Hello there! Okay so I know you might not be thinking about organizing right now but come January I know you’ll be ready to jump right in with both feet. After the holidays you will be fed up with the messes and the piles and looking to do a clean sweep. “Get Organized” is a super popular resolution each year with so many people. But without a plan those good intentions can quickly go off the rails. So a plan of action is highly recommended and I’ve got just what you need to help you conquer all that chaos and clutter in January. It’s a one week “Organize Like a Boss” challenge, hosted by Sara ..read more

Hey there! So I’m popping in here to NOT give you an organizing assignment. You’re welcome. Listen December is busy, I get it. I can’t imagine too many people have time on their hands to be organizing drawers and closets right now. Instead you may be hanging out with friends and family more (that’s good!) and looking for a fun game to play.  Well this post has just what you need. The Christmas Gift Swap game (with free printables!) is a fresh take on the old gift exchange game. I’ve been waiting to do this game with my girlfriends this year but unfortunately we still have restrictions in ..read more

Welcome to my Nov/Dec 2021 Favorites! Hello! Can you believe we are well into December already? Instead of simply doing a favorites list of last month, I’m going to combine and share my Nov/Dec 2021 favorites into one post. At this time of the year I hope you aren’t feeling stress but instead I pray that you are able to savor the season and take things slow. Not always easy that is for sure. That’s why I’m always hesitant to post more organizing projects in December. I hardly ever do because the last thing I want to do is stress people out by suggesting you do more on your already full plate ..read more

Hello! Each year I like to make a little something crafty for my gal pals for Christmas. I wouldn’t call myself a particularly crafty person at all but I do like to try and use that side of my brain once and awhile. Often I make ornaments like these adorable sleighs I made a couple of years ago. But last year I decided to switch things up and make Homemade Vanilla Extract instead. I found an awesome tutorial on Pinterest (where else?) and decided it looked easy enough even for me to do. And thankfully it was super easy and they packaged up so beautifully too. So I took a bunch of photos last y ..read more

Hi there! Christmas is right around the corner and to help you avoid the stress that comes with the holiday season I’m sharing once again some of my tried and true tips for a simplified organized Christmas. You’ll be happy to know though that I’m not here to simply tell you to scale back and just do less because that is hard when there are fun traditions to do, happy events to attend and exciting gifts to buy. Of course this may be something to consider if you find yourself doing these things out of obligation. However even then this can be tricky. For example, my daughter jokes with me that s ..read more
