I found it tough to have 3 kids, and no backyard to play in when they are entirely used to spending so much time…
Months ago we started the process of a backyard renovation in the form of a new deck, a long overdue task which we had discussed for years. First we had to decide exactly what we wanted, interview contractors, choose the one to do it, and then wait for mother nature to agree with us….
For the longest time, our office was basically in the storage/spare room, in the basement of our house. In that room sat our first computer desk, plain with a wood top and metal legs that had sharp edges. I recall cursing at this desk more than loving it, since I continually would cut myself…
Need Disney Kids Bedroom Ideas? I’ve been boasting a lot about the incredible All Star Vacation Home that myself and my family stayed in while in Florida. One of the many reasons why it made such a lasting impression and has left us wanting to visit again soon, is because there isn’t one detail that is…
Before the introduction to the Delta Faucet Touch2O Faucet, I wuld have never put too much thought into different faucets. I guess I used to think they were all created equal – you know, water comes out. It was after reviewing the touch kitchen faucet, that I realized this was not the case. Ease, convenient,…

Are you looking to Transition from Baby Room to a Toddler Room? Decorating baby and toddler rooms can be daunting – there are so many choices in themes, colors and looks. Each time I set out to decorate my childrens’ rooms, I started with the bedding. I found a set that I loved and picked the…
In a previous Rubbermaid Shed Review post I told you that I was in the process of also doing a Rubbermaid Garage Makeover, a little organizing thanks to the Rubbermaid FastTrack Garage Organization System. After many long months of my garage being in utter and total chaos {no exaggeration there}, it is finally complete and…
Before getting to work on my garage makeover with Rubbermaid, I had to get my Rubbermaid Roughneck Shed set up, and all the yard equipment and gardening supplies out of the way. This project in itself took a while to start, thanks a lovely Alberta Spring snowstorm followed by weeks of rain. So, keep in…
This Spring my family was offered a Garage Makeover from Rubbermaid, with Rubbermaid Roughneck Sheds. Seeing the state of our garage and knowing that it could use some organization, I was excited for this adventure. Since that time, we have been busy working with Rubbermaid on the plans to organize our garage. After all,…
I really love the trend and style of vinyl lettering and wall art. I love the fact that you can easily decorate any room, and then remove it just the same. Yet, when it comes to my kids’ rooms, I wasn’t impressed by the choices of wall art found in retail outlets. Then I came…
