I love giving dad something sentimental from the kids for Father’s Day. There’s no better time of year to remind him just how special and loved he is. If you look around, there are plenty of free downloads on the web for Father’s Day, but this year I wanted something different that I hadn’t done or seen in…

Valentines Day Surprises for your Significant other

February 9, 2016 | Leave a Comment

I’m a romantic at heart, and as a woman, I love being spoiled. Also – I’m not ashamed to admit – I prefer that Valentine’s Day be all about me. Me getting diamonds. Me getting flowers. Me getting chocolates. Ok, ok, I care about my husband and his feelings too. Valentine’s Day is always a…

Father’s Day! Time again to celebrate our amazing husbands who also happen to be amazing fathers. I don’t know about you, but as I start to plan my gifts for the Mr. every year, I tend to go a little overboard. I get what I refer to as “christmas for the kids syndrome” where I…

DIY Father’s Day gift for Papa

June 16, 2015 | Leave a Comment

I am sure we aren’t the only ones who lovingly refer to our grandpas as “Papa.” I went through a phase of calling my own dad “Papa” because I watched a little too much “Little House on the Prairie” growing up… but that’s neither here nor there. Now my kids call their grandpas “Papa,” which…

Gifts for Him {Valentine’s Day Edition}

February 5, 2015 | Leave a Comment

With a little over a week left before Valentine’s Day, it’s time to place your orders for the mister in your life before time runs out. I’m not a fan of over-the-top cheesy gifts (neither is my husband), so I usually go with something manly instead. Unless, of course, we are talking about heart-print boxers,…

This year for Father’s Day, I wanted to give the Mr. something that would help him know just how loved he is, and something that would remind him of his last day as a Father of two (we were induced with Graham the day after Father’s Day).  So when I decided to do one of…

Father’s Day gift ideas { 2013 edition }

June 10, 2013 | Leave a Comment

Still stumped on what to get dad for Father’s Day? You would think it would be easy, but sometimes coming up with the perfect gift for a man can drive me nuts. I always want to come up with something special, and I usually overthink it; which then leads to procrastination… which is why I have yet to get anything for my husband for Father’s Day. Oops.

So I gathered up some ideas for items that I know he would like. I’m pretty sure that he would be thrilled with any of these picks, so I’m not sure why I make it so hard on myself.

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!

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. ⚽
