The PicCollage App and HP Help Create Memories
Last year I heard from a friend who is pretty tech savvy about this really cool app that lets you create fun collages from your photographs. I was looking for an easy way to create cards and quotes from photographs I had taken. The PicCollage app is really easy to use and this is coming from someone not particularly that tech savvy! I made this one from a day at the beach. There are over 100 million people who use PicCollage to combine photos, Youtube videos, funky fonts, sassy stickers and cute cutouts to create the prettiest collages you’ll ever see on a mobile device. They have stickers from Sanrio and LA-based independent designer, Sara…

Dwell :: House Tour in Orange County
We had a chance to take a tour of the lovely Justine’s home. She and her family moved into this neighborhood about two years ago but says she is still looking to do more things in the house. I think it looks fabulous and love all the little touches that just say home. You can tell a lot of thought went into the design of the home while keeping in mind her two adorable twins and husband. Actually, she said her husband, Mike, had some input into the home décor, like the cool Buddha statue in the living room and superhero books in their new built-in, but most of the design comes…

4 Summer Science Projects to do with the Kids
We are well into summer now, but that doesn’t mean we’ve stopped learning. In fact we’re still doing quite a lot – I just don’t call it “school”. Instead I just ask the kids if they want to do an activity with mommy and they’re sold. Science is the favorite subject in my house so we are doing a lot of mini-experiments and crafty projects that allow me to slip some scientific education into the day. We’ve dyed celery, made a seashell display box, and skinned an onion to see plant cells. Today we started a compost experiment using one of the small plastic fruit containers and some of the…

Day Seven :: Get Your Home Decluttered in 28 Days
(Photo: Yasuyoshi Chiba/Getty Images) Today let’s work on our fridges! Yay! No? I get it but you will be sighing a big Ahhh after you finish clearing it out. I don’t know if you can hear my sigh of relief but I have been saying it all morning – and even inspected my “new” and clean fridge a couple times! One of things the declutter experts say is don’t go out and buy containers, organizers, etc., until you have cleared away most of the clutter. That way, once things have been cleared out, donated, given away, or sold, you will know what you really need and don’t have…
