    June declutter club

    Ooh I can jump in for once!! I cleared out the bottom section of my pantry. It’s where I keep my tablecloths and other large items. I discovered a whole shelf of Christmas mugs I haven’t used in years as well as some decorations! I also took out about a million plastic forks and cups and...

    WEEK 2: Living room and Questions Week

    The living room is done! I still need to decorate my tree for Thanksgiving but I have to find where the middle boy put my fall ornaments. I am decorating simply but I like it.

    CIJ Day 21- Put It Under the Tree

    Great ideas! I used to always make Christmas breakfast baskets for our siblings. As their families grew it got overwhelming but we are all empty nesters now so it might be time to bring the tradition back!

    CIJ Day 19- Put it Under the Tree

    I have to confess I have "regifted" before. I have a particular family member that seems to draw my name every year and has no clue what my style is, even though they are in my home often. I do the smile and thank you bit, as mentioned, then add it to my stash to gift someone else with! It...

    Fall 2022

    They have super cute stuff this year. Our Dollar Tree has a "super DT" section where things are $3-5 but the quality is top notch-at least so far.

    CIJ- Day 18 Put it Under the Tree

    My main tree goes in a galvanized wash tub when we have a live tree. Lately, I've used a slim faux tree that i just drape a chenille throw around the base of. I would like to make a ruched one this year.

    CIJ Day 14 - Put it On The Tree

    Oh and I also have a jingle bell collection that I would hang on a 6 foot tree in the kitchen. If little fingers did touch it, the jingle bells gave them away! I loved that tree. I might do it again this year. But I have no more little fingers to jingle it, just big men!!!
