I found this bench at the thrift store for $5. Can you believe that?? I thought it was so adorable, but my husband, ummm notsomuch. He seriously wanted to put it by the curb for trash pick up. Shame on him! And I’m sorry, this has to probably be one of the worst “before” photos [...]

Remember my “Difference Molding Can Make” post? If you don’t, I’ll be nice and show you the after picture again when we put up the chair rail and framed boxes… I liked it, but wanted to try something different. We have textured walls, so I was a little scared to try this, but I have [...]

Yes, that’s right, sewing. I’ve been wanting to learn for a long time, and I finally did. We’ve had a brand spankin’ new machine my mom got us for Christmas that hasn’t been touched really since then. But last week a sweet friend of mine, Sherri, came over and taught me. She showed me how [...]

Well, luckily you can’t see my tears through your computer screen, but my little princess is going to be 1 year old on Friday. It’s been very emotional for me planning her little party. I just can’t believe she’s almost 1. It doesn’t take much for me to cry or tear up. I’ve been tearing [...]

Remember this drawer I found for a buck at the resale shop? Well, I got to thinking how this would make a great candle holder! Then my instinct was right, and stumbled upon this lovely color of spray paint… Ohhh Catalina Mist, how I love you! I saw this shade at Hobby Lobby and [...]

This was probably the easiest little project I’ve done to date. But it’s sooo cute!! I had these 2 books that I got at a resale shop recently… Well I took that blue one and fixed her up! First I spray painted it Heirloom White. I did tape around all of the pages so I [...]

I did another little project over the weekend with the 4 remaining little flower pots I found at the thrift store recently. You can click here for that post. We have this area above our front door in the entryway… So I decided to use my 4 little pots and sit them on the ledge [...]

Have you inherited an ugly piece of furniture whenever you got married? I have. It was our dining room buffet table. I’ve lived with it for 4 years now, and it was time for an overhaul when I found this hutch at Goodwill to go on top of it. Goodwill had it marked for $99, [...]

…until I did a search on Google and saw that these have been made…like all over the place! I should have never searched to make sure. What a buzz-kill! It was just too clever that someone other than me thought this idea up. Haha. But, I’m still going to show you! So, remember one of [...]
