Do you LOVE a clean house, but struggle with maintaining a consistent cleaning routine? 

This was me for years, until I learned the 5 things to help make cleaning a house not feel SO overwhelming. I wanted my home to feel company ready all the time, but getting out the duster or mopping the floors felt like such a boring waste of time. 

In this episode I share the cleaning system that I use that feels sustainable, but even though I love it and it works for me, I'm not claiming that it's the best! You need to learn what's BEST for you and your family. So I guide you through 5 steps that are foundational for finding a system that works for you and is sustainable for your busy mom-life. 

And...today's my BIRTHDAY! Would you celebrate with me by leaving a review for the show?! Reviews help other women just like you find the show that keep you coming back time and time again. Chances are...if you like it, someone else will too. Reviews from you help make the show visible for others! And, once you leave a review, take a screenshot and share it with me over on Instagram @figanfarm!

A beautiful, cohesive looking home DOESN'T have to cost a lot!!

It just doesn't. It can...when you mis-spend or act before making a plan. But it doesn't have to. And the best part? You CAN have a Pottery Barn style  WITH Pottery Barn pieces and STILL decorate your home on a budget...just like my client Alissa is doing as she transforms her living room. 

Join us in this episode as a fly on the all as I meet with Alissa to discuss what to do with the alcoves that flank her fireplace. She shows off her brand new-to-her Room and Board glass front cabinet (that she bought on Facebook Marketplace) and we shop and plan together to design the other side of the fireplace. If you're curious how I saved her $3700 in a one hour conversation, here's the breakdown.

An identical Room & Board piece that would have added symmetry to her space would cost $3000+. We said no to that. Of the credenzas she was looking at, with each "no" she saved $500 and $200 respectively.

Are you BORED with your home?

Are you wanting change, a re-fresh, new furniture maybe...but the budget is tight? 

In today's episode, I'm talking about EIGHT ways you can beat the boredom in your home's design WITHOUT spending a single penny. Is it possible? ABSOLUTELY! 

Your homes are meant to be a delight. They're meant to be a place you LOVE coming home to. They're meant to be spaces where you are free to play, laugh, love, enjoy. And considering we spend a large portion of our time inside our homes...we should DELIGHT in them. But we don't always have the budget that we THINK we need to make the changes that will affect our space greatly. In this episode I'm challenging you to think again. 

These eight ideas are FREE ways you can beat the boredom in your home space. Try one or try all, but don't stay stuck living in a home you can't stand. It's time to act.

Which POWER tools should I start with?

If there's one question I get constantly, this would be one of them. That and...where do you find all the cheap stuff? I'm going to let you in on a little secret right now. When you have Pottery Barn style, but a Target budget, sometimes you have to DO IT YOURSELF!! Hence, the power tools.

When hiring out isn't an option, but you want to make change in your home, what is stopping you? With plenty of video tutorials out there, you may just need a little guidance on how to tip-toe your way into the DIY world so your confidence can grow project by project. 

In this episode, I'm sharing my top 5 power tools that have been so easy to use as I transform my home one room at a time into a home that I'm proud to call mine. From cordless drills to air compressors, this list of easy to handle power tools will quickly become 'novice' to you as you begin your DIY journey, tackling more difficult projects requiring more difficult tools. I also share my favorite must-have DIY supplies that are always within reach. 

Want to start building your arsenal of power tools and DIY supplies? Visit my blog for the tools and supplies that are hand tested and approved by fig & farm (at home)! www.figandfarmathome.com

Does the sound of "I'm BORED" have you pulling your hair out? 

Being at home with the kids during the summer can be really enjoyable, but for some mamas it can be really stressful. WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE KIDS ALL DAY?

It gets extra challenging if you have a job to do at home while the kids are there eating you out of house and home, requesting screen time constantly or saying "there's nothing to do" when you know full well that your toy bin is stock full! 

No matter which way we put it, summertime is a system interrupt from what you 'normally' do throughout the rest of the year. So, why NOT enjoy it?!

In this episode, I'm going back to my roots as a First Grade teacher and combining my many years of experience working with kids, my own home summer system that I developed to help ease my anxious son's transition to summertime schedule, and my desire to get work done while also having A LOT of fun with my boys. I'm sharing my top tips for you as a mama, and my tips for your kiddos as well!

Do you have a favorite HGTV show?

I'd venture to guess that if you listen to this podcast, chances are you may enjoy watching an HGTV home design show...or two! You're in good company - after all they're wonderful sources of inspiration when you're wanting to make small or big changes to your home. 

But what happens in the space between the inspiration and action? 

In today's episode, we're talking about how to navigate the often exciting, yet sometimes frustrating road of re-freshing your home based off of common sources of inspiration found on HGTV shows. 

You'll learn the questions to ask yourself BEFORE jumping into action to assess if you're ready and if the change your making is right for your home!

After listening, if you want help navigating the road to creating transformation in your home, and you'd like help designing an action-based road map from here to your end goal, book a Decorating S.O.S. call.
