This post contains Amazon affiliate links. Happy Friday, everyone! This week flew by so quickly, but I'm not complaining that the weekend is here! Today I'm sharing a Friday Five, a quick roundup of what I've been up to lately. Waterproof Dog Boots My family and I have owned our Shih Tzu puppy, Mochi, for about 8 months now. We’ve learned that puppies can be messy! Our house is filled with carpeting, so I’m always looking for ways to keep the floors clean.

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #MySpringClean #TeamSponge #CollectiveBias Many of you know I have been working to update my home's kitchen. My biggest kitchen project so far has been painting my kitchen's oak cabinets white. I am only about halfway done, but I am loving how my "new" painted white oak cabinets look! There are fixes I'd love for the kitchen -- like adding a tile backsplash, updating the floors, replacing the countertops and installing a beautiful farmhouse sink. So I'm excited to share with you Continue reading...

Christmas garland for a bathroom window for Christmas

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #GetUnderTheRim #CollectiveBias I love decorating my home for the holidays.

Fall Cleaning Hacks with a Lint Roller

written by Lauren

Scotch-Brite Lint Rollers are great for cleaning pillows

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

written by Lauren

Using, pretty cloth bins, you can create "closet" space in a simple bookcase.

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...
