Hello there, please forgive me for going mia for a couple weeks, we have had the most unpleasant of winter colds and tummy bugs passed around. I think we may be out of the woods, and boy am I am glad! But as I came up for air I finished an upcycle that I am…
How to make a wooden wall sconce-fixer upper style
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…
Chindi style no-sew area rag rug
I have had a stack of these Dollar Tree rag rugs FOREVER. They are in the “bin of conviction” (the things I HAD TO HAVE to make something cool then they sit for a long time) Yeah, that bin. Tell me I’m not the only one who may have more than one of these…

Peanut Noodles with Chicken (gluten free!)
I love noodles, cover them in a million different sauces or leave them buttered with some parsley and you can count me in. And what’s better than combining a delicious peanut sauce with tender pieces of chicken? Well you could make it gluten free. And make it in less than 30 minutes. Now we’re…
