About




Hi I'm Alisha! Welcome to my blog. I am a mother to little A and B, and baby C. I was raised around the computer as a child and grew up with an extensive background of artistic proportions. In high school, I took classes such as Apparel, which further grew my love for crafting. In my spare time, I search my surroundings for anything inspiring. I am mostly inspired by my three sweet boys, the cutest kiddos and baby I have ever seen (not being biased or anything (; ). Feel free to stay on the blog as long as you'd like or even contact me!

Closet to Reading Nook Transformation

My dear ol' mother has a home studio for her photography business. It is pretty impressive how she created a business space from two separate rooms. In her waiting room, she wanted to add a space just for children without taking up too much room. She had a cluttered closet that was overflowing with things that had no place in the house. My mother came up with the idea of a reading nook after completely cleaning out the closet. Once it was bare, she was able to see the potential. Before the conversion of the closet, the only distraction she had for the children of her clients was a small basket filled with toys hidden underneath a chair. Needless to say, there was not much for children in the room. Unfortunately, we don't have any cluttered before pictures of the closet to show you, so you'll just have to take my word for it! It was M-E-S-S-Y! It was almost unusable as a closet, more like a hoarder's paradise! There were shelves attached to the walls that she removed...

IKEA Hack/LATT Table and Chairs Turned Storage Table

Little A had a mishap with the table top falling down and hit underneath his eye. My poor little fellow. So, please learn from my mistake! When Little A was about a year old, we purchased him an IKEA LATT table so that he would have his own table to read, draw and pretty much learn on. That thing has been through so many stages of his life. He has eaten on it, subsequently doused in water  painted on, colored on and just plain had fun on. Recently, it started to become very, for lack of a better word, sad . The particle board top was bubbling up and would not get clean, the legs, sides and chairs had paint and color marks, and the whole table had seen better days. Big A wa...

KALLAX Hack/Painting IKEA furniture

* This post contains affiliate links, which means that if you click on one of the product links, I’ll receive compensation at no added cost to you.  Oh boy! It's been over a year since the last time that I updated here. A lot has happened throughout that year. We recently moved into a townhome style community and my husband and I both started new jobs. We aren't the only ones changing it seems though. IKEA seems to be spitting out new products, and almost identicals of older products. A few months ago, Big A, Little A and I visited our closest IKEA in search of the EXPEDIT. When we walked into the self-serve area, were we surprised to see not only the EXPEDIT but an almost identical unit. This new unit, the KALLAX, was slightly cheaper, but seemed to be the long lost twin of the EXPEDIT. Seeing as it was cheaper, we went ahead and purchased the KALLAX. Let me just say, it is definitely worth the buy! You see, since moving, we got rid of our TV stand that was unfortuna...
