Summer Home Ideas

Hi friends! Happy Saturday. How was your week? We’ve had the coolest Spring here so far. But the weather is warming up and I’ve been spending time working on our yard and organizing inside! Today I am sharing some ideas that are perfect if your kids are getting out of school for Summer break!

New Project

entryway makeover

I shared our new rugs in our back patio last week. This weekend I am working on transforming our back entryway from cluttered mess to sleek, organized space! I bought these shoe cabinets to store our shoes and you can’t even tell that they are shoe cabinets. They look like a sleek, beautiful console table. And they are only 7 inches deep so it really makes our hallway seem so much wider. I am writing a post all about the transformation, but here’s a sneak peek. I will also be sharing an Instagram reel about it, so join me there @tatertotsandjello so you can see it! Here’s the before picture:

School’s Out Summer Kids Crafts

If your kids are just getting out for the summer, here are some fun ideas they will love!

3 Ingredient Safe Puffy Slime

Safe Puffy Slime Recipe

I loved how EASY it is to make. I also loved that it was warm enough for the kids to go outside and play with the slime LOL!

DIY Butter Slime

We have made probably 20 different types of slime. It’s so fun to make up new recipes. This is Ella’s favorite right now – Butter Slime! Why? Butter slime is fluffy and easy to play with but it has a softer, less sticky consistency.

This is such a fun idea! Kids can design their own art using corkboard and the best part is that they can take the pins out and make as many designs as they want!
