I'm Amy, the Modern Chemist, and here's my hypothesis: Each one of us wants a beautiful, cheerful home that suits the way we live and doesn't cost a fortune. With a little hard work and creativity (and perhaps some help from me!) that home can be the one you are in today.

Are you ready to fall in love with where you live? Because class is about to begin. Put on your white coat, grab your safety goggles, and roll up your sleeves. Together, let's observe, measure, experiment, rearrange, paint, power tool, and create until we prove this hypothesis is true.

Upstairs, downstairs. When we renovated this kitchen eight summers ago, we decided to put in a pocket door between the kitchen and the mudroom. I can't even remember our reason for it. As time went on, we laughed to ourselves because we never, ever shut that pocket door. UNTIL BABIES. Do all babies love to play with shoes? Because as soon as our babes can crawl, they head right for the mudroom to play with every pair of shoes they can get their hands (and mouths) on. And we are in that stage with the little guy. So this pocket door is totally redeeming itself. 🙌🏻 It doesn't get closed often, but it sure comes in handy for those few specific months. #sanitysaver Happy Monday! We have our last swim class of the summer this afternoon, and I'm thinking I should take inventory of the kids' clothing so I can know what to buy for fall. What are you up to today? He's camouflaging again. But seriously, we kind of are hiding out in his room together. Just the two of us. ❤️ Easing into Saturday. 😎 A new neighbor girl moved in next door and the girls have been like 😍. They all played together beautifully last night and this morning and I am just plain thankful. Reminds me of playing with you, @whitneyelizabeth42! You know how it is. You buy a backup for the backup and before you know it she has all three at once. These "cousins" are well loved, but you can tell which one the most because he can't hold up his head anymore. 💕 It's move-in day! 🙌🏻 😝 Over the weekend, I finished painting the inside of the playhouse, so we brought out some housewarming goodies to the new pad. It was properly swept and then the girls took turns putting each other down for playhouse naps after all that hard work. 😴 The little one would wear this pink dress 24/7 if she could. 💕#childhoodunplugged #momswithcameras So often, my mind buzzes with project ideas and things I would like to accomplish around the house. Of course, I have more ideas than time (don't we all? 🙂) but I figured it would help to get these ideas out of my brain and written down somewhere so I can prioritize. For all you list makers: what is your method? Do you have a favorite app? A certain planner/method? Or a good old notebook and pen? 🤔 I just hit publish on a blog post with instructions for installing your own pea gravel patio (link in profile). Truly, you can do this. 👊🏻 Let me know if you have questions or just need a pep talk to get going! 🙌🏻
