A few weeks ago I told you about a call I received from a college friend asking for help giving her master bedroom a new, more sophisticated look, and today I'm ecstatic to show you the dramatic transformation we achieved in the space despite keeping the room layout and most of the same furniture! In my two prior posts about this space, I shared a lot of information about the space and the design plans, so I won't rehash all of that here {since I know you really just want to see the pretty ...

{shopping for style} Adorable Gift Sets For Only $4
I can't walk into Target without stopping to scope out the latest offerings in the Dollar Spot. I always manage to find something I "need," but this weekend I hit the jackpot, and I had to share my Dollar Spot find with you! It seems like I'm helping to host a lot of wedding and baby showers these days, and one of the biggest challenges for me is finding prizes to give the winners of the games without spending a lot of money. I like to give gifts that are practical and useful, but also ... View the Post
What It’s Like to Cage Dive With Great White Sharks
Today I'm skipping my normal Five Minute Friday, and departing from my typical DIY and decor talk, to share something really fun with you guys in honor of Shark Week! Last fall, Scott and I took an incredible two week trip to South Africa. When we returned, I promised you some reports on that trip, but we are still working our way through the many thousands of photos we took on the trip so those reports have been very slow coming. But since this week is Shark Week on The Discovery Channel, it ... View the Post
Valentine’s Day Mini-Home Tour
I always dread taking down the Christmas decorations...not just because it's a whole lot less fun than putting them up, but also because the house always feels a bit uninspired when the festive decor comes down. I blame it on winter. It's cold and dreary outside, and it affects the mood inside as well. I never thought I'd decorate for holidays like Valentine's Day, but in the past couple of years I've discovered that this lovey-dovey holiday is actually perfect excuse to start bringing ...

All week long I am participating in Boy Mom Madness, a fun blogging event featuring 15 boy moms blogging about all things boy, with a new theme each day, leading up to a big link party and giveaway on Friday.

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
An Easy Way to File Recipe Clippings and Delivery Menus
Try as I might, magazines always manage to pile up around our house. But I just can't let go of them until I've had a chance to tear out any ideas I might want to save for later - especially recipes. So this morning, while the kids played, I dedicated an hour to flipping through a stack of magazines, tearing out all the recipes I want to try. As the I tossed all the recipe clippings into a pile, I realized today would be a perfect time to show you the simple filing system I use in the kitchen ... View the Post
Menswear Themed Boy’s Room
TODAY IS THE DAY! The day that I get to reveal Beckett's new big boy room! I said back in Week 1 that I work best under a deadline, and is that ever true.

If you are interested in the weekly update posts to see how it all got done, you can find those ... View the Post
{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
