chat, send me an email at info@balancingpieces.com

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!

I don’t know why I am so excited, it’s not like I have anywhere to go. Target and Starbucks do sound promising for the weekend though!

Swipe to see this sweet babe give unexpected waves and cuddles. What’s your plans for the weekend?
