My book club is one of my guilty pleasures! I love having an excuse to read a good book every month {and I love that my book club girls really read the books}! This month, we read Vanessa Diffenbaugh's The Language of Flowers, and beside being a moving story about a woman with a gift for flowers who is struggling to overcome her past, the book also inspired me to learn more about the meanings behind the flowers that we give and receive. With Valentine's Day just one week ... View the Post

Christmas Photo Booth Props Made with Cricut
Playing dress up is one of my boys favorite ways to spend an afternoon - whether it's a super hero costume, a fireman coat and hat, or an animal mask and tail, it makes them giggle and they beg me to take photos. So for the holidays season, I thought it would be really fun to create some Christmas photo booth props for them and their friends to enjoy! These adorable Christmas photo props were super quick and easy to make using my Cricut Expore Air, and they are definitely going to ... View the Post
How to Create an Easy DIY Wood Sign with Cricut
Thank you to Cricut for sponsoring this post, and thank you for supporting the brands that make this blog possible. As always all opinions are my own. This post contains also affiliate links.

My mom bought be the original model Cricut back when I was in law school {more than a decade ago}, and I've been using the heck out of that thing ever ... View the Post
{seasonal style} My Home Style: Christmas Tree Edition
Welcome to another addition of "My Home Style." Today we're talking Christmas trees. As you may already know, I describe my personal style as MODERN. GRAPHIC. FAMILY. Last year I showed you how the big Christmas tree in our basement {the one where Santa leaves the loot} reflects this style, but today I'm excited to show you the new ornaments I made for the skinny tree in our living room. Special thanks to Stephanie of Casa Watkins for coordinating today's My Home Style: Christmas ... View the Post
{Last Chance to Vote} Apartment Therapy’s “Room for Color” Contest
As I mentioned yesterday, a while back I entered the Apartment Therapy "Room for Color" contest by submitting photos of Beckett's ombre striped nursery. And earlier this week I learned that my submission made it through the "Editor's Phase" and has now been posted on the contest website for the first round of voting. Thanks to everyone who helped by voting yesterday. I'm now in the TOP 10 in my division, but I need to move up to the top 5 to make it to the judging round! Can ... View the Post

{mom’s style} Rustic Chic Powder Room
If you missed the announcement about the launch of my new feature called {mom's style}, hop on over here for a quick introduction to my awesome mother! As I mentioned last Friday, we spent our Labor Day weekend in beautiful Breckenridge, Colorado. I raved about why Breckenridge is one of my favorite places, and it turns out I'm not the only one who feels that way since just this week Forbes named Breckenridge in the top 5 on their list of America's Prettiest Towns. Two ... View the Post
{mom’s style} Launching a New Feature!
Today I'm launching a new feature that I'm calling {mom's style} where, from time to time, I'll be sharing with you some of my mom's fabulous designs and projects. As I mentioned last week, my mom and I have very different decorating styles (mine more modern and contemporary with lots of bright colors - hers featuring many more earth tones with carefully selected pops of color). Let me start by introducing you to my mom, Debbie. Can you see the resemblance? I can't describe ... View the Post
My Home Style: Before & After Edition
Last fall, I teamed up with a group of 20 bloggers to share our unique decorating styles. We were each challenged by our host, Stephanie of Casa Watkins Living, to come up with just three words to define our style. I debated a long time about what my three words should be - modern? urban? colorful? bold? Finally I settled on MODERN. GRAPHIC. FAMILY. This week, we are revisiting our design definitions, but this time each participating blogger is sharing before and after photos that ... View the Post
{organizing with style} An Organized Holiday Shopping List Using Google Drive
My name is Angela, and I'm addicted to making lists! There I said it. The first step is admitting you have a problem, right? Ok, so maybe list making is not really a huge problem, but they way I typically go about it is problematic. I have a tendency to grab a notepad and make my list and put it in my purse where it promptly gets wrinkled and eventually lost. I don't know about you, but I get about a million catalogs in the mail, and they seem to double around the holidays. ... View the Post

{gifts with style} Can’t Think of a Good Teacher Appreciation Gift? Now you CAN!
Teacher Appreciation Week always seems to sneak up on me and I'm always scrabbling at the last minute. If you feel the same way, then consider this your friendly public service announcement that it's just one month away - the week of May 4-8th. This year, I've vowed to be better prepared, and I'm already working a fun DIY gift for my boys to give to their teachers, which I'll share with all of you next week.
