I have a confession. My glass jar hoarding has become such a problem that I don’t even save jars anymore because we have so many in the basement. Yep. It’s that bad. At least I’m admitting it and not making the problem worse. Well almost. There’s one type of jar that never makes its way into the recycling bin: Marzetti Poppyseed salad dressing. Aside from being delicious (seriously, put it on your next salad, you’re welcome), the jars are just soooo perfect for crafting. Just ...

Easy ways to store and organize Christmas decor + free organization labels
Confession time: Who still has their Christmas decorations up? Then this post is for you. We took ours down earlier this week and unlike in past years where everything just gets thrown in the bins and boxes for us to deal with in 11 months, I was a bit more organized with it this year. Somehow, taking down the Christmas decorations this year turned into organizing the whole basement. Which meant organizing the Christmas decor. I’m excited for November when we unpack all ...
