Makeover Your Rooms With An Affordable Budget with Easy Decorating

Image
I have so many plans once I have a little time at home without Broxton here..  Please do not get me wrong, I have loved having him here with me and having the opportunity to be a stay at home mom... but, it will be nice to have a couple hours at the house to be more productive! I had the chance to review a bookazine called Easy Decorating. (You can purchase it from Barnes and Noble for your Nook for only $9.99) It was full of so many ideas that are sure to make your house look awesome.. The best part?  They are easy and affordable ideas! Photo Credit: Hearst Magazine This concept was to take wallpaper and decorate.  You can cover shoe boxes with the wallpaper..  If you look closely at the picture... You notice that the boxes, picture frames and trash can are all the same!  Yes, wallpaper covered! How cute and inexpensive is that?! This book teaches you about color, patterns, prints and more... I really enjoyed flipping through it gett...

We were busy... With the Perfect Picture Hanger

Image
I don't know about you, but I get so frustrated when I try to hang a picture and it is all weird and not straight. I get so mad and frustrated, that is why normally Marc hangs them up. Then, he can worry about fixing it to make it right.... I know, I shouldn't put it off on him, but he gets it right better than I do! I was so excited to hear about The Perfect Picture Hanger . It is so easy! You just put your nail in. Then place the PPH (Perfect Picture Hanger) on the nail. It is a little plastic disc with grooves on it. You then rotate the PPH to the correct placement that works for your photo. Watch this short video to see exactly what I mean: We hung up a couple pictures in Broxton's room... and since it was so easy, we ended up hanging more up in the hallway. Not to mention we were in the groove of it all, we ended up hanging a few things in the boys room! Normally, we get frustrated and give up... not this time!!!! For less than $10, it is worth it... You get ...

If you love art at all, you really should head over to the Paper Scissors Rock website and have a look around! Pamela Corwin is the artist and she is based out of Olympia, Washington. Using acrylics and watercolor, she paints amazing works and then uses her artwork for other products that are great!!! Paper Scissors Rock carries: *Nightlights *Alarm Clocks *Clocks (small and large) *Bookmarks *Greeting Cards *Magnets I started looking around and I really had a hard time narrowing it down! For Broxton's room, we went with the SailBoat Alarm Clock! Adorable! No, Broxton doesn't wake up to an alarm clock yet, but it is a cute addition to his "transportation" themed room! I just love the second hand!!!! (All of their alarm clocks have the floating second hand with cute little images! From Las Vegas with Dice, Flowers with bees... They are just too cute!) We also got a sunflower night light. I love sunflowers.. As long as I can remember, they have just alwa...

Name Frame - Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, I have been working on redecorating Broxton's room. I knew I wanted a "transportation theme" and it was going to be more of Reds and Blues. Yes, a bit of Red, White and Blue for you! Well, I was so happy when I was able to work in hosting a review and giveaway for Name Frame . This site is so easy to use and navigate... That can be a good thing, or a bad thing... The good thing? It was super easy to order... Bad thing? Now, I want to order more and more! Let me tell you about Name Frame. You start off and enter the name you want to do. Of course, we did Broxton... but you can do anything.. Love, Happiness, Family, your last name... Whatever you want... As long as it is 9 letters or less. You can even choose uppercase or lowercase letters. Next up, picking the font. They have 5 to choose from and they are all great! ( I think we went with the SIMPLE font.. Don't quote me on it, but I believe that is right.) After that, you pick your frame. We went with ...
