Mom Home Guide House Tour

written by Lauren

mom, home, home, guide, house tour

*This post contains affiliate links. I just love looking at online house tours of other mom bloggers’ homes. To me, my home is a work in progress. Over the past few months, I’ve completed a few home improvements, like decorating and furnishing my home's living room, making my home’s mudroom/foyer area more functional, creating a fun study/media/play space for the kids and adding more privacy to my home’s backyard. There are several more projects I’d like to complete — some of the wishes on my wish list include hardwood flooring and making our unfinished basement more livable, but I am not Continue reading...

Prep Your Outdoor Spaces for Summer

written by Lauren

Editor's Note: I am working on some new projects for the blog today, so I thought I'd share this post from Mom Home Guide's archives. Many of these projects are on my to-do list for this year: I really need to paint the Adirondack chairs and I have to plant my flower tower for this summer! I am a HUGE fan of Sarah, who runs the Thrifty Decor Chick mom / home decor blog. I want to ready my outdoor spaces for summer entertaining, so I decided to check out her blog, Thrifty Decor Chick. Sarah has an incredible eye for design and is a fantastic DIYer! Plus, her home is beautiful! Continue reading...

Crushing on Garden Stools

Memorial Day Blow-Out! Enjoy up to 70% off everything you need for the weekend.  * This post contains affiliate links. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% mine. One of the hottest decor trends I've seen this year is the popularity of garden stools, sometimes called "drum tables." These design accents, often made out of ceramic or shimmery metal, are fun and versatile. Garden stools come in a wide variety of shades, including white, silver, gold, greens, blues, reds and yellows. The use of these drum-shaped stools are said to have originated in China at least 1,000 years ago, Continue reading...

You’ll Never See Me Post About…

written by Lauren

online safety tips, moms, bloggers

As a blogger, I share much of my life online. Readers of Mom Home Guide see everything from how I recently decorated and furnished my living room, what I’ve recently planted in the garden and my latest DIY projects, like the throw pillows I made for my home’s new sofa. There are things you’ll likely never see me post about online, however! There are reasons why I’m a home décor/DIY blogger and not a family/parenting  blogger. A main reason is that I’m obsessed with decorating and improving my home. Part of the reason is that blogging is my choice, not my family’s. I’m open to sharing my Continue reading...

Coupons.com #SuperheroMom Giveaway

*This post is sponsored by Coupons.com. I received a Target gift card from Coupons.com for this post -- the gift card helped me make my living room remodel happen. (I used the gift card towards a new accent chair!) The living room in my home has always been a family-friendly space. For most of the 11 years we’ve lived in our home, the living room has been a play space and housed only a piano, two toy boxes and some toys. Now that my children are older, I’ve taken back the space and turned it into a bright and pretty sitting room! To celebrate my home’s beautiful new room, I am Continue reading...

Easy Cloth Napkin Pillows

written by Lauren

easy, craft, sew, diy, napkin, pillows

Hello! I am back talking about easy DIY pillows again. (I last posted about my cloth placemat pillows.) As you probably know, I am in LOVE with my new Mohawk Home area rug, and my La-Z-Boy sofa, which I adore dressing up and making look pretty. So, when I  found 4-packs of cloth napkins on sale at Target for less than $3 a pack, I had to snag them! I just love the pretty prints. I knew I could transform the cloth napkins into DIY cloth napkin pillows for my new La-Z-Boy sofa! I bought three packs of the cloth napkins. Since four napkins are in each pack, I could make Continue reading...

DIY Simple Placemat Pillows

written by Lauren

DIY, craft, placemat, pillow, Target

I am loving the yellow and green placemat pillows that I made for my brand-new La-Z-Boy sofa! These sofa throw pillows were so easy to make -- I simply made them by stuffing two-sided cloth placemats with pillow stuffing! It took me only about 20 minutes to make these pillows -- I actually finished stitching them when the truck that delivered my new sofa pulled into my driveway! Talk about last minute! Simple Placemat Pillows I love how the yellow and white and green and white and yellow pillows add pops of color to the sofa. I also adore the edging around the pillows -- I didn't Continue reading...
