  • PALLET CHRISTMAS CARD/ PHOTO HOLDER

    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…

  • TUTORIAL :: DISTRESSED VINYL DECAL BOARD

    TUTORIAL :: DISTRESSED VINYL DECAL BOARD

    Like I mentioned yesterday, Icon Wall Stickers sent me some vinyl to work with. I had a hard time deciding what to pick because there were so many different things I could have done with a vinyl sticker, but I chose this one. I picked size XS and in gold. I wanted to mount it…

  • DIY MOROCCAN POUF

    DIY MOROCCAN POUF

    Moroccan poufs are every where these days, you may have seen them here or here. I think they are such a fun accent for a room. I would buy one for every room in my house if I could… but I can’t because they are SO expensive, like $150+. I have thought about splurging on…

  • {DIY} SNACK STAND

    {DIY} SNACK STAND

    A few weeks ago my son had his 6th birthday and he asked that we do an outdoor movie party. It was perfect, we just had the kids eat pizza outside, open presents and then sit on blankets and chairs for a movie outside. I used my photography backdrop paper and stand to show the…

  • SCREENED PORCH REVEAL

    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

    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

    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…

  • STAMPED PILLOW

    STAMPED PILLOW

    On my porch I added some grey burlap curtains and had some extra burlap. So I made a stamped burlap pillow. I love stamping fabric and wood. I used the same method I used here (the fifth step). I colored it in with a black sharpie because I thought it printed too light. I lined the inside of…
