Tool Box Organization: Ladies, I’ve found a way to justify my Silhouette Cameo Machine, with my husband. It was at this moment that my husband actually said, “I’m glad you have this thing!”

Oh ladies… if you’ve found yourself wanting a Silhouette Cameo Machine, but haven’t quite convinced your husband of “why” you need one, then I may have just found the PERFECT excuse to actually pull the Silhouette out of your online shopping cart, and go to the “checkout!” Gentlemen, if you’re reading this… this MAY be the “manliest,” thing I ever post about. So enjoy it. 😉

Tool Cabinet Organization

My husband was constantly opening drawer after drawer, looking for that “one” item that he needed. UNTIL, I mentioned to him…

Honey, why don’t we just make some labels for your tool box drawers, with my Silhouette Machine?

Will it work?

Ha. Will it work… You betcha!

I simply measured each drawer, to know what size font to use, and had him write down what he would like each drawer labeled. Then, I ran off to my ~~hole~~ craft room, to get to work.

Note: I made sure to wipe down each drawer with rubbing alcohol before attaching any of the labels, to make sure that it was a super clean surface, for added “stick” strength.

I used white adhesive Silhouette vinyl to cut out each label (word). Then I used transfer paper to give me a hand while transferring it to the actual tool box.

After it was complete, I kid you not… I heard:

I’m so glad that you have this Silhouette Machine!

Moral of this short story & tutorial?? Show this post/photo to your husband, and explain all of the neat things that you can do for “him,” (like Tool Box Organization) if you just go ahead and get that Silhouette Machine. 😉

If you’re ready to buy a Silhouette Cameo, this is the Silhouette Cameo Bundle that I purchased. I LOVE that it came with just about everything I needed. (But of course have since purchased other goodies to go along with my love for the thing.)

All opinions are mine alone, promise! #MARVELSnackBar #CollectiveBias When I was a child, my parents took us out to eat MAYBE once a week. Usually on a Friday. It was a treat, for sure! Now... with my own little family... we eat out A LOT. It's either because of a social event, or the day/evening got away from us, and eating out just seems like the easy idea. Don't get me wrong, I wish we would eat at home more. I'm sure it's more affordable that way... But sometimes, I wonder...

How to Declutter & Organize. The Harsh Truth.

I'm sooo not a hoarder. I think there could be a good chance that I would be a packrat, if we lived in the same house for years. Or had plans to. But... we tend to move at least every couple of years, and the clutter... just doesn't happen, because I don't allow it to. So after years of decluttering, I wanted to share my decluttering tips with you. How to Declutter & Organize: 1. Start with one room. If that's too overwhelming for you, start with one small space. I'll admit, I usually have to start with a small space, and expand...

If you've been hanging around here for any amount of time, you've probably seen some of the parties that I have designed, and can tell that it's a HUGE passion of mine. Oh yes, the frilly cake stands... the fancy-schmancy hors d'oeuvres... it's all a blast. BUT... like everyone out there, we don't always have a months notice before we hear that someone is coming over. If you're married to someone like my husband... it's typically, Oh...

Fantabulosity’s Fab Faves – Kate Spade Love – 2.27.15

I have a plan. A plan that I think YOU'LL love. This world is FULL of fantabulous "thangs," and I get a tear in my eye thinking of all of the "must-haves," that could pass us by without even knowing about them. {Ok maybe I don't shed a tear, but part of a friendship is sharing and enjoying fabulous finds, and it would just be a lonely, lonely world without that camaraderie.} So what am I doing? Eeeeeeek. Ok, I'm a tad excited. Every Friday, I will be posting my "Fab Faves," for you! In the blogging world, you wouldn't BELIEVE all of...

White Serving Tray. Perfect as a centerpiece on the dining room table, or for a patio, serving drinks! Eeeeek!

My Recent Trip to Target-Feeding the Addiction

My trips to Target are getting better. Better? Well by "better," I mean that I don't spend as much as I used to. Possibly, it's because I go more often than I used to, rather than going twice a year, and feeling like I have to redecorate my entire house in that one trip. :) {To my hubby: I promise I never do that.} ;) You all seem to LOVE when I talk about my finds at Target, so I thought this time I'd just show you what my shopping bags coughed up when I got home. Yes, I love entertaining. Didn't know...

Stop Digging for that Card! ORGANIZE Your Reward Cards!

I have a MAD crush on Pinterest. At times I wonder how we even lived without it. Did we actually have to come up with ideas on our own? Boring. ;) At some point in my "pinning," career I came across a way to organize my reward cards. {I can't begin to tell you where I saw this.. because silly me, I didn't "pin," it. So make sure you "pin," this one, so you don't forget to do it, when you have time!} This has been one of the most HELPFUL tips that I have found, and as always... I must share...

Printable Organization for Kids

If you're like me, you see TONS of free lesson plans and printables on Pinterest that you want to print out for your kids to work on. Drawing, coloring, matching, shapes, and the list goes on. For a while, I struggled with printing something out on a whim, and I'd cross my fingers that I'd remember to pull it off of the printer for my toddler to work on the next day. In the meantime, we'd make it about half way through the stack of printables, life would happen, and then I'd find the other half of the printables ripped in...

Medicine Cabinet Organization with FREE Printables

Hey there all of you wonderful people! It's Friday and I'm feelin' fine. I have dinner in the crockpot, a clean kitchen, kiddos are napping, a new Kitchenaid Mixer on the way {see my Facebook post}, and an organized medicine cabinet! Gotta apologize in advance for the "shadowy" (is that a word?) photo of my medicine cabinet organization. Boooo! My linen closet is in my hallway, and no matter what time of day I took the photos, it always came out with a shadowy look to it. But...

Home Tour Part 7-The Pantry

Is the pantry considered a room? Maybe not, but I'm always a fan of seeing pantry organization on Pinterest, or on my favorite organization blogs, so I thought I'd include it on my home tour. If you missed the beginning of the "Home Tour" last month, you can see it here: Our Home Tour So I must start off by saying that this is a "before" photo of what our pantry WILL be... I have so many plans for this pantry, and it involves bins and baskets GALORE! I get so tired of seeing snacks scattered everywhere in boxes, so when...
