Vacuum Therapy — it's a thing
This post is sponsored by Samsung We moved out of our Idaho house last week and after everything was packed in the truck and it drove away, and it was just us--the house felt so different. A lot less like us, to be honest. We scheduled cleaners to come and deep clean the entire house […]

A Video Tour inside our Newly Organized Pantry
Last week we shared our freshly painted and organized pantry and this week, we thought it would be fun to give a little video tour.

How We Organized the Fullmer's Kitchen Cabinets + A Video Tour Inside!
This post is sponsored by Lowe's A kitchen can be beautiful, but it's not really functional until it's organized.

All My Vacuums
This post is sponsored by eBay I have 5 vacuums (technically 4, since we lost our Shark in the fire) but choosing a favorite would be like choosing a favorite child (jk, I totally have a favorite vacuum). But I really love them all for different reasons. Since we have talked a lot about vacuums […]

My 5 Closet Rules + Spring Wardrobe Favorites
When we finished our closet renovation last year, and many times since, I get asked, "But are these all of your clothes and shoes?" And I give an enthusiastic YES! There's no hidden dresser or extra clothes stashed anywhere. It's not a little bit of clothes by any means but I'm also not a fashion guru (I […]

Ranking all the Mrs. Meyer's Scents
This post is sponsored by Grove Collaborative. Everyone loves Mrs. Meyers--heck, I even saw it at a few Favorite Things parties over the holidays. We use the multi-surface spray daily and religiously for everything from cleaning our counters and high chair to cleaning bathrooms. And sometimes I just spray it in the air before company […]

A Task a Day to Get Your House Completely Holiday Ready by Thanksgiving
This post is sponsored by eBay Why isn't Fall cleaning more of a thing? There's so much emphasis around Spring Cleaning, but for me, the urgency, appreciation and desire for a deep cleaned house comes stronger in the fall. With all the holidays and house guests right around the corner, I love to buckle down […]

How We Keep Our Floors Clean with A Big, Hairy Dog (and 3 little kids)
This post is sponsored by BISSELL We get a lot of questions about how we keep our home clean with a big, hairy dog like our sweet Willow romping around. I usually smile and say, "We just love her more than we hate the hair."--which is, I mean, best practice. But the truth is, we […]

How We Keep our Outdoor Furniture Clean
Since we've been sharing a few sneak peeks of our deck lately (we've added a few more pieces and will be sharing the full reveal next week), the number one question we are getting on Instagram right now is how we keep our outdoor sofas clean. They all are very light white or ivory, and while that […]

How We Keep Our Home Clean with a Big, Hairy Dog
Charly has been a member of our family for over three years now and we can't imagine this home without her. I'm not going to lie, having never had a dog before, it took me a couple weeks to get used to her and that hair and drool (I actually lost my appetite for 9 days […]

A Peek Into our Toy Storage in the Playroom
We've had our toy storage for a couple months now (in their proper spot for a few weeks) so I figured it was high time I show them off and give you an initial review. And since we recently hung this large canvas print from Anewall above the dressers, this portion of the room is […]

An Unexpected Source For Playroom Storage + A High/Low Option!
Rug | Pouf | Chairs | Table | Lights Not much has changed visually since the last playroom update. We moved the television up to our bedroom (bliss!): And we smashed that outdated mantle off of the fireplace. So now things are looking worse, as they tend to do with renovations. But!

Exterior Maintenance: Clean and Brighten those Window Wells
When the rain came down and the flood came up earlier this summer, we stayed nearly dry and we are so grateful. Greta's room was the only room that had some water damage so we moved her room up on our list. We fixed some drywall under her window, replaced carpet pad and recently tackled […]

Tips For Cleaning Up Your Exterior
My sweet parents are in town for a few days helping us clean up a few things outside. They are landscaping gurus and work horses and the amount of yard work we got done yesterday is more than we've done in probably two years. Our exterior checklist has changed drastically. We went from prepping for […]

Where Are All Of the T-O-Y-S!?
There is one question--maybe even a concern--that we have been getting a lot of lately: Where are all of Greta's toys?! Sometimes it is out of genuine curiosity and sometimes it is a little condescending, but either way it shows up in some form (my inbox, facebook, a comment, instgram, etc.) at least once a […]

A House Purge.
This week's big project is getting ready for our yard sale on Saturday morning, and we aren't holding back. Our last (and only other) yard sale was in March of 2011 before we closed on this house. It was cold, but successful and somehow we still managed to move from a two bedroom apartment and […]
