Not Your Average Thermostat (Lennox iComfort® S30)

September 15, 2015 By Lauren

This is a sponsored post for Lennox through Sverve. All opinions expressed are entirely my own. This summer, I had foot surgery. My surgery means that I haven't been very mobile lately. My foot has healed much since my surgery, but I am still hobbling around! So home technology that can make my life easier grabs my attention! That's why the I am intrigued by the Lennox iComfort® S30, a wireless-enabled touchscreen thermostat. Since my foot surgery, I've had to ask my husband and daughters to do things for me -- even little things like turning down the thermostat when it gets too warm in Continue reading...

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...

That means many of us moms will be scrambling to be ready for school and hectic fall schedules! So, I'm sharing some ideas to get the new school year off to a good start! I love the DIY Homework Station Idea by Must Have Mom! I love how she organized all her kids' homework supplies (like notebooks, crayons, pencils, etc.) to fit neatly on one portable tray. And each school supply has its own container! Genius! My kids like to do their homework on our kitchen table, so Continue reading...

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.
