Where Unique, Chic and Organized Meet
I have 8.5 and 7 year old boys who share a room. Can you imagine what that room looks like on a regular basis? No? Don't worry because I'm going to show you what a mess that room WAS. Was? Why did I say was? Well that's because I got a few key items from Trinity, and the room has a whole new look. My sons aren't good with the "clean up your room" command. No matter how much organization I … [Read more...]
I've been a lover of the Neat-Oh Zip Bins for years. We've had many different ones over the years, and my boys have always loved the ability to carry their stuff and unzip for a fun play mat. Not only do they make bins that unzip into play mats they have bags too. One of our favorites when the boys were little they loved their Hot Wheels Wheelie Backpack. I remember them unzipping it and making … [Read more...]
With all of the travel and moving around we are all doing these days packing snacks and food is a necessity. If you're like me and have children having snacks and food for them is the key to ever lasting happiness. When I received the eBags Crew Cooler II in Blue Yonder I was so impressed with how compact it was. It seemed that eBags thought of everything when it comes to traveling with food. … [Read more...]
This time of year the influx of toys can be crazy. Looking for a great storage solution? I wrote How To Create Toy Storage today on The Centsible Life. Get over there and see how easy it is. Lowe's Creative Ideas has kindly donated $100 to my charity of choice. I have asked them to send it to Larchmont Charter School - West Hollywood, the wonderful school my sons' are attending. In order to … [Read more...]
When back-to-school season comes around I am on the hunt for a new backpack, or lunch bag, or both. Schoolbags For Kids is more than just a bag though, it's a backpack with purpose. My love for a good/beautiful bag extends to the bags my children carry. No I'm not shallow, I just want them to have sturdy well organized bags for school. Imagine my delight when I met the fantastic Schoolbags For … [Read more...]
As many of you know I'm at BlogHer in San Diego. I have asked some really fantastic bloggers to make a guest appearance for a few days. Today I have the fantastic Rajean (@rajean) of Rajean Blomquist. I'm so excited about this post because Rajean has such amazing ideas. Having been around the parenting block, my oldest will turn 21 later this year (yikes!) and my youngest is just coming out of … [Read more...]
Last Friday I posted my Vision Board 2011. Part of my vision was to create rules for the kids. I would like to be more consistent with the boys as far as discipline goes. While there are rules in our house, I can't say I'm great at enforcing them as far consequences are concerned. I sat them down tonight with a pad and pen with the boys and R to create rules for the kids. Since A who is … [Read more...]
The following is a true story. This story is being told not to scare you, but to simply warn you. I hope my experience will only serve to save you from being taken over by toys. Every year I prepare for this time of year's toy influx not only because of the holidays but because of E's birthday. When I mean preparing I mean that I go through and remove all unplayed with toys and those … [Read more...]
Tis the season to be inundated with tons of toys you have no idea where you will store. The panic has begun to set in. I have 8 nights of presents from us. Then my family, my extended family, R's family and our friends to name a few. To add to that E's birthday is in December. If you aren't panicked I'm panicked enough for everyone. The only thing that is giving me some feeling of ease … [Read more...]
Years ago I was introduced to the Inchbug Bumpy Name Orbit Labels, and it was the light at the end of a tunnel. With my kids needing to label for day care then pre-school and now for elementary school finding something easy to identify their items was a constant battle. Then I found these wonderful labels that can be moved from cup to cup. They are indestructable, and let's face it with … [Read more...]

Since school started I have wanted to have a wall of full organization to make it easy to wrangle all of the school paperwork, homework, lists, calendar and kids artwork. I have finally finished the wall. Alright I'll be honest I spent a lot of time planning this wall and researching how to make it work exactly the way I want it to. I love how everything has a place and it makes it easy for … [Read more...]
