Two years ago, when I was nine months pregnant with Cooper, I decided that the one thing I absolutely had to do before he was born was to freshen up our front porch. Imagine me on the porch with my giant belly painting the doorbell... of wait, you don't have to imagine it because I have the photos. The changes we made a couple years really did have a big impact on the front porch, but something was still missing. Our front porch is very tall, so we really needed something to add just a bit of ... View the Post

{seasonal style} “Caps For Sale” Halloween Costume + 17 More DIY Costume Ideas
Last year, I showed you some photos of my boys' "Caps for Sale" Halloween costumes a few days after the holiday, but since it was post-Halloween and no longer timely, I didn't share the tutorial at that time. But I have received quite a few questions about the DIY elements of the costumes, so I thought that this year I would provide the quick how-to well in advance of the holiday. And today, I've joined with some other fabulous bloggers that have created 17 more fantastic DIY costumes for kids ... View the Post

{gifts with style} Friday Flowers
If we are friends on Facebook, then you have already heard me gushing about what a wonderful husband I have. But since today is his birthday (finally, he's as old as me again), I thought I'd gush a little more in blog-land. Seriously, I have the sweetest husband in the world who is always doing thoughtful little things for me. But for our anniversary last month, he went above and beyond by getting me an entire year of fresh flowers! He made arrangements with the flower shop in ... View the Post

How to Organize Gift Wrap In a Closet
Confession time! I am a gift wrap hoarder! I've never met a pretty roll of wrapping paper that I didn't like {especially if it's on sale}, and I keep every gift bag that comes into our house for future reuse. Those adorable gift tags in the Target dollar section get me every time, I can't pass up the giant bags of bows that are always on sale for 75% off after the holidays, and you'll even find me refolding tissue paper if it's not too wrinkled to use again. But what is a gift wrap loving ... View the Post

Snowflake Tic Tac Toe
With Christmas just a week away, I am excited about today's Five Minute Friday tip, because it's one that we'll be able to enjoy throughout the winter season. As you may have noticed in past posts, we have a large tic tac toe board on our living room coffee table - a favorite of my boys - that is filled with the standard Xs and Os throughout much of the year. But I also enjoy switching things up for the holidays... I bought this tic tac toe board at Z Gallerie a number of years ago... ... View the Post
{five minute friday} Tick Tock: A Chalk Wall Clock
I rely on the cell phone in my pocket to know what time it is, completely ignoring all the clocks in our house most of the time. My boys on the other hand are fascinated by clocks - and not the digital ones on the appliances, but the real ones! So while they were at preschool the other day, I added a quick and easy clock to their chalkboard wall in the kitchen. They spotted it the second we came through the door after school, and man were they excited! A while back, I ... View the Post
Labeling Trash, Recycling & Compost Bins
Right after we moved into our house we swapped out the single pull out trash can in the kitchen for a double pull-out system that allows us to have both trash and recycling hidden within a single cabinet. Recently, Denver began a new compost program and we are excited to be participating, but this mean adding one more trash can. Since we had no space for an additional can within a cabinet or under the kitchen sink, we opted for a stainless steel flip-top can at the end of our counter. This ... View the Post
Remove Wine Bottle Labels Without Tearing or Damaging
Do you ever get on a kick where you find yourself pinning a whole bunch of ideas for one type of project? I recently started pinning ideas for craft and DIY projects to upcycle wine bottles. One thing that every one of these projects has in common is that you have to remove the label before you can get started. Fortunately I have a super fast and easy method to remove labels from wine bottles {or any glass jar for that matter} that is totally mess free and leaves the labels perfectly in tact in ...

{organizing with style} Tutorial for Creating Vinyl Labels for Bathtub Toy Storage
Thanks to all those who checked out my recent project to create stylish tub toy storage in our guest bathroom. As promised, I am back to give you the details on how I made the labels for the storage bins. These labels are made from adhesive-backed vinyl, which can be purchased at many craft stores as well as online. This is the same kind of vinyl that can be used to create wall quotes and other kinds of wall decals. It sticks well, but can easily and safely be removed at ... View the Post
