Back when I was in law school, I bought several pieces of inexpensive, white laminate furniture with the plan to repaint them for my first solo apartment. The only problem was that I didn't know how to paint laminate furniture, so my simple little DIY plans quickly turned into a big mess with the paint literally peeling off in sheets. Now here I am, all these years later, looking to upgrade the style in my living room, and what do I decide to do? Buy some inexpensive, white furniture and add ... View the Post
Printable Dolittle Activities
We've always enjoyed family movie nights, but lately, we've also been enjoying family movie mornings and afternoons. There's nothing like the smell of popcorn and the sound of kids laughing to brighten all these days stuck at home. This past weekend we picked up the new Dolittle DVD along with some other essentials using the Walmart Pickup Service, and it was the perfect choice! We all loved it, and the boys have already watched it three or four more times {which I can tell is just the ... View the Post
Easter Egg Lego Scavenger Hunt Ideas
Easter is just around the corner, and I love making the morning special for the kids with an Easter Egg Hunt. Each year, we come up with creative non candy Easter egg fillers. Last year, I came up with a new idea that proved to be a huge hit - Legos! The night before Easter, I opened the box of Legos and emptied all of the pieces into a bowl. Then I filled each of our plastic Easter eggs with a handful of pieces, dividing them up evenly between all of the eggs. Most years we attend a ... View the Post
Backpacks For a Cause with Cricut
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. With everything going on in the world lately, I am more grateful than ever for our home where my family feels comfortable, safe, and secure. But imagine what it's like for a child where home doesn't provide that same sense of security. There are approximately 40,000 children in Foster Care nationwide, and for most children, their entry into the Foster Care system is an emergency situation resulting ... View the Post
How to Store Jigsaw Puzzles In Less Space
If your family has a lot of puzzles, then you know how much space they take up on a shelf. For the past few years, I've been organizing our puzzles using an easy, space-saving method, and I decided it was time that I share my tip for how to store jigsaw puzzles. My kids have aged into more challenging puzzles, so we donated most of their "little kid" puzzles. They recently got quite a few new puzzles for Christmas and birthdays, so I decided it was the perfect time for me to show you my ... View the Post
Under Bathroom Sink Organization Ideas for Small Powder Room Cabinets
I like the style of the floating cabinet in our powder room, but it's very limited on actual storage space. I've had a hard time finding an under bathroom sink organizer that would fit around the pipes in this tiny cabinet. Over the years, I purchased a few options - but each time I broke my own cardinal rule and didn't measure first, so not surprisingly, none of them fit. As a result, the cabinet ended up looking like this for far too long... I know I'm not the only one with a very ... View the Post
Five Minute Laundry Closet Organizing Hacks
If you have a washer and dryer in a closet, rather than a more spacious laundry room, then you know that it can be hard to organize this space to fit everything you need.

This post contains some ... View the Post
One-Stop Shopping Holiday Gift Guide
Thank you to Office Depot for sponsoring this post. When I was a kid, I counted down to the holidays and time seemed to move so slowly it felt like we'd never get to winter break. As an adult, between running a business and parenting, it feels like I blink and the holidays have come and gone. This year, I'm trying hard to slow down and simplify a bit so that I can really enjoy the season and create lots of memories with my own kids. It's easy to get overwhelmed by the holiday ...

Reusable Monogram Gift Tags Made with Cricut
I am so grateful to my friends at Cricut for sponsoring this holiday DIY project. A couple of years ago, I used my Cricut to make numbered gift tags for the 24 books that we wrap every holiday season for the boys to open each night leading up to Christmas.

I once again used my Cricut and created some simple DIY monogram gift tags. I made a set of ... View the Post
Time Management Tips for Busy Mompreneurs
Thank you to Office Depot for sponsoring this post. As always, all ideas and opinions are my own. Mompreneur was a term I hadn't even heard of before having kids, but through a series of life events I've found myself with this title and all of the perks and challenges that come with it. Balancing being a small-business-owner and work-from-home mom is a constant work in progress, but this year, as my business has grown, I've come up with some pretty good systems to keep me on track. ...
