DIY Fabric Covered Bulletin Boards

August 19, 2015 By Lauren

I can't believe that the new school year is almost here! In my daughters' school district, school starts in about two and a half weeks! So, to get my kids ready for school, I made custom fabric covered bulletin boards for them! I found a fun and easy way to put the bulletin boards together -- I simply cut the fabric to fit the cork part of inexpensive bulletin boards, and pinned the fabric onto the board with decorative silver tacks! My kids love their new bulletin boards, since they each picked out their own fabrics, and the boards match the decor of their bedrooms! I am sharing the Continue reading...

Prep for Back to School & Giveaway

August 11, 2015 By Lauren

*I was provided with two Back to School combos in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are 100% my own. Now that August is here, the back to school season is swiftly approaching. I can't believe it! That means that my kids and I have to start prepping for back to school! In the interest of helping Mom Home Guide's readers get ready for back to school, I am sharing some back to school ideas! One of the best things I did was get a Back to School Combo for each of my daughters from Mabel's Labels. Both daughters chose the Stylish Scholars Combo. They both love the modern and Continue reading...

DIY Plant Stand from a Bar Stool

July 31, 2015 By Lauren

Hi, everyone! HAPPY FRIDAY!! Today I am guest blogging at the SITSGirls blog, where I am sharing how to make a quick and easy plant stand from a simple bar stool. My daughters love taking care of plants, so they have a few of their own houseplants in their room. They both needed a plant stand so their plants could be placed in front of their bedroom windows and get some much needed sunlight! This project was so simple -- I simply decorated the top of each bar stool with some scrapbook paper and a little Mod Podge. I wrapped some twine around the rungs at the bottom of each bar stool to Continue reading...

I love to entertain outside during the summertime, but didn't really have anything pretty placemats for my patio's beautiful wrought iron table. So I decided to make my own drop cloth placemats! You might wonder why I used a drop cloth to make my placemats. I used a drop cloth because drop cloths are super cheap (you can get one for less than $12), durable and look a lot like linen! I only needed 1 drop cloth to make my 4 Continue reading...
