Last fall, when I decided to give the laundry closet a major makeover to make it brighter and more functional, I knew that meant the linen closet would need a makeover as well. The linen closet is adjacent to the laundry closet in our second floor hallway, and while each is accessed by its own set of doors, internally there is no division between the two spaces. But beyond just getting a new, coordinating look, this was the perfect excuse for me to finally achieve a more organized and ... View the Post

Glam White DIY Christmas Trees
A while back, my mom bought me a variety of unfinished paper mache and wood cutout Christmas trees from Hobby Lobby knowing that I would have fun figuring out a creative way to decorate them. I stalled and stalled and didn't do anything with these Christmas tree crafts for a couple of years - not because I didn't have any ideas, but because I had too many ideas and couldn't make a decision. Does anyone else have this same problem? I call it craft indecisiveness! Finally I realized that I ... View the Post
How to Organize a Small Reach-In Pantry
Do you drool over those gorgeous walk-in pantry organization photos in magazines and on Pinterest? Me too! The only problem is that I don't have a walk-in pantry to make gorgeous! But after living in a condo for years with no pantry at all, even a smallish reach-in pantry seemed like such a luxury when we moved in to our current home. It took me years to figure out how to organize the pantry to make the most of our space, but after some failed attempts, I've finally figured out how to create a ... View the Post
{seasonal style} Thrift Store Framed Becomes a Spooky Halloween Decoration
October seems to be flying by, but it's finally starting to feel like Halloween around our house! I unpacked my Mason Jar Jack O'Lanterns, my Peek-A-Boo Color Carved Pumpkins, and added cobwebs and candles everywhere. And I also created one new addition to our Halloween decor...a spooky, 3D framed skull! Remember that photo from last week of the three thrift store items that I received in the mail as part of the #SwapItLikeItsHot challenge? I showed you how I upcycled the clipboard and ...

IKEA HACK: 20 Ways to Organize With an Ikea Shoe Cabinet
I don't think I've ever met anyone who said they have too much storage in their home. Quite the opposite! No matter the size of your home, I am willing to bet you have at least a few problem items that are a constant source of clutter or that you just can't find a good place to store. We recently bought an IKEA shoe cabinet to organize the piles of shoes that are constantly piling up in our kitchen. But after assembling the cabinet for our entry way, it occurred to me that it could also ... View the Post
Organizing Cords & Cables
I've been working on several big organizing projects recently, one of which is organizing all a hall closet that houses, among other things, all of our small electronics - everything from cameras and video cameras, to iPods, iPads and portable speaker. And every one of these items comes with at least one, if not two or more, cords and cables. The closet organizing project is still a work in progress, but I did just complete one key component - taming all of those cords and cables! I'm sure ... View the Post
{organizing with style} Washi Tape Shelves
Last week I showed your our organized "baby elevator closet" (if you want to know why we call it that, you'll have to check out that post), and you may have noticed the colorful stripes on the front of each of the shelves. Washi tape! It's hard to believe that just a few months ago I had never used washi tape for anything, and now it makes its way in to nearly every project I do. I love my label maker, and it's always been my go to when I've needed to label ... View the Post
Letter Photo Display for Mother’s Day
Sometimes projects don't turn out as well as you envision them in your head, but then every once in a while a project turns out even better than you pictured it - and man is that exciting! That was the case with the wood letter photo displays I created for Mother's Day. The best part of this project is that it can be so easily personalized, and it's also fun and easy to get the kids involved! To create a very special gift for my boys' Nana, I let them paint the letters ... View the Post
How to Give Photos a Metallic Glow

This is one of my favorite projects, and it's super quick and easy, so today I'm bringing it back for Five Minute Friday! Let me show you how easy it is to give your photos a shiny, metallic glow.

{organizing with style} Utility Room Paint Supply Organization Reveal and a Printable
Over the course of the last week or so I have shared how we transferred all of latex paint into plastic, screw-top canisters with labels, how I created a customized paint deck, our paint reference charts, and my kit to make organizing new paint quick and easy in the future. The final step in Project Paint Organization was sorting and storing all of our other painting supplies. Last month, we found a way to add shelves into our tiny utility room, creating new space for storing our paint ... 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.

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} My Makeup Drawer
Is your makeup a mess? It doesn't have to be! Today I'm sharing a few simple tips for keeping makeup organized in a drawer. STEP 1 - SORT & PURGE The first step to organizing any drawer is to empty it out completely. Once everything is out on the counter, begin sorting your makeup. The categories I selected were eyes, lips and face. Once I had my makeup sorted, I began to purge anything that was too old or that I just don't use anymore. I am never sure how long to keep ...
