The school year is right around the corner, which means the end of those long, relaxed summer days, but it also provides a great opportunity for a fresh start. Creating some simple organizing systems for back to school can help you get back into a good routine, and can keep you on track throughout the year.

So here you have it, all the painting wisdom I have picked up {largely through trial and error} over the course of many DIY projects! These tips and tricks ... View the Post
One-Stop Shopping Holiday Gift Guide
Thank you to Office Depot for sponsoring this post. When I was a kid, I counted down to the holidays and time seemed to move so slowly it felt like we'd never get to winter break. As an adult, between running a business and parenting, it feels like I blink and the holidays have come and gone. This year, I'm trying hard to slow down and simplify a bit so that I can really enjoy the season and create lots of memories with my own kids. It's easy to get overwhelmed by the holiday ...

Under Bathroom Sink Organization Ideas for Small Powder Room Cabinets
I like the style of the floating cabinet in our powder room, but it's very limited on actual storage space. I've had a hard time finding an under bathroom sink organizer that would fit around the pipes in this tiny cabinet. Over the years, I purchased a few options - but each time I broke my own cardinal rule and didn't measure first, so not surprisingly, none of them fit. As a result, the cabinet ended up looking like this for far too long... I know I'm not the only one with a very ... View the Post

How to Organize Gift Wrap In a Closet
Confession time! I am a gift wrap hoarder! I've never met a pretty roll of wrapping paper that I didn't like {especially if it's on sale}, and I keep every gift bag that comes into our house for future reuse. Those adorable gift tags in the Target dollar section get me every time, I can't pass up the giant bags of bows that are always on sale for 75% off after the holidays, and you'll even find me refolding tissue paper if it's not too wrinkled to use again. But what is a gift wrap loving ... View the Post

DIY Dollhouse Makeover: Make an Off-the-Shelf Dollhouse Look Like Your House
When we were little, my mom created several dollhouses for my sister and me. She bought them unfinished, and then meticulously decorated and furnished them, using real carpet, tile, and linoleum remnants on the floors, and using fabric to create wallpaper for the walls. Those dollhouses were our prized possessions and I always envisioned creating a similar dollhouse for my own daughter someday. Since I have two sons, I kind of assumed that there wouldn't be any dollhouses in my future, so how ... View the Post
