It seems like kids can find a way to make just about anything dangerous! Am I right?! Deciding what to child proof, and what not to, in your house is challenging, but the ultimate goal is to strike a good balance for your family somewhere between "bubble wrap all the things" and "fingers crossed they survive."

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

Shortly after returning home I picked up a gorgeous blue 9-photo frame on clearance at Pottery Barn and filled it full of my favorite Australia photos to hang in ... View the Post
