150+ DIY Gift Ideas for Everyone On Your List
Phew! Halloween is over and I'm breathing a big mom sigh of relief that the last minute DIY costume details all turned out well. I don't know why I always put off the costume making to the last minute and create extra stress for myself. Will I never learn? This year my goal is to NOT do the same procrastinating when it comes to making DIY gifts for friends and family. Now is definitely the time to get started before the craziness of Thanksgiving dinners and Christmas parties takes over the ... View the Post
Dresser Drawer Organization
If I asked for a raise of hands from all of you with messy dresser drawers, I can just imagine hands shooting up from all corners of the internet! And mine would be raised right there with you... or at least it would have been until last week. Isn't funny how sometimes those messy spots that drive us crazy are so simple to fix? If only I had taken the five minutes to organize my dresser drawers years ago, I would have save so much time searching for what we need {not to mention the ... View the Post
{style inspiration} Want the Look for Less? Knock it Off!
You know the saying "you're eyes are bigger than your stomach"? Well, when it comes to my decorating wish list, often my eyes are bigger than my budget. And I know I'm not the only one! It's so easy to walk through a store or flip through a catalog and fall in love with an item that you just can't afford! A good shopper knows that with a little patience and perseverance, you can often find a similar item for a much better price. I've always been proud of my skills when it comes to bargain ...

{five minute friday} Fall Decor Fast
There is no doubt that fall decor is hot right now! It's everywhere you look online and in stores. I love the cozy feel of the colors and textures of fall, but I don't want to spend a lot of time decorating for each new season. That's why I'm all about quick and easy seasonal decorating and craft projects that give you the most bang for your buck {or your minute, as it may be}. Last year, I did quite a few quick and easy fall decorating projects, so for today's Five Minute Friday, I decided ... View the Post
{diy with style} Let There be Porch Light
When it comes to our home, I obviously like to make things pretty, but two of our top priorities are always safety and cost-savings. Until recently, however, our front porch was a major fail in both of these areas! We are fortunate to have a small covered porch that shields our front door from the crazy Colorado weather, but the two outdoor lights on the front of the house (to either side of the porch) didn't provide any light near the front door. As a result, our porch was very dark at ... View the Post

{five minute friday} Pillow Talk: My Seasonal Pillow Swap
Swapping pillows can be one of the easiest ways to change up your decor! Whether you're just craving a new style, or wanting to add some seasonal decor, a quick change of the pillows on your couch and chairs can have a big impact! I usually wait until after Labor Day to start adding fall decor to the main floor of my house, but last night, after the kids went to bed, I was feeling motivated, so I went for it! I spent about an hour putting away some of our more summery decor and bring in some ... View the Post
{decorating with style} Gallery Wall Tips for Type A Personalities
My name is Angela, and I have Type A personality. {Now you say:} Hi, Angela! Phew, it feels good to get that off my chest! As you probably already know, I'm a pretty structured person, and I like to create detailed plans before I make any decorating or organizing decisions. When I designed Beckett's "big boy room," I created a to-scale rendering of the the argyle wall to decide on the exact color placements before I began painting. And when I organized our pantry, I drew up a ... View the Post
