Or you get a dog.

The simplest and most straightforward closet organization ideas.Do you have a favorite cleaning and organizing trick that you learned in 2015?

What kinds of things would you like to see me write more about in 2016?Renovating a bathroom is kind of an amazing experience.It’s always so much more work than you ever thought it would be, and of course, it’s almost always a really expensive project.When you renovate a bathroom, you definitely gain an appreciation for all of these simple conveniences like running water, that we’re so used to taking for granted, but you also always start to become really aware of every penny that you spend.

Those pennies can add up fast, especially if you’re trying to build your dream bathroom like we were!This all amounts to a whole lot of pressure to make every single decision absolutely perfect.

After all, if you’re spending all of this dough, you want some pretty fantastic results, right?

The bathroom fixtures, like the faucets and the toilet paper holder, are things that we often take for granted, but they really can make or break your room… and you’re budget!I love any book, blog, or other publication, where I can read it and learn something that I can put to use immediately!.

Along with the book, Amy sent me some extra little goodies to get me started on some of the projects like some fabric scraps, some beet seeds, and some dried lavender.I can’t wait to spend a nice sunny few hours out on the deck playing around with some of these projects during naptime!.

Some of the projects that stood out to me as things that I definitely want to try are the Spiced Chai Sugar Hand Scrub, The DIY Coconut Oil (seriously!), and the Frozen Rosemary, Cranberry, and Beet Juice Christmas Wreath.
