In December of 2017, I received a Sleep Number bed as a part of a blog sponsorship and I shared an initial review of it (as a part of that sponsorship) in April of 2018. You can find that post HERE if you’re interested. I am sometimes asked about products I receive through sponsorships and if I still use them … Read More
bathroom organizing & cleaning make-up brushes
Just like everyone else in the world, January has me itching to get organized. I am a driven person and that can be a positive thing when it comes to a to-do list, but it can also be a detriment when faced with an entire house to organize and purge. I want to get it all done all at one … Read More
favorite home projects of 2018
As I’ve been looking back over the past year and the projects we completed, I realized we have done a lot! 2017 was about getting settled, listening to our house, getting to know its style, and learning the way it functioned best. It was also about tackling the immediate issues, like an aging water heater, broken garage doors, and turning … Read More
two cents on tidying up
I’m going to say right off the bat that I have never read Marie Kondo’s book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up.

customizing floor grates
Well, I’m starting off my first full work week of the new year sick in bed! I am itching to organize and get to work on some of the plans I drew up over the holidays, but those will all have to wait…hopefully for just a day or two. Until I’m back on my feet and working on projects again, … Read More
top 10 posts of 2018
Happy New Year! I absolutely love the time of year between Christmas and New Years when I hibernate, take time off, and generally loaf around without any deadlines, commitments or expectations beyond wearing pajama-like clothes all day, every day. We’ve been doing puzzles and science experiments, watching movies, playing board games, letting the boys have playdates and sleepovers. I had … Read More
HGTV Dream Home Tour
Disclosure: This post is sponsored by the Delta Faucet brand. As always all opinions are honest and my own (and I would’ve written this post with or without the sponsorship!) From a young age, I would dream about houses. I would style my dollhouse and rearrange the furniture more than I played with the dolls. I would draw houses in church … Read More
