Thank you to Office Depot for sponsoring this post. As always, all ideas and opinions are my own. Mompreneur was a term I hadn't even heard of before having kids, but through a series of life events I've found myself with this title and all of the perks and challenges that come with it. Balancing being a small-business-owner and work-from-home mom is a constant work in progress, but this year, as my business has grown, I've come up with some pretty good systems to keep me on track. ...

How to Design a Shared Family Room and Playroom
Like many families, we spent much of our summer outdoors - exploring the mountains, walking to the park, and playing in the backyard. But now that fall is here and winter is right around the corner, we are spending much more of our family time indoors, specifically in our basement family room, which also serves as the kids playroom. Today I'm sharing my five of my best tips for creating a shared family room and playroom that is comfortable and works well for the whole family. I am ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 1 – Planning a Play Room Under the Stairs
Today marks the start of another One Room Challenge. Just one year ago, I heard about this event for the first time and about two hours later I threw my hat into the ring, committing to get Beckett's "big boy" bedroom completed in a mere six {really it's five} weeks time. It was CRAZY, but it got done and that made it all worth while! So worth while that I subjected myself to the craziness again in the fall when I redid our master bedroom for my second One Room Challenge. And just like that {a ... View the Post

4 Tips for Organizing Bathroom Drawers
I organized our master bathroom drawers shortly after we moved into our house six years ago, and I must have done something right, because the drawers are just as organized today as they were on day one. That almost never happens!! Usually I have to reevaluate every so often and tweak the system to better suit our changing needs. But somehow I managed to get our bathroom drawers right on the first try! Obviously, what's right for us won’t necessarily be right for you, but I can share a few ... View the Post
Stylish & Functional Linen Closet Organization
Last fall, when I decided to give the laundry closet a major makeover to make it brighter and more functional, I knew that meant the linen closet would need a makeover as well. The linen closet is adjacent to the laundry closet in our second floor hallway, and while each is accessed by its own set of doors, internally there is no division between the two spaces. But beyond just getting a new, coordinating look, this was the perfect excuse for me to finally achieve a more organized and ... View the Post
How to Install a Wall of Garage Shelving and Drawers
In the past few weeks, I've received the same question from several different readers asking for more specifics on how we installed our garage shelving system. I realize now that I clearly didn't provide enough information about our wall-mounted shelves and drawers in my previous garage organizing posts, so today I'm going to break down all the details. This post contains affiliate links. If you purchase something I recommend, you'll pay the same price, but I may receive a small ... View the Post

Simple Pantry Organization Hacks
A disorganized home can create unnecessary stress. This is especially true when it comes to your pantry because it's a space you use multiple times a day, every day! Trying to organize a pantry can feel overwhelming and frustrating because its contents change so frequently. It's easy enough to line things up neatly on the shelves, but the real challenge is creating an organized pantry system that your whole family can keep up with so you won't find yourself rearranging things again and ...

The Best Ways to Organize Under the Kitchen Sink
Organizing under the kitchen sink may be one of the most challenging spots in the entire house! Not only are you dealing with pipes, but in most cases also a garbage disposal. There is often little usable space, but so many purposes that this little space needs to serve. It took me nearly six years {wow, that's embarrassing}, but I have finally taken control of the space under our kitchen sink. It's not only organized, but I might even dare to call it pretty. We've been living with this new ... View the Post
