My entryway has been a room I have struggled with for quite some time. It just never seemed to function the way I wanted it to; there was never enough storage, the layout always seemed awkward and it was dark and gloomy (The gloom could have been caused by the burgundy paint, lol...I went through … Continue reading Entryway Up-Cycle
This has been one of the most challenging and most rewarding projects I have taken on to date. I turned an old entertainment center into a play kitchen for my granddaughter. (Thank you Pinterest for the inspiration!) I had been gathering supplies for quite some time and I finally found a suitable entertainment center at … Continue reading Kid Kitchen Up-cycle
I thought I'd take a few moments on this snowy Monday to share my most recent Christmas decor project. I live in an old farmhouse and I have always loved the pictures of houses where there is a wreath in every window. However, I do not like the idea of spending money on all those … Continue reading Outdoor Christmas Wreaths
I've been spending some time out in the barn this fall getting my workshop set up. (So has my loving husband. I'm so glad he puts up with my shenanigans!) I've had a shop out there for a while but it wasn't set up to my liking; I was just using it as is and … Continue reading My Workshop

I'm not sure what to call them, but I'm pretty happy with the end result. The first one is a wall mounted piece that cost me about three dollars. It … Continue reading Green Thumb

I have been working on some home redecorating projects and some smaller projects that I need to write about soon. In next week, I should have my entryway project finished and I'll be able … Continue reading In The Works
Life has been busy. I started a new job and am studying for certification exams; it hasn't left much time for creating or writing. But today I got inspired. My daughter got married in May and like most newlyweds, she doesn't have many Christmas decorations and she loves Christmas...so I made her some. The letters … Continue reading Feeling inspired
So this concussion business has really slowed down every single part of my life, so I'm pretty pumped that I finally finished a project. I had to do it in small chunks because of the fatigue and aggravating brain issues I've been experiencing but I'm happy with the end result. So here is the before: … Continue reading A Finished Product!
I have been busy collecting items to redo and reinvent. I'm excited to get started and I wanted to give you a little peek at the items i will be attacking soon. There are plenty more in the works, but I'll save those for later.
