Yesterday I told you about the magnetic chalkboard wall that we created in our kitchen, and I gave you my not-so-glowing review of magnetic primer. While magnetic primer might not be strong enough for many uses, the only use I was specifically interested was allowing my boys to play with, and learn from, alphabet magnets. As I shared yesterday, I purchased some lightweight, plastic alphabet magnets from the toy store, but the magnets were not strong enough and they fell right to the ... View the Post

Fun Family Christmas Traditions
I wish we could enjoy the Christmas season with our family year round! Of course, logically, I realize that what makes it special is that it's just one month each year... but it's such a magical and wonderful time, especially with young kids! It was important to me that we start establishing holiday traditions with our boys from an early age, so that they would grow up with cherished memories of those traditions. I love hearing about other family's traditions, so today - as we officially start ... View the Post
Small Coat Closet Storage Solutions
Fall is officially here, which means winter is right around the corner. As the temperature cools down, now is a great time to tackle coat closet organization to save time and stress when you're trying to find a matching pair of gloves on your way out the door. Last year, I whipped my coat closet into shape and shared lots of coat closet organization ideas that can be applied to both large and small spaces. But since I'm lucky enough to have a larger than average closet, I realize that the ... View the Post

{organizing with style} 12 Ways to Organize with Baskets & Bins
Creating an organized and pretty, happy home is what this blog is all about, and I firmly believe that those things all naturally go hand in hand.

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Lennox® for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

For those of you that live in cold weather climates, today I've got five quick tips to help you get ready, too. BACK OF ... View the Post
Under Bathroom Sink Organization Ideas for Small Powder Room Cabinets
I like the style of the floating cabinet in our powder room, but it's very limited on actual storage space. I've had a hard time finding an under bathroom sink organizer that would fit around the pipes in this tiny cabinet. Over the years, I purchased a few options - but each time I broke my own cardinal rule and didn't measure first, so not surprisingly, none of them fit. As a result, the cabinet ended up looking like this for far too long... I know I'm not the only one with a very ... View the Post
Armoire Baby Central: A Changing Station and Organized Baby Clothes
We are getting settled in at home as a family of four, and Cooper is such a wonderful new addition! It's always amazing to me how much stuff comes along with such a tiny little person. Fortunately this time around there wasn't much new that we needed to purchase, but there was still the question of where to put it all. When we were preparing for the arrival of baby number one a year and half ago, we spent most of our time decorating the nursery and getting it organized with all ... View the Post
Organizing & Storing Kids’ Artwork
Both of my boys go to preschool two days a week, and they do an art project every day. We also do a lot of art projects at home, so all the creativity was starting to pile up. I used to put all of the art in a basket in our entry way table, but I knew I needed a better long term solution. I have fun long term plans for documenting our boys' art work in books so that we don't have to keep every individual piece of paper. I want to make one book for their toddler/preschool years art, one for ... View the Post
{seasonal style} Mason Jar Jack OLanterns
Ok, folks, I'm finally jumping on board the mason jar band wagon! Over the last year or two, I've seen a lot of mason jar Jack O Lanterns on Pinterest, but they've all had black faces and the light has shown through translucent paint or paper covering the remainder of the jar. I love all of these, but wanted to do something a bit different - so I opted for an opaque paint on the jar with the light shining through the unpainted eyes, nose, and mouth. I decided to take a ...

How to Organize Spray Paint Cans
Our house has a detached garage, which, as a DIYer, can sometimes pose challenges. Because the garage is unheated and uninsulated, I basically have a spray paint season, and then a long period of months when it's too cold to paint in the garage. And the months of cold weather also make spray paint storage a challenge. A couple of years ago, I added shelves in our utility room to store some of our paint and painting supplies. I did a lot of research to determine if it was safe to store paint ... View the Post
