Laundry Room Chalkboard Printable


My laundry room has been in need of some cute decor for a while now. I saw this quote a while ago and loved it, so I decided to turn it into a chalkboard printable for my new laundry room shelf. Shortly after putting it on my shelf, my mom bought me another cute chalkboard laundry sign in the same font! It couldn't have worked out more perfectly.


Does your laundry room need a little sprucing up? I made both a horizontal and vertical version of the printable, depending on which you prefer. Each printable was created to fit in an 8x10 frame.

I can't wait to show you the rest of the laundry room makeover, once I decide what to do with it myself.

Happy Monday!

Blog Organization Part 3: Plan Posts


Today I am sharing my favorite part of my Blog Organizations Series!
These blog post planner pages have been absolutely amazing to use to keep track of each blog post.

There are quite a few different things this one page will do for you. First, it allows you to give each post a title, categories/labels, and assign a publishing date. Next, you can keep track of what publishing stage each post is in: draft, written, completed, scheduled, and published. Once your post is published, it also lets you keep track of which forms of social media you share each post on, as well as which link ups you share each post on. 


Honestly, I don't know how I would keep my posts straight if it wasn't for these cute post planner printables!

I left the Link Up section blank so you can fill in with your own list of link parties. On my pages, I have them sorted by the day that they start.

I hope you find these pages helpful!

Blog Organization, Part 2: Make Calendars


On Monday, I shared with you my blog post ideas and to-do list printables in Blog Organization Part 1. Today, I am sharing with you the importance of keeping a calendar.

To start, you will need to decide how many posts to write in one week. This will help you figure out the amount of posts you will need for the month. I decided on writing 3 posts a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. When I started hosting the Motivational Monday Link Party, instead of making that one of my three days I chose to add to my posts/week. I now try to schedule 4 posts/week. Of course, this isn't set in stone. Sometimes my readers gets more posts and sometimes they get less posts. 

Once you know how often you want to post, start filling in that calendar. First, schedule link parties, giveaways, scheduled link-ups, or other posts that must be posted on a specific day. Remember the lists I shared with you on Monday? Find your list of blog post ideas and finish filling in your calendar with those ideas.

As promised, here are the printable calendar outlines I have created to match my list of blog post ideas and my to-do list.

Blog Organization, Part 1: Create Lists



I am super excited for my posts this week, because I am sharing with you how I organize my blog posts, free printables and all! 

This is a system I have used for quite a while that works well for me. I will warn you, although I try really hard, I am not very good at writing my posts weeks in advance. It is not unusual for me to be scrambling the night before to come up with a post, but I am really trying to shy away from that and write all posts on the weekend. 

So with that being said, the first step to organizing my blog posts is Creating Lists.
I don't know about you but I love lists because I love to cross things off once I finish them. It makes me feel much more accomplished when I can see the progress I have made.

I have lists of blog post ideas.
Any time I think of an idea for a post, I jot it down on my master list of blog post ideas. If I'm not home, I'll put it in my "notes" app on my phone or jot it on a sticky note to add to my master list later. 

I have project to-do lists.
I have a never ending list of project ideas that I am always adding to. Keeping a list lets me look at all of my ideas on paper and pick which projects I want to tackle.  

I have blog to-do lists.
This list is a little shorter, but consists of things on the blog that need to be done, usually having to do with my blog design. Updating pages, adding pictures, changing sponsorships, etc. 




With all of these lists, it is no surprise that I like to keep them fun and colorful. I am sharing with you these chevron printables to create your own lists that you won't mind looking at over and over again.
