If you haven’t seen the completed pics of the Cliffhanger, you’ll want to check it out here first! Sourcing for a flip house is always a challenge, but a fun one for me! I want quality selections that look nice and work well but at a good price. I mean yes, we are flipping a...

Breath of Spring from Home

Marianne — Sat, 21 Mar 2020 15:08:27 +0000

Last Tuesday, I headed to Target in need of some essentials for home. Nope, I didn’t get toilet paper, though that may have been the smart thing to do. But I decided to give myself a bit of time to peruse some new items out for spring. I got an Easter dress and sandals for...

Patterned Tile Wall Mirror

Oh hey guys, remember me? I promise I did not forget you, I just took a bit of an unplanned hiatus 🙂 After getting the Split on the market, I switched into focusing on my own house and had lots of gardening plans… and now suddenly it is summer break! Yikes! The great news is,...

Wooden Wall Quilt

Marianne — Sun, 18 Feb 2018 16:07:31 +0000

You may remember a geometric wooden piece I shared with you a couple of months ago. I was in the middle of having a lot of fun with angles, and in the midst of that I also made this wall quilt. This piece is actually a little easier than the first, as there are only...

Yarn Christmas Trees & Wreath

I started this post last year, because that is when I made these trees. And yet I never got it posted. Call me a procrastinator, but hey, at least I’m getting it to you now! Last year, I used them with my buffalo check display board, but this year, I created a little white and...

Scrap Wood Angel

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...

Scrap Wood Christmas Trees

Here’s a super-cheap project that you can customize to your liking. And depending on how you finish them, you could leave them up all winter. You can make them in all sizes, tall and lean, short and fat… make a whole little winter forest! Grab a piece of scrap wood and cut to the height you...

Have Yourself a Retro Little Christmas

Marianne — Wed, 23 Nov 2016 22:46:10 +0000

One of the things I love about Christmas is pulling out my Christmas decorations and remembering years past. And of course I love finding things that remind of decor my parents had when growing up! The little Santa boot? My mom had something so very similar. I think it was from Avon 🙂 My grandmother...

Thanksgiving Series Wrap-Up

Marianne — Fri, 04 Nov 2016 17:01:38 +0000

Is anyone else feeling it? That excited feeling that starts creeping in this time of year in eager anticipation of the special season ahead? Putting together these Thanksgiving ideas has certainly warmed me up from the inside. I am one of those people who hates the phrase “I’m looking forward to…” because at the very...
