Before having kids, we used one of the bedrooms in our house as a home gym. It wasn't very stylish, but it was certainly spacious. Fast forward a few years, and that exercise room became a kid's bedroom and we pared down our workout equipment and shoved it {quite literally} into the corner of the guest room. It's taken me nearly four years to finally ... View the Post

{organizing with style} Floor Plans That Make You Go Hmmm…
I'm flashing back to the early '90's with that C+C Music Factory reference, but it's the best way I can describe today's topic. I think we've all experienced those moments - when house hunting or living in our own homes - where you ask yourself what the architect and builder were thinking when they planned the space. We certainly wondered that quite a few times when we toured our {now} home for the first time and were considering making an offer. Why do those linen closet doors open into ... View the Post
Small Utility Room Shelving Solution & the Best Way to Organize Paint Supplies
Having a fully finished basement adds a lot of livable square footage to our house, but it also means that there's almost no storage space. But you know I love a good challenge, so we worked our magic and managed to squeeze in some much needed utility room shelving and organized every available inch of space. HOW TO ADD SHELVING TO A SMALL UTILITY ROOM Utility rooms generally aren't the most storage friendly spaces, and the pipes running floor to ceiling in the middle of ours made it ... View the Post

{planning} 2015 List Making: Decorating and Organizing Plans for the New Year
Are you a list maker? I am! I use the Reminders app on my iPhone to make lists for everything in my life, from shopping lists and general to dos, to lists of future projects and plans for each room of our home. We spent last week enjoying lots of family time in the mountains, and on the way home we got stuck in traffic. Rather than being frustrated by the delay, Scott and I used the time {while the kids gloriously slept in the backseat} to review our project lists for each room of our house - ... View the Post

It's time once again for the One Room Challenge - that twice annual, six week design challenge hosted by Calling it Home in which hundreds of design bloggers completely transform one room in their homes in a mere six weeks time.

{organizing with style} My Makeup Drawer
Is your makeup a mess? It doesn't have to be! Today I'm sharing a few simple tips for keeping makeup organized in a drawer. STEP 1 - SORT & PURGE The first step to organizing any drawer is to empty it out completely. Once everything is out on the counter, begin sorting your makeup. The categories I selected were eyes, lips and face. Once I had my makeup sorted, I began to purge anything that was too old or that I just don't use anymore. I am never sure how long to keep ...

Menswear Themed Boy’s Room
TODAY IS THE DAY! The day that I get to reveal Beckett's new big boy room! I said back in Week 1 that I work best under a deadline, and is that ever true. There is no way that this room would have gotten done in six weeks time if it weren't for all of your encouragement, A LOT of hard work and late nights from my uber supportive husband, and some very special help from my talented mother. If you are interested in the weekly update posts to see how it all got done, you can find those ... View the Post

{organizing with style} Small Sewing Space Inspiration
When I was in elementary school and junior high, I took sewing lessons and learned all the basics, but until last year, I never owned a sewing machine of my own. Over the years, my mom {who is a very talented sewer} asked me many times if I would like a machine, but I always said no because I had no where to put it and knew that I wouldn't really use it if I had to drag it out to the kitchen table and then put it away each time. I knew that in order to justify owning a sewing machine, I needed ... View the Post
