Drop-Leaf Work or Craft Cart

January 17, 2018 · 1 Comment

Build your own drop-leaf work or craft cart | inbetweenchaos.com

We have a bit of a problem around here. I do a lot of craft/blog/flip-house projects on my dining room table. It’s just easier for me to work on them in the house as opposed to the garage. The problem is the door going to the garage. It’s not my friend. It squeaks and apparently…

Lighted Christmas Sign | inbetweenchaos.com

Hey everyone bouncing over here from Hello Happy Place! If you haven’t yet, be sure to check out Terra’s gingerbread and copper themed tablescape. I love her simple gingerbread house! (Just the fact that it’s standing up blows mine out of the water!) And her ingenious copper napkin rings are adorable and very easy to…

Scrap Wood Angel

Scrap Wood Christmas Decor | inbetweenchaos.com

I’ve been enjoying making some practically free-for-me Christmas decor this year. Yesterday I shared with you my scrap wood Christmas trees. Today, I’m showing you how I made an angel out of leftover pieces in my stash. I began with a 1×8 at about 20 inches long. I then sketched out a super long skinny…

Bar Pull Picture Frame

Bar Pull Picture Frame | inbetweenchaos.com

I have to admit, I’ve had a little bit of a crush on my brass bar pulls in my bathroom. And I love them with the navy paint on the vanity.    +    =  So I really wanted to find another way to use this combo, so combined with my mission lately of hanging more…

Vintage Signs (Revisited)

November 10, 2017 · Leave a Comment

One of the first posts I ever did was on my vintage signs I made for both my kitchen and living room (check it out here!) using t-shirt transfers (grab them here). Although I made them a couple of years ago, I just went through the process again to help my brother make a birthday…

Jewelry Organizer

DIY Jewelry Organizer | inbetweenchaos.com

My favorite project? One that’s easy, solves a problem, and fun. This is one of those! I long ago started hanging my necklaces from an IKEA rail and hook, but I never got around to creating a place for my earrings. They lay in my jewelry box and are forgotten about, bless their hearts. So…

Throwback Thursday: Barn Door Headboard

Barn Door Headboard | inbetweenchaos.com

I’ve been itching for a change in our master bedroom for some time now.  And not a style change.  It’s our bedding.  We’ve had a bedspread for a few years, and i’m just really missing the comfort of a comforter.  I switched to a bedspread for a couple of reasons. Number 1 it reminded me…

Wooden Chevron Picture Frame | inbetweenchaos.com

If you hang with me here, you may start to see a trend with what I’ve been into lately. Lots of cut, geometric, puzzle piece wood projects. Oh and picture frames. I’ve been trying to hang up more pictures around the house. So this project is the best of both worlds 🙂 With the exception…

Geometric Wooden Art

Geometric Wood Art | inbetweenchaos.com

Although I have to limit myself, I LOVE putting puzzles together. The problem is, if I get one started, I have a lot of trouble walking away until it’s completed. I will walk by it, then sit down to work on one little part, and the next thing I know it’s hours later. My neck…
