DIY TRIANGLE ART

When I was decorating the nursery,  I wanted a neutral art wall that my daughter will not outgrow.  In one of my searches, I came across a triangle art 'Mountain' by concretehoney in Etsy.  I recreated this art using neutral colors (dark gray and light gray) but on a much bigger scale. ...

HOW TO STORE BABY'S NEW CLOTHES

This is a long over due post (after all, my baby is now 2 months old!) on how to organize baby clothes for storage.  After my baby showers, I was faced with the dilemma of figuring out how to store the clothes I got for my daughter.  I have to confess that before I got pregnant, I didn't know that baby clothes were sized by month --- NB, 0-3, 3-6, etc.  I was confused on how some...

Welcome to my world! My husband and I have a no shoe policy at home so we take our shoes off as soon as we enter our apartment.  We are pretty good at making sure we don't bring in the outside dirt, but we're...

MAKE COOKING LESS MESSY

I'm not much of a cook, but when I do cook I tend to be very messy... (spills on the counter, flying chopped garlic, vegetable stalks on the floor, unwashed plates and bowls), I finally figured out a way to  make my life a little bit easier.  On the Rachel Ray's show, she uses a bowl to put all the "trash" in as she preps her ingredients; instead of using a bowl, I use a plastic...
