I thought it would be fun to take you back to my first flip, which I completed before I ventured into this world blogging. I toured this house the day it came on the market, and I wasn’t the only one. It was a hot commodity, especially since it was priced so low. We put…
Drop-Leaf Work or Craft Cart
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…
Ten Days of Christmas Inspiration Blogger Series: Day 2 – Lighted Oh Holy Night Sign
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
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…
Vintage Signs (Revisited)
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…
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…
Wooden Chevron Picture Frame
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…
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…
Updating a 90s kitchen – WITHOUT Painting Cabinets!
I think the first thing many homeowners think needs to happen with a dated kitchen remodel is a change of cabinets. First, let’s start with a bit of a perspective adjustment… oak or wood cabinets need not be removed or painted. They are trending back in, and that makes it so much easier to update…
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…
