100 Easter basket filler ideas for kids

March 22, 2017 | 1 Comment

Finding Easter basket fillers can sometimes be challenging; not only do they have to be items small enough to fit inside a basket, but I also don’t like spending an arm and a leg on them. I try to include a compilation of things that my children both want and need, while still making it something special and different each year.

That’s a lot of thinking to put into one little basket…

{ note: I wanted to post this earlier this week, but my internet provider decided to turn off my internet on Wednesday… hooray! So here I sit at a coffee shop the day before Easter and I realize that it may be a little late to shop for Easter dresses, but shoot – it’s never…

DIY Easter bunny treats and gifts

April 4, 2014 | Leave a Comment

Every Easter I love giving small gifts to family and friends. In the past, I’ve given away little Easter baskets, DIY beanbag chicks and bunny tails (marshmallows), and this year I was inspired by all the cute bunny treat bags and gifts that I’ve come across. Who knew you could make an apple look like a bunny?

I have a feeling Easter will be here before we know it. I am hoping to be on top of it this year and start gathering Easter basket goodies now and prepping Easter cards, but good intentions aren’t always enough… In any event, I did get a new Easter card up in my Etsy shop that would be perfect to showcase your little bunnies:

Easter madness

April 1, 2013 | Leave a Comment

Holidays are always fun, but they are equally exhausting! Now that I have kids, I try to be “Mama Pinterest” and do all kinds of activities with them, which makes it even more hectic.

Despite the madness, I absolutely love seeing them experience new things and enjoy doing them. I know these are the memories we will all cherish when they are grown and gone from home (Oh goodness, why am I heading down that road? I’m about to ugly cry, so I need to change the subject…)

DIY frugal, shabby chic Easter centerpiece

March 28, 2013 | Leave a Comment

I have family coming over for Easter and I own zero Easter decorations. I had so many hopes of creating some DIY decorations this year, but between work and Blissdom, it just didn’t happen. I did, however, manage to come up with a shabby-chic DIY centerpiece using items from Target and some trash… haha. I’m not joking.

Free “Easter Egg Hunt” printable signs

March 27, 2013 | Leave a Comment

I can’t believe Easter is only a few days away. I feel so unprepared! I have eggs to dye, baskets to finish filling, and a house to decorate before my family comes over on Easter Sunday… I should probably get started.

I did, at least, create some signs for the Easter Egg Hunt I’m having on Saturday. At least that’s one thing I can check off the list.

I’m sure you’ve got some egg hunts coming your way too. You can download my Easter Egg Hunt signs for free below to help all those egg-seekers find the starting point!

I get it. It's a little weird. But the girls I've I get it. It's a little weird.
But the girls I've seen do it best, look adorable.

I think it looks best with an oversized tee or sweatshirt, tennies or slides, and a small crossbody bag.

You can't argue with comfort.

For the record, these are women's sleep shorts that I've had a couple of years from Old Navy. If you buy actual men's boxers, you might consider sewing up the pee pocket 😜

Don't spend a lot on this trend; these shorts are made from the thinnest of fabric and shouldn't cost much. Don't be fooled by a retailer that wants you to spend just because it's trendy.

But if you see some cute boxers and want to give it a go - then do! Bonus - if/when the trend ends, you'll have pajamas on the ready 👏

It's solid weekend wear, but I'm not going out to dinner in it...

Another project down in my son's room! I knew I w Another project down in my son's room!

I knew I wanted some sort of built-in feature in this bedroom, but it was hard to figure out what, because we turned it into an active space where he could run and play and needed a lot of room.

So I settled on a built-in bookcase with the slatted design feature, which I'm in love with!

The best part about it is that if he ever decides to upgrade his bed, the space will also accommodate a full or queen size bed going in the opposite direction. It adds so much interest to this room and hopefully will be here for a long time!

One of the things I love most about DIY projects is figuring out how to make something - it's like a giant puzzle. I saw photos of these slotted wall room dividers on Pinterest and just figured it out as I went. All in all, I had very few hiccups and it only took me a few hours to put together. I think I only cursed once?!? And so I call that an extreme DIY win...

Now that the sports wall, the climbing wall, and the built-in feature are complete, the last thing to do in here is some additional painting. I'm thinking of using a contrasting blue color for the closet doors and back side of the built-in, and perhaps trimming out the window with it as well. Then I need to switch out the light for a fan and this.room.is done 🙌

Details: I used two IKEA billy bookshelves, screwed together and secured to the wall. Then wrapped them in white oak plywood. I ripped down 2x4s into 1.5x1.5" square dowels (heavily sanded!) and used pocket holes on the back side of each to secure to the bookshelf and the 1x4 in the ceiling. It's very sturdy!

This climbing wall took half a day and cost under This climbing wall took half a day and cost under $100!

We are lucky enough to have 13' ceilings in our bedrooms, so a climbing wall seemed to make sense in my son's room as we worked on the remodel.

He is a super active kid with #ADHD, so his room redo has involved lots of activity spaces! Go back in my reels to see past projects and follow to see me finish this up!

I added very subtle striping to the wall to mimic a soccer field and keep things classy. ⚽

Stick around to see the next project - a climbing wall!
