How excited were you to read Clean Mama’s interview last Monday?!! Don’t tell me I’m the only one out there that struggles to keep a clean and tidy house. Heh, and with three kids and a hubby working overtime to undo all my work, it’s an uphill battle! I had the pleasure of starting Clean […]
Princess Pink Closet
Yes, I know we are right in the middle of our fantastic Interviewing the Incredibles series, but I just couldn’t wait to share my latest project! I mean, with all this great information and inspiration from the superheroes of organization and diy, you wouldn’t believe all the things getting done in my house. Plus, one of […]
The Incredibles: Clean Mama
When I say the word “clean” it comes out as a dreamy wistful sigh…Â I love the process of organizing, but UGH I hate cleaning! Weird right? Especially since the two tend to go hand-in-hand. It is clear that I need to get some cleaning love and I’m desperate for a bit of direction and inspiration! […]
Organize Me Pretty
Andrea from Simple Organized Living really broke down the principles of having an organized life in Monday’s interview (read it here). I love the idea of having a wonderfully organized house and life, but when it comes to where the rubber meets the road…well, good intentions sometimes fall a little short. Sometimes we need to […]
The Incredibles: Simple Organized Living
I am such a dreamer when it comes to organization. I’m convinced that once I’m organized little halo’s will lit upon my children, music will will play overhead like I’m living in a broadway, and my eye will always have a sparkle. No, no, I don’t think that… I just feel like I’m floating on air when […]
Bold Design
Hearing from Carmelat Our Fifth House about how to be bold in our design (read the interview here), and being blown away by her incredible home, I’m more than ready to put into practice what I’ve learned! Plus, I’ve read and re-read Fieldstone Hill’s series on Overcoming Design Paralysis (read my post about it here), so I’m pretty excited about […]
The Incredibles: Our Fifth House
“I use my no-fear no-rules design attitude to transform our fifth house into a home”… these were the first words to pop out at me when I stumbled across the Our Fifth House blog. For a moment I got lost in my own reflections, wondering why I so afraid to be bold in my design. […]
Dare to DIY
I admit it, I am a bit DIY challenged when it comes to projects requiring the big power tools or actual skill. My poor little power tool set includes a cheap jigsaw, a hand-me-down drill, a rusty old sander, and a questionable router. In Monday’s exclusive, Sarah from The Ugly Duckling House shared with us […]
The Incredibles: The Ugly Duckling House
What is the scariest part of tackling ugly spaces in your house? For many it’s the projects that require caulk guns, and routers, primers, and saws, electrical wires, and grout. Whether decorating or organizing, a little hardcore diy knowledge can go a loooong way. It’s also the one thing that tends to give the most people […]

Organized School at Home

Some of you already know my kids are schooled at home, and I’m eager to introduce you to my secret weapon for staying on task with schooling…a few carefully executed techniques, and virtual school.

If this were a real emergency, game pieces would be scattered across the floor. We’ll get back to your regularly scheduled blog in a moment. […]
The Year Round Valentine
I admit it, I’m just not the holiday celebrating type. I heard that! Your jaw just hit the floor in disbelief…sorry! I had to be honest. Love me anyway! I’ve always figured that a no-stress no-expectation approach to the holidays was  best…especially for the sake of my man! *giggle* Inevitably my manly (but oh so […]
For the Love of Labels & Glass…
I love glass, I adore labels, why it’s a match made in heaven! Break out the confetti and lets make this marriage happen baby! I love that I can upcycle, have a storage solution, and great decor all at once. Score! Often we toss those empty jars without a second glance, why not put them […]
