The Creek Line House Homekeeping Tips and Tricks ArchivesAfter the success of my somewhat temporary cheapo makeover on the bathroom, I’ve now got my sights set on the Master Bedroom.

I expected a cheeky remark or two about the plainness of the packaging, but I knew Kennedy wouldn’t care one bit once she got to start finding out what was inside..But you know what?

Not a cheeky remark was heard the day I brought these baskets down and put them out for Kennedy to see.All I got was some twinkling of the eyes and some excited jumping up and down.. And of course questions about which bag held the silly putty.Hey, it’s what’s inside that counts!.

What’s a fantel you ask?

It’s just my little table that I use as a fake mantel until we get a real-live, grown-up mantel of our own some day.But that gets messy.

My hunter boots aren’t the perfect, shiny, Pinteresty outfit boots anymore, but I do need to keep them clean so I can run into town when I need to without looking like a crazy mud-monster..So here’s how I clean them!.

First start out with some hunter boots that have seen a nice afternoon of weed-pulling, or toddler-chasing just after a rain storm.OK, so these weren’t that caked in mud at the time that I took these pictures, but trust me, there are times when I’m pretty sure there’s about 10 lbs of mud stuck to the bottom of each boot.. Look how ridgy those boots are!
