Closet Solutions ~ How to Organize Sweaters

I’m sharing a very creative closet organization solution for those of us who don’t have a lot of closet space for things like sweaters, pants, etc. You won’t believe how easy it is to find the space you need! A couple months ago I received this closet organization problem from one of my readers: Do you have any good ideas on how to organize sweaters? I don’t like to hang them up because they lose their shape and they aren’t in a drawer because I don’t have the closet space. I currently have them folded in a box, but they… Read More

How to Organize your Gift Giving (free printable)

Hey y’all! It’s Judy over from Keepin’ Home! I wanted to share with you how I manage to give awesome gifts on the cheap. Money is tight so buying gifts in advance really helps out a family budget. I’ve been able to throw together an entire diaper bag (wipes, small books, teething toys, pacifier, blanket, the bag itself, and more) for all under $25.00. Not too shabby, right? The real trick of this whole buying-gifts-in-advance is how you organize them and where you store them. Haven’t you ever bought the best gift for a loved one and 3 months after… Read More

Princess Crowns for a Princess Party

Today my sweet little girl is turning 3!!!     I can’t believe it’s already been three years.     I wish I could freeze her at this age because she is so fun; lots of dressing up, lots of acting out scenes from movies and her mind is amazing, absorbing every piece of information she come across.  She is also so loving, telling me she loves me all the time.     She is also hilarious.  Her personality is definitley showing through, and I love it!   This is her in my “bride dress”. 🙂   In honor of… Read More

MirrorMate Review

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Because I love you all so much I have a great giveaway for you today!!!  And let me tell you, I am so excited about this review and giveaway!!!  I don’t know about you but I really hate builder grade anything.  Builder grade flooring, countertops, trim and mirrors, they’re all usually pretty terrible.  My husband and I built our first house so there was nothing “builder grade” about it, but when we moved into town and purchased this older home, most of it was builder grade, including the bathroom mirrors.   And then one day I… Read More
