Here are some creative ways to pull color into your humble abode, so pick your favorite shade and run with it!

Sundays are For…DIY Organization!

Sunday is the perfect day for DIY projects. After a long and lazy weekend, sometimes a girl needs a creative project to get her ready for the week ahead. And what better project than one that can also improve your living space? These DIY Organization projects are amazing ways to help give a little order to your life, and as a bonus, amazing stress relievers!

A Strong Week

If you have a family with crazy schedules, or even if you just want to make your week a bit easier, fashion a weekly board with graphically-pleasing wallpaper, whiteboards, and space for important papers.

Hang Ten

Got too many shoes and nowhere to put them? Yea, we know the feeling! However, using some hangers and string, you can create wall hangers for every pair of shoes you own!

The Beauty of Organization

Some things have amazing multiple uses once you think outside the box! Coffee beans can keep your makeup brushes upright, a grater can become an earring holder, and pins + wood=necklace storage for the naturally fabulous!

A Sunny Idea

Don’t leave your precious sunnies lying around, waiting to get broken. Instead, you can use an old picture frame and some wire for a fashionable sunglass display!

Hide & Seek

A nifty pull-out cabinet can fit all of your kitchen essentials and hide away when you’re done. For small apartments and dorms, this space-saving trick is amazing!

Wordless Wednesday: PINK!

Some movie lines really stick with you. “Here’s looking at you, kid” and “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn,” or our personal favorite: “On Wednesdays, we wear pink!” Mean Girls was so amazing when it first came out, because it showed the sometimes ridiculous things that girls do for popularity or to fit in. But it also left us with some great fashion lessons. Maybe pink isn’t mandatory one day a week, but a day celebrating the most feminine shade of all is something we can definitely get on board with! Here are some fucsia, rose, and bubblegum-colored things to make today great!
