Pantry My Bellissima Buddy and I love to visit model homes. We stand in the kitchen and dream. One of the trends we have noticed is the absence of the pantry. What are these builders thinking? I can’t imagine not having a pantry. My pantry not that big, but it offers a ton of storage…
Kitchen Cabinets and Drawers In our house, the kitchen is the heart of the home. How about you? Do you find that people congregate in the kitchen? It is the room I spend most of my time. Organizing the kitchen can be overwhelming, so I am dividing it into bite size chunks. We are going…
Teen Bedroom Do you remember being a teenager? Can you imagine your mom coming in and wanting to organize your room? If I can brag for a moment, Kate had the best attitude. She told me she likes having her room organized. It makes her feel happy to be in her room instead of overwhelmed…
Kid’s Bedroom Let’s jump right into organizing a kid’s room. For some reason organizing a kid’s room causes me great anxiety. I have too many memories of hundreds of tiny poly pocket pieces found all over the bedroom. I must admit tomorrow’s assignment of organizing a teenager’s room may be worse. Pray for me…

Office We don’t actually have an office in our house. We did, that is, before we adopted Sara. It only seemed right to give her a room of her own. And so, our office was displaced for a bit. I found this amazing picture on Pinterest and set my mind to copy it. I made…
Hall Closets Today, the girls and I worked on our hall closets. We have two closets. One is a coat closet and the other a linen closet. They both serve more than one purpose. When you have a small home, you learn quickly how to get creative. We started with the coat closet. We looked…
Entry/Mudroom I haven’t done the count yet to see how many days until Christmas, have you? But before Christmas we have Thanksgiving, one of my favorite holidays. I don’t know if it’s the turkey and cranberries, the fall colors, or the cooler weather, maybe a combination of all of them, I just love the fall. …
Are you ready for the holidays? Can you believe it is already October? As a child, I remember hearing from adults that the older you get the faster time flies. Well, they weren’t kidding!
