Why You Need Shelf Liner + Cleaning & Organizing Hacks

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Duck Brand Easy Liner. All opinions are 100% mine. If you've ever asked if it's really necessary or worth the time to use shelf or drawer liners, you're not alone. I've wondered the same over the years, and I've sometimes skipped this important step, only to go back and redo it later. Since it's a common question, I thought it would be helpful to share why you need shelf and drawer liner. And since we all love cleaning and organizing hacks, ... View the Post

How to Create Wall Words Using Cricut

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. This post also contains affiliate links. If you purchase something I recommend, you'll pay the same price, but I may receive a small commission. A few years ago, when asked to describe my home style in three words, I came up with MODERN. GRAPHIC. FAMILY. While "family" isn't a style in the traditional sense, to me it means creating a home that tells my family's unique story. As a result, our decor ... View the Post

Five Ways to Get Your Home Organized With Cricut Joy

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. Cricut has long been established as the ultimate crafting tool! And while I get my craft on from time to time, I've always used my Cricut cutting machine primarily for organizing. While I love my Cricut Explore Air (and am coveting a Cricut Maker for it's ability to cut even more materials), the truth is that both machines are much more powerful than what I need for the majority of my projects. I love ... View the Post

How to Paint Laminate Furniture the Right Way

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

Life With Kids

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. A while back, I gave my laundry closet a major makeover, and while some of the big DIY projects are the first to catch you eye - like the green cabinets above the washer and dryer - this space is actually full of quick and easy organizing hacks that you can complete in about five minutes each.

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 ... View the Post
