It's a good thing the One Room Challenge has been extended from six weeks to eight, because we accomplished exactly nothing during week 1, and week 2 isn't shaping up to be much more productive on the bathroom makeover front. We've have some family matters that are taking priority right now, but I did want to pop in quickly tonight with a quick update to show you a few inspiration photos. Then next week, I'll share the detailed plans for this space... and hopefully soon after that we'll actually ... View the Post

Closet Doors & Paint – One Room Challenge: Week 4
The floor drama that I told you about last week took some extra time and slowed us down a bit, but we quickly got back on track and checked two more big items off of the home office to-do list. As a reminder- here's where we left off last week... When we first moved into our house, the home office (which is actually just a basement bedroom) had bypass / sliding closet doors. Here's a picture from move-in day back in 2008 when the room was still empty. In the fall of 2019, when I was ... View the Post

An Easy Way to File Recipe Clippings and Delivery Menus
Try as I might, magazines always manage to pile up around our house. But I just can't let go of them until I've had a chance to tear out any ideas I might want to save for later - especially recipes. So this morning, while the kids played, I dedicated an hour to flipping through a stack of magazines, tearing out all the recipes I want to try. As the I tossed all the recipe clippings into a pile, I realized today would be a perfect time to show you the simple filing system I use in the kitchen ... View the Post
Stylish & Functional Linen Closet Organization
Last fall, when I decided to give the laundry closet a major makeover to make it brighter and more functional, I knew that meant the linen closet would need a makeover as well. The linen closet is adjacent to the laundry closet in our second floor hallway, and while each is accessed by its own set of doors, internally there is no division between the two spaces. But beyond just getting a new, coordinating look, this was the perfect excuse for me to finally achieve a more organized and ... View the Post
{organizing with style} A Filing System for Menus and Recipe Clippings
Does this ever happen to you... You are in the middle of a big project when some small pile of clutter catches your eye, and even though it's been that way for a long time, it suddenly seems imperative that you stop the big project you are working on to address it immediately. I call it Organization Procrastination. Or maybe Organization A.D.D. is a better way to describe it?! Well, that happened to me a while back. I was in the middle of a larger project in the kitchen, when all of ... View the Post

That moment when the phone rings with friends asking if they can stop by, and you look around the house wondering how much you can clean up in the next 30 minutes before they arrive.

With young kids and a new puppy in the ... View the Post
{diy with style} Summer Fun with DIY Wooden Yard Dice
A few weeks back I was browsing my local Crate & Barrel's extensive line of stylish outdoor furniture and summer entertaining accessories. I was scoping out their outdoor games when I spotted a set of five Wooden Yard Dice. I have many fond memories of playing Yahtzee with my grandparents, so I love the idea of introducing my kids to some fun dice games while playing in the yard this summer - but the $60 price tag of the Crate & Barrel dice made me do a double take! Hello DIY ... View the Post
{organizing with style} Tutorial for Creating Vinyl Labels for Bathtub Toy Storage
Thanks to all those who checked out my recent project to create stylish tub toy storage in our guest bathroom. As promised, I am back to give you the details on how I made the labels for the storage bins. These labels are made from adhesive-backed vinyl, which can be purchased at many craft stores as well as online. This is the same kind of vinyl that can be used to create wall quotes and other kinds of wall decals. It sticks well, but can easily and safely be removed at ... View the Post
{organizing with style} Matching Spice Jars & Ombre Spice Racks In the Pantry
They say time flies when you are having fun, so I must be having a lot of fun organizing our home! I am slowly working to get caught up blogging about projects I completed last year, and, looking at the date stamps on the photos of the spice racks we installed in the pantry, I realize that I've been enjoying this beauty of a project for well over six months now! #badblogger But I'm a glass half full kind of girl, so I'll put a positive spin on my tardiness in sharing this project... ...
