Welp, its been a little over three weeks and my @oneroomchallenge space is still looking good. My husband tends to navigate to this bathroom first, over all other bathrooms 🤨, and every time he uses it, I go in after to make sure things are still where they should be. I did have to remind him when changing the toilet paper roll to please put the toilet paper back on the holder and not leave it on the counter😑 other than that, no beef🙃 📸 @hannahlozanophoto

Happy SaturDIY! I am spending a little time cleaning out my pantry and organizing my spice cabinet this afternoon. You can catch all of the action in my stories. Swipe to see what my pantry looked like before, it was just as cute🙃 I hope you guys have a great day!

Man, you home bloggers always have such pretty org

Man, you home bloggers always have such pretty organized spaces!!! How do you do it? Welp, the lie detector determined that was/is/always is a LIE. I can’t be efficient and effective if I am always striving for perfection if that makes sense. I like pretty spaces, but having them lived and serving their purpose makes them even better. There is a huge stack of papers, a hair dye box (not sure why that’s even in here🤔) and other crap that accumulated in my office this week. I’ll clean it up, and it will be back to this by next week and I am okay with that. Desk, chair, center painting, and vase from Goodwill a few years ago. Happy FriDIY good folks! PS- a few tanks still in the shop.

When we completed our master closet makeover a few

When we completed our master closet makeover a few months ago, and even the powder room makeover, many of you noticed how hands on my husband is in most of my projects, even if he is just lending me the muscle to carry out a task. Welp! Let me tell you a secret... most of the things that I do around the house, he doesn’t even agree with! I always have to sell my ideas to him and guess what? It annoys the hell out of me. But since I’ve been tackling projects since 2012, I’ve got the convincing part down to a science and I’m spilling all my secrets in today’s blog post! Have trouble get your significant other on board to get it cracking on these projects? Head to the blog right now (link in bio). These tips are about to have you flexing your DIY and design skills in no time🤣 Am I the only one that struggles to get their spouse on board or nah? Sometimes I think he is blind because its like why do I have to convince you that 90’s boob lights need to be changed🤔 Anyway, before you head to the post, swipe through to see what our master closet looked like before we installed the @organizedliving freedomRail system. Still loving it to this day! PS wallpaper is the same as the one in my powder room

I am no stranger to peel and stick wallpaper. My son’s room was the first space that I ever tackled with this type of wallpaper then I was hooked. Its been 2 years and I still love his wall. I’ll be giving a tour of his bedroom, along with the kids rooms of some of my friends at 2pm EST today. Hope you join us! Don’t worry, it will a short tour because his room isn’t that big😂

Happy Monday. Not sure of the last time I’ve int

Happy Monday. Not sure of the last time I’ve introduced myself but I wanted to do a quick intro! I’m Erin, and I am originally from the Soufside of Chicago... Southside for you more proper folks😂 I am a human mom, dog mom, and wife. I work a full-time job, yes FULL-Time and manage my blogging/creative business full-time as well. I took Japanese as a foreign language from 1st-12th grade but I am still not fluent (blame immaturity😣), but I can still read most letters. My favorite foods are super spicy, not like wimpy spicy but face numbing spicy. I would rather build an entire table than do a small craft project... blame my fat fingers. That’s about it. What about you? Where are you from and what brought you to my page? Whatever it is, I am happy that you are here! 📸 @hannahlozanophoto

You asked, I delivered! Finally, lol. I just added

You asked, I delivered! Finally, lol. I just added a very limited quantity of the DIY to-do list tanks to my shop. I mean super limited. These will go fast. These tanks are so comfy and if you are like me with a little extra weight around the mid section, these hide it all. It’s perfect for those garage in the summer projects😩 or to just be cute while you are headed to your local @homedepot💁🏾‍♀️Head to the link in my bio right now to grab yours. If you buy 2 or more shirts, then snag yourself 10% off your entire order using code LIMITED! All sizes in the regular tees have been restocked. I am so grateful for you guys supporting my tee shop. It’s beyond anything I could have imagined. Click the link in my bio to shop.

Yall pray for me🥺 Don’t worry, nothing is wrong, I’m just experiencing some major separation anxiety from my local Goodwill. Not because of COVID but because I have to stay but butt away because I don’t need 💩.
