Happy Friday folks. How can it be Friday already? I don’t know where this week has gone. But being busy sure does make time fly! I’m in my first month of all my children being in school, and time has only sped up more. How can that be? I promised you last week I would…
Magnolia Market Inspired Wood & Metal Tote
I’ve been itching to get some skills in metalworking, because I have none. And really no tools either. So when I find something I can do without skill or special tools, I get a little excited. I liked this tote from Magnolia Market, but I didn’t so much like the $60 price tag! And then…
Flippin’ Friday: Floors!
Happy Friday guys! When I visited the flip house this week, I couldn’t help but “ooh” and “ahhh” over the floors. I had to be patient while they were being refinished, but it was worth the wait! It’s kind of shocking to me that these beautiful floors were underneath carpet. But they are free to…
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…
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!

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…
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…
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…
