I had the nerve-wracking pleasure of appearing on Portland’s AM Northwest TV show earlier this week, this time to talk about how to organize your kitchen cupboards. (Hover your mouse over the image above to find the “play” button.) I had a great time! I even revealed the secret to organizing your Tupperware so you [...]

In my line of work, one of the most common reasons I see houses get so disorganized is because the owners have a great system for getting stuff into the house (shopping, gifts, freebies) and no system for getting stuff out of the house.

Then group your Tupperwear containers so all of the square [...]

This ingenious to-do list/calendar is the brain child of Kristy at Next To Heaven. (See her entire post about it here.) She simply framed scrapbooking paper in eight frames and writes the week’s activities directly on the glass with a dry erase marker. Seems like you could also write the meals for the week on [...]

These beautiful chrome towel bars and rings from Moen’s Preston line looks classy in any bathroom holding towels (and you can win them in the giveaway details at the end of this post!)

Recently, my 5-year-old son was sick with a migraine (seriously no fun) and I had the joy of searching through our medicine cabinet at 1 a.m., looking for the Children’s Tylenol. I was surprised at how many bottles of medicine we had accumulated, so the next morning, I cleaned out the cabinet and reorganized all [...]
