Old Wooden Lamp Gets Revived!!

I really can’t wait to share this!  After my dad passed away, we were going through piles and piles of STUFF.  I came across this old dirty lamp in the shed.  I thought it was strange that he kept it, especially in the shed.  I told my hubby to hold onto it so I could […]

Kitchen Valances

Almost Friday!!!  Another long week of cold weather, nasty wind, and sick kids.  I’m sure ready for winter to be over!  However, this cold weather is letting me get a lot of ‘In-house’ stuff done.  Which is the plus side. A few weeks ago, I asked for suggestions on which fabric to use for kitchen […]

Two-Toned Painted White Bookshelf…Perfect For Girl’s Room!

Happy Friday Everyone!!  Finally nice weather and the snow has stopped.  At least for a day or two.  And out here, if it’s not the weather slowing me down, it’s 3 sick kiddos! I have been working on the kids’ rooms (still!).   For my daughter’s room, I made two bookshelves.  I asked her what color she wanted them to be.  […]

Outdoors Here In The Country… A Frosty Morning!

Happy Wednesday!  It has been a long week already.  Sick kids, snow storms, just the norm. But I woke up this morning and looked out the windows.  Such beautiful frosty trees!  What a wonderful treat.  I wouldn’t consider myself a photographer and I probably never will.  But I love capturing the moments like these. I […]

Light Switch Cover Makeover!

I’ve been slowly getting little things done in each of the kids’ bedrooms.  On one wall, my daughter’s room has a little cluster of switches.  I thought I could dress them up a bit.  It was a lot easier than I thought too!  But I can’t help myself with these little details. What you will […]

Vanity Makeover, Before and After Photos

On my Facebook Page I posted a picture of some fabric and a purple vanity.  I asked which fabric to use on the bench that goes with it.  And boy oh boy, did I get some responses!  Thank you everyone!!!   I’m very indecisive.  It’s really a curse. Here is the before on this vanity. AFTER!!  […]

Chunky Chalkboard/Magnetic Board

I was out shopping around at a local hardware store, and my eye caught this wood.  It was rustic and the cuts weren’t straight.  My kind of rustic!!  So I had to go back a week later and take another look.  It was still pretty, so I bought a few pieces.  Not sure for what […]
