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 ... [ 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 ]
Wooden Caddy Building Plans – Unicorn Spit
YOU GUYS are so stinking sweet and awesome about my Lyme Disease diagnosis, and sure know how to make a girl feel loved. I’m SO happy to report that the past few days have been amazing, and I’ve almost felt 100%. (I hope I didn’t just jinx it!) You better believe I made the most of it. It’s so weird not knowing which days will be good and bad, and makes me want to have my ducks in a row every ... [ Read More ]
Sentimental Keepsakes for Babies First Year
I just might be sentimental to a fault, but it’s just part of who I am. I love to document everything, keep items that are meaningful, and do so in the most organized way possible. Compulsive organizing might be a fault of mine too. I may need to see a therapist. Looking back over Cypress’ first year of life, I’m SO glad I took the time each week to take her picture in the same spot. It’s so ... [ Read More ]
Rotating Craft Caddy
I don’t know about your part of the world, but here in Iowa, the weather has been amahhh-zing. It could not be more beautiful! Waking up to the birds chirping and a slight breeze blowing in the window? Let’s just say that magical springtime feeling (paired with a cup of black coffee) is just the thing I need to give me a little boost in the morning. Some days, I’m even inspired to actually do my ... [ Read More ]
Make these Wooden Spools {using a Lathe!}
My craft room pretty much always looks like a bomb went off inside. But if you love lace, glitter, fabric, washi tape, and paint… well then it wouldn’t probably hate my beautiful mess. But on occasion, I get a wild hair and decide to organize a little corner. Today’s victim? LACE. I have a TON of lace. Like… A TON. I find it all the time at garage sales for pocket change. And my ... [ Read More ]
Vertical Kitchen Organization
A couple weeks ago when I posted the reveal of our Rolling Kitchen Island / Microwave Cart, several of you inquired about the hanging wooden canisters on the wall in the photo. I got the idea to try this after seeing something similar on A Beautiful Mess, and I was going back and forth about whether to do a tutorial or not since theirs is wholly awesome by itself. But since I did some ... [ Read More ]
