What Do People Have To Say About My Organization Course?
“This course was instrumental in helping me organize my space as well as my time. As a busy mom, I have a better grasp on what my days need to include so that I can enjoy my family rather than spend my time spinning my wheels cleaning up after everyone.”
“The Balanced Home Course helped me to be the “professional organizer” for my family! Simple steps to follow, check lists, printable labels, suggestions and worksheets will keep you on track to successfully maintain your own balanced home.”
“I am pretty sure I have solved more issues with the seven layers and clarity tool than I have in 6 months of therapy!! I think this course is going to help much more than my home. Thanks Amy!!!!”
When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!”

Hi Amy, it won’t connect to the link, it keeps saying the page is unavailable. Please could you email me the templates to me. Thank you so much. They are just adorable!
My email is: [email protected]
Love your work and creativity, you are amazing!
I will have my assistant send them over!
Another cute Idea for the Starbucks bottles. I have quite a collection of the bottles started, think Ill make some of these to take to my college kids!
I am a bit obsessed with them myself! I hope your kids love them!
Oh my word you have the most adorable little cutesy wootsy ideas ever!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL! That seriously made me laugh out loud. I like that word! Thanks so much Jessica!
these are so stinkin’ cute Amy!
so cute, amy!!!
These is adorable! I definitely have to do this for Easter. :)
I dont have a facebook account and i was wonder a different way i could print these two things?
I am sorry. If you send me an email I would be happy to send them to you.
Can you use a different kind of jar
Oh for sure! Any bottle will do. You will just have to adjust the little band for the ear that goes around the mouth of the jar. Make it larger or smaller depending on how large it needs to be to fit around the circumference.
Where did you get your drink carrier from?
It came as a four pack of Starbucks Frappucino’s from Target. It came with the carrier case. I just covered it with scrapbook paper.
Oh, that’s cool. I bought my bottles at sam’s so I guess I need to get creative with that part… I am making a bunch and giving them as neighbor favors for Easter at my apartment complex! :) I am in love with this concept!
Hi, First of all let me tell you this is such a sweet idea … I collect frap bottles too …
Can you please share your trick for removing the label from the bottles and also the glue residue? I never seem to be able to get the stickiness off …so I resign myself to let the labels be …
I do hope you have the time to reply to this one.
Thanks,
Vindya
A good way that I find to get the labels off is to take a hairdryer to the labels and warm it up and that loosens the sticky then they should peel right off. I do it with store price stickers all the time.
Great idea Amanda! I will have to try it. I have always used goo gone and it works like a charm. You can get it at your local big box hardware store.
These are adorable and I would love to make some but I’ve tried every which way that I could and for many times but cannot get the patterns for the ears and labels. Please help. Thanks.
Hi! Love this craft idea! I can’t seem to get the downloads for either the labels or the ears. I liked your Facebook page, but it didn’t bring those up. Is there anyway you could email me the link or repost it? Thanks so much!!
Hi…love.love.love your idea! Want to make them for Easter but can’t get your facebook links to work. Woud you email to me? Thanks…keep the cute ideas comin’!!:)
Same problem with not being able to print Easter cut outs. Links will not open, please email or repost-great idea:))
I am so sharing this on my FB page. It’s really, really cute!
amazing
These are so adorable !!!
Thank you very much for sharing this fantastic idea. I have featured it on my blog today at http://www.thatcutelittlecake.com/2014/03/pin-of-week-easter-bunny-gift-jars-by.html
I have tried to download other printables that you have and have not been able to.it just says page unavailable.Also there is no spot on the Facebook page that says previous downloads.What can I do to fix this?Could you possibly email it to me~thanks
You have to be on a computer to download it. Is that the problem? Also you can try refreshing the page. Let me know if that still doesn’t work.
Thanks Amy….you were right….you need to be on a computer and not an ipad to download the printables . Your work is amazing…thanks !!!
Oh good! I am so glad you were able to get it to work!
Cute idea I would love to do this, but from past experience, the people I associate with don’t seem to appreciate the work involved in this kind of stuff. Maybe I need to find new friends…ha ha… I just have a question that’s really no big deal but out of curiosity I am wondering what you do with the stuff in the bottles since you don’t drink coffee?
My sister in law and my friend drink coffee. So I just save it in a jar for them and drop them off a little treat!
This has been one of our more popular pins on Pinterest. Everyone absolutely loves it! We plan to showcase it tomorrow on our FaceBook Page. Hope that is ok! Thanks for sharing!
Susan
I love these… they are so cute. I can’t wait to make them with my little guy when he gets older. I hope you don’t mind, I shared them over on my blog post – The 25 Best DIY Easter Ideas! Happy Easter!

I can’t pull up the printable so for the Starbucks bunny. The ears and the labels.
Can I make a suggestion? First, stop shopping at Target. They are a horrible business to support, if you look into their business practices in regards to procuring merchandise and how they treat their employees as well as their customers in regards to body images etc. Even more notable, their total lack of sustainab limit practices is appalling. They are one of the only big box retailers that only recycle cardboard. They throw hundreds of thousands of pounds of plastic, including their bags, and food into landfills and all the display cribs, and other furniture type items and fixtures all get thrown into the trash including metal, wood and plastic. They care ZERO for our environment, so by continuing to shop there you are supporting the destruction of our Earth by a totally negligent mass retailer. Sams club and Walmart recycle all the above mentioned items and donate all food or compost all inedible food. They also do not photoshop their adds to encourage body image issues for young women nor do they refuse to carry plus size clothes in their stores like Target.
Secondly, those 4 pack starbucks bottles are almost $11 at Target. You can buy a CASE OF 12 at Sams club for $13, and they are often on sale for $3 off instant savings there. Everytime I’ve purchased I was able to get them for $10, less than a dollar a bottle. Saving your readers on a craft and providing them a positive direction for shopping rather than steering them towards a despicable retailer.
What is the best way to get the labels off the Starbucks bottles? I have some put aside, but the outside where the labels were are very sticky.
I like to use goo gone!
good day to you –just saw your adorable bottle bunnies and I am new to the computer world so am having a bit of trouble finding you on facebook to acquire the print outs is there a possible of you sending them to me on my email or another method—would love to make them for my grandchildren…thank you Linda
