While most toy rooms are filled to the ceiling with toys, wise parents learn to limit the number of toys that kids have to play with.
great article! T is totally overwhelmed with all her stuff in her room, she said yesterday she thinks she is becoming a hoarder. She has an emotional attachment to every single item in her room, she says she feels bad if she donates something that someone gave her.
Agree 100%

It’s lovely, but it has the same problem as mine .... no elf at the bottom of it to do the laundry. Or to bring it back upstairs. Lol
Forget the kids, I would!

Even in homes where getting by is a bit of a struggle, Christmas is generally a time of indulgence in Australia. We max out our credit cards buying ‘stuff’, eat more than we should, eat fancier than normal and generally over-do it financially (and in other ways). At the same time that we spoil o...Fill in the Blank…

Photo credit: www.lizmarieblog.com/2015/05/hgtv-dream-home-2015/
It looks pretty but I too prefer minimal stuff on my counters.
I like the colors, but I don't like extra stuff on the counter like that (jus the candle, or the flowers)
Love this
I like the colours but I don’t like anything on my counters, and I don’t like the sinks on top of the counters but that’s me. When I do Home Staging I do not use any dried flowers at all, nor do I have them in my home, they’re dust collectors, again my opinion. Fresh flowers fine.
10 years ago i would have loved it... Today, I find I'm more fond of the clear nothing on the counter look.
Very pretty!
It's pretty but tge glass mirror tray would need alot of extra cleaning
Love it
Love it
Love!
L♥️VE!
I love the high end and elegant look too.
Looks like the items I use to stage my bathrooms! Adding softer, organic textures to spaces that have many hard surfaces, helps create balance & warms up the space.
Friday Funny. Actually, this is a really good idea and we do it often. Cleaning companies don't always tidy and organize before they clean, so we will come in and tidy everything up and put everything away in a timely and functional manner, which makes it easier for the cleaning company to come in and clean.
We work with reputable cleaning companies, so if you need both organizing and cleaning, we can help you out with the organizing, and have a cleaning company come in and clean. It's a win-win situation!
Are you ready to tackle 2019? I have been doing some planning but needed something that I could view every month. I like to plan ahead so I thought I would share with you my new wall calendar. I bought it off of Amazon and I am now ready to start filling it in. This will make it much easier for me to plan. Yay! Sometimes it is the smallest things (although this is not small lol) that makes me happy. 😊

Sometimes we lack motivation to clean or tidy the house. A great way to find some energy is to play lively music.

Escheresque
