Well, hello! It's been a minute since I've posted anything here on the blog! The last project I posted was our basement bathroom makeover at the end of 2021, and, well... that was the last project we finished around the house. But that's about to change! You might remember that I've been talking for years about redoing our home office to make it a functional space for Scott and me to share. And it's FINALLY happening! Where have we been? After about a decade of non-stop home projects, ... View the Post

Closet Doors & Paint – One Room Challenge: Week 4
The floor drama that I told you about last week took some extra time and slowed us down a bit, but we quickly got back on track and checked two more big items off of the home office to-do list. As a reminder- here's where we left off last week... When we first moved into our house, the home office (which is actually just a basement bedroom) had bypass / sliding closet doors. Here's a picture from move-in day back in 2008 when the room was still empty. In the fall of 2019, when I was ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 2 – You Spin Me Right Round, Baby Right Round…
Welcome to Week 2 of the One Room Challenge! I'm popping in with an update to show you what we've accomplished this week! But first, let me take a minute to catch you up on the plan. For this round of the ORC, I'm taking on the smallest room I've ever decorated - the former storage space under the stairs in our basement. We are converting this 12.5' x 3' space into a rockin' playroom for our boys. You can read in the Week 1 post why this project is so special to me. Here's the space ... View the Post
DIY Dollhouse Makeover
There are those presents that the kids lose interest in right away (womp womp), and others that are still favorites years later (parenting WIN!). A few years ago, I did a last minute DIY dollhouse makeover for my boys, transforming an off-the-shelf dollhouse into a mini-me version of our own home, and years later, the boys (now 4.5 and almost 6) still play with it all the time and show it to everyone who comes over! When we were little, my mom created several dollhouses for my sister and me. ... View the Post
Five Step Quick Cleaning Routine
That moment when the phone rings with friends asking if they can stop by, and you look around the house wondering how much you can clean up in the next 30 minutes before they arrive. Please tell me I'm not the only one this has happened to?! I always do better when I have a plan, so I thought I'd embrace the idea of spring cleaning this year by coming up with a simple game plan that I can use throughout the year to whip the house into shape quickly. With young kids and a new puppy in the ... View the Post

{organizing with style} 10 Steps to Get Organized and STAY ORGANIZED
On Monday, I shared an ambitious list of decorating and organizing projects that I hope to accomplish in 2015. Among the projects on the list are numerous areas of our home that I've organized {and reorganized} in the past, but that need attention again because they just aren't working for us. So before I tackle these spaces yet again, I decided to take a step back and figure out why some of our spaces stay so well organized while others continue to be problem spots. After taking the time to ... 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. That almost never happens!! Usually I have to reevaluate every so often and tweak the system to better suit our changing needs. 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} 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
Color Coded Nail Polish Drawer
With spring official here, I am itching for warmer weather - mostly because I love wearing sandals and flip flops! Although I don't paint my fingernails all that often (something I'd like to change) - I ALWAYS have my toenails painted and I can't wait to start sporting some spring colors! So to get ready for the warmer weather that will hopefully be headed our way soon {but not soon enough since the forecast calls for snow tomorrow}, I decided to organize all of my nail polish. I have a ... View the Post
Small Utility Room Shelving Solution & the Best Way to Organize Paint Supplies
Having a fully finished basement adds a lot of livable square footage to our house, but it also means that there's almost no storage space. But you know I love a good challenge, so we worked our magic and managed to squeeze in some much needed utility room shelving and organized every available inch of space. HOW TO ADD SHELVING TO A SMALL UTILITY ROOM Utility rooms generally aren't the most storage friendly spaces, and the pipes running floor to ceiling in the middle of ours made it ... View the Post
