This Unicorn Bowl<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nBut seriously. How adorable is this! I have had a long-standing obsession with unicorns (and rainbows!) and the two of them were married in this beautiful, handmade bowl. Honestly, I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s the fact I have the taste of a 5 year old, but I&#8217;m in love with this bowl. Pulling it down from the cupboard in the morning just makes me smile.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">2. Starbucks Passion Tea<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nHonestly yo, if you have SB addiction and want to keep with the healthy sugar-free life. This. Is. What. You.

Pop in some stevia and it tastes so so similar to their version. Calorie and sugar free! I use NuNaturals <a title=\"Stevia Tablets\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1qG78CQ\" target=\"_blank\">stevia tablets<\/a> and keep them in my purse.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6494\" alt=\"Gilded Gold Jewlery Tree from Uncommon GOods\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Gilded-Gold-Jewlery-Tree-from-Uncommon-GOods-400x600.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Gilded-Gold-Jewlery-Tree-from-Uncommon-GOods-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.colourfulpalate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Gilded-Gold-Jewlery-Tree-from-Uncommon-GOods-800x1200.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>3. Gilded Jewelry Tree<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis is my newest trinket that I&#8217;m very proud to have in my possession. I have been wanting one of these jewelry trees for a long time, I even started hunting for the perfect branches to make my own. However, I have very little faith in my crafty skills, so I nearly died and went to heaven when <a title=\"Uncommon Goods\" href=\"http:\/\/www.uncommongoods.com\/gifts\/personalized\/personalized-gifts\" target=\"_blank\">Uncommon Goods<\/a> sent me this one from their jewelry collection. It&#8217;s absolutely stunning. The base is made of marble and the branches are painted gold, just SO SO classy. It works well for bracelets, rings, and necklaces. Long necklaces and earrings might be more difficult to hang (I mostly wear studs), but you can also drape extra long chains on several branches if this is the only place you keep your jewelry. I keep this in my mint and gold accented bathroom and it has significantly upped the elegant factor.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>4.

Dream Journal<\/strong> <\/span><br \/>\nEver since I was a little girl I kept a dream journal. I thought it was hilarious to read my friends my dreams and I loved the morning routine of grabbing my little notebook and writing down all that fun things I did in my sleep. 15 years later, it&#8217;s apparently become in vogue to keep track of what you dream, whether you&#8217;re 10 or 42 years old. I honestly think this is the cutest journal and a fun morning ritual (check out\u00a0 Uncommon Good&#8217;s other <a title=\"Uncommon Goods\" href=\"http:\/\/www.uncommongoods.com\/fun?active_nav=1&amp;displayedproducts=60&amp;i=1&amp;q1=fun&amp;sale=0&amp;view=all&amp;x1=t0&amp;x2=t1&amp;p=1\" target=\"_blank\">fun items<\/a>!).
