The siding on the backside of our house never gets sun and tends to get really grimy with dust, tree pollen, and who knows what else. Shade to spread and organic matter to eat is all mold and mildew need to be happy. This year we let the grime get kind of out of hand…
I cannot tell you how GOOD it feels so good to be back with another easy DIY! So much has happened since January, but also not a whole lot has been accomplished. My fellow parents will understand- we’re mostly just staying afloat around here. I’ve been sharing updates here and there on our basement renovation…
Organizing is really “on trend” right now, which is kind of my dream come true. Bins, baskets, drawers… These are a few of my favorite things. The only problem with trendy things is the inevitable markup. Organizers are so expensive- it can be nearly impossible to make a dent in your project without a major…
Last summer I shared my 5 favorite Norwex products and, as it turns out, a lot of you were curious to find out more! So I’m back at it with another 5 that are newer to my collection but equally worth buying, in my opinion! I do not sell Norwex, I just enjoy sharing products…
Doesn’t every house have a nondescript coat closet? Largely ignored and overly stuffed with junk? We did not have plans to renovate our entryway closet, but as luck would have it, we ended up with a spare closet organizer. A certain pregnant lady lacking her usual brain power ordered the wrong size organizer for the…
Our house is way overdue for cleaning, so I thought I’d bring you along with me today! The MVP on my cleaning days is Norwex. Look out, here comes a disclaimer… We’re simple people. I’m not a saleswoman. In fact, selling anything for anyone is ranked pretty high up on my list of worst nightmares….
It feels like just yesterday I was sitting here writing about C’s nursery transformation. But now that C has turned 2, things are changing big time in his room! While a lot of baby things are moving next door to the new nursery, there are a few things that we wouldn’t dream of moving because…
When we took out two ginormous trees in our front yard, we knew there might be *some* moisture problems in the basement. To say we underestimated how much those trees were drinking would be an understatement. For three years we had water seeping into our basement every time it rained. It was pretty bad the…
Boy, things have changed! We are currently in a worldwide pandemic and trying to do our part by staying home. But it’s not all bad around here! We have some big news to share… After facing trials and losses last year in trying to conceive, we are so happy to announce that we’re pregnant again!…
In our *old* age, we have determined that comfort is key. One of our first purchases for our current home was a pair of metal counter stools for our kitchen island. While they are cute, affordable, and, yes, even functional, they are gosh dang terrible to sit on. I actually avoided sitting at the island…
