This may not be an incredibly helpful tip, but I’ll share it anyways.
Trying to be “green”, I bought the reusable bags to the grocery stores I frequent and then found myself always forgetting to bring them. Now, I keep them in the little pocket in the car door and I remember to […]

Fabric Dryer Sheets

Dryer Sheets
I am completely addicted to these things! I put them in every closet in the house, also under our beds, and in with the towels and sheets. You can put them under the seats of your car too. They make everything smell so clean and fresh. You have to change them out every couple […]

A Label for Everything

In my quest to get things more organized around here, the girls and I cleaned out the buffet in the dining room. I’m sure the normal dining room buffet holds items such as china or crystal, but we store art supplies in ours! Every few months, it turns into a disastrous mess […]

Veggie & Dip Holder

Jami and I found the niftiest little container at the 99 Cent Store. This little container has a section to hold dip inside the container, as well as space to hold veggies, crackers, hot wings, etc. This is all one piece, with the exception of the lids. It’s easy to use, my […]
