I received samples of Stock-It-Pockets that inspired these craft storage ideas. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I think most of us, even those who typically love to keep things organized, have one spot in their home that could use a little TLC.  It’s usually a kitchen drawer or random closet that even when you try to keep it straight, it just doesn’t work.  Kind of like the episode of Friends where Chandler opens the normally neat Monica’s secret “throw all” closet and is shocked by what he sees.

For me, it’s always been my crafting closet or space.  There are just so many spools of ribbon, bags of buttons, bottles of paint and other odds and ends it’s hard to keep it all tidy.  I even bought a few plastic bins which generally keep me on top of the organizational ball, but they just weren’t cutting it.

Keep Desks Tidy with MOS Cord Organizers

This is a sponsored post on behalf of MOS Cord Organizers. All thoughts and words are my own.

I know there are worse problems one can have in life, but I have to say that a snare of cords is pretty high on my list of annoyances.  Between my laptop, all our cell phone chargers, the video monitor base, and the other random items five people can accumulate, sometimes I feel like I need a degree in knots.

I can only imagine it can get frustrating for Ashley in college, too.  She is fortunate enough to have a dorm room to herself, but no dorm room is super-huge, so there’s not a lot of wiggle room.  And she has her Macbook, iPhone, iPod, and other items located on her desk.

So for Christmas we’re looking into one of the MOS Organizers.  Each kit comes with a base in scratch-resistant white or black plastic or anodized aluminum.  Also included are 3 magnetic cable ties, a Micro Suction cup to secure the base without need for anything to leave behind residue, and a 3M double-sided adhesive circle that will hold your cables vertically.

I received a Keter MasterCart Rolling Tool Box in order to facilitate my review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

My love for all things organization ins’t confined to the interior of the house with pretty bins or closet storage systems.  I also love outdoor organization items, especially for the garage.  I’ll own up to my inner geek and admit that when they were still on TV, I would watch those garage makeover shows on the home improvement channels.  I always wished they would come to my house!

Fortunately, hubby is of the same mindset when it comes to keeping the garage organized.  One of the first things he did when we moved into this house was get the garage set up.  Racks and shelves, hooks on the walls – lots of ways to keep it tidy and keep things in place. Continue reading »

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Soundfreaq. I received a Soundfreaq Sound Spot to facilitate my review.

Our family really enjoys music.  Most any time of day music is being played on a phone or laptop, or even through the television using one of our gaming consoles.  There’s often live music, also, as Ashley and Austin both still play guitar, drums and keyboard regularly.

During the holidays, though, there are even more occasions to play music.  We like to have it as a backdrop while decorating the Christmas tree, have songs to sing while we bake cookies or make Christmas dinner, and to be able to have playing softly in the background when we’re entertaining.  And of course joyful tunes to play on Christmas morning!

Keeping Our Home Holiday Fresh with Arm & Hammer

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting (#MC) for Arm & Hammer. I received an Arm & Hammer Laundry Detergent product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.

There are days that I don’t know how my Mom did all that she did, especially when it comes to laundry.  I remember each day going to toss a few things into the hamper and it would be full.  Not because my Mom hadn’t done the wash, but because with myself, two rough-and-tumble younger brothers, and clothes dirty from working on the farm or in the garden, there just was never an end.

During winter and around the holidays there was always even more.  Wet clothes and socks from being out in the snow, tablecloths and linens with gravy stains from holiday meals, my brothers’ basketball uniforms.  Seriously, she must have felt like the only four walls she saw that time of year were the ones in the laundry room.
