I’m here, I’m here!! I’ve completely fallen off the blog wagon for a couple of weeks. Just had way too much going on. Weekend sports, Izzy’s birthday party, my mom came in for a visit, and tackling a few belated projects. I get my love of DIY from my mom, so she is always game for projects when she visits.
Changes are a brewing in Izzy’s room. The kid clutter is real. My mom helped her with a small purge (basically empty gum wrappers and scrap paper), but there is still so much left over that she has an attachment too. I got sick and tired of seeing knick knacks, shopkins, and emoji toys covering every square inch of the top of her dresser. This clean dresser top lasted all of one day. We needed shelving and more storage options.
I took down the book ledges. While I love having books on display like this, it was no longer practical. As she got older her books changed from large picture books to smaller chapter books. Ledges aren’t ideal for that.

This party didn’t really have…
I Think I’ve Been Replaced!
My sweet little Izzy has taken to another for snuggle time on the couch. Daddy brought home the largest bear I have ever seen for Izzy’s Valentine’s gift. She LOVES Teddy Bear. Now as soon as she gets up in the morning she asks to sit in Teddy Bear’s lap. It’s pretty darn cute 🙂…
Small Home Command Center Makeover
I shared this small home command center makeover on my Instagram Stories, but thought I would share it here as well. It’s such a tight space that I couldn’t take photos with my big camera so iPhone photos will have to do. This was a quick little project, but one that makes a big difference…
getting back to it slowly
I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and New Years! It has been so hard to get back into a rhythm again! I pulled a great one on Monday. Got Izzy ready for school and then went to pick up her buddy for carpool. No buddy. Turns out no school. Felt like an idiot….
Flea Market Chandelier
I found this great chandelier at the flea market a couple of months back. I loved her curves and I even loved her aged, chippy, gold color. I’ve been wanting to put a candelabra over our bathtub for a while and thought she would be perfection. First, I pulled out the plastic covers and unscrewed…

The bookcase came out great Shelley! Tutorial? I have the Critter too….I like it for small projects and for keeping paint stored in jars after spraying!
