The 2015 version of this calendar is available for download now! Hello 2014! I'm sorry that I've been MIA since Christmas, but I enjoyed a lot of wonderful family time and I hope you all did as well. {Take a look at my Instagram feed if you'd like to see a little of how we celebrated.} But even while I was away from the blog, I was busy, busy, busy. We celebrated Beckett's second birthday yesterday, and I'm madly preparing for his Sesame Street themed birthday party this Saturday {details ... View the Post

Be Prepared with a Winter Car Kit
I feel like the theme of this year has been finding simple solutions to problems we've been struggling with for far too long. You know - those solutions that make you say, if only I'd had this or done this years ago, I would have saved myself so much time or frustration. Today I'm talking about some of our former winter weather struggles, and how I've tackled them by creating an organized Winter Car Kit, complete with a major time-saver from sponsor FrostGuard®. Last fall, we finally got our ... View the Post
Five Minute Friday!
TGIF! I have a big announcement today that I am very excited about! So without further ado, let me introduce you to a new weekly feature on the blog that I am calling Five Minute Friday! I am always working on big projects around our house, whether they be decorating a room or organizing an entire closet. At the same time, however, there are just as many little projects that get done while my kids are eating lunch or while I'm chatting on the phone, and often times I struggle with whether those ...

{my style} A Few of My Favorite Things: Maps
Today is my birthday, so it seems like a good day to kick off a new series all about my favorite things! When I started to make a list of some of the things I love most, I was surprised to realize how many of them have remained unchanged since I was young, and my obsession with maps is no exception. I've always had the travel bug! In fact, I had the travel bug long before I ever traveled anywhere, really. My bucket list is made up almost exclusively of exotic locations I want to visit, and ...

Polka Dot Tea Towels
Hi everyone! I hope your long weekend is off to a great start! I know you are all busy spending time with family and friends, barbecuing, and getting ready to enjoy some fireworks, but since it's Friday, I wanted to pop in quickly with a bright and cheery five minute project that's perfect for summer! I'm a sucker for polka dots, so as soon I saw these adorable {and easy} tea towels that One Krieger Chick created, I immediately asked her if I could feature them for Five Minute Friday! This ...

{featured} Organizing with IKEA Centennial: Join Me on Saturday for a How To Seminar
You all know that I'm a huge fan of IKEA, so imagine my excitement when IKEA Centennial asked me to lead a How To seminar during the IKEA FAMILY Appreciation Day this coming Saturday, June 27th!! In the four years since IKEA Centennial opened in the suburbs south of Denver, I've become a regular there. I love both the affordability and versatility of their products, and I've managed to incorporate them throughout both my decor and my organizing. This Saturday at 2 pm in the IKEA ... View the Post
{decorating with style} Client Family Room Makeover Plans
This post is sponsored by Carpet One Floor & Home® I've been working on a few different clients projects lately - some decor and some organization - and I'm having the time of my life. I just love helping someone take a room or closet that isn't working well for them and transforming it into a space that they can be proud of and that improves the way they live in their home. And of course, just like in all the projects I tackle in my own home, finding the right balance of style and ... View the Post

Interchangeable Beaded Watch Bands Make a Quick Gift
I was shopping at JoAnn Fabric a while back... or, more accurately, I was browsing JoAnn walking up and down every aisle. Anyway, I came across a display of watch faces and coordinating beaded watch bands. They were cute, but none of the watch band options really fit my style. I was about to walk away empty handed, but then I saw it... a black and white stripes that remind me of Kate Spade, and a half price sign! How could I not buy a black and white striped watch face for only $10?! But I ... View the Post

{planning} 2015 List Making: Decorating and Organizing Plans for the New Year
Are you a list maker? I am! I use the Reminders app on my iPhone to make lists for everything in my life, from shopping lists and general to dos, to lists of future projects and plans for each room of our home. We spent last week enjoying lots of family time in the mountains, and on the way home we got stuck in traffic. Rather than being frustrated by the delay, Scott and I used the time {while the kids gloriously slept in the backseat} to review our project lists for each room of our house - ... View the Post
