Spring is here! The season of perpetual organizational hope. If you’re like me, it starts with some innocent closet rummaging. Then, internal promises are made to declutter, revamp and live like those minimalist folks on Instagram. You know, the ones moving into Airstreams with their family of six, where the bathroom is basically in the kitchen.

Then comes the reality check and the realization that you do in fact appreciate a wide line of demarcation between kitchen and bath. Yeah, tiny house living probably isn’t for us. Or perhaps you’ve come to terms with the fact that you’re more of a stockist, like me. You want plenty of the essentials and places to keep them on hand. Or you simply never want to find yourself toilet paperless at two a.m. Fair. I’m all about keeping the expectation bar knee high.

DIY Gold + Marble Modern Cubby Makeover

By

Thanks to Little Partners for sending these cubbies my way. This DIY Gold + Marble Modern Cubby Makeover is quick, easy and looks great!

I love our mid-century modern home, but it suffers from a serious lack of storage. And the intersection of young kids and lack of storage is called chaos. I found these cute cubbies and immediately fell in love with them. But of course I wanted to add my own twist. Gold hardware, carrera marble looking accents and a geometric planter gave this cute children’s storage piece a unique, modern mini-me look. With a few small adjustments I had a modern cubby makeover.

Kayla has a new room! A bedroom makeover for Kayla has been at the top of my to do list for quite some time. At 9, she’s on her way to the tween Iife, so I wanted to give her something slightly sophisticated and filled with fun.

It goes without saying, that nearly all of my home projects have been on hold this past year. With time to reflect on what my priorities are for myself and our family, I kept coming back to the same two things. Making our home comfortable for everyone and spending quality time together in and around it. [Read more…]

Kids + Guest Bathroom Update on a Budget

By

Tracking PixelI did a bathroom renovation on a budget several years ago and just made an easy, bathroom update on a budget for summer with Lowe’s. Thanks to Lowe’s for sponsoring this post.

We’ve officially hit the three year mark on the guest bathroom we renovated on a budget. It has survived Kayla’s bathroom science experiments and is currently being put to the test with Blake’s potty training. With me in the hospital quite a bit, we’ve had lots of family helping out. So while I was feeling good, I wanted to do a few simple updates.

I Have Receipts – DIY Receipts Envelope

By

It is no secret that I love myself a little DIY project. To me, every project is an opportunity to learn something new, take ownership of the process and feel pride in the finished product. Taking the time to be creative exercises the innovative muscles in my brain, creating a creativity snowball effect. It also gives a much needed break to the ones that deal with email correspondence and spreadsheets.

Every January I start a new file to store financial papers I collect throughout the year for business expenses. Receipts, contracts, check stubs and 1099’s. A couple of times a week, I gather these papers together from my desk, handbag and kitchen counter and stash them away for tax time. So it felt all too appropriate to do a little DIY project and customize this stylish envelope with the cheeky phrase ” I have receipts.”
