I've always loved daylight savings, despite losing an hour of sleep. Maybe it's the night owl in me talking, but I'm a fan of the extra light in the evenings to enjoy time as a family and to get my DIY projects done. But as a parent, the transition can be a bit rough! How do you convince young kids that it's bedtime when it's still light outside? And how do you get them up and moving for school in the morning when it's still dark in their room? With the time change coming this weekend, I ... View the Post

Here We Go Again…Kitchen Edition
There hasn't been much happening on the blog the last few weeks (blame the new puppy!), but it's like with kids... when they are quiet you need to worry about what they're getting up to. And while it's been quiet on the blog I've come up with the crazy, last minute idea to jump into the One Room Challenge again this spring. If you've been reading the blog for a while now, you're probably pretty familiar with the One Room Challenge, which I've participated in a whopping seven times before ... View the Post
{seasonal style} 10 Non-Traditional Fall Color Palettes For Every Home
I love autumn - sweaters and jackets, crisp air, farmers markets and pumpkin patches, and of course, fall leaves! But in Denver, the season never lasts as long as I want it to. It seems like just as the leaves are changing we get an early snow and the branches are stripped bare. This year I've decided to make the most of autumn in Denver by bringing the season inside, as well. In the past, I haven't really decorated for fall. When I was growing up, my mom always talked about wanting a ... View the Post

One week and counting to the end of the One Room Challenge and we're in the home stretch now.

Our Plans for the Ultimate Game ... View the Post
Making the Kids’ Room Safer and More Fun With Onelink Safe & Sound
Thank you First Alert Onelink for sponsoring this post. Onelink Safe & Sound - Meet Your Family’s New Best Friend. #ONELINKSTORY Last summer, we started adding some smart home features to our house, including keyless locks, light bulbs we can control with our phones, and even a smart garage door opener. I love the convenience each of these adds to our lives, but more than that, I love the ways in which they make our home a safer place for our family. Recently we added one more smart home ...

Welcome to The Creative Circle link party - a place to share and find inspiration for your home! How is 2016 treating you so far? I know most of us start the year with lots of goals and plans, and I hope that you're off to a good start.

Washi Tape Shelf Detail
First of all, thank you guys all so much for all the love and kind words on my One Room Challenge Laundry & Linen Closet Reveal yesterday! It's always such a great feeling to successfully reach the end of the challenge, but then it take a few days to mentally recover. I blame that for the reason that today's Five Minute Friday post is coming tonight rather than this morning like I intended. But nonetheless, I wanted to show you one of the quick and easy projects that really upped the style ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 4: Knock Off Art & TV Gallery Wall Inspiration
Finally! Finally a week where I feel like I can see real progress and I'm excited to write my One Room Challenge update! Nonetheless, the chaos in our master bedroom {which I referred to last week as the "Storm Before the Calm"} remains. In fact, the chaos increased when we had to move all of the furniture to the center of the room in order to paint, but hubby and I have temporarily relocated to the guest room and having a restful place to sleep has improved my perspective. This week, my ... View the Post

Valentine’s Day Mini-Home Tour
I always dread taking down the Christmas decorations...not just because it's a whole lot less fun than putting them up, but also because the house always feels a bit uninspired when the festive decor comes down. I blame it on winter. It's cold and dreary outside, and it affects the mood inside as well. I never thought I'd decorate for holidays like Valentine's Day, but in the past couple of years I've discovered that this lovey-dovey holiday is actually perfect excuse to start bringing ...

Mann Residence
24" x 24" picture frames (matted to 11"x14") FAMILY ROOMYou had mentioned wanting a new side table by the couch, and a new rug in front of the chairs by the kitchen. I like these acrylic nesting tables because they don't take up any visual space. You can keep the tables together most of the time,but can separate them out if you need more table space when entertaining. The rug is in the same color tones as your current rug, but a bit more graphic. The grays in the rug would look good with the ... View the Post
