I don’t know about you, but during the week between Christmas and New Years I tackled all of the boys toys and I did a lot of organizing. I put baby toys into storage for our maybe we’ll have a 3rd baby at some point and then sorted some extra toys to go to the grandparents houses and a donate pile as well. That still left us overflowing with toys. It seems like everyone is in the same mindset, because I have gotten a handful of inquiries on designing playrooms this week!
We don’t have a ton of extra space in our playroom/family room so, a new piece of furniture isn’t in the cards, but I need to do something. I love using storage totes or baskets for toys. I have them sprinkled in my living room and no one even knows they have toys! I normally pick up chic laundry hamper’s from HomeGoods. They have a lid and people are always surprised when my boys get into them and take out a million and one toys.
In my hunt this time around I found paper bag storage bags and I’m smitten!

Etsy is full of them! Here are some of my favorite shops that carry them:

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]
Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]
For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
