Happy St. Patrick's Day, Glam Fam!

Today we come full circle to the beginning of the Seasonal Living Master Class. A year ago today, I filmed this vlog as a teaser trailer for this community showing how I prepped for a glam St. Patrick's Day.

In this video, I show you how to cook, bake and serve a beautiful and traditional St. Patrick's Day feast complete with crock pot corned beef and cabbage, potatoes and carrots, plus Irish beer bread.

This is also the beginning of my partnership with Community Manager Ally, and the first vlog she edited for the three membership communities.

During the spring season of new life, it's important to revisit how far we've come in the last year before we begin again.

“Isn't it funny how day by day nothing changes but when you look back, everything is different?” ― C. S. Lewis

I hope this video gives you new inspiration for your St. Patrick's Day celebration. 🌈☀️

Happy Wednesday, Glam Fam! 💐

God & Glam gathers Tuesday nights for a live seasonal Bible Study from my living room to yours. In this season of Lent, we are journeying towards Easter together.

When we enter into Lent, and make space for God to take from us all that is not of Him, He gets to work. He uses his healing touch to show us the places and the spaces where we’re in desperate need of His truth and His unfailing love.

At the beginning of Lent, this tends to feel like emotional surgery, awake without plan killers or anesthesia. But as we walk closer to Easter, and there is more of Him and less of us, we wake to find ourselves whole and healed, often in places we didn’t even know were broken.

🍋 Join us for the Lent Experience!

Join me for the Paper & Glam Book Club Spring Read-A-Thon ☘️
📚 https://www.patreon.com/paperandglambookclub

Tomorrow we kick off our inaugural Spring Read-a-thon culminating in the March Reading Master Class on the 24th.

For just over three weeks we'll look at our spring TBRs and P&G monthly title with fresh eyes, while we play bookish bingo to cross off as many seasonal reading experiences as we can.

On March 24th at Glam Time (6 PT/9 ET), we'll gather together to share which titles we read, how we colored in our bingo boards, and how the read-a-thon experience contributed to our literary lifestyle and reading goals.

If your 2022 reading goal is to read along with the P&G monthly titles, you'll find our March selection checks off lots of prompts, plus the bingo board features seasonal experiences to enjoy with this month's pick.

What titles are you planning to read during our read-a-thon?
I'd love to know in the comments! Plus, see your bookstacks over in the members Facebook group.

With literary love,
Lisamarie 📚💕

Happy Friday, Glam Fam! ✨

We had a super fun "girl's night in" at Book Club discussing this chick lit title last night. We talked female social dynamics, how lack of purpose dulls our shine, and comparison culture.

📚 https://www.patreon.com/paperandglambookclub

The replay of our discussion of That's What Frenemies Are For is LIVE on Patreon for your bookish delight.

Did you love it or hate it, or love to hate it? How many hearts, sisters?! Our informal live poll rating came in around ❣️❣️❣️.

🐝 Read With Us Next Month
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd is our March title. We'll be discussing this contemporary coming-of-age classic, Thursday, March 31st during March's Book Club live gathering.

The 2022 Seasonal Living Lists are selling fast! There are 25 left and that's a wrap for this glam new year.

Shop HERE to get yours delivered in hot pink!
https://shop.paperandglam.com/products/seasonal-living-lists

On January 1, 2015, I released the first Seasonal Living Lists to help women plan for a beautiful, seasonal life. For seven years, they've supported this community as we intentionally plan to engage deeply with each month.

Bringing our beloved Seasonal Living Lists into the new era was a journey. Once I finished the Seasonal Living Lists, I would print them and go over them “one last time.” With each new pass, I found something that wasn’t quite in alignment with how I want to experience my seasonal year, or something that no longer fits the new era. As an example, Face Mask Day on August 11th meant something entirely different the last time I released these lists publicly on December 1st, 2019.

After months of reflection and revision, our Seasonal Living Lists got a makeover worthy of their 8th year, the number of new life. These lists give us more alignment with the Paper & Glam lifestyle and its four pillars of Planning, Book Club, Bible Study, and Seasonal Living.

May these lists support you in your journey to create a beautiful, seasonal life.

Cheers to the next chapter...the best is yet to come.

Love & joy,
Lisamarie ✨

It’s time for a comeback, Paper & Glam Sisters! 💐

A year ago everything in my life changed, both personally and professionally. Like so many of us, I walked into the darkest year of my life. It was a year of Good Friday and Holy Saturday, waiting for Easter Sunday. To quote the Chronicles of Narnia, “it was always winter, never spring.” For twelve long months, I was alone in my home, waiting for God to roll away the stone.

And then, all at once…DAYLIGHT. As I write this today, everything has changed once again (that’s the second Taylor Swift reference if you’re counting). God took my life from Friday to Sunday, from darkness to light, from death to life...He who promised proved Himself faithful (Hebrews 10:23), once again.

I’m coming into a spring in life. But even now, I’m praying for a resurrection for Paper & Glam. It’s time for a comeback like “what no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” (1 Corinthians 2:9).

Or a comeback stronger than a 90s trend, I’ll take either.
(3rd Taylor Swift reference. 🤷🏼‍♀️)

If you’re also praying for a comeback in your life, let’s walk this road together.

We meet every Monday night at 6 PM PT/9 PM ET live on Zoom right here ➡️ https://www.patreon.com/godandglam

Come as you are. Whether you've read or not, whether you're "caught up" or not, whether you're wearing pants or not...bring an open Bible and an open heart. That’s all you need. Nothing more and nothing less is required to walk from death to life, from wrong to right, from darkness to daylight.

In the church, Easter is a 50 day season that extends on from Easter Sunday. Though the Easter baskets and bunnies are now in our memory planners, we’re just beginning the celebration of Christ’s victory over death. In this season, may we remember His victory is ours. Whatever you’re facing today, victory is His promise, and it is not possible for God to fail you.

Love never fails. So if it failed, it wasn’t love.

See you tonight.

Love & light,
Lisamarie ✨

It's fall y'all!🍁✨

If your life is anything like mine, it frequently doesn’t go as planned. For us planners, this begs the question, how do we plan ahead when plans often change? Today we’re walking through my “plan as I go” approach to planning and memory keeping.

I hope this video helps you find the balance between planning ahead and remaining flexible to the ebb and flow of life.
