January 15, 2019 By Lauren

how to organize an attic

 This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links. Metro Products provided me with free Attic Dek flooring in exchange for my honest review. Today I am joining my blogging friends for the Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop. The hop challenges us not to just pin inspiring projects on Pinterest, but to actually complete them! My focus today is on my home's attic. I've been looking into lots of ideas on Pinterest on how to store and organize household items in an attic! My husband and I recently added flooring to our home's attic by installing some Attic Dek panels. The panels are lightweight, yet Continue reading...

Where to Store Off-Season Clothing

February 26, 2018 By Lauren

Colorful bins are a great place to store shoes and socks in a mud room area in an entry way

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

December 12, 2017 By Lauren

My December goal is to convert my home's basement storage space into a fun rec area for my teens

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...

Organizing Beach Towels with Ziploc®

June 26, 2017 By Lauren

Ziploc bags are a great way to compactly store big stacks of beach bags

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #OrganizeWithZiplocSpaceBags #CollectiveBias This summer is a big one for my family. My twin daughters will be going to high school in the fall. They are too old for the summer camp they used to attend, and will be home all summer. I’m looking forward to enjoying some family time. I don’t want clutter problems in our home to ruin that. That’s where my new Ziploc® Flexible Totes Jumbo and Ziploc® Space Bags® come into play.

Fall Cleaning Hacks with a Lint Roller

October 24, 2016 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

October 20, 2016 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...

How to Store Off-Season Clothes

October 5, 2016 By Lauren

how to store off-season summer and winter clothing

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...

June Goals

June 1, 2016 By Lauren

To help get things done this month, I've come up with a list of goals for June

This post contains Amazon affiliate links. Today I am joining my friend, Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom, in sharing my personal goals for June. 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...
