Disclosure: I received this product for free to review. I was compensated for my time, but all opinions are my own. Being a part of my son's learning experience is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done. I am constantly surprised by what I am learning with him as well. We have been studying Egypt this fall, and I am reading aloud books that fascinate me. It is so cool how these little lessons carry over to our everyday life, and we can talk about it freely since we are discovering Continue Reading
“LOVE” Wall Art
You know how a Target run can go. I went in for shampoo but then found myself in the lampshade and picture frame aisle. How that happened-I do not know, but I liked it. I found a set of four little white frames for less than $3. I grabbed them, knowing I would find a use for them somehow.

Here is how I did Continue Reading
DIY Pallet Frame {Poster Size}
I have been wanting a rustic, vintage United States map for in our home. We love to travel and are constantly talking about different states and who lives there, what grows there, what its known for, etc. It would make it so easy to be able to point the states out to our kids as we talk.

I knew I wanted to make a cool frame to go with its look, and so once I got my Ryobi Sliding Compound Miter saw to review, I knew it was the perfect project to try Continue Reading
Out of the Box Art Studio {+ a chance to win Summer Art Camp}
I love using my kids' art to decorate our home. I think it is such a special way to celebrate and applaud their creativity while capturing and appreciating this special season of them being little.

Most of the art on this wall my boys created at my favorite local art studio, Out of the Box Art Studio. Have you heard of Continue Reading
My Little Girl’s Bedroom
Now that my little girl has turned two, she is officially a toddler. I have been thinking of all the big changes that will occur in this next year of her life, and I want to press "pause" on life. She will give up her "pass" by choice or by force :). She will get moved to a toddler bed. She will hopefully get potty trained. She will learn so many new words and countless other things. Before much else changed about her little life, I wanted to capture her room as it has been for her "baby Continue Reading
