First Day and Last Day of School Questionnaire (free printables)

August 15, 2018 | Leave a Comment

My kids started school today and I’m still in a bit of shock. The summer flew by so fast and not having them here all day feels super weird. It would be magical if my 4 year old wasn’t still home with me… not that I don’t like him, but he is bored out of…

Free Father’s Day Booklet Download

May 31, 2017 | 1 Comment

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…

Kid’s Christmas Card Printable {freebie}

December 16, 2016 | 1 Comment

As a parent, you know there are always people to give cards/gifts to during the holidays that really should come from your kids… teachers, bus drivers, neighborhood friends, babysitters, etc. A “Merry Christmas” directly from the kids seems so much more appropriate than one from their lame mom. So I was on the hunt for…

Free Printable To-Do & Grocery List

January 16, 2015 | Leave a Comment

Continuing on with our theme of getting organized for the new year, I decided I desperately needed a “To-Do” list that actually worked. Something that would give me a place to write down all those little thoughts running through my head each day. I’m SO guilty of not writing things down that need to be…

“But first, coffee” free printable

January 14, 2013 | 1 Comment

Last week I mentioned that I was working on updating my kitchen, and I started with a DIY wooden rack to hold my aprons. I also made this coffee sign to hang underneath my cabinet, right by the coffee pot. I love how it adds some color and dimension to the bland walls and cabinet color (not my choice, since we rent).

DIY pumpkin tee for $1 (No-Sew)

October 22, 2012 | Leave a Comment

We were headed to the pumpkin patch this weekend and I decided at the last minute that I wanted my daughter to wear something festive. She didn’t own anything orange, black, or fall looking, so I ran to the Dollar Tree and picked up a white tee shirt for $1. Then I created my own…

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!

Another to-do checked off my list for spring break Another to-do checked off my list for spring break room makeover!

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!
