Selling Your Home Series – Neutral Decor

Last updated on: March 8, 2013 at 3:22 pm By Jennifer Fancher

One of the best tips you can do to move your house on the market is to use Neutral Decor. While I LOVE color, I must admit that I chose my beige paint 4 years ago with a purpose – selling! We weren’t sure of our longevity here and I knew that if I had to sell quick, then a nice warm base color would be the best bet. But looking below, it’s very busy. Examine your rooms, maybe take...

DIY Printed Dictionary Pages

Last updated on: February 27, 2013 at 8:20 am By Jennifer Fancher

Printed Dictionary Pages are so popular right now and so easy to do yourself. When I go junkin’, I’m always on the look out for old books and I’ve found some great, aged dictionaries. Some of our dearest friends run a kid’s improv school in L.A. called Studio LOL. If you live in the area, this is an amazing program that helps bring out the creativity in your child. Our boys have participated and had a blast! They have... Read more

Selling Your Home Series – the Cost of Selling

Last updated on: February 25, 2013 at 8:54 am By Jennifer Fancher

One of the most important things before you sell your home is knowing the cost of selling. We’re talking about the moolah, green backs, the bottom line, how much you’ll make…. or worse-lose! When my husband and I were first discussing putting our home on the market, we had no clue as to what our financial responsibility would be. Getting the numbers upfront is a smart, realistic approach to selling your home and knowing what is expected at closing. What... Read more

Cabinet Door Makeover Revisited

Last updated on: February 22, 2013 at 8:15 am By Jennifer Fancher

2 years ago today, my most popular post was launched and it still gets the most hits today, so I’d thought I’d revisit it. I started with a cabinet door I found at a garage sale. I painted it white and distressed it. I printed out the phrase I wanted, which was our wedding year, and sized it according to the door. I took a piece of charcoal from my husband’s art supplies and shaded the underside of the paper... Read more

Selling Your Home Series – Getting the Numbers

Last updated on: February 21, 2013 at 7:54 am By Jennifer Fancher

Do you often visit Zillow to find out what your house is worth on the market? I’ve recently learned the inaccuracy of what you think your home is valued at in using sites like Zillow. This first post in our Selling Your Home Series talks about Getting the Numbers from a reputable source so you are properly prepared to price your home right. Here is what Renee Burrows says about Getting the Numbers. “Online home value calculators are a very popular way to... Read more

Vinegar Fruit Wash Using a Salad Spinner

Last updated on: February 20, 2013 at 11:08 am By Jennifer Fancher

There are tons of tutes on Pinterest that teach you how to disinfect your fruits and vegetables using a 1:1 vinegar to water ratio. I’ve even tried them, placing my beloved fruit in a vinegar wash in my sink. Then I bought some berries and for some reason, it seems very unappetizing cleaning them in my sink. My father recently had strict diet restrictions that prevented him from eating berries simply due to the pesticides and how dirty certain fruits... Read more

Star Wars Room Hovercraft Bed

Last updated on: January 14, 2013 at 2:24 pm By Jennifer Fancher

Is that bed floating??? No, I didn’t go all Houdini on you. Our oldest boy was a HUGE Star Wars fan. Not only is Rowdy a HUGE fan, but he is also HUGE! Not even on the height charts, people! My then 9 year old was too big for his twin bed, so we upsized his bed to a queen. This was our starting point. You can click here to see my first post about his Star Wars room. I... Read more
