I have been blessed to meet a group of amazing women that make up the CSC Mommy Blogger Tribe and it seems like we’re growing every day. I say it all the time but I’m really shy these ladies allow me to show up authentically. We all have such different personalities but we’re able to learn and lean on each other for advice.

This month we headed to Lexington, SC to visit the AR Workshop. They are located at 5175 Sunset Blvd, Ste. 6, Lexington, SC 29072. I had no real idea of what to expect – think paint and sip meets wood work! The place is beautiful and the staff was wonderful. Everything was setup for us when we arrived and we were walked through the entire process. I was a little nervous when I realized I really had to do the project by myself. This is a real DIY, y’all so brace yourself, it will be worth it in the end.

AR Workshop is a national brand, so no worries if you’re not local you can still check them out. They are great for date nights, parties and so much more. The projects are endless and you will want to come back for more. My kids were so impressed with me that they want to join in on the fun, so I will be back!

We were allowed to bring in outside food but you will need to supply your own supplies. Clean Juice Lexington provided our bites for the evening and they offer catering for all of your clean eating needs. I was able to try my first acai bowl and I’m addicted.

The night ended beautifully, we were all able to take home projects that we could be proud of. So, if you’re local, you’re in luck. AR Workshop graciously gave me a coupon code to share with you, use code: FREELY10 now until April 30, 2020 FOR 10% off any upcoming projects!

If you’re ever visiting Columbia, SC make sure you check out The Grand! It’s Columbia’s newest hotspot and I’m here for it. The Grand so graciously hosted our group; the CSC Mommy Blogger Tribe for brunch and everything was delicious! I didn’t even know they served brunch so this was a sweet treat for me!

The ladies and I ordered and shared a little bit about ourselves since we had some new ladies with us; Ashley (Soda City Mom) and Christy (MessyAsAMother)! I gained some valuable knowledge from each of the ladies and I can’t wait until our meet up again in January!

The Grand is a great place to visit for a night out on the town. They have a tap room, a full bowling alley and games galore! They are located in Downtown Columbia, SC and have a great menu that will fit anyone’s taste buds, even the picky eater (I am one.) They even take reservations so it’s perfect for groups. They also have separate area available for rent!
