My Tiny Home Obsession…

July 12, 2019

I absolutely LOVE tiny homes. I’m totally obsessed with them! I love the multifunctional layouts and unique storage each home has and I often search tiny home designs for inspiration and multifunctional pieces. Even my outdoor coffee table came from a tiny home design, as I needed it to also function as a dining table. While the hubs and I…

The Real Reason Decluttering Does Not Work

July 5, 2019

A couple weeks ago I posted an article titled “Why You Don’t Need to Buy Storage Containers to Keep You Organized.” You can go read the article if you missed it, but I talked about how fancy storage containers don’t keep you organized. You need to actually declutter your possessions before trying to organize them. However, I might have lied…

Our Bathroom Refresh

June 14, 2019

Earlier this week the hubs and I completed our bathroom “remodel”. Within the last year we suspected our bathroom vent fan was not working. Moisture seemed to accumulate in the bathroom on the walls and mirror and the vent fan didn’t appear to be removing any of it. We left the window open when the weather allowed for it, but…

Embracing the Calm

May 10, 2019

Everyone who knows me, knows I’m a home-body. I’ve got JOMO. If you haven’t heard the term before, JOMO stands for the “joy of missing out”. It’s not that I don’t love to travel or go out and do things. I absolutely love to travel and explore new places. I also enjoy shopping (when I’m in the mood to) and…

Analysis Paralysis…

April 19, 2019

About a month ago the hubs and I went on a vacation to Tulum, Mexico. We were definitely in need of a vacation and invited the warm weather and relaxation. When we returned we were met with bipolar weather (warm days as high as 60 degrees and others where it was 30 degrees and snowing). I for sure thought that…
