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

Retro Christmas Front Porch Decor
"Tiny tots, with their eyes all aglow"... I've always loved that line in Nat King Cole's The Christmas Song, and I'll admit that I'm a total sucker when it comes to fulfilling my kids' requests for Christmas decorations. A few years back, I bought two small Christmas trees for our front steps, and I usually hang a wreath on each door, but this year the kids asked for some colored lights and decorations for the trees, so I knew it was time to step up my porch decor game a bit. I teamed ... View the Post

{style inspiration} The Farm to Table Concept Meets Interior Design
Last fall, I had the opportunity to attend the HGTV Blogger Block Party in NYC where one of the guest speakers was Genevieve Gorder. I used to rush home from law school to watch Genevieve on Trading Spaces every afternoon wishing that I was studying interior design rather than contracts and torts, so it was a total full circle moment for me to meet her in my role as a design blogger! Genevieve's presentation focused on her trend predictions for 2016 and 2017, and today I wanted to give you ... View the Post

I love my label maker, and it's always been my go to when I've needed to label ... View the Post
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!
