It All Started With a Leak ~ A Bathroom Renovation on a Budget

Old Floorplan

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may remember when we discovered a “minor” leak in our bathroom. Some of the tiles under the faucet had developed hairline cracks and started pushing in. It turned out, they were getting pushed in because the wall behind them was disintegrated.  Water had found its way to the other side of the tile and ruined the wall.  The rest of the tiles were in good shape, and we hadn’t planned on a major bathroom renovation, so we decided to take the tiles off of the wall right around the faucet [...]

Fish Foam Window Cleaner Giveaway

Fish Foam Window Cleaner Giveaway on Organizing Homelife

I can probably bet what you’re thinking by the title of this post.  Fish what?  That’s pretty much what I thought when the folks from Fish Window Cleaning contacted me about reviewing their product, Fish Foam. Of course the name grabbed my attention, but after looking at the product, I decided it might be worth a review.  One thing I don’t like about the window cleaner I have used for years is that it drips down the glass and runs all over the frame.  It’s especially frustrating when cleaning picture frames or mirrors.  Fish Foam sprays as a foam that [...]

My Easter Wish for You

Happy Easter

I wish you all a very happy and blessed Easter!  This is the most meaningful day of the year for me, so I thought today I would share a little from my heart. Although much of the decor surrounding the Easter holiday is centered around bunnies and chicks, Easter is really a celebration of new life.  New life given by the only One who can give life.  The One who is powerful above all – even death.  Easter is a celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the day he overcame death and paid the punishment for my sin, for [...]
