It's been a while since I've shared a Five Minute Friday post, but this is a good one. If you've ever had the experience of wood drawers sticking and not sliding smoothly in an old piece of furniture, then you need to read on. This post contains some affiliate links. If you purchase something I recommend, you'll pay the same price, but I may receive a small commission. A couple of months ago, my mom mentioned to me an easy way to fix sticking wood drawers. I don't own any ... View the Post

{decorating with style} 18 Spring Pillows to Welcome the Season
Spring is officially here, and the evidence is everywhere...longer daylight hours, flowers beginning to bloom, buds appearing on the tree branches, and pink pillows on my couch. Swapping out pillows is one of the quickest and easiest ways to update your decor with the changing seasons. Last week I shared my Spring Home Tour, and I bet you'd never believe me if I said I used to be anti-pink and anti-flowers, because I've got an abundance of both going on - including the double whammy: pink ...

Framing Up Some Fashion Inspiration for the Closet
A lot of home design/DIY bloggers also blog about their fashion. Not me! I like clothes as much as the next girl, but I'm definitely not a trend setter. I am just happy if I catch on to a trend before it's already "so last season." I tend to get into a rut and don't try new things when it comes to fashion, and this is especially true when it comes to scarves. Last summer I showed you how I turned cabinet pulls into scarf hangers. Getting my scarfs out of a drawer and hanging up where I can see ... View the Post
{decorating with style} Christmas Home Tour: Part 2
Is anyone else dreaming of a white Christmas? What about an orange and white Christmas?! It's definitely not a traditional color combo for the holidays, but then again, I've never been accused of being traditional. Today I'm teaming up with some of my favorite modern and eclectic home decor bloggers for the Winter Eclectic Home Tour, hosted by Domicile 37. Last week, I gave you a peek at the red and teal decor on our main level, but for today's tour, I'm thrilled to show you how a color ... View the Post
An Easy Trick to Hide Lamp Cords
Yesterday I came across a photo slide show of the gorgeous DC home that the Obama's will be renting when the leave the White House. I was just sitting down to write this post when I got sidetracked looking at the photos of the stunning mansion in its glorious shades of white and gray, and I had to laugh when I got to the photo of the home's basement family room. For all its high-end style, my eye was immediately drawn to a bunch of cords under one of the tables. It truly is a universal ... View the Post
{decorating with style} A Big Boy Room Furniture Plan
Now that we've finally decided on a design concept for Beckett's new "big boy room" {Vintage Preppy Lounge}, I am eager to purchase the furniture and see the space start to come together. As I always do before buying any furniture for a room, I started by measuring the space and graphing it out in Photoshop so that I could play around with potential furniture layout options. Initially I had one vision for the room layout, and Scott had a very different idea of where the furniture should be ... View the Post
Quick Tips for an Organized Nightstand

Nightstands are a common culprit, but just a few simple tips and some quick organization can help you keep the necessities in reach without allowing your bedside table to became a catchall for clutter. CLEAR THE CLUTTER ON TOP Choosing a nightstand with interior ... View the Post
Pant Hangers to Display Kids’ Art
Today marks the conclusion of Boy Mom Madness, so it seems fitting that my Five Minute Friday project should also be for the boys. Beckett goes to preschool two days a week, and they do an art project every day. That's a lot of fabulous three-year old art that comes into our house! Right now I am keeping all of it in a bin, and I have ideas in mind for how I'll decide what the keep, and how to document it without saving every piece of paper. But those are stories for other days. Today, I'm ... View the Post

Reclaimed Wood Photo Clipboard
When I saw the wood photo clipboard that Emmie, from My Someday in May, created in just five minutes, I knew I had to share it with you for Five Minute Friday! How cute is that, right?

You'll find the easy tutorial over at My Someday In May, and I hope you'll spend a few minutes to get to know Emmie better while you ... View the Post
{five minute friday} A Pretty & Easy Way to Hang Wreaths on Front Doors
Fall is just around the corner, and I'm excited to start swapping out some of my summer colors for fall decor in the next week or two. Last year, I found some gorgeous peacock feather wreaths and I can't wait to hang them on our front doors again this year! Our front doors are quite tall and have frosted glass panels, and as a result, a lot of standard wreath hanging methods don't work well for us. I don't want to put any nail holes in the front of the doors, and those over door metal wreath ... View the Post
{link party} The Creative Circle – Week 10
Welcome to The Creative Circle link party - a place to share and find inspiration for your home! How was your week, friends? I've been keeping busy working hard on my One Room Challenge project - the conversion of our under stair storage area into a playroom for our two boys. My week was spent shopping, but not at the typical places... I've been hitting up used music stores, plumbing supply aisles, and sheet metal fabricators. You can read my ORC Week 2 progress update here... but don't got ... View the Post
