WE MOVED! | WHEN, WHERE, AND WHY?

Posted on September 28, 2021June 25, 2024 by Megan

To put it simply, we had too much. Too much house, too much yard, too much time and money spent… We try our best to be aware when something is taking too much of our resources, and not just in time and money, but energy, attention, space in our brains, etc. That’s where we were at with our old home. It’s a beautiful home, with a nice yard, lots of space, a great location… and yet, we weren’t happy because we were stretched thin…

REFINISHING OUR DECK | DIY RESTORATION

Posted on September 17, 2021June 25, 2024 by Megan

I know, I know… “Weren’t you finishing your basement?” The answer is- yes. But if you’ve been to any store that sells lumber in the past year, you would know that prices are outrageous. We finished insulating and framing most of the outside walls before we ran out of lumber and decided we should wait…

CLEANING OUR SIDING | MOLD ARMOR REVIEW

Posted on June 13, 2021March 6, 2023 by Megan

The siding on the backside of our house never gets sun and tends to get really grimy with dust, tree pollen, and who knows what else. Shade to spread and organic matter to eat is all mold and mildew need to be happy. This year we let the grime get kind of out of hand…

RESTORING STAINED GROUT | EASY DIY

Posted on May 13, 2021March 6, 2023 by Megan

I cannot tell you how GOOD it feels so good to be back with another easy DIY! So much has happened since January, but also not a whole lot has been accomplished. My fellow parents will understand- we’re mostly just staying afloat around here. I’ve been sharing updates here and there on our basement renovation…

AFFORDABLE KITCHEN ORGANIZERS | AMAZON FINDS

Posted on January 28, 2021March 6, 2023 by Megan

Organizing is really “on trend” right now, which is kind of my dream come true. Bins, baskets, drawers… These are a few of my favorite things. The only problem with trendy things is the inevitable markup. Organizers are so expensive- it can be nearly impossible to make a dent in your project without a major…

5 NORWEX PRODUCTS WORTH BUYING (AN HONEST REVIEW) | PT. 2

Posted on January 23, 2021March 6, 2023 by Megan

Last summer I shared my 5 favorite Norwex products and, as it turns out, a lot of you were curious to find out more! So I’m back at it with another 5 that are newer to my collection but equally worth buying, in my opinion! I do not sell Norwex, I just enjoy sharing products…

REPLACING OUR BASEMENT PATIO DOOR | DIY INSTALL

Posted on August 6, 2020March 6, 2023 by Megan

This DIY project has been a long time coming. We ordered this patio door for our basement (along with the lumber for our mini shed and new basement windows) back in April. It was one of our “bored and in quarantine” impulse buys. Some people buy clothes and gadgets- we buy doors! I should also…

5 IDEAS FOR CLOSET DECLUTTERING AND ORGANIZING

Posted on July 31, 2020March 6, 2023 by Megan

I’ve had the decluttering bug ever since we renovated our coat closet last week. Emptying cabinets, organizing toys, labeling boxes… no storage space is safe. This week I turned my attention to our neglected, cavernous, and dusty bedroom closet. I love to clean and organize, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have areas that get…

DIY PAINTED PILLOW COVER

Posted on July 24, 2020March 6, 2023 by Megan

In my humble opinion- the more pillows, the better. My only beef with pillows is that they can be expensive! Where can a girl find cheap decorative pillows around here?? My other dilemma is that sometimes I’ll get this idea of what I want only to find out that it doesn’t exist. So I had…

RENOVATING AND ORGANIZING OUR COAT CLOSET

Posted on July 21, 2020March 6, 2023 by Megan

Doesn’t every house have a nondescript coat closet? Largely ignored and overly stuffed with junk? We did not have plans to renovate our entryway closet, but as luck would have it, we ended up with a spare closet organizer. A certain pregnant lady lacking her usual brain power ordered the wrong size organizer for the…
