October 27, 2017

Remember the left over pre-fab white bead board from the back of the farmhouse church pew?     Yep, we found a way to use the last of it. I have wanted to make something I can hang these Mason jar holders on for quite a while, but to date have just incorporated them on…

October Vignettes- Apples + aqua dining table setting

October 4, 2017

  While we are still having some warm weather in the Pacific Northwest, Fall is certainly upon us. The hydrangeas have turned from their gorgeous blues to soft green and pink tones. The evenings have a chill that creeps in a little earlier than it did a few weeks ago.

September 28, 2017

  Since we are still having days that are in the mid 70’s I don’t have the heart to buy a truckload of pumpkins only to see them go bad mid-October. There is nothing like an early pumpkin purchase gone wrong to cure you of ever wanting to purchase them too early again. While I…

Painted herringbone coffee table

August 3, 2017

Hello friends! I seem to be on a find-dated-furniture-and-paint-it-every-color-you-love kick the last few weeks. But a solid piece of furniture that needs a facelift is so hard to pass up!

DIY geometric painted brick vase

July 27, 2017

  I am so not ready for Fall. Well, that’s not entirely true. I do love Fall, and Fall decorating and thrifty Fall crafts, but before I am ready for PUMPKIN EVERYTHING I need some more summer. This week I popped into JoAnn’s and saw this pretty faux bloom in soft pinks and tan with…
