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
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…
Geometric Wooden Art
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…
Easy Painted Wooden Sign – Thankful
A few years ago, I used the old pencil eraser painting technique to make artwork for my daughers’ rooms with their names in script. They were delicate and pretty, and fun to do! I also liked the dimension the paint gets when it’s simply tapped on. It gives it a lacey feel. So I thought…
Simple Snapshot Frame
I know I’m not alone in having a ton of cute photos that just hang out in digital land, largely forgotten. So the idea of having easy, interchangable frames is very appealing to me, and obviously not a novel idea. Some years ago I strung some twine on an open frame and hung pics with…
Easy Seasonal Plate Decor
I always love finishing up a project that’s been hanging around for a while. And I just finished not one, but two of those puppies! It’s been well more than a year since I bought these pretty scalloped plates to hang in my kitchen, and I just got them up. The sad thing is, it…
DIY Cut Words With Free Templates
So while trying to find something to hang on that empty little porch wall, I kept seeing these cute cut words. I really wanted to give them a try. My first thought was “yum” for the kitchen, but then I had a better idea courtesy of my sister. She wanted to stage a flip house…
Easy Modern Address Plaque
Who’s up for an easy project today?! At the skinny house, we had this blank wall on the porch that needed a little something… perhaps a welcome sign or an address plaque. I had already picked up the address numbers, but honestly, with only 2 numbers in the address, I just felt like it wouldn’t…

The Boardwalk Bench
While riding our bikes down the boardwalk on a beautiful spring day, I couldn’t help but look at the boards themselves and think about all the character in them. The happy beach goers, the dropped ice cream cones, battering storms, and long spans of peace against the crash of the ocean. I was thinking how…
