Valentine's Gift Idea - Printable Dry Erase Love Note

I Love You Because… Dry Erase Love Note Printable

I love my husband for a million big reasons and a million small reasons.  I constantly tell him that I love him, but I don't always tell him the specific things that I love about him. So, for Valentine's Day, I wanted to find a way to tell him all of the things that make him so special to me, and what better way than to leave him a love note every day?! This ever-changing love note is a Pinterest inspired project. I designed and framed the "I Love You Because..." print, and placed it ... View the Post

How to Hang Patio String Lights

Raise your hand if you love the look of string lights... Yeah, me too!! Every time we would eat on a restaurant patio with the glow of string lights overhead or stroll through Denver's Larimer Square, I would dream about hanging patio string lights over our backyard!   But if we were going to do it, I wanted to do it right - with commercial grade light strands and guide wires. The installation process seemed very intimidating to us, and we weren't sure where to begin, so we finally enlisted the ... View the Post

{outdoor style} 6 Favorite Lawn Games for Young Kids

Spring can be pretty fickle in Denver... it swings between 70s and snow, with rain and hail mixed in between. As a result, we often prograsstinate on getting the yard ready for the season. But this spring, I've partnered with Roundup® For Lawns, and I'm telling the dandelions to "weed 'em and reap." As my boys are getting older, they want to spend more and more time outside, and they are starting to really enjoy playing lawn games. Their enthusiasm has me mowtivated to get the lawn looking good ... View the Post

{five minute friday} Copper Pipe Shelves

TGIF, friends! I feel like I am still playing catch up after spending last weekend at the Haven Conference in Atlanta, so for today's Five Minute Friday I want to feature a quick but awesome project from Delineate Your Dwelling that caught my eye a while back. I always love all of Amy's projects. She has such a creative way of looking at the world, and these cooper shelves are a perfect example of that. I was thrilled that she agreed to let me share them with you, and I hope you'll take ... View the Post

{mom’s style} Rustic Chic Powder Room

If you missed the announcement about the launch of my new feature called {mom's style}, hop on over here for a quick introduction to my awesome mother! As I mentioned last Friday, we spent our Labor Day weekend in beautiful Breckenridge, Colorado.  I raved about why Breckenridge is one of my favorite places, and it turns out I'm not the only one who feels that way since just this week Forbes named Breckenridge in the top 5 on their list of America's Prettiest Towns.  Two ...

{diy with style} A Smart Front Door Makeover

I don't normally get that excited about tech-y stuff ... that's more my husband's territory. But a few weeks ago we gave our front doors a high tech makeover that I'm just over the moon about because it's already making our lives easier, our home safer, and dang if our doors don't look much prettier in the process! I am so grateful to Schlage® for sponsoring this post, but as always, all ideas and opinions are my own. As I'm sure many of you have experienced, life with preschoolers ... View the Post

Keeping Track of Coupons & Gift Cards

I pride myself on generally being pretty organized and having a designated place for things, but there can be a big difference between "organized" and "functional."  This was the case with the way I had been “organizing” all of my coupons and gift cards. I had an expandable file organizer in one of the kitchen cabinets where I had been storing restaurant menus and loose recipes, as well as coupons and gift cards. For a while now I’ve been needing to revamp this filing system, so I’ve ... View the Post

{diy with style} Getting Playful with a New Toilet Lever

Who's a fan of Shark Week?!  My husband definitely is, and I have a sneaking suspicion that in a couple of years our sons will be as well.  We were watching sharks around the clock in our house a couple of weeks ago, and since this year's Shark Week coincided closely with my husband's birthday, I decided to make his birthday shark themed. I started seeing a lot of sharkey decor popping up all over the internet, but I couldn't see myself hanging shark artwork in our living room, or ... View the Post

Graphic Glam Master Bathroom Makeover

I recently read a quote from interior designer Ken Fulk that said, "Design should inspire and make you smile, and should never be a bore." Just six short weeks ago our master bathroom was definitely a bore, but now it's so graphic, and glam, and just plain pretty, that I can't stop smiling from ear to ear. During the course of the One Room Challenge, our bathroom has gone from the most ignored room in the house, to my very favorite room! I'm so excited to finally be able to share it with ...

{five minute friday} Tick Tock: A Chalk Wall Clock

I rely on the cell phone in my pocket to know what time it is, completely ignoring all the clocks in our house most of the time. My boys on the other hand are fascinated by clocks - and not the digital ones on the appliances, but the real ones!  So while they were at preschool the other day, I added a quick and easy clock to their chalkboard wall in the kitchen. They spotted it the second we came through the door after school, and man were they excited! A while back, I ... View the Post
