{organizing with style} Get Ready for Back to School With These Kitchen Organizing Tips
The school year is right around the corner, which means the end of those long, relaxed summer days, but it also provides a great opportunity for a fresh start.

The kitchen is certainly the heart of the home, and, in our home, it is also school command central! In addition to packing lunches, we have a lot of “school stuff” to keep track of ... View the Post

{outdoor style} How to Get Your Dream Patio On a Budget
Last week, I shared a tour of our backyard transformation, along with some tips for turning your patio into a comfortable outdoor living room for the whole family. My number on piece of advice for creating your dream outdoor space is to shop the end of season clearance sales! The good news - those "end of season" sales are already in full swing even though it's only mid-summer. That means you can grab the patio furniture you've been dreaming of for a bargain right now, and still get ... View the Post
Organized Car Kit for Families On the Go
I've had good intentions to get our car organized, well, pretty much forever! But month after month {and year after year} it always got passed up on my to do list. Ironically, the other things that kept me too busy to organize the car often resulted in me spending most of my time in the car running from one "to do" list item to the next. This summer, my husband {who is an actor as one of his two careers} has been performing at a theater in the mountain town of Breckenridge. In order to be with ... View the Post

How to Weatherproof Art for the Outdoors
When I shared some photos of our backyard in the spring, you may have noticed that I hung a large, canvas photo on the exterior wall of our white stucco garage. For years, I had been wanting something decorative for this space to break up the sea of stucco, but I had never been able to find any outdoor art that I really liked. So this year, I created my own weatherproof, outdoor art, and today I've got the super easy, five minute tutorial for you. Watch this quick video tutorial, and ... View the Post
Our Annivesary: The Story of His Proposal
Hi friends! Today Scott and I are celebrating our 9th wedding anniversary, so in honor of that, I thought I'd take a little departure from the normal decor, DIY, and organizing talk to share the story of how he proposed. If grand gestures and lovey-dovey stories make you want to gag, feel free to avert your eyes now and come back tomorrow for another great Five Minute Friday DIY project. But if Hallmark Channel-worthy love stories are your jam, then read on! Scott and ... View the Post
Create an Organized Travel Binder + Free Printable Planning Pages
You all know I love to organize all the things! But did you know I also LOVE to travel? Now that you know, I bet it won't come as any surprise that I spend a lot of time planning and organizing our trips before we ever step out of the front door. If there is one thing that I have learned in all of our travels - especially our international travels - it's that it is inevitable that something will go wrong on any trip. It might be a lost bag, it might be a reservation snafu, it might be a ... View the Post
Linen Closet Organizing Hack
We've been spending a lot of time in Breckenridge this summer, and it's a beautiful place to be! We are very fortunate that my parent's have a house there, and it provides a great place to escape to cooler weather and relaxed days. But even when were are in Breckenridge on semi-vacation {both working remotely much of the time}, the day to day stuff still has to get done. Meals cooked, dishes cleaned, laundry washed. The other day, when I opened the linen closet to grab out the broom to ... View the Post
How to Paint Faster with a PaintStick EZ-Twist Roller
I used to hate painting bathrooms! There are so many nooks and crannies, and places that are really awkward to reach. If you've ever tried wedging a step ladder {unsteadily} into your bath tub, and then nearly tripped over the edge of the tub as you climb down to reload your paint roller, then you know just what I mean. Nonetheless, I was so eager to banish the beige in our master bathroom that I was willing to once again endure bathroom painting. But when my friends at HomeRight learned what I ... View the Post
Washi Tape Canisters Three Ways
I love fun and fast projects! There was a time when I used to think some of my quick project weren't worth sharing on the blog because they were too simple, but a couple of years ago I shared a super fast update I made to my bathroom canisters, and people went crazy for it! I think that was the first time I realized that everyone loves a quick and easy project. Duh! Of course you do! We don't always have a lot of free time, let alone a big budget, but we can all squeeze out five ... View the Post
