Just like Christmas isn’t about Santa Claus and reindeer, Easter isn’t about bunnies and eggs. That’s why I wanted to add a special Wood Easter Porch Sign into my holiday decor. Everyone meets special people in their lives and when they are gone, any number of things can spark memories. When a dear, high school […]

Upcycle your old vases into cute, galvanized, farmhouse-style vases using paint. Let’s face it, everybody has a few of these in their cupboards from flower delivers on special occasions. If you don’t, don’t sweat it. Quite honestly, they can be picked up at thrift stores and yard sales for pennies on the dollar. A quick […]
Oh the things my husband gifts me with…should I be offended? Nope! Not me! These kind of presents get my restyling DIY imagination going. He picked it up at a yard sale. It was pretty filthy, but it had great bones for a DIY bench makeover. Even the hinges on the lid were in pretty […]

Kids’ Table & Chairs {3 R’s: Reconstructed, Reimagined, Restyled}
This is the kind of project that starts with huge doubts, but I end up in love with the finished product. A friend was packing up and cleaning out her mother’s house after she relocated and asked if I would be interested in any of the things they were getting rid of. Honestly, I think […]
Recycle old forks and a teacup into a chic candle stand. My craft supplies are usually acquired secondhand, and I am always looking for ways to give them a new life. The silver forks in this project were a yard sale find. Since cleaning the tarnish off of silverware is not my thing, I […]

I have hoarded quite a few spindles in various shapes and sizes. Some came from table legs, some from a headboard and some from table lamps. Please pardon my photos on this project. I’ve been dealing with spring rainstorms all week. After cleaning and sanding all my spindles, I gave them a couple coats of […]

How to Transform Nesting Tables Into Adorable Farmhouse Decor
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 […]
This cool vanity was given to me by a sweet friend who is always thinking about me. I think she thought it was beyond help when she showed it to me, but it had good basic bones. I just knew it had beauty ready to come out. The bench, on the other hand, did not […]
