I had such a strong vision for these cute nesting tables that I began working on them before I realized I hadn’t taken a photo in their original state. To be honest, there was nothing wrong with them. They were just ordinary, boring and had no character, but I knew they would look extraordinary and […]

Kids’ Western Table and Chairs Restyle
This cute little set would be perfect in a child’s room, but would also blend well in other living areas of your home. It didn’t start out that way though… This was a junk find I picked up this summer. The surface looked like a child had scribbled just about everywhere with markers. I’m thinking […]
DIY Shabby Chic Desk Transformation
This desk was pretty rough, but I have definitely restyled worse. I am pretty sure the man at the yard sale thought I was nuts. He couldn’t imagine it was salvageable so he sold it to me for a dollar. Yep, one dollar. One of the drawers needed to be put back together, it was […]
DIY Shabby Chic Trunk Lid Coffee Table I love, love, love the way this turned out! Yep, if you read my previous post you have already seen this photo. That was a collection post of various projects I had made for an upcoming craft show. Now that the show is over I have time to […]
Wow! Just like the kitchen, this makeover was dramatic! I’ve actually had this done for a few weeks, but other deadlines prevented me from getting this posted.

Woven Chair Seat
Woven Chair Seat I picked this chair up at a local auction a couple of weeks ago. There were a lot of chairs at the sale, but there was a bunch of competition with the bidding. I prefer cheap, so I patiently waited. I finally snagged this one. I actually think the other bidders took […]
Twin Baby Blankets and Totes I’ve reached an age in life when all of the kids of my friends are having babies. Okay, maybe I’ve been that age for a little while now, but I like to think it just happened. 😉 Recently I received an invitation to a baby shower of one of those […]
Restyled Doll Furniture
Restyled Doll Furniture I’m still here! I know it has been forever since I last posted and I am truly sorry about that. Recently my best friend passed away following heart surgery. Sitting down to write anything has been extremely difficult, but here goes . My husband and I went to an auction last month […]
Antiqued Western End Table I picked up this little gem a few weeks ago at auction. Okay, “gem” may be too strong of a word, but let’s just say I saw potential. Paint. Yep, I love me some paint. After sanding, I gave the table a couple coats of white paint. I, of course, […]
