The trick to making it work is to style the shelves with kitchen essentials that are regularly used and to be vigilant about keeping free of clutter ~

If you are planning to have a Cinco de Mayo party or are looking for a fun decoration for a birthday or other kind of celebration, then consider incorporating a pinata. I just found a great resource for already-made or custom-designed pinatas that are so special I would use them at a party that we were planning; Dale’ Pinatas, on Etsy. Dale’ means “hit it” in Spanish ~ just make sure that everyone stands back during this activity so that your whack does not end up on America’s Funniest Home Videos!

One of the easiest & most cost effective updates you can give your home is to paint your front door a new color. It instantly improves your home’s curb appeal. Skillfully picking a bolder, non-neutral color that complements the exterior style of your house can give it a fresh & very current look.

The color yellow is associated with happiness, optimism & clarity. It is a color that signals activity & energy. A dose of yellow in an interior, or exterior, space can punch things up unlike any other color ~
