This recipe is one I grew up with and is my absolute favorite cookie of all time, so I am loving that the recipe is getting attention!

 

How to Frame a Mirror

2. How to Frame a Mirror DIY Tutorial

This is hands-down my all time favorite project we have done to our home. It has made such an enormous difference for how our bathroom feels and looking back at the “before” pictures completely shocks me every time because I just can’t imagine it being that way anymore. This is a relatively easy and inexpensive project that makes a huge impact!

This is a post my contributor, Meagan, wrote. I love No Bake Cookies and always love it when she shares one of her recipes. I always end up trying her recipes when she shares them. If you have never had no bake cookies, don’t wait any longer, they are delicious!

 

Tile & Grout Cleaner

4. Homemade Tile and Grout Cleaner

This is another post Meagan wrote, and probably my favorite of all of her posts. There is SO much tile here in Arizona and with all of our dust and dirt, it’s always dirty. Love having a simple and effective cleaner for our tile!

 

Barbecue Cups

5. Easy Dinner Recipes for School Nights – Barbecue Cups

Room-by-Room Cleaning Checklist

6. Household Chores Checklist by Room

Great resource to help you organize your cleaning routine for the New Year. I’ve off and on done this over the years, assign one room per day and break down my daily cleaning jobs throughout the week. It’s a great way to break down all the jobs throughout a week.

Small Bathroom Design Ideas

8. Small Bathroom Design Ideas (and Before/After)

This post goes along with the framing a bathroom mirror post, above, but it shows a lot more of our bathroom makeover and some great ideas for making the post of your small bathroom space. I love how our bathroom turned out, so this is a fun post for me to visit again! I have one more DIY project coming this week, actually, that focuses on our bathroom projects we did. Can’t wait to share!!
