Day Five :: Get Your Home Decluttered in 28 Days
Next in our Home Challenge of de-cluttering and redecorating in 28 days (on a dime) is a space we all spend a lot of time in – our living area. I mentioned that I had some friends come by to help me reorganize this space to give it a more open feeling. If you have a friend or two who could help you reorganize this space ask them for some help! I was really surprised at the suggestions they made and I would not have thought to place chairs, vases, etc., where they moved them to – but it really made a difference to how the room…

Day Four :: Get Your Home Decluttered in 28 Days
Okay, we have tackled the front entryway outside and inside, and our laundry room. But you can take your time and take more than a day or two (or week) to tackle each room. You know what needs to get done in your house so take your time – we are just making suggestions. But summertime is the perfect time to take advantage of the nice weather and get things in your home the way you have visualized (for me it has been months and months!). Especially if the kids are in school (mine went back early) or are in summer camps – this can help free up some of your…

Day Three :: Get Your Home Decluttered in 28 Days
Image courtesy of @Disney August 4th, 2014 “Find inspiration all around you from doorknobs to clocks to everything between” ~ @Disney This is so true! You can find inspiration to redecorate (and declutter) your house just about anywhere! I think that is why we all love Pinterest so much – there is so much to look at and get inspired by. I have a board just for things I dream about having – like a Hans Wegner Wishbone Chair or Eames Lounge Chair! A girl can dream! Today let’s work on the room that we usually don’t like going into – probably because we do a “chore” in there most every day. …

Day One :: Get Your Home Decluttered in 28 Days
A few weeks back I had a friend come by who helped me rearrange my living area to be more open and inviting. She brought along a good friend of hers, Paul, who was visiting with his family from Ireland. She had told he had a knack for visualizing spaces and offered to help! I was game as I had wanted to rearrange our living area but didn’t know where to start. As they both set in to rearrange our living space, I started to look at our home with new eyes. He moved the table that we had set up for my daughter to use and play her LEGO’s on (yes, the container remained in our…

DIY Ideas for an Awesome Minecraft Party!
Each year my daughter and I talk about what type of theme she wants to have for her upcoming birthday party. Granted, we usually talk about the theme she wants right after her last party so we can prepare and think about it all year long! Yes, we get very excited about these parties and I have found Pinterest to be such a great resource. When she told me she wanted to have a Minecraft theme I set up a board, Kate’s 8th Minecraft Party, on Pinterest so I could pin all the fun ideas I came across on Pinterest throughout the year. About three weeks ago, she…

Tips for Delicious Gluten-Free Treats
As a society, we love our gluten. If a product is labelled ‘gluten-free’, it’s generally an indication that we should leave it on the shelf and go for the option with actual taste. What most people don’t realise, however, is the world of healthy and tasty options presented by gluten-free foods. Over the years, coeliacs and people with other food intolerances have experimented with all sorts of ingredients that you wouldn’t believe. The result is an entire culinary range that can please even the most finicky of palates, to the point where you often can’t even tell the difference! Looking Out for Gluten Gluten can be found…
