Things I am loving lately for Valentine’s Day

Things I am loving lately for Valentine’s Day

Now that Valentine's Day is a week away, I'm going to continue with the Valentine's Day theme and share a few finds that I have been loving lately. All of these would make fun and unique Valentine's Day gifts that are not your typical chocolate this and candy that (though there are a couple of chocolate recipes).

Valentine’s Card Decorating Party

Valentine’s Card Decorating Party

If you haven't noticed by now, I love Valentine's Day. While that hasn't always been the case during my adult life, having kids has really made me appreciate how even a small effort goes a long way.

My Experience with Peel and Stick Wallpaper + Tips and Tricks

My Experience with Peel and Stick Wallpaper + Tips and Tricks

Well I did it! After living with white walls for a little over a year, I decided to add some color back into our lives. Actually a lot of color. Bright green herringbone wallpaper to be more precise. To achieve this I used the temporary hair dye of the design world: inexpensive peel and stick wallpaper from Amazon. It's a fun way to spruce up your home without making a long-term commitment.

About me

Hi! I'm Lauren. Welcome to my blog, where I write about DIY projects, home decor, and decorating on a budget. With 3 kids under the age of 5, my house not always as neat in real life as it looks on the blog, but I find a way to embrace (and organize) the chaos.
