My family has had problems in the past with having a place to store our off-season clothes. So I've come up with a few ideas of where to store them. It turns out that there are several spots in our home that make great storage areas for off-season clothing. You would think you could put off-season clothes in the attic or basement, but basements and attics aren't ideal for clothing storage. Attics and basements are sometimes hot or damp. I've come up with a list of places throughout the home where off-season clothes can be stored. Where to Store Off-Season Clothing Continue reading...
Making a Basement Rec Room {12 Months of Goals} #DonateStuffCreateJobs
Hi, everyone! Welcome to this month's 12 months of goals post. Once a month, my friend, Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom and I each set a monthly goal for ourselves. We've found that setting small achievable goals is a great way to get stuff done! I'd like to work on clearing out some stuff from my home's basement for my goal this month. We have a lot of junk down there! Now that my daughters are teens and like to have their friends over more often, it would be nice to have a big space for them to host their friends. My home has a very open floor plan, so the only private space they have Continue reading...

Fall Cleaning Hacks with a Lint Roller
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #StickItToLint #CollectiveBias I always have a few Scotch-Brite™ Lint Rollers in my house. I need the rollers to get hair off clothing -- and I don't mean pet hair. It's my hair that's everywhere! I shed a lot. Lint rollers are also great for removing that pesky fuzz that accumulates on clothing in the dryer. I've discovered that lint rollers are handy home cleaning tools -- especially for folks like me who don't like digging out a heavy vacuum cleaner to rid the house of Continue reading...
Creating More Closet Space
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #FreeToBe #CollectiveBias My husband, kids and I all have allergies. We also have a clothing storage problem. When left out in laundry baskets and not properly folded and put away, clothing can collect dust, resulting in extra sneezes and sniffles! I’ve decided to think outside the box this fall and tackle my family's clothing storage issue. Our closets are full, despite the bags of clothing I donate to charities. Yet, in my home’s upstairs hallway, my family has a wall of Continue reading...
How to Store Off-Season Clothes
Now that the weather is getting cooler and we can put away our shorts and swim suits, the question is, how to store all our off-season summer clothing? For my family, we need to find places other than our bedroom closets to store our off-season clothes -- our closets are way too full! A cool, dry place is the best location to store off-season clothes. Basements and attics aren't ideal for clothing storage, since attics and basements can be hot or damp. I've come up with a list of places throughout the home where off-season clothes can be stored: Where to Store Off-Season Continue reading...

I think setting monthly goals is a great exercise for getting things done! So Here Are My June Goals! 1) Plan and Host Birthday Party: My daughters celebrated their 13th birthday last month! Their birthday is toward the end of the month, so we often wind up throwing a party for them in June instead of May, since it's hard to compete with Memorial Day. We haven't settled on the exact date and time yet, but I'd love to host a backyard birthday Continue reading...

May Goals
Today I am joining my friend, Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom, in sharing my personal goals for May. I think setting monthly goals is a great exercise for getting things done! 1. Clean and Beautify Backyard. I have been all about cleaning and organizing my home lately. So, one of my May goals is to clean up and improve the backyard, so my family and I can enjoy our yard this coming spring and summer! I got a start on that goal last week -- I filled five trash bins with twigs and branches from our backyard and scheduled a yard waste pickup with my town. I don't think my husband and I have Continue reading...
