The challenge is the same in every cabinet under every sink ... so much stuff, so little space! Figuring out how to organize under the bathroom sink is made exponentially more challenging my those darn pipes and hoses that cut through the middle of the space. But I’m finally claiming victory and sharing some under bathroom sink organization ideas and smart space saving tips to help you do the same! In the past, I had made a half-hearted attempt at organizing the bathroom cabinet under my ... View the Post
The Most Popular Organizing and Decorating Ideas
You've probably heard the saying that you have to look back to move forward. I think this is true on many levels, and it's how I always like to start the year. When it comes to the blog, I find it really helpful to look back at the most popular posts from the prior year to see which projects resonate with you - the readers - so that I can create more of the types of content you want. And on the personal side, as I plan my project priorities for the coming year, I like to reflect on the spaces ... View the Post
Inexpensive Wreath Storage Idea
Hanging a pretty wreath on the front door is one of the easiest ways to add some seasonal cheer to your front porch, but storing all those holiday wreaths can become a challenge. This is especially true when you have double doors, resulting in two of every wreath. I speak from experience! I used to just have two Christmas wreaths, but over time, I've added to my collection and now also have sets of front door wreaths for spring, fall, Halloween, and more. I used to use wreath storage bags in ... View the Post
Modern Gallery Wall Idea: Photos with Rounded Corners
When you have a large space to fill, scale is key! We have a lot of high, skinny windows throughout our house, and figuring out how to fill the space below them has been one of my biggest design challenges. In the kitchen dining area, I left the wall blank for ten years because all the art I tried just looked dwarfed by the scale of the wall. Finally, I came across an inspiration photo of an office where an entire wall was filled with three rows of oversized, black and white photos and it ... View the Post
DIY Map Ornaments
I love to travel and I have a bit of an obsession with maps! Years ago I came across a set of gold landmark ornaments that I just couldn't pass up, and I decided then and there that one day I would have a travel-themed Christmas tree. I began looking for a Christmas ornament to bring home as a souvenir from each country we visit. And I also thought it would be really fun idea make a set of DIY map ornaments to commemorate each of our travel destinations. I considered a lot of different ... View the Post
Glam White DIY Christmas Trees
A while back, my mom bought me a variety of unfinished paper mache and wood cutout Christmas trees from Hobby Lobby knowing that I would have fun figuring out a creative way to decorate them. I stalled and stalled and didn't do anything with these Christmas tree crafts for a couple of years - not because I didn't have any ideas, but because I had too many ideas and couldn't make a decision. Does anyone else have this same problem? I call it craft indecisiveness! Finally I realized that I ... View the Post
Gift Guide: Rehearsal Survival Kit for Musicians
We usually wait until Thanksgiving to start decorating for Christmas, but Christmas music season starts in our house way before Halloween. That's what happens when you're married to a professional Christmas caroler and his rehearsals start in early October. Did you even know there was such a thing?! If you've been reading the blog awhile then you may have heard me mention that one of Scott's two careers is as a musical theater performer, but during the holiday season he also sings with a ...

Gift Guide: Educational & Creative Gifts for Kids Who Love Cars
My five year old son is a typical little boy who loves cars, trucks, and pretty much all things transportation. But you can only buy so many hot wheels and toy cars before the law of diminishing returns kicks in. I prefer to buy gifts for my kids that have some kind of educational value, or that stretch their imagination and creativity, and I've managed to find lots of unique gift ideas for boys who love cars. I've compile a list of 40 of the best educational and creative toys, games, and ... View the Post
Modern Dining Room Makeover
I couldn't be more excited to share our dining room makeover with you! This has been my eighth One Room Challenge, and as always it was a race to the finish line... but we made it and the space turned out better than I had imagined. It also remains one of the hardest spaces in our house to photograph, so I hope my pictures do it justice. Our kitchen dining area was the first to be decorated when we moved into our house ten years ago this month. That's because it was one of the few rooms ... View the Post
Dining Room Facelift Progress
It's the final week of the One Room Challenge before the big reveal next week. Our kitchen dining area has come a long way, but we've saved the best for last... which is really just another way of saying that we've procrastinated on a couple of the biggest projects and we'd better hope everything goes smoothly so we can make it to the finish line! This post contains affiliate links. If you purchase something I recommend, you'll pay the same price, but I may receive a small ... View the Post
Easy DIY Lumiere Costume from Beauty & the Beast
My boys love Disney movies, and Beauty and the Beast is one of their favorites. Last year, Beckett and Cooper announced in March that they wanted to be Lumiere and Gaston for Halloween, but I didn't think much of it because I assumed they'd change their minds twenty times by the time the holiday rolled around. But when it got to be October and they were still set on the Beauty and the Beast theme, I realized I'd better get their costumes figured out! I started with a quick online search and ...

Tiled Kitchen Island Ideas
It's week 4 of the One Room Challenge, and it's island time over here. That's not to say that we are taking a leisurely stroll through this kitchen makeover... there is no such thing as leisurely when you're redesigning a space in under six week. Instead, we're planning to take our kitchen island from boring to bold, but it's going to be a race to the finish line to get this project done! When we started planning the redesign of our kitchen dining area, I knew I wanted to make the space ... View the Post
