{organizing with style} Coat Closet Part 1: The Before, My Inspiration, and Deciding Whether to DIY

This post is sponsored by Closet Factory, but, as always, all opinions are my own. You can read my full disclosure policy here. A coat closet organizational makeover has been on my to do list for quite some time, and with winter officially here, there's no time like the present! I started working on the plans last month, in partnership with my friends at Closet Factory, and now that everything is starting to come together, I'm so eager to share it with you in a three part ...

{diy with style} The Dark Door Difference

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of FrogTape® for IZEA. As always, all opinions are 100% mine. You guys know I like things bold, so you probably won't be surprised that from the moment we moved into our home, I was itching to do something, anything, to liven up the very bland, off-white stucco box that is our detached garage.   When we started planning the first phase of our backyard makeover a number of years ago, we decided on a patio constructed of square ...

Door Knobs are a Girl’s Best Friend

You know how once you become familiar with something, you suddenly start seeing it or hearing about it everywhere you go? It's just that phenomenon that has had me be a bit obsessed with door knobs and door levers lately. The folks over at Schlage® are equally obsessed with door hardware, and I'm so grateful to them for sponsoring this post, but as always, all ideas and opinions are my own. Last month, we replaced our old front door lock and handle with a smarter and more stylish, keyless ... View the Post

{one room challenge} Garage Makeover Week 4: Let There Be Shelves

I swear that there is some kind of One Room Challenge time warp that occurs because Thursdays seem to come too quickly! It's already time for the week 4 progress update, which means only two weeks left to get the garage makeover completely finished. Getting the "stuff" back in shouldn't be a problem, but it's yet to be seen if I'll be able to get all of the fun and creative projects done.  That's a problem for tomorrow though... today let's celebrate what got done this past week. Be ... View the Post

{travel} 13 Tips for Traveling with an Infant for the First Time

A few weeks ago we flew to Tucson for a family wedding. This was our first time flying with Cooper, and he handled it like a champ! We flew with Beckett for the first time when he was about two months old, and had a successful flight with him as well, but we did learn a few lessons from that trip that made traveling with four month old Cooper even more stress-free. Having taken two successful first plane trips with each of our boys by no means makes me a travel expert, but nonetheless I thought ... View the Post

Apartment Style Three Ways, Without Buying Furniture

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of CORT. All opinions are 100% mine. My husband is a real estate appraiser specializing in commercial properties, so he spends a lot of time touring and inspecting apartment communities. When he visits new, or newly renovated, properties, he often snaps pictures of unique design and decorating ideas that he thinks I'll like {yep, he's a keeper}. Recently he picked up a CORT Furniture Rental catalog in the lobby an apartment and ... View the Post

{seasonal style} Hello Spring Home Tour

It's been feeling like spring in Denver for about a month now... but winter is about to make its return with snow expected later this week. Even the weather outside remains unpredictable, I've fully committed to spring inside the house! Our home is pretty bright and bold year round, but spring colors are definitely my favorite, and I've been going a little crazy with flowers lately! I'm excited to be participating in the Hello Spring Home Tour blog home with 19 other super talented ... 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

{decorating with style} Quick and Easy Striped Bathroom Canisters

I'm currently working on a minor reorganization of bathroom drawers in preparation for my monthly contributor post over at Pretty Well Organized, but, as usually, one project leads to another. As I was lining my bathroom drawers with some pretty paper, I started looking at the glass canisters on my counter and thinking how they could use a little dressing up as well.  A little washi tape and five minutes later, now I have silver striped canisters! I like storing my cotton balls and ... View the Post

How to Clean a Chalkboard Wall to Get It Back to Black

Ever since we first painted the magnetic chalkboard wall in our kitchen, I have been on a mission to figure out how to get it clean.  I mean really clean... as in back to the way it looked when it was new. Back to black! The constant white/gray haze on the wall drove me crazy! Because our chalkboard wall reaches all the way to the ceiling, we never draw or write on the top of it, meaning that the wall isn't even consistently grey. Instead it is nice and clean on the top - and progressively ... View the Post
