Better Homes & Gardens Stylemaker Event

October 2, 2019 by Ashley Mayes 5 Comments

I just got back home from the Better Homes & Gardens Stylemaker Event in New York City and wanted to share with you all a bit about the event and some things to do in NYC in general. 

First of all, it’s such an honor to be named as one of the “Stylemakers” of the year by Better Homes and Gardens. This is the third year that I’ve had the opportunity to be invited to the event and my third year going. The event is always held in an amazing location in NYC and it’s great to be able to mingle with the editors, hear the inspiring speakers and hug my blog besties in person. There’s nothing like IRL connection. Seriously!

What I’ve Enjoyed, Loved and Used in June

June 28, 2019 by Ashley Mayes 2 Comments

This is my version of a month review… but just my favorites in June (with a bit of April and May in there too because I skipped the round-ups the past two months). Whether you are here for DIY Projects, family life, traveling, books or something else; I think you’ll find something that sparks your interest in these monthly recaps!

  • Another piece to the guest bedroom got marked off the list when I shared the tutorial for how to install a door knob. I’m hoping to get hardwood flooring installed in here this year as well, but that’s probably it for this space until 2020!
  • Want to learn how to sell on Facebook Marketplace successfully? I shared all my secrets. 
  • We are still chugging along on the powder bathroom. If you get my newsletter (if not, sign up to receive it plus get tips that I send out every week!), then you know that we ran out of tile and it took forever for it to come back in. Well, I can officially say that the tiling is done. Yay! 
  • A lighting update in the kitchen still has me swooning.
  • Lego storage is the bomb. That’s all. 
  • Finding off the rack bamboo shades but that are in the wrong size? I have you covered with how to cut bamboo blinds. Or, another bamboo shade tutorial that’s a $10 hack! 
  • Greyson and I worked on building out the entryway closet. I had thought that a bench and hooks would be a good fit in there. While Luke was in London on work, we got busy. Two months later (today) we finally finished it. Can’t wait to share but here’s a sneak peek!Coat closet organization.

How to Sell on Facebook Marketplace

June 19, 2019 by Ashley Mayes 1 Comment

I’ve been buying and selling on Facebook Marketplace over the past year and have figured out the best way to sell on Facebook Marketplace. Learn photography tips for making your inventory sell as well as must-haves for every listing, when to list an item on Facebook and more. 

Years ago, I sold bigger items on Craigslist and did pretty well on there. We’ve sold multiple cars, bought multiple pieces of outdoor furniture, etc. When Facebook Marketplace came around, I was tired of buying and selling and just didn’t use it. Then, last year, I tried to use it and found it to be really annoying. But, after Suzannah and I did a whole podcast episode on Buying and Selling on Facebook and Craigslist, I got the urge to try to use Facebook as a selling tool again. 

After a lot of trial and error, and dealing with people who have no boundaries for messaging you or the amount of messaging going back and forth over a $15 item, I finally figured out what works best and how to actually make selling on Facebook Marketplace work for me.
