    Approximately 6 months ago, my husband came home with a surprise for me. Namely, these pallets: I was so thrilled that I actually told you all about it here. And I also told you about some free paint from Lowe’s & random 50 cent boards I bought at Ikea. I had no idea what I…

    Gallery Wall Take #2

    Many moons ago, I had a large blank wall in my dining room. One day, I decided to change that. And so I began hanging pictures. I started with 1 big picture. And then I kept hanging more pictures around it. I didn’t have a major plan or sketch. I thought about doing that, but…

    This Old Box

      See that mirror? It’s right above my kitchen sink. That means while I’m doing dishes, I get to look up and – “oh, hello there!” – see myself. Not real cool. See this box? I salvaged it on its’ way to the dumpster. How nice of me to adopt him into a loving home…

    Happily Ever After DIY Canvas

    It all started with this: See that large blank wall space above my bed? I wanted something to fill it. I have this cool candle-holder-wire-thing that I thought might be pretty, but since it’s my bedroom, I wanted it to be something more personal and romantic…not a boring old “something I could just buy in…
