a few etsy updates

We have been slowly working on updating and adding new products to our etsy shop. Any whim we have basically gets made into a product for you! And so we thought it was time to talk a little bit about our new products.

We have added custom checkbook covers to the shop. We have both had our own for about a year now, so why not add them to the shop? duh. They are ah-dor-able! Here's one we made for our momma...

And the teacher planner got an awesome new updated look! I love it. and its just in time for teacher's to get their orders in for next year!! wa-hoo! These babies come bound with a 10 mil laminated cover- making them durable enough to pop in your bag and go back and forth!

We have also made some super cheery cleaning checklists. If we must clean, it might as well be on a cute checklist right? Make one for each room, or a one list for the whole house. Just send us which cleaning tasks you need on your checklist.

And how about a wardrobe inventory? Need to get your clothing stash in line? or figure out the status of your kids' clothes? What do you need to purchase in a bigger size?? Snag up your own clothing inventory to do just that! Great to fill out during your spring cleaning! We have a couple different layouts of this inventory available...

Hate trying to muddle through the grocery store with a list scratched out on the back of an envelope? Grab one of these cuties to help you get through the store like a whiz! A grocery list customized to the things that you buy regularly! A space for checking it off the list after you put it in the cart, and a space to mark how many of each you need. Couldn't be simpler. 

Have a hard time keeping track of your tasks to do today? Forget who you need to call back?  Grab these cheery list up and keep your days in order. Or go eco-friendly and laminate and re-use with a wet or dry erase marker.

Are you working on your fitness? (obviously sung Fergie style) Grab up our new fitness logs! There's a  short and sweet condensed version and a more detailed version. Choose the one that suits your needs.

Do you have some cutey kidlets that would benefit from their very own daily checklist or chore chart?? We will customize one to fit your child's schedule or jobs. Super cute way to make your little person feel older and responsible, and make mom proud :)

Pop over to our etsy shop to check out any of these items in closer detail or to order your own!

Any other products you would like to see?? We love to make custom documents, in fact a few of our newly listed items came from custom orders.

High five for Friday

We are linking up with the lovely Lauren again this week.

1. Niki's class is going to the movie today! We are going to see The Croods. We couldn't be more excited.

2. I added these black bins to the linen closet and I am loving them. They are waiting for some awesome labels from Shannon. Also, my formerly empty shelf is now full of empty bins and baskets that Shannon got when we re-organized Faith's room last week.

3. We re-organized Faith's room last week. Shannon had the day off, and I had the week off. Faith's room was a disaster. We decluttered, pared down and rearranged. It is looking so much better and she is maintaining it pretty well. Look for a post on that later this month. :)

4. I got these wonderful new pouches from thirty-one that are helping me to keep my purse neat and organized. I love that they are so bright and cheery! No more digging to the bottom of my purse to find something!

5. I have become a freak....look at all that I require to prepare breakfast and lunch. Plus the coffee pot is running too! and those labels....expect a post on my labeling frenzy soon too!

have a great weekend everyone. don't forget there is still a few days to sign up for our giveaway! just click here to go to the entry. 

High Five for Friday

Here we are again linking up with Lauren at from my grey desk to share our Friday Five!

1. Jen from I heart organizing tweeted us!! AAHH!(can you see the star-struck look in our eyes???)

2. Niki got the second order of Girl Scout cookies! (I swear I haven't eaten 2 boxes) #thatsalie
3. I (Niki) went shopping the last couple weeks and have gotten some fun new stuff. I bought a few things from a Facebook swap group, and some from Kohl's. Expect to see some soon!
4. My computer is fixed and ready to be picked up! Hoooray! And the best part, Alumi get their computer fixed for free! #studentloandebtuptomyeyeballs

5. My car is getting fixed finally (from when I got hit in December) and I'm rollin a Buick for a while. #stylin

This is my #mixitupmarch outfit. When I wore this top the first time I wore it with the coral sweater. This week I wore it with a black cardigan and the coral scarf. I think I like the mix it up version better! What about you?

have a great weekend everyone....and don't forget about our spring cleaning sale in our etsy shop! Save 20% on your entire order. And if you haven't grabbed our spring cleaning printables, do that too!

Spring Cleaning Checklists

Shannon made some awesome spring cleaning checklists. Have you downloaded yours yet? If not, go here.

I downloaded mine and printed them. I printed one for every room, except the office. We don't have one. I also printed 4 bedroom pages because we have 4 bedrooms in our house. I needed to have one checklist for each bedroom.

I also printed out a couple blank ones. They are for specific areas I want to declutter like the coat closet and toy closet. I don't have any extra cool rooms, like the library or media room. But if I was cool, and I did, I would use them for that.

Also, I had to cross out some things, and change some things. For example, I don't have any carpet in my room or Carter's. So I switched that to sweep and swiffer. Other things like clean mirror, I just crossed out since I don't have one in my room.

So, if you haven't already, go download your spring cleaning printables, because they will only be free for a limited time! Share with us your spring cleaning plans. I am finishing mine next week when I'm on spring break. What about you?

Plus, more good news. We are having a spring cleaning sale in our etsy shop too! Save 20% on your entire order!

Organize Your New Year

The new year is a wonderful time of the year....It's a time of resolutions and reorganizations!! Hooray! I love a chance to start fresh and reorganize and re-evaluate my planning, cleaning, arranging.....

crisp new calendars

brand new planners

clean cupboards and closets

rearranged rooms

a new cleaning schedule 

all the wonderfulness of planning out a new year

any other weirdos out there who feel the same way?

or maybe you are a non organizing freak but would like to make your new year a little more streamlined and organized? 

We can help!

From now through January 31, 2013 we are offering our monthly calendars for half price!

$1.50 for all 12 calendars!

   I heart them :)

They are coordinated to match the new theme of our home management binder documents, but they are still a wonderful pop of color even if you don't have our new home management binder documents.

What new home management binder documents?
Well these babies were specially made to force my sister to make her own home management binder. Yep, force. She has no choice. If I have to drive to her house and tape her to the chair until she finishes it.

  They are a totally new bright colored theme and absolutely adoarble!!
Check them out...

We also added a few other new items to our etsy shop...

 I made these routines for my sister's kids....so I figured if they worked for her, there might be others out there who would benefit from a bedtime routine.
It doesn't have to be a bedtime routine...I could be a morning or after school routine too.
  
 We are also in the process of updating the rest of our packages and sets....
The layout and designs of my documents have definitely changed over the past year and I feel like all of my original documents are boring and out of date, so they must be corrected!

 

 

  

   

The first things to be updated are the budget packages....
Check back with our etsy store for more updates. 

We have also seen a few challenges and link parties planned for the new year, so we hope to participate in those as well. Yay!
