Make a fall window box with me! Everything in the box is a faux floral for easy upkeep and to keep it from getting too heavy! A lot of this greenery can stay in the spring and summer with a few floral additions! Iโll also replace some of this with evergreen branches for the holidays. I added some faux pumpkins for the fall (andย to keep the squirrels out)! ๐ ๐ Shop the real at Madebykidsco.com for links to everything I used! I already canโt wait to change this out for Christmas! #fall #falldecor #fallplanter #falldecorating #fallfrontporch #fallwindowbox #amazon #lifestyle #amazonhome #fallamazon

Here’s a round-up of some of our favorite summer dining deals for Amazon Prime Day. I’m obsessed with all things rattan for summer. The acrylic lids on the servers below are great for keeping flies out during outdoor parties. They also look pretty on the counter inside to store bread or baked goods or while entertaining. There are also some really cute colorful baskets and liners for the kids.
After Christmas, it was on our agenda to go through and donate a bunch of toys the kids have outgrown or no longer play with. Our basement is a smaller space and while there’s plenty of room to watch a movie or play, there isn’t enough space for hundreds of plastic toys. When we decided to refresh our basement, we wanted to do so without spending much money and without creating more storage for toys. Instead, if the toys didn’t fit into our current storage solutions, off to the donation center they went! Check out our $100 weekend playroom makeover.
If you’re looking to re-organize your playroom or give do a quick playroom makeover, the best thing you can do is to declutter. Decluttering doesn’t cost you anything and you can do it as often as you’d like. While I painted and created a cute mini-playschool in this refresh, decluttering made the most impact.
Step 2: Paint
Our basement was a blue/gray color and since we only have one window down there it made it feel pretty dark. While I love the look of a dark-colored and moody basement, I wanted to brighten ours up. The color I chose is Behr, Cotton Knit. I used it on the walls and the fireplace.
Step 3: Re-Imagine an Unused Nook
We have a little nook in the basement that’s pretty small. We will likely do a storage solution in it one day For now, the kids voted for mini-play school. I used Rustoleum Chalkboard Paint, a table, stools, and a globe we already had to set it up. The only cost here was the paint but it’s a fun new way to use an unused space.
Step 4: Use Your Existing Storage
We already had these six-cube storage organizers (@Amazon) in weathered gray. I also had a set of square wicker baskets @Amazon that go inside. We made a pact to only keep toys that would fit inside these baskets. We used what we already have to organize each basket by theme. A couple of their favorite larger items sit on top and the rest of the floor space is now open to play.
