    use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without–my version

    24 September 2013

    When we were moving, I did a dumb thing. (Lots of them, but this is just one I’m sharing today.) I was trying to see if my favorite lamps from our bedroom would fit into a certain box. I just folded it together (no tape!) to test it out. They fit, so I went along packing and forgot about it. I taped up the top of the box, slid it across the kitchen floor to the garage and then picked it up to add to the stack of boxes.
    You guessed it: the lamps came crashing out of the bottom of the box onto the concrete floor. Even though they were wrapped, the top of one broke off. Sadness. These were from my Grandma Reeva for my birthday (well, she gave me the money, I picked them out) and she always, always lives true to the saying: “use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.”

    easy storage solution in the bathroom

    23 September 2013

    Hello, friends! I’m back to share an easy storage solution we came up with for the bathroom downstairs. All 5 of my kids are sharing it, there are no drawers and very little storage, we are renting so we can’t do anything too crazy to the walls, so we had to figure out an inexpensive solution in a jiffy.

    tip: spin pins!

    21 September 2013

    Have you seen/heard of these things? Our new best friend! I am not a good hair bun maker. My poor Lauren was in a preschool ballet recital and the bun I had put in fell out in the middle of the song! Hair flailing everywhere = mortifying!

    I have been fired from buns ever since. Until I met these~they are called spin pins and this is how they work (thank you to Hailey, my trusty model)

    1. twist your hair into a bun.

    2. take one and twist it down into the bun

    3. take another and twist it up into the bun, make sure they don’t interlockspin pin 2

    4. your bun stays in all day! Bring on the ballet recitals! We have lots of hair in this family, so it was a great find for us.spin pin

    I’ve seen them at most stores that sell hair products for $6-7 for 2 and also on on Amazon in a 6-pack

    We hope they make your hair life a little easier~

    (no affiliate with spin pins, we just love them)
