  • SCALLOPED BOOK PAGE WREATH

    SCALLOPED BOOK PAGE WREATH

    I shared my St. Patrick’s Day decor on Monday, and today wanted to share a tutorial for how I made the little book page wreath. I am sure you have seen these wreaths before. I have and think they are so cute. It was pretty quick too-but mine is small, so I image it would…

  • BENCH UP CYCLE

    BENCH UP CYCLE

    While my mother-in-law was cleaning out her mother’s basement, she found this bench and thought of me so she asked if I wanted it.

    UP-CYCLED WIRE BASKETS

    I found these wire baskets at Gordman’s for $10. I thought they were so cute so bought two, they were yellow and green and I kind of liked the yellow and green but decided I would like them even better if they looked like an old wire basket. The process of changing them from a…

    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…

  • HIGH WAISTED MAXI SKIRT

    HIGH WAISTED MAXI SKIRT

    I love wearing maxi skirts. You may remember my maxi skirt tutorial. Well, I wanted to make a maxi skirt that was just a bit more fitted instead of the rolled top. After making my leggings tutorial, I realized how easy it is to add a waistband so I decided to combine my maxi skirt…

  • 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…
