Spring Cleaning, Decluttering, and Simplifying

Girl Room

One of my favorite blogs, Simple Mom, is hosting a 4 week "Project Simplify" link-up.  There are 4 different areas to tackle and you can interpret them any way you want.  I actually took part in the Spring Cleaning challenge from Simple Mom back in 2009 when we were still living with my parents.  I'm so glad to jump back on board this year!  My home and my soul both needed a good declutter and cleanse. It worked out perfectly that our hall closet was completely emptied out when this … [Read more...]

CSN Stores–Fun Rugs Fun Shags Review (Nursery)

I have been blessed to work with CSN Stores several times and have been thrilled each time.  I have been able to add items to Bella’s nursery that I otherwise would have probably not been able to.  I’m sure you remember the chandelier from EveryChandelier.com, one of their over 200 stores.  This go around, I opted for a super cute rug from CSN Stores.    This pink shag rug was just what I was looking for and super affordable at only $58 for the 3’3” x 4’10” … [Read more...]

Bella’s Bright, Fabulous, & Funky Nursery (Part 1)

Or the alternate name for this post: the longest blog post in history.   On second thought, I am going to make this into more than one post.  It was just too long to post it all at once!

EveryChandelier.com Review (Nursery)

Bella’s nursery is coming along well.  After decorating a little boys room for the past two years, I am enjoying bringing in cute details.  A few words that come to mind when I think of how I want the room to turn out are bright, spunky, and playful.  One thing I knew I had to have from the beginning was a new light fixture- preferably a chandelier.  I had planned to buy a cheap one at a thrift store and fix it up, but when CSN stores asked me to review one of their items, I know just what … [Read more...]
