It's Week 3 of the New Year New Room Refresh Challenge, which means just one more week until I get to share the final photos of the boys' new playroom. As I mentioned at the outset of the challenge, we actually completed this playroom refresh early because it was a Christmas gift to our boys, but I always like to walk you through each step in the process. During week 1, I showed you the before photos of the room, which was originally Beckett's bedroom before he and Cooper began sharing ... View the Post

Quick Family Room Storage Tip
Our basement family room is one hard working space - playroom for the kids, movie theater for the family, party space for family and friends {especially during football season}, mom and dad's quiet escape and tv binge-watching space after bedtime, and sometimes even dining room {shhhh... don't tell the kids, because they aren't allowed to eat down there}. One space that serves so many functions is bound to have storage challenges, and I've been trying to tackle them one at a ... View the Post
Playroom Furniture & Storage Ideas
It's Week 2 of the New Year New Room Refresh Challenge. Last week, I shared the before photos of the former bedroom that we recently converted into a playroom / hangout room better suited to our growing boys. This week, I'm talking about playroom furniture and how to choose hard working pieces that add both style and function to the space. Six years ago, I wrote a popular post titled "How to Decorate a Boy's Bedroom That Will Grow With Him." In that post, I made a pretty bold statement - I ... View the Post
{diy with style} Making Space for Storage in a Small Utility Room
When we bought our house five years ago, the basement was already finished. On the upside, it's definitely a nice perk to have a fully finished space that greatly adds to the livable square footage of our house, however, on the downside, that means that there is almost no storage space in the basement.{Although the basement does have an elevator closet - "what's that?" you ask. You can read about one here}. Our utility room in the basement is very small, and thanks to some pipes running ... View the Post

How to Store Jigsaw Puzzles In Less Space

Inexpensive Wreath Storage Idea
Hanging a pretty wreath on the front door is one of the easiest ways to add some seasonal cheer to your front porch, but storing all those holiday wreaths can become a challenge. This is especially true when you have double doors, resulting in two of every wreath. I speak from experience! I used to just have two Christmas wreaths, but over time, I've added to my collection and now also have sets of front door wreaths for spring, fall, Halloween, and more. I used to use wreath storage bags in ... View the Post
