My sweet, miniature man can not make up his mind. One day he loves Skylanders, then it’s Minecraft, then Star Wars, and I just can’t justify paying to redecorate his room over and over again if it is only going to last a month. But, a good hands-on project? That, I can get into. We’ve redecorated […] Read more…
This week, we created a high impact-low cost art project with loads of personality that I hope you’ll love. These oversize kid poster prints created a unique gallery in our living room that really sets the tone for the whole house. Our house is loud, chaotic, creative, and fun so we hung these photos in […] Read more…
What’s better than a rustic-modern kitchen table? A DIY dining table with rustic-modern elements! Even though we don’t cook a lot, our kitchen is still the heart of our home in a big way. It’s where we have our infamous “bad manners” dinners, make messy play dough, and do hours of homework after school. It […] Read more…

Do you ever feel like you are drowning in kid’s art projects? At our house, all four kids are incredible little makers, do-ers, and crafters. I love to let them create and see what they come up with, but also want a clean, organized home with loads of personality. Today’s art project does just that. Today, […] Read more…
This project took only 30 minutes, looks great, and we had a great time together creating it. I let Boston decide if we were going to create straight, more symmetrical lines or a crazy, more spontaneous design and he elected to do a more uniform, striped pattern.

Is it just me, or does every Christmas start to get away from you too? I start each December totally motivated to buy the same amount of presents for each kid, stay in budget, and not forget all the in-laws and still spoil my husband. Yet no matter how much I try there always seems […] Read more…
This autumn, I have taken a vow to enjoy the season to it’s absolute fullest, avoid whining about the cold weather, and decorate my house for every holiday… even Halloween, Easter, & Valentine’s Day. (Why do I always skip those?) My front porch vision isn’t complete yet, but I just had to show you guys […] Read more…
