Things are getting real, today! I'm talking about what it REALLY looks like to live with kids and all their toys! I hear from friends and readers alike that they don't believe that our house can really look like the pretty pictures on the blog all the time, because life with kids is messy. And you know what, that's absolutely true! My boys are just like all other kids...they leave a trail of toys and disaster everywhere they go. But thanks to some simple organization, I can take any room in ... View the Post

Five Ways to Get Your Home Organized With Cricut Joy
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. Cricut has long been established as the ultimate crafting tool! And while I get my craft on from time to time, I've always used my Cricut cutting machine primarily for organizing. While I love my Cricut Explore Air (and am coveting a Cricut Maker for it's ability to cut even more materials), the truth is that both machines are much more powerful than what I need for the majority of my projects. I love ... View the Post
How to Create a Custom Door Label with Cricut
A year after completing the makeover of our master bathroom, the barn door on our closet remains one of my favorite details of the space! Based on your comments, it seems to be one of your favorite features as well. Over time, a lot of you have asked me how we added the "Dressing Room" label to the barn door, so today I wanted to share the easy DIY tutorial. I created this custom door label using my Cricut electronic cutter, which is one of the most versatile and fun tools I own for decor, ... View the Post
A Toy Storage Solution That Can Grow With the Kids
The holidays are over and there are SO MANY new toys! It's a perfect time to purge and donate toys that kids have outgrown, and to come up with a new toy storage plan that will grow with the kids! There are a ton of toy organizer options out there, but to stand the test of time, you need to find a toy organizer that is flexible enough to change with the size, shape and quantity of the toys through the years. Around this time last year, I got a call from a friend who said her son's toys were ... View the Post
Organizing Kids Toys with Labels that Are Easy to Update
Raise your hand if you love to label ALL. THE. THINGS? Me too! Labeling is one of the most important steps in the process of creating an organized space, because it makes it easy for everyone in the family to find what they need, and makes it much easier to put everything away where it belongs. But not all labels are created equal. A label is only good if it's accurate, so it's important to make labels easy to update for those spots in the house where the contents are likely to change ...

How to Design a Shared Family Room and Playroom
Like many families, we spent much of our summer outdoors - exploring the mountains, walking to the park, and playing in the backyard. But now that fall is here and winter is right around the corner, we are spending much more of our family time indoors, specifically in our basement family room, which also serves as the kids playroom. Today I'm sharing my five of my best tips for creating a shared family room and playroom that is comfortable and works well for the whole family. I am ... View the Post

Creating an organized and pretty, happy home is what this blog is all about, and I firmly believe that those things all naturally go hand in hand.

Stylish Bathtub Toy Storage that Transforms for Guest Luxury
Bath time with a toddler is so much fun! At almost 15 months old, Beckett is now really starting to enjoy playing with toys in the tub, but with that comes the challenge of storing all those toys. There is a small bathroom right off of Beckett's nursery, but it only has a shower. That means that bath time occurs down the hall in the bathroom attached to our guest room. We have plenty of storage space in the bathroom cabinet, but the problem was that by the time the tub toys ... View the Post
Pretty Pantry Labels Three Ways + FREE PRINTABLE LABELS
Last week I shared my five steps for creating an organized and pretty pantry, and I gave you a tour of our pantry space. Over a year after first completing our pantry makeover, the space is functioning just as well today as it did on day one - and I believe we have the labels to thank for that! Without labels, our pantry would just be a sea of matching white bins. I would have a pretty good idea of what goes where, since I organized it to start with, but imagine my poor kids and husband! They ... View the Post
{organizing with style} Project Paint Storage and a Free Printable
To say we have a lot of latex paint might be an understatement! When we bought our home, the builder left us a touch up kit with 2 quarts of each color of paint used throughout the house (including the original wall colors, the trim, ceilings, and closet interior paints). Additionally, we have since repainted many of the rooms in the house, resulting in a lot more leftover paint (and in the case of the ombre stripes in the nursery we used five different colors). Until a few weeks ... View the Post
Fun Family Christmas Traditions
I wish we could enjoy the Christmas season with our family year round! Of course, logically, I realize that what makes it special is that it's just one month each year... but it's such a magical and wonderful time, especially with young kids! It was important to me that we start establishing holiday traditions with our boys from an early age, so that they would grow up with cherished memories of those traditions. I love hearing about other family's traditions, so today - as we officially start ... View the Post
