The countdown to Christmas is on, and we are filling our days with all of our favorite Christmas activities and traditions.

Which is why we books play an important role in one of our favorite family traditions!

{decorating with style} From Awkward Inset to Floating Photo Shelves
When we purchased our home, one of my first decorating challenges was figuring out what to do with the 5 inch deep inset in the corner of our living room. I originally tried tucking a console table in the nook, but it just looked awkward. So I sat and stared at the space for a while until it hit me - floating photo shelves! Five inches really isn't deep enough for much - but it turns out to be the perfect depth for tabletop picture frames. A family friend installed the shelves ... View the Post

Sure I keep up with friends and enjoy photos of their kids and ... View the Post
{seasonal style} A Little Halloween Spookiness
When I was a kid, my mom always decorated our house for every holiday, and it was so much fun! But as an adult, I found that the only holiday I really took the time to decorate for was Christmas - and even then I would only put out about half of my decorations. But now that I have kids, I am going to make a much more concerted effort to decorate for the major holidays to help them, and me, get into the spirit! I decided to start with one room of the house for Halloween - baby steps! ... View the Post

Christmas Home Tour 2016: Part 1
Happy Holidays, friends! Have you put up your tree yet? We started decorating for Christmas about a week ago, and I still have just a little more to do, but today I'm really excited to show you how I've decked the halls on our main floor - including the entry, living room, and kitchen/dining room - with touches of red.

How to Create Wall Words Using Cricut
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. This post also contains affiliate links. If you purchase something I recommend, you'll pay the same price, but I may receive a small commission. A few years ago, when asked to describe my home style in three words, I came up with MODERN.

{organizing with style} Tutorial for Creating Vinyl Labels for Bathtub Toy Storage
Thanks to all those who checked out my recent project to create stylish tub toy storage in our guest bathroom. As promised, I am back to give you the details on how I made the labels for the storage bins. These labels are made from adhesive-backed vinyl, which can be purchased at many craft stores as well as online. This is the same kind of vinyl that can be used to create wall quotes and other kinds of wall decals. It sticks well, but can easily and safely be removed at ... View the Post
{organizing with style} Matching Spice Jars & Ombre Spice Racks In the Pantry
They say time flies when you are having fun, so I must be having a lot of fun organizing our home! I am slowly working to get caught up blogging about projects I completed last year, and, looking at the date stamps on the photos of the spice racks we installed in the pantry, I realize that I've been enjoying this beauty of a project for well over six months now! #badblogger But I'm a glass half full kind of girl, so I'll put a positive spin on my tardiness in sharing this project... ...

DIY Play Tent With Roof Made From Upcycled Neckties
Boy Mom Madness continues, and today we are talking D.I.Y. for the B.O.Y. This is a topic I just love, and it's the perfect opportunity for me to share a tutorial that is almost a year overdue! When I designed my son Beckett's "big boy" room, I spent many weeks blogging about the DIY projects in the room {no less than 15 DIYs!}, until I feared that you must be getting sick of hearing about that room {because I was getting sick of writing about it}. I promised to return with the details of ... View the Post
Remove Wine Bottle Labels Without Tearing or Damaging
Do you ever get on a kick where you find yourself pinning a whole bunch of ideas for one type of project? I recently started pinning ideas for craft and DIY projects to upcycle wine bottles. One thing that every one of these projects has in common is that you have to remove the label before you can get started. Fortunately I have a super fast and easy method to remove labels from wine bottles {or any glass jar for that matter} that is totally mess free and leaves the labels perfectly in tact in ...
