DIY Boho Chic Firewood Holder

October 8, 2015

      I recently cleaned out about 85% of my garage. Y’all it was kind of scary. And cathartic. And I don’t need to go hunting for cool stuff to upcycle for a while since I had my own thrift store already and didn’t know it! It has been a monkey on my back…

DIY Painted Canvas Pouf-Storage cube-Footstool

March 6, 2015

I know that’s kind of a complicated name but this little number can be used multiple ways so the only accurate name I could come up with was “Canvas Pouf-Storage Cube-Footstool.”  And if you are the kind of person to stand on your furniture (yeah me too) instead of finding a ladder in the garage…
