Soap Making, Oils and Recipes
I am not sure if there should be an age limit to this one but I know my 5 year old daughter loves it. I am not sure how this look would quite be fitting for school pickup or a soccer mom outfit but it is fun.
This brings me to an important question – at what age should we start acting our age?
Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster
Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.
That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.
What Are Calm Down Sheets?
These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.
They’re perfect for:
Rage coloring during a hot flash
Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly
Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils
Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative
Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause
There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
Love the Bow.
As to what age? Never. As we get older (and I am) some people think we should cut our hair short and wear flowery shifts. Fine for them if that is what they want! If you still want to wear young hip clothes, put you hair in a “real bow” then go for it. Life is too short to worry about the small stuff. Have fun and enjoy life and yourself at every age!
Well, I’m 66 and still haven’t started acting my age! lol
Frances please please send me a photo of you rocking this look! I would love to swap out the young model for a styling lady. 🙂
I’m 36 and still often wear my hair in plaits and Pucca-style buns (although my favourite is a halo braid). I also love floral hair clips, pretty bobbles and ribbons. My hair is half-way down my back, so I’m looking forward to trying out this style – it’s super cute! Who says we need to have boring hair when we grow up? There’s a lot to be said for being young at heart. 😉
I have a great post is hair scarves coming up I think your going to love. 🙂
Love the bow! And when is anyone too old to do what they want with their hair or wardrobe? NEVER!
