five things Friday: hack it all edition

Inspired by how happy my recent Ikea dresser hack makes me every time I look at my dressed-up drawers, I took to Pinterest to pick out some more hacks for making all areas of life easier or fancier, from wardrobe to parenting to cooking - and of course one more Ikea one because gold Ikea hacks are just irresistible to me.

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

I see some excellent quick weekend projects here - the spray painted hangers would make my stuffed coat closet feels so much fancier (and maybe would inspire me to clean it out!), the tension rod cleaning storage would make things so much easier to access under my sink (would it make me actually clean more? Up for debate), and the parchment paper recipes would make dinner time so much easier too - no dishes! The "buy yourself some free time" parenting hack of colander + pipe cleaners could come in quite handy on a Saturday too...

Any other great life hacks to share?

  1. Tension rod under the sink is genius! Who cares if it would make you clean more or not because at least the cleaning supplies would look clean and organized! ;)

  2. Oh that tension rod under the sink--how clever is that!? And I could see Jona going to town on those pipe cleaners + colander, what a great idea! Of course I'll have to check out the parchment dinners too, I love an easy clean-up meal!

  3. I've seen the under-sink rod hack before and have always thought I should do it! Add that to my 'nesting' list haha!!

  4. The pipe cleaners/colander thing has been in the back of my mind for a while! I need to just buckle down... anything to keep a toddler entertained longer than 5 minutes ;) Hope you all had a great weekend!!

  5. Pocket dinners are the best! Just got back from camping, and your post is a great reminder to add them to the regular rotation.
