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

{five minute friday} Dress Up Your Christmas Card Display While You Wait for the Mail
I can hardly believe that Christmas card time is nearly upon us, but they are bound to start showing up in our mailboxes before we know it! I am definitely not one of those people who is so on top of it that I have cards already ordered {I am usually mailing them at the last minute}, but I do have some very organized friends and family members who always manage to have their cards arrive on the day after Thanksgiving. With that in mind today's Five Minute Friday is all making your Christmas ... View the Post
Coat Closet Rod Dividers
A few weeks ago we finished the organized makeover of our coat closet. It's went from a sad combination of overstuffed and underutilized, to a super functional space with room for the whole family, plus a lot of bonus storage. And now, thanks to one final, quick tweak, I can officially call this closet organizing project complete! Adding an adjustable second row of hanging space for the boys' coats - down at their level - has been a game changer. But there was one thing I failed ... 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
Pretty Painted Hangers
If you've been following along with my coat closet series, then you know that our brand new coat closet system was installed last week and I'm in the process of organizing all of our coats and winter gear. I believe strongly in the idea that making an organized space pretty motivates you to keep it organized, so I bet you won't be surprised to learn that I've also been working on some pretty DIY projects for the new coat closet - like these cheerful painted hangers. Wood hangers make ... View the Post
Week 2 – Does Shopping Count as Progress?
This post is sponsored by Home Decorators Collection, but, as always, all opinions are completely my own. You can view my full disclosure policy here. Two weeks of the One Room Challenge have already come and gone, and what do I have to show for it?! If you walked into my master bedroom right now, you would think I'd accomplished nothing. But what I have been doing is a whole lot of shopping. So that counts as progress, right?! via My focus this week has been on identifying a new rug ... View the Post

Water Bottle Storage
Do you ever flinch as you open one of your kitchen cabinets because you expect something to come tumbling out at your face? That was me with the cabinet where we store our water bottles. Once upon a time, I had organized the cabinet using baskets. That worked well when my boys were using mostly sippy cups, but as we transitioned to water bottles that are bigger around that the sippy cups, they no longer fit in the baskets very well, and we ended up with a scary situation like this... I ... View the Post
{entertaining with style} A Simple Elmo Cake & Basic Cake Decorating Tips
I pride myself on being pretty well rounded when it comes to the world of arts and crafts, but if there is one thing that I know almost nothing about, it's cake decorating. I'm not proud of this, especially considering that when I was little my mom was a professional cake decorator and taught cake decorating classes. Now that I have kids, I want to be able to create fun cakes for them like my mom did for my sister and I when we were little. So this year I asked my mom to help me create a simple ... View the Post
DIY Sheet Music Feature Wall + Free Printable Song Lyrics Posters
Remember that rock & roll themed playroom that I created for my boys in the former storage space under our basement stairs?! I hope you do, because it's one of my favorite spaces! We covered the ceiling in records, so when you stand at the door looking into the playroom, you see 45s as far as the eye can see - which is a pretty cool view {if I do say so myself}. But my favorite is actually the one you get if you walk into the playroom and look up above the door! That's where you see the ... View the Post
{seasonal style} Spring Home Tour
Welcome friends! It's Spring Home Tour day, and I'm joining a super talented group of bloggers, hosted by Carrie from Lovely, Etc., to show you how we add brighten up our homes for the season. You'll find links to each and every tour at the end of this post, with inspiration for every style.

{diy with style} Curb Appeal Dreaming…
Our urban neighborhood has lots of perks, like being within walking distance of great restaurants, shops, and even the most charming little library. But one thing you don't get in the city is a big yard. I'm not complaining. I wouldn't trade our location for anything. But we really need to make the most of our limited outdoor space! Right now, our front landscaping leaves a bit to be desired. I'm determined to change that this year, and I'm partnering with Roundup® For Lawns to make that a ... View the Post
