PALLET CHRISTMAS CARD/ PHOTO HOLDER
I love getting Christmas cards and displaying them, but I never really had a place to put them. So I decided to grab a pallet from my usual place (the dumpster area at a cement plant-they always have really old looking pallets and are totally fine with me taking them). I used a crowbar to…

UPGRADING CLOTHING WITH PATCHES
I love going through my closet, finding clothes that I don’t wear for some reason or another, and then upgrading them a little so that I will wear them. And lately I have been adding patches to just about everything. It’s such a simple upgrade, but can totally transform a piece of clothing. In the…

SCREENED PORCH REVEAL
During the summer we spend so much time on our porch. We eat dinner here every night. It’s probably my favorite place in our house. I love to watch storms while sitting on the porch. But because it is outside, every spring when I go to clean the porch, it looks pretty beat up from…

MASON JAR WALL VASES
I love having plants and flowers in a room, but with kids it’s sometimes hard to have them on tables or the floor. Adding these wall mounted flower vases is a great way to add flowers to a room and decorate a wall. These are similar to my diy chore chart I made. To make:…

PAINT STICK SUNBURST CLOCK
I needed to put a clock up in my screened in porch and I had all of those leftover paint sticks, so I thought I would put them to use. I have seen sunburst clocks and mirrors like this and think they are so cute and so much better than just putting a plain old…
