The Most Pinteresting Thing of the Week: December 14th

Here are my top 10 of the week!

I have clients all the time complaining to me about finger prints and hand prints from their little ones on the walls… I wonder if something like this would work as a temporary fix (and cover) for some areas… like a mud room or hallway. I’m sure they make a pattern that isn’t quite so bold…

 

Love this bathroom. Simple, clean, and beautiful.

 

Clients also ask me what to do with their big stair landing and window… this is a great idea! Gotta love more storage!

 

What a great cabinet color for something different!

Love these colors for an updated french country…

Fun DIY idea… those pesky tv walls and what to do without having to spend a ton of money paying for a built in cabinet… this would be great for an apartment or rental.

 

Love this idea for your kids… what a sweet thing for them to have someday when you are gone.

 

What a great idea for kids when you are traveling. No fighting and so organized!

 

This would probably my choice of bridesmaid dress color if I was getting married now.

 

I still really want to wrap my Christmas gifts like this this year… but seriously I might just need to take a week of no sleeping to get all of this done!

 

 

{DIY}: A fun custom label how-to!

I am always looking for new ways to organize, and if there is a way to organize and make it look cute at the same time, even better! If you haven’t had a chance to go over to the blog, …

Another DIY project I had a blast making for a client for their newly made over kitchen. (Post coming tomorrow on the kitchen makeover!) This was an easy and inexpensive project that can really freshen up and help organize a …

Organization Heaven!!!

Some of you may know how big of an organizing freak I am! I have an addiction to buying planners, calendars, binders, dividers, SHEET PROTECTORS (I know I know I’m a total nerd)…

Here is the latest planner I purchased on our trip to Palm Springs: (I told Charlie not to worry, he could give it to me as a Christmas present 😉 )

Once I bought this planner, I realized I still need something bigger to plan out my business goals, blog posts, and website/Facebook page updates.

I thought maybe I should start with something that didn’t cost quite as much money… (he might kill me otherwise!)

I began to peruse the internet looking for big printable templates, calendars, and other organizational tools. Of course Pinterest was a HUGE help, and fellow bloggers also were very generous in sharing their creations that have helped them. I had to share with you all, in case anyone out there gets as excited as I do about cute, organizational things, that are FREE!

First, a few adorable printable calendars. Check back with these websites, I have a feeling the 2013 calendars will be coming out soon!

Free printable 2012 calendar from www.thetomkatstudio.com

You have to visit The Tom Kat Studios website! There are TONS of free printables, including the calendars above, all sorts of different holiday/party invites and decor, gift tags, etc. etc.

Another website, similar to Tom Kat Studios, is 505-design.com. Here is their free printable calendar for 2012:

And then I found this website who offered free templates for blogger organization. Dream! I love to be organized, but one thing I am not skilled in is the graphic design part of all of it. I want it to look cute and have no idea how to create it on the computer. http://www.evelynkatedesigns.com was generous enough to create an adorable template, and share it for FREE! (Can you tell I like freebies?)

Not a blogger? She also created some other really fun templates:
