Travel Must Haves and Takes

Ok friends, we are leaving for our Family Vacation today, just thought I'd share a little Travel Must Takes and Haves.

Take your lint roller, you never know when you will need it, especially for a special foreign occasion. Hand sanitizer is a must of course, protect your tooth brushes with cases, always bring spares of everything.

How about these super cute miscellaneous holders? Perfect for jewelry, or anything in between.

Don't forget a first aid kit, you never know when you will need it, especially if traveling with little ones.

And if hand sanitizer isn't enough, bring your disinfectant wipes, I have a germ phobia, sadly yes, so I am always prepared on the double.

And last but definitely not least, stop by Wally World and pick up one of these cool document holders, instead of the good old fashioned fanny pack, this one is super thin, super light, and seamless, underneath your clothes, so you can feel safe traveling in a foreign country, close to your most important documents. We got one for each of us, and we are loving them!

Ok guys, I hope everyone has an amazing week this week. I know I will with my cute little family. Well, I gotta run to catch our plane. See you next week. Take care my friends, Adios!

Happy Friday Ya'll! I hope everything is ready for the weekend, I sure am! I am especially excited because we have a family vacation all next week. It's super exciting, before we leave, I wanted to quickly keep working on my spring cleaning. Remember I worked on my tiny linen closet a while back?
 
 
Well, I am very proud to re-post the end result, once again. I tweaked it a bit, and I like it even more now. Check it out!

Organization {Coat Closet Reveal}

Happy Friday! Alas, the weekend is here! and so is my Coat Closet Reveal, after much hard work, here it is. Check out how disorganized and horrible it looked before.



Terrible I know, how could I live like this? Like I mentioned before, since I moved upstairs, it has been quite chaotic trying to put things back in order. Finally I did it!

014

What do you think of the baskets? I think they look perfect!

028

The Bookplate Labels help so much, keeping things organized and in the same spot, Always!

How about giving simple hangers a lift, with Washi tape! Gotta love the endless possibilities with pretty tape.

022

Simple but Pretty

021

How about giving your Command Hooks a pop of color with more Washi Tape?

038

Oh so Pretty!

DIY: Personalize with BookPlates

Hi friends! Did you miss me? I am so sorry I was gone for so long, I have been soo busy lately, so busy that I haven't even had the opportunity to post about my most recent projects. Luckily today was a more relaxed day, and I get the post a cute little project I did over the weekend, well, it's part of a work in progress. You see, I have a coat closet now! it makes me super giddy, more storage space, and more fun opportunities to make it pretty.

I went to target and found these super cute basket bins on sale, I couldn't pass them up. So I got me three!

Also to personalize them a little I used some of my left over plates that I had purchased last fall.
 
 
015
 
Used some paint swatches for thick and better quality paper for labels
