A few months ago I shared my 10 Steps to Get Organized & Stay Organized, and it prompted a lot of questions from readers. You all wanted to know where I like to shop for organizing products and which are my favorite products. So today I've put together a list of my go-to organizing products! This list certainly doesn't cover every bin, basket or container I've used in our house, but these are my favorite products - the ones I always think of first when I get ready to organize a new ...

How to Organize a Small Reach-In Pantry
Do you drool over those gorgeous walk-in pantry organization photos in magazines and on Pinterest? Me too! The only problem is that I don't have a walk-in pantry to make gorgeous! But after living in a condo for years with no pantry at all, even a smallish reach-in pantry seemed like such a luxury when we moved in to our current home. It took me years to figure out how to organize the pantry to make the most of our space, but after some failed attempts, I've finally figured out how to create a ... View the Post
Organizing Cords & Cables
I've been working on several big organizing projects recently, one of which is organizing all a hall closet that houses, among other things, all of our small electronics - everything from cameras and video cameras, to iPods, iPads and portable speaker. And every one of these items comes with at least one, if not two or more, cords and cables. The closet organizing project is still a work in progress, but I did just complete one key component - taming all of those cords and cables! I'm sure ... View the Post
The 13 Best Back to School Organizing Ideas
My boys started back to school this week, so we spent the weekend in back to school prep mode! We shopped for school supplies and new clothes, and of course, spent some time getting the house organized and ready for the fall routine. I've rounded up all of my best back to school organizing ideas, including kitchen organizing tips to make breakfast and school lunch packing easier, tips for organizing homework, schoolwork, and art work, and tips to keep your morning routine running ...

{decorating with style} The Easiest Way to Create a Mood Board
It's been a little quiet on the blog this week because I've been so busy behind the scenes to get ready for our next big project. The One Room Challenge kicks off again next week, and this time we'll be tackling our master bathroom. Putting together the mood board and design plans for the bathroom makeover reminded me that many readers have asked me to share a tutorial on how I create my mood boards, so today is the day! Whenever I begin designing a new space, whether for ... View the Post
{gifts with style} Custom Animal Board Book
As I sit here writing this post, I still can't quite wrap my mind around the fact that in three weeks or less we will be a family of four! Nonetheless, preparations for baby's arrival are in full swing! In addition to folding onesies, buying newborn diapers and sterilizing bottles - one of our main focuses has been doing all we can to prepare Beckett for the new baby that will soon change his world. Since he'll only be 17 months old when the baby arrives, I know that his ... View the Post
{gifts with style} Wedding Photo Framed By Vows
This weekend, Scott and I will be celebrating our 6th wedding anniversary. In honor of our upcoming anniversary, I want to share a few ideas for creating personalized home decor that celebrates wedding memories, starting today with a spin on a traditional framed photo. Our wedding was a beautiful event, and we have lots of photos from that day displayed throughout our house. But what I most want to remember from that day are the promises that Scott and I made to one another. ... 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
Sesame Street Birthday Party Ideas
I am relieved happy to report that our second attempt at Beckett's birthday party was a huge success! {If you missed all the drama, you can read the full story of why the first party had to be cancelled, leaving me in tears.} This past Saturday, we managed to entertain 30+ toddlers without too much chaos, and I heard more than one little boy declare it "the best party ever!" on his way out the door. Now I fully realize that this is one of those "you say that to all the girls" ... View the Post
Easy DIY Party Backdrops
We held Beckett's Sesame Street themed birthday party at our local rec center rather than at our house, which was great for hosting a large group of toddlers, but it also meant that we had only a limited amount of time to set up. As a result, I needed to keep the decorations simple. As you saw in yesterday's post with all the party details, the decorations were limited to the brightly colored table cloths, the Sesame Street inspired "street" signs on the craft and food tables, and the two DIY ...

DIY Numbered Storage Bins
Beckett is two and a half, and it is such a wonderful age! He is so curious and eager to learn new things, and he asks the best questions! He can sing the alphabet and counts really well, but he doesn't yet recognize all of the letters and numbers, so it was important to me, in planning the design for his new room, to find a way to incorporate the alphabet and numbers to help him learn. To stay true to the vintage vibe of the room, I created typewriter key alphabet flashcards that hang above the ... View the Post
First Birthday Mustache Bash!
I know probably every parent feels like the first year flies by, but I really can't believe that Cooper is one. ONE! It seems like just yesterday that I was announcing his birth here on the blog, and showing you precious photos of Beckett meeting his new little brother for the very first time {those photos still bring tears to my eyes!}. A couple of weekends ago we invited all of our family, and our friends with kids near Cooper's age, to help us celebrate this milestone birthday with a ... View the Post
