A Modern Farmhouse Redo Turned a “Tunnel-Like” Kitchen into an Open Retreat

Look closely at the cabinets in Christina Riley’s kitchen. See anything weird? Yep, those top ones are upside-down.“We thought maybe someone had just flipped the doors as a prank,” says Christina. “But when we removed the cabinet boxes on day two of living in the house, we realized they were installed completely upside down!”That was the weirdest part of their home’s kitchen, but it wasn’t the only thing they weren’t wild about.

7 Storage Finds to Get Your Whole Closet Organized for Under $40

The way your closet is organized can sometimes matter more than its actual size. You could have a huge walk-in closet, but if nothing is stored in a system that works for you then things will just end up in a pile on the floor. Alternatively, if you have a small closet and you’re not maximizing your storage then you’re sacrificing precious real estate. That’s where smart organizers come in handy.

This Bathroom Redo Cost Just $160 — You’d Never Guess What They DIYed

When one room in a home gets a colorful redo, it’s hard to look at other neutral rooms and not think about making a change. After Jessie Estes (@jessiegirlhome) redid her daughter’s bedroom in a bright, colorful style, the nearby bathroom started to look a little lackluster.“There are only two words that can describe the before: plain Jane!” Jessie says.

They Ditched a Tub in Their Cramped Bathroom — It Was the Best Decision

When it comes to bathing habits, there are usually two camps: bath enthusiasts or strictly shower people. Luiza Frediani Oxley and her partner, Chris, fall into the latter group. So in the bathroom of their small London flat, the tub took up unnecessary space. “It felt cramped, lacked proper storage, and had a few underlying issues like worn finishes and general wear that made it feel tired rather than functional,” Luiza explains.

Aldi's Best-Selling Blanket Storage Ladder Is Finally Back

I love snuggling up in a big blanket pile when it gets cold out, but when it warms up I have to find somewhere to put all these plush blankets. This can be a challenge for my small apartment (which doesn’t have much closet space). Vertical storage can be a lifesaver, and Aldi has once again restocked a super-smart and popular blanket storage solution at a very affordable price point.Part of this week’s crop of Aldi Finds, the Sohl Blanket Ladder ($24.

This Living Room Was Beige on Beige on Beige — Then They Built This

A good indication that a room needs a redo is the realization that you’re not using it to its full potential. For example, Sushma Samonini (@house_on_the_way) can’t really say there was anything wrong with the previous iteration of her UK living room.“But we found we weren’t really using the room well, either, as it was a confused mix of living room, playroom, and dumping ground,” Sushma says.

Skip the Boring Gift Bag — Use Vintage Scarves Instead

I might be great at picking out great housewarming gifts, but wrapping them up neatly is another story entirely. Most of the time I do a fine job, but I still always seem to end up with wrinkled, crinkled corners instead of neat, clean lines.I often default to gift bags for this reason, but they can be a little uninspiring at times. Plus, both of these methods can lead to a lot of paper waste.

This Boho Bedroom Got a Relaxing Redo That Was Completely DIYed

When Bridgett Shepherd realized the black-wall Instagram trend she originally loved was making her bedroom look less spacious, she knew it was time for a decoration do-over. She and her husband saw the room as “cold and uninviting,” in large part because of the black walls and orange floors (which they always hated).“Nothing about the room made us want to hang out in there,” Bridgett says. Thankfully, paint is an easy thing to change!

I’m Never Ironing Linen Again After Learning Her Trick to Remove Wrinkles

I have a lot of clothes and not a lot of space in my room, which means everything is a bit crammed together. From a storage perspective this is workable, but it does mean that my clothes — especially my summer linens — tend to get wrinkled.I don’t own an iron or ironing board, and my steamer has seen better days, which is why I was so excited to learn a trick for banishing wrinkles from linen clothing without any of those tools. You just need water and a spray bottle.

When it comes to decluttering, what stops me — more often than not — from getting rid of items is not knowing where to start, feeling dread about saying goodbye to sentimental items, and tossing an item I may possibly still need. And I’m sure I’m not the only one.I’ve experienced all the above, but when I adopted the “Limbo Box” method for decluttering, it changed everything.Here’s how I approach the “limbo box” method for decluttering.

The Cutest Holiday Find Is Hiding at Cracker Barrel

I didn’t grow up near a Cracker Barrel, so I don’t have as much nostalgia associated with the chain as my friends who grew up road-tripping across the South do. However, I love trinkets and fun, kitschy decor, so I definitely have a soft spot for the Cracker Barrel General Store. And while normally I’d say it’s too early for holiday decorations, there’s a viral stacked book Christmas tree decor item for sale at the chain that just might change my mind.
