Wall Art to Cover Unfinished Basement Walls
Here at Mom Home Guide, I’ve written frequently about my hopes to at some point make my home’s unfinished basement a more livable and fun space for my kids. As unfinished basements go, my home’s basement is great – the ceiling is pretty high, and the basement, while cluttered at this point, is at least clean, dry and fairly bright. Of course, I’d love to finish the basement, but with a budget in mind, I am looking for ways to improve the basement without breaking the bank. That’s why I love the products at Lot 26 Studio. The web shop has very large canvas wall hangings and wall decals Continue reading...

Monogrammed Glass Votive Holders
This weekend, I went to a bridal shower for one of my younger cousins. (Congratulations, Amanda!) For her shower, there was a wishing well in which each guest was asked to bring a candle for the bride-to-be, since she loves candles. I wanted to do something unique and memorable for Amanda, so I made her monogrammed glass votive holders for candles. The craft was very easy -- to make the monogrammed votives, all I did was pick a font and type the initials for the bride's and the groom's first names and an ampersand. I cut the letters out and glued them to the votives with Mod Podge. Continue reading...
How to Make a Fringed Burlap Table Runner
I am so excited -- today I am guest posting for the mom blog, 5MinutesforMom! This Canadian mom blog is a great place for moms and features everything from DIY and craft tutorials, to giveaways to recipes. For 5MinutesforMom, I wrote about a very fun DIY craft I did for my home's dining table. I've been noticing that burlap decor is everywhere these days, from stenciled burlap to painted burlap, so I decided to do a burlap craft project of my own. DIY Fringed Burlap Table Runner My home's dining table is very long, so it's been difficult to find an inexpensive table runner for it! So, Continue reading...
Pretty and Simple Curtain Trim
A year or so ago, I purchased long room-darkening curtains for my home's master bedroom. The room faces east, so as the sun comes up, it gets extremely sunny in that room! As my husband and I tend to be night owls and frequently stay up late, we don't appreciate that morning sun too much, as it wakes us up earlier than we would like! (LOL!) Luckily, the room darkening drapes do a really great job at blocking out the sun and keeping our room nice and dark until we are ready to get up. Dressing Up Curtains with Ribbon Unfortunately, however, I chose an earthy brown color for Continue reading...
Mom Home Guide House Tour
I just love looking at online house tours of other mom bloggers' homes. One house tour I recently saw was that of blogger Jenna from SAS Interiors. I just love how beautiful her home looks, from her tidy and clutter-free foyer, to her modern kitchen with beautiful wood floors to the serene master bedroom. I wish my home was so masterfully designed! To me, my home is a work in progress. Over the past few months, I've completed a few home improvements, like making our home's mudroom/foyer area more functional, creating a fun study/media/play space for the kids and adding Continue reading...
