I hope you haven't hit leather overload yet, because I have one last leather project to share with you today for Five Minute Friday. I've heard from many of you that are now planning to add some leather belt drawer pulls to your dresser, but for those who love to the look but don't want to go as far as adding belts to your furniture...this post is for you! You all know that I love a good label and I'm always looking for new ways to make labels pretty, and this might just be my favorite label ... View the Post

{organizing with style} Floor Plans That Make You Go Hmmm…
I'm flashing back to the early '90's with that C+C Music Factory reference, but it's the best way I can describe today's topic. I think we've all experienced those moments - when house hunting or living in our own homes - where you ask yourself what the architect and builder were thinking when they planned the space. We certainly wondered that quite a few times when we toured our {now} home for the first time and were considering making an offer. Why do those linen closet doors open into ... View the Post
Dry Erase Memo Board + Free Laundry Symbols Printable Poster
When I redesigned our laundry closet, my goal was to not only make it pettier and better organized, but to also make it easier to ensure that our clothes always come out looking their best. I had seen lots of cute laundry symbols posters online, but what I really needed was a memo board to keep track of notes about special washing instructions... and I got the best of both worlds by creating my own. And now I'm giving it to you as a free printable, in your choice of colors! Laundry is ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Fluff & Fold: Laundry Room Week 5 Update
We are in the home stretch now! Only one more week left until the big reveal of our laundry room and linen closet makeover, which really means we have just a few days to finish everything up in order to allow time to photograph and prepare the reveal post. This is nail biting time, my friends! Will it all get done? I'm feeling optimistic, but there are still a couple projects that I have yet to work out the logistics of, so we'll see! But we did manage to accomplish a lot this week, so ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Laundry List: Week 2 Update
The first week of the One Room Challenge has already come and gone, so it's time to check in on the laundry and linen closet makeover. Last week I showed you the concept and design plans, and this week I want to talk about the specifics, including what was working and what wasn't in the former space, and what's on the to do list. But first, you probably want a progress update. Let's see...I caught up on about 6 loads of laundry. {Nothing like having to disconnect the washer ... View the Post
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
4 Tips for Organizing Bathroom Drawers
I organized our master bathroom drawers shortly after we moved into our house six years ago, and I must have done something right, because the drawers are just as organized today as they were on day one. That almost never happens!! Usually I have to reevaluate every so often and tweak the system to better suit our changing needs. But somehow I managed to get our bathroom drawers right on the first try! Obviously, what's right for us won’t necessarily be right for you, but I can share a few ... 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
{organizing with style} Tips for Proper Paint Storage, Disposal, and Recycling
We recently completed Project Paint Storage at our house, which included transferring all of our latex paint into plastic, screw-top canisters with labels, creating a customized paint deck, completing paint reference charts, compiling a kit to make organizing new paint quick and easy in the future, and finally organizing and storing all of our other painting supplies in our utility room. During the course of this project, we did a lot of research regarding ... View the Post
How to Properly Store, Dispose Of, and Recycle Paint and Paint Cans
As a serial DIYer, I'm always repainting the walls in our house, and painting just about everything else in sight with spray paint. That leaves us with a lot of leftover paint and, in time, a lot of empty paint cans. We have a very small utility room and a detached, unheated garage, so I had a lot of questions about how and where I could safely store my leftover paint, and how to properly dispose of paint and paint cans. I did a lot of research regarding both paint storage and disposal options, ... View the Post
How to Make a Family Fire Safety Plan + Free Printable
Thank you First Alert for sponsoring this post. October is Fire Prevention Month - practice safety in numbers to ensure your family’s super prepared too! I'm pretty sure I never slept as a kid. Instead, I laid in bed at night worrying. I worried about a lot of things, but what to do if there was a fire was a frequent source of my insomnia. When I would finally fall asleep, I'd often have dreams about fire. I don't know why this was so often on my mind because at the time I'd never even known ... View the Post
{featured} DIY Laundry Countertop & Shelving for Under $65
Hi friends! I am blogging over at Pretty Well Organized this morning, sharing all of the DIY details on how we created a countertop and shelving in our laundry room for under $65! When we first moved in to our home, I really wanted to install a Formica countertop in our laundry closet with cabinets above, but with all of the other new expenses - including the cost of a brand new washer and dryer - there just wasn't any extra money in the budget. Nonetheless, I still needed to find a way to ... View the Post
