It’s September which means the start of one thing: rushed weeknight dinners. Am I right? Whether it’s an onslaught of homework and studying, another sports practice, or church and youth group commitments, weeknights are often rushed. With five kids in our house, we have a full calendar and that’s why menu planning and quick {preferably […]

7 Bread Machine Recipes
I’m so happy to have a working bread machine again and I’ve had lots of fun experimenting with different bread machine recipes.

A Painting Party
Tate is officially four and we celebrated last weekend with a colorful painting party! Tate had such a great time and the party was bright and fun with lots of DIY details. I hung a large number four made from paint swatches on the front door {inspiration found here} … … and greeted guests with […]
DIY Mermaid Tail Towels
These DIY mermaid tail towels are part of a sponsored post for Collective Bias® #cbias. It’s still really hot in Texas and our pool will be open for another month or two so I planned a fun under the sea sister’s evening for my two younger girls. To add to the fun, I sewed mermaid tail towels […]
Pom-Poms! {A Book Review}
Quirk Books provided me with a copy of Pom-Poms! but all opinions are my own. I love the pom pom trend so I was excited when I found this book in my mailbox: Pom-Poms! 25 Awesomely Fluffy Projects. A whole book devoted to pom poms? How fun is that? This colorful book shares a few […]
A Painted Birthday Shirt

Peanut Butter Bread Recipe for the Bread Machine

I created this back to school lunch box packing station as part of a sponsored post for Collective Bias® #cbias. My kids were so excited to get back to school but I have to tell you that I’ve been dreading one thing about a new school year: packing school lunches. I hate it. I have […]
Painted Chalkboard Door
I’ve got some fun new wall decor in my kitchen that’s right up my repurposing alley: a painted chalkboard door. When we ripped the desk out during our kitchen makeover, we were left with a long, very blank wall. It held our Scripture memory board but that frame suddenly looked way too small for the […]
Wrapping Up August
August is almost over and before it ends, let’s take a quick look back at some of the creative project highlights from the month. In August, I made a shark backdrop and photo prop and then used it at a shark pool party for the twins, shared a rainbow Fla-Vor-Ice buffet … … served peanut […]

My two younger girls share a room which means they also share a closet. It’s a fairly large walk-in closet but it still tends to get a bit crowded and I’m always looking for closet organization ideas. I’m about to do a big overhaul of their closet space and I thought I’d share some of […]
