This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. Cricut has long been established as the ultimate crafting tool! And while I get my craft on from time to time, I've always used my Cricut cutting machine primarily for organizing. While I love my Cricut Explore Air (and am coveting a Cricut Maker for it's ability to cut even more materials), the truth is that both machines are much more powerful than what I need for the majority of my projects. I love ... View the Post

How to Create a Custom Door Label with Cricut
A year after completing the makeover of our master bathroom, the barn door on our closet remains one of my favorite details of the space! Based on your comments, it seems to be one of your favorite features as well. Over time, a lot of you have asked me how we added the "Dressing Room" label to the barn door, so today I wanted to share the easy DIY tutorial. I created this custom door label using my Cricut electronic cutter, which is one of the most versatile and fun tools I own for decor, ... View the Post

{diy with style} My Top 3 Energy Saving Tips + A HUGE CONTEST
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Lennox® for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. Our utility company recently started sending a monthly report that not only graphs our own energy usage against prior periods, it also illustrates how our usage compares to the average use in our neighborhood. I learned that our natural gas usage is below average compared to others in our area, but our electricity usage is slightly above average. Of course, this got me thinking about easy ways ...

Organizing Kids Toys with Labels that Are Easy to Update
Raise your hand if you love to label ALL. THE. THINGS? Me too! Labeling is one of the most important steps in the process of creating an organized space, because it makes it easy for everyone in the family to find what they need, and makes it much easier to put everything away where it belongs. But not all labels are created equal. A label is only good if it's accurate, so it's important to make labels easy to update for those spots in the house where the contents are likely to change ...

Pretty Pantry Labels Three Ways + FREE PRINTABLE LABELS
Last week I shared my five steps for creating an organized and pretty pantry, and I gave you a tour of our pantry space. Over a year after first completing our pantry makeover, the space is functioning just as well today as it did on day one - and I believe we have the labels to thank for that! Without labels, our pantry would just be a sea of matching white bins. I would have a pretty good idea of what goes where, since I organized it to start with, but imagine my poor kids and husband! They ... View the Post

{organizing with style} Project Paint Storage and a Free Printable
To say we have a lot of latex paint might be an understatement! When we bought our home, the builder left us a touch up kit with 2 quarts of each color of paint used throughout the house (including the original wall colors, the trim, ceilings, and closet interior paints). Additionally, we have since repainted many of the rooms in the house, resulting in a lot more leftover paint (and in the case of the ombre stripes in the nursery we used five different colors). Until a few weeks ... View the Post

Pinch me! A few weeks ago I entered the Best DIY Project contest being hosted by the lovely Stacy Risenmay at Not JUST a Housewife. And would you believe that out of 275 entries, the menswear inspired bedroom that I designed for Beckett was selected by an impressive panel of guest judges as one of the TOP TEN!

What is everyone's favorite part of decorating and DIY shows on tv? The big reveal at the end of course! That makes today an exciting day on the blog, because it's reveal day!
