I’m a sucker for unique and space-saving organization, so the idea of storing things vertically just makes sense! I’ve been thinking about different ideas for storing games, blocks and toys in our living room that would be inconspicuous yet allow the children to easily access them. And these storage baskets are what we came up with! After making this, I’m realizing that there are SO MANY ... [ Read More ]

How to Build DIY Floating Shelves
This past weekend, we were ‘refreshing’ and rearranging DIY floating shelves in our upstairs bathroom, and remembering how bleak and cave-like this area above the toilet once was. Remember this? *this post contains affiliate links* Adding chunky white DIY floating shelves above the toilet was a game changer for this small bathroom’s style AND function. I went back into our blog archives to find ... [ Read More ]
The Painting of the Potting Bench
I think we can all agree that color is good in moderation, tastefully balanced with neutrals and textures. Of course if your taste is ‘farmhouse’ you might gravitate toward neutrals more. Or if you love boho décor, you might be brave with vibrant color and patterns. There’s no right or wrong! So when it came time to make a choice about what color to paint our potting bench, I was ...

Potting Bench with Hidden Garbage Can Enclosure
Ya’ll, it’s been HOT where we live. Like Arizona-in-the-early-spring-hot. Like hotter than what we’re accustomed to in Iowa. But we survived the weekend, and lost a combined total of 3 meeeeeellion pounds in sweat, as a family. That’s a lie actually. But at least the sweat we produced was coupled with sunscreen and FUN. Nick and I designed a potting bench together to fit our needs. I wanted a lot ... [ Read More ]
Oversized Pegboard Shelving System
There’s just something about oversized pegboards that just GETS ME. Ever since being inspired by this version via Mandi @ Vintage Revivals, I’ve been subconsciously pondering where in our home I could clear off a wall for something this large. Sadly, the walls in our home are maxed out. But my bro and sis-in-law recently bought a new house and have lots of luscious blank wall space that has me ... [ Read More ]
ADD CLOSET SHELVING to any builder-grade closet!
Once upon a time, there was a unappreciated closet in the guest room. It housed my old prom dresses and random other nonsense. Since it was the guest room, we rarely went in there and it just didn’t matter. IT JUST DIDN’T. But then it did. It started to matter when our guest room became our twin girls’ room a couple years ago… …at which point this closet suddenly had to hold lots of pink and ... [ Read More ]
Chalkboard Wall Command Center – with Acrylic Calendar!
Greetings to you from the other side of the New Year! There’s just something refreshing and new-beginning-ish about the first few days of January. We’re all pumped to be better people and live healthier, more organized lives. You too? Since our kitchen also serves as our mudroom, there just isn’t an obvious spot to put a Command Center. And our kitchen NEEDS a command center. I’m very calendar ... [ Read More ]
Tips to stay ahead of the Cleaning Game
Here’s a fun-fact about yours-truly. I DESPISE CLEANING. Now before you go getting all judgy and assuming I’m a slob, I would like to proclaim that I am VERY organized and love to be tidy. Everything has a place! And I’m proud of all my organizational strategies! But having a ‘clutter-free’ house is a far cry from an ACTUAL CLEAN house. So recently, I started making a list of things that ... [ Read More ]
