  I have a few garden projects in the works right now, but they are not quite ready. I can’t wait to share  them with you,  in the meantime I thought we could pour a cup of coffee {go ahead, I will get one too ok, ready?} and look at some beautiful ideas out there…

How To Make A Thrifty Jewelry Organizer

March 13, 2013

I love a good deal, so much so that I recently realized I have spent very little in recent years on jewelry. I am not talking the Tiffany box jewelry, or tennis bracelet jewelry.  But good quality, fun pieces that  reflect my style and are not so trendy I won’t want to wear them in…

March 11, 2013

Next to the thrill of the hunt, is surely the thrill of creating something for next to nothing. Spray paint is one of my favorite ways to transform and renew something old or outdated. In this case, I had two square plastic garden planters from Dollar Tree that looked a bit too new. I picked…

Upcycled Sofa Table

March 8, 2013

I have been looking for a narrow dresser or low sofa table  for a while with no success.  I have seen some great  pieces but nothing that would fit behind my monster sectional and define the space between it and my dining  area.  So what do we do when we cannot find what we want?…

How To Make A Junky 3-Tiered Stand

March 2, 2013

While thrifting last weekend with my crafty bff Donna, I found a pair of really cool artichoke finials.  Sometimes I am not sure how I am going to use the stuff I find, but this time I knew… one of them would make a nice little topper for a DIY tiered stand. Paired with a…

DIY Burlap Spring Wreath

February 25, 2013

Spring is almost here, and I don’t know about you but I am so ready! I cannot wait to see the first tiny shoots push thru the dirt and bloom for us. The bright yellow daffodils, longer days, and more yard sales of course. While we wait a few bright, pretty projects can surely tide…

DIY Apothecary Jars

February 21, 2013

  I found two aqua drawer pulls while shopping with my daughter recently and instantly fell in love with them.  But there were only two  left, and I didn’t need them but home they came. Inspiration hits eventually. I have seen so many pretty cupcake liner holders and decorated jars online I thought I would…

Chevron Painted Kitchen Stool

February 18, 2013

Along with a few other pieces that I have inherited lately, this loan oak stool was among the lot. She was ok like she was, but I could see some fun potential in her.  So out came the paint and sandpaper. I would probably not do a huge area in a busy, bright print like…

Vintage Grain Sack Painted Stool

February 8, 2013

Sometimes a piece of furniture doesn’t  need a whole face lift.  What it needs is a  quick nip and tuck to make it perfect for us. It may be a chair that you have recovered and painted more times than you can remember. Or a side table that has survived every move  and decorating style…
