Part of the master bedroom redo involved updating these nightstands. These are actually living room end tables, but we use them as our nightstands. They serve their purpose, they are pretty (now they are), and they were free! I’ve actually had them many years. They came with my furniture set my mom bought for me when I moved out into… View Post
Lace Bottles
I was inspired by a picture I saw in my Flea Market style magazine. It was a picture of a vase wrapped partially in a doily. Doilies are popping up everywhere! Now, I didn’t have any doilies on hand, but I did have some white lace fabric left over from another project. Here is the bottle I did. And yes,… View Post
The Difference Molding Can Make
I love molding (moulding?). I want it everywhere in our house. Why don’t builders make it a standard feature instead of an upgrade? I think the housing market would be much better if so. :) I first added it to a big entry wall which also adjoins the family room. Here is the wall before, and this is pretty much… View Post
Sneak Peek…
I’ve been a busy bee this week. I’m working on our master bedroom and can’t wait for it to be finished and show you! I still have to add a few finishing touches, but hopefully by next week I can do a reveal. :) I have big plans for our room that will come in the very near future, but… View Post
Dollar Store hurricanes
Have you seen these candle holders from Williams Sonoma before? Aren’t they pretty? Way too pricey though. Here is a knock off version that will cost you only $2 to make! I first saw this idea from Get Your Martha On when she made her version here. They looked so beautiful so I just had to try it. The… View Post
Thrifty media cabinet turned display unit
Ever have one of those projects that goes great in your head, but turns out to be a doozy? Yea, this was one of them for me. Luckily though, I am pleased with the final result. :) I went to the thrift store last week and spotted this lovely thing. It was $35 and in perfect condition. I know $35… View Post
Concealing the clutter
Do you have an entertainment center that has glass cabinets like we do? The kind where you can see all the junk gaming systems, unorganized DVD’s, and anything else that landed in there? Well, I hate clutter as much as I hate roaches. Actually, I am terrified of roaches, but that’s for a different post on a different blog that… View Post
Interchangeable cheese dome cloche
I jumped on the cheese dome turned cloche bandwagon. They are all over bloggyland, but I first saw Allison at House of Hepworths transform hers. You can find her post about it here, and it’s a fabulous tutorial. She is just too good and I heart her like I heart chalkboards. I found these at Goodwill. Aren’t those Candlesticks gorgeous?… View Post
New window treatments I made, and breakfast room redo
Warning, this is kind of a long post, but y’all like pictures and how-to’s right? Okay, good. :) Our breakfast room used to look like this… Please take note of the extremely low curtain rod, high water drapes, and the breakfast table too big for the breakfast room. Geesh, this is almost embarrassing showing. But, I’m just keepin’ it real…. View Post
I heart chalkboards
Chalkboards are a great way to add that touch of coziness in any room of your home. It’s a fun way to write sweet notes, honey-do’s, your favorite scripture, the dinner menu, and the list goes on. They are also very inexpensive to make which makes them even better. I buy the chalkboard spray paint at Home Depot and it’s… View Post
