As we dive into the school year, it’s always a good idea to organize a workstation for our kids! It is especially important after a year with so many schools going virtual due to the effects of COVID. We saw how vital it was that our kids have a quiet, organized, and comfortable workstation where […]

Children’s Book Storage
[left]Hi there! Iris, from IrisNacole.com here! I’ve been brainstorming over some really great children’s storage ideas for y’all, and I think I’ve come up with one of my most favorite projects to date to share with y’all! Pretty much the moment we knew we were pregnant, my husband and I started collecting books for […]
DIY No Sew Applique Labels
[left] Hola! Stephanie again from Casa Watkins! Spring cleaning is upon us and I don’t know about you, but it’s not a fantastic time of the year for us. There is just so much to clean, sort, decide what to keep, etc…etc… So, one of the ways that I stay motivated to clean is to […]
Schedule and Chore Board
Well, it has finally happened. My eldest daughter asked me to create a chore board that is “pre-teen appropriate”…aka she is ready for a big girl chore system, no more cute printable sheets with colorful dots filled in like the ones we currently use. *Sigh* my baby is growing up! Seriously, anyone know how to stop them […]
Sweet Little Homework Caddy
It’s funny how you can see a simple clever solution floating around Pinterest, one you’ve probably pinned 15 times, and then never do it. Well I’m finally going to do it. I’m going to assemble a simple little homework caddy, and if you have kids, you should do it with me! It takes 5 minutes. So why […]
The Most Attractive Storage For Kid Stuff
I’m thrilled that my 11-year-old daughter wants her room to be “all grown up”! I confess, I’m excited partly because that room doubles as a guest room, and partly because I’ve been looking forward to decorating a growing girl’s room. So when we started looking for ways to store her toys, I just about died of happiness when […]
Chore Chart – Mint Edition
“Chore charts”, “sanity”, the words might as well be synonymous. If you have kids you know how incredibly fantastic it would be to have them dash up to you and proudly announce they are done for the day with everything on their chart. Ahhh yes, that’s what happiness feels like. Of course my kids are still […]
The Thank You Jar
I want to help my children become kind, courteous, self-less little people who put one another other first. Nobody pinch me, I know I’m dreaming!! But if there were ever a dream worthy of pursuit, this would be it. Being courteous isn’t much of a challenge when it is to those outside the home, but sometimes we […]
Library Book Basket
My girls are big readers, and big mess makers, and big on losing things.Not a good combination for taking advantage of a “free” library…I believe I’m paying my way in fees. So when I take a moment to write about buying a library book basket, you’ll have a better idea of why…. when you have […]
DIY Pin & Magnetic Board
Something needed to go above my daughters dresser, it looked a bit sparse sitting in the corner all by its lonesome. Mirror? Or perhaps a few framed photos? I love the look of a finely decorated wall space, but I’m also a die hard practical. Finally I settled on something I knew my ever artistic […]
Encourage Reading With The Perfect Nook
Every room should have a curl up, get cozy, never-wanna-get-up-again reading corner. I remember when I was a kid finding clever ways to hide so I could read without being caught and put to work… *chuckle* remember hiding an open book under a towel on the towel bar in the bathroom? Heh heh, I thought […]
Under Bed Storage
My middle munchkin likes to keep her papers and projects in defined piles on the floor. Fine, at least she “organizes” her stuff (or something like that). In case you were wondering, why yes, yes I am twitching. Of course, I want her to learn that a truly clean room means keeping her floors clear […]
