Organizing Challenge and Printable- Organizing By Numbers
Happy Monday! I took Sunday completely off, even deleted Instagram off of my phone so I wouldn’t be tempted to go on. Having a social media break is good for everyone. I find myself recharged after attending church and focusing on family.
So today I am sharing a new organizing challenge. A different perspective and way of looking at organizing. We are talking numbers. How much of an item to have? How much is too much?
There is also a really cute free printable too.
Hope you pop over and join us!

DIY 20 Cent Wall Hanging for your “Don’t Go For Perfection”

And guess what for just today and tomorrow you can get the motto free printed on cotton canvas! (you just pay shipping).
I also shared how you can make these hanging wall hangings for 20 cents or maybe even free!! These could make the perfect gifts too.

Kids Art and Photo Wall and Hp Sprocket Printer/Camera
My friend offered to take my kids for a couple hours to play in their backyard pool. It was really generous of her. I took advantage of the time and did mini project. Solved a pain-point for us. Where to hang the papers and photos my girls want to hang onto. And also a spot for their schedule.
I really just had a small idea of what I wanted to do and hoped it would work. Stopped at Home Depot and looked around for supplies that I could rig up a little system for their art. Sometimes that is how inspiration and ideas start. Looking and what tools you could use.
We have a mini wall behind their bedroom door and thought that would be the perfect spot. But it needed a little back-drop. Thankfully I had just enough leftover shiplap wallpaper to hang there. Like I literally had JUST enough. It was a little moment that I felt God’s love for me. I know some of you might roll your eyes and think….”really? It’s wallpaper”.
But it is more than that.
He knew it was important to me to finish this project to boost my confidence that I was doing what I was supposed to be doing in that moment. I often second guess myself and think I should just stop working and putting pressure on myself. But that moment as I doubting myself that day I had a confirmation I was doing ok.
I hope you find those moments to. Because they are there. He is aware of you. I have heard them called “God Winks” ❤️
Below is the BEFORE photo I didn’t show on my blog. See the after HERE!

House built by Thrifted Decor and Five Tips for Thrifting!
I am VERY excited to share this home with you. This is a client of mine that I did a design plan for and accessorized every inch. BUT it was all pieces that were thrifted. I gave her the plan and she got the same look by thrifting everything. There are a lot of great photos of FOUR rooms in home. I also shared FIVE tips to find thrifted pieces like she does.
Below is the BEFORE photo of her family room- you will not believe the AFTER and the fact that is was all thrifted.
