I got a sewing machine for my birthday a few years ago, and I have big plans to create my own mini "sewing room" inside an armoire. This project hasn't made it to the top of my to do list just yet, but in the meantime, I'm excited to share the most adorable space packed with tons of smart sewing room organization ideas to inspire us all! This space proves that you truly don't need a large space or big budget to create a stylish and organized sewing room. I love social media because it allows ... 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
Time Management Tips for Busy Mompreneurs
Thank you to Office Depot for sponsoring this post. As always, all ideas and opinions are my own. Mompreneur was a term I hadn't even heard of before having kids, but through a series of life events I've found myself with this title and all of the perks and challenges that come with it. Balancing being a small-business-owner and work-from-home mom is a constant work in progress, but this year, as my business has grown, I've come up with some pretty good systems to keep me on track. ...

Designing a Comfortable, Modern Guest Room
Remember a couple of months ago when I showed you the very colorful design plans I was working on for a client's hip rooftop deck? Well that same client also had two extra bedrooms that he wanted to transform into stylish and comfortable spaces for welcoming guests. Today, I want to show you what we're working on in the larger of the two guest rooms, where we're even managing to squeeze in a little work space as well. When I toured the home for the first time, the room was literally a ... View the Post

Dual Home Office Design Plan – One Room Challenge: Week 1
Well, hello! It's been a minute since I've posted anything here on the blog!

You might remember that I've been talking for years about redoing our home office to make it a functional space for Scott and me to share. And it's FINALLY happening! Where have we been? After about a decade of non-stop home projects, ... View the Post
What You Get for Valentine’s Day When You’re Married to a Blogger…
I hope everyone had a fantastic Valentine's Day, or simply an enjoyable Saturday if Valentine's is not your jam! Scott and I were originally going to stay home with our boys, but after finding a last minute babysitter, we left the house with no real plans other than to spend a few kid-free hours together. It ended up being a crazy evening that finally culminated with us having dinner and exchanging gifts around 11 pm. When the babysitter arrived, we left the house with no clear destination. ...

How to Store Leftover Paint + Free Printable Paint Labels
Saying we have a lot of leftover 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 all the original wall colors, the trim, ceilings, and closet interior paints). Since that time we have repainted many of the rooms in the house, resulting in even more leftover paint. In the boys' bedroom alone, where we painted ombre stripes, we have five different colors of teal paint to ... View the Post

{organizing with style} Managing Kitchen Paper Piles with a Simple Filing System
One of the blogs that inspired me to start my own was iHeartOrganizing. This year, iHeart’s Jen is issuing a monthly organizing challenge, and February is focused on the kitchen. While I certainly need to give my pantry a major overhaul, I just knew I wouldn’t be able to complete that project this month - and fortunately in the meantime it’s behind a closed door. So I instead decide to participate in Jen’s challenge by tackling a smaller problem, but one that’s out in the open - our ... View the Post
