We had sub-zero temperatures in Denver all of last week, and while it was too cold to play outside in the snow, I instead had fun decorating with snowflakes inside. Last year I stocked up on large, felt snowflake ornaments at Target (only $1 each - what a deal!). Many of those snowflakes made their way onto our beautifully baby-friendly Christmas tree, and the rest are now part of a fun window display in our kitchen. We have a lot of long, thin windows throughout our house, which ... View the Post
{seasonal style} Hanging Back to Back Wreaths on Glass Front Doors
Last year I found a super cute wreath at Target covered in red, white and grey sweater balls. I just had to have it (two in fact)... but where to hang them? Even with our front porch being covered, I just wasn't sure these wreaths would hold up to the elements if I hung them on outside of our front doors. I also knew, however, that if I hung them on the inside of the front doors they would cast a shadow through the frosted glass that would look odd from outside. The solution - hang ... View the Post
{seasonal style} A Glass Ornament Window Display
Earlier this week I shared how we made our Christmas tree both beautiful and baby friendly. I am totally smitten with our Christmas tree, but I also have so many pretty glass ornaments that I love, and I didn't want to leave them just sitting in storage boxes for years until our boys are old enough to no longer need a baby safe tree. So today I want to show you the window display I created to hang all of our delicate, glass ornaments safely out of the reach of little hands. I created ... View the Post
{seasonal style} A Beautifully Baby-Friendly Christmas Tree
I love me a pretty Christmas tree, but we all know that glass ornaments and babies are not a match made in heaven! Before we had kiddos, we usually put up a small-ish Christmas tree in our main floor living room filled with shiny and sparkly glass ornaments - but I always knew that once kids came along I wanted to put a larger tree in our basement family room. Last year was Beckett's first Christmas, and we promptly bought a new, larger Christmas tree (pre-lit = bonus!). But as I ... View the Post

{organizing with style} An Organized Holiday Shopping List Using Google Drive
My name is Angela, and I'm addicted to making lists! There I said it. The first step is admitting you have a problem, right? Ok, so maybe list making is not really a huge problem, but they way I typically go about it is problematic. I have a tendency to grab a notepad and make my list and put it in my purse where it promptly gets wrinkled and eventually lost. I don't know about you, but I get about a million catalogs in the mail, and they seem to double around the holidays. ... View the Post

{decorating with style} A Big Boy Room Furniture Plan
Now that we've finally decided on a design concept for Beckett's new "big boy room" {Vintage Preppy Lounge}, I am eager to purchase the furniture and see the space start to come together. As I always do before buying any furniture for a room, I started by measuring the space and graphing it out in Photoshop so that I could play around with potential furniture layout options. Initially I had one vision for the room layout, and Scott had a very different idea of where the furniture should be ... View the Post
{decorating with style} And the Winner Is…

Restaurant Kit for Eating Out with Little Ones
Eating out with young children can be a challenge, but Scott and I like to live on the wild side. Of course, it was a little easier when it was just Beckett, but even now that we are a family of four, we still venture out to restaurants on a fairly regular basis. Every once in awhile we end up having to ask for our food to go if the kids decide not to cooperate, but usually Beckett and Cooper are on their best behavior and manage to charm everyone at the surrounding tables. For me, the biggest ... View the Post
