Hello sweet friends!! Welcome back! As always, I am so grateful when you stop by! Today I'm sharing this chair that I picked up at a yard sale last Summer for $10: I often find desks or dressing tables that need a chair to go with them, so I picked this one up just in case I needed one, but I haven't done anything with it in a year, so it was time to go! I've included a few affiliate links so you can find the products I love. I decided to go darker on this one... Better, … [Read more...]

Hello beautiful friends!! Today is the day!! The day I cross off the final piece of this Summer's huge hall that came out of my storage room, AKA The Haul of Shame!! I almost forgot about this little cutie until I was looking at the photo to see what was left.

Hello beautiful friends! This is my last reshare. I've actually been working on the rest of my Haul of Shame this week, so I'll be back next week sharing what I did with those items! Today I'm sharing this armoire, or more specifically...chifforobe, that I picked up at the thrift store for $75 a couple of years ago: It was showing some age for sure, but I thought it was a steal at $75!

$5 Thrift Store Headboard Repurposed
August 6, 2019 by 14 Comments
Hello dear friends! You know I love ya'll...I truly do, but I am sneaking in one more week off before I get back to business. Not to worry though, I have another oldie but goodie from 2016 to share today. I chose this one because it seems like all I do with the headboards I find is make benches out of them, but that wasn't the case with this one. This headboard came from one of my all-time favorite thrift stores for a mere $4.95: There was no way I wasn't jumping on that deal! There … [Read more...]

Hi beautiful friends, and welcome to the first day of August! Where did July go?? I'm really enjoying my little break this week.

Today I'm pulling out an oldie from 2015! But first, I am pleased to announce that I finally have a winner for my latest CRAFT JUNK giveaway!

Hello, beautiful friends, and welcome! I just got back late last night from my beautiful niece's wedding in Wisconsin. My parents, my younger sister and one of her sons went as well.

That's my older sister on the right and her Hubby behind her, and of course, they are the proud parents of that stunning bride! Isn't she gorgeous? (I'm biased I know.) The younger … [Read more...]

Thrift Store Stool Makeover and How to Whitewash Furniture
July 11, 2019 by 32 Comments
Hello sweet friends! Today I'm continuing through my Haul of Shame with this little stool I picked up for a few dollars at the thrift store: I had several people purchase the supplies for the whitewashing technique that I used on my drop leaf table a couple of weeks ago, and so I really wanted to create a video to demonstrate how easy is it to achieve this look. This piece was the perfect piece for that! I love this look and this finish can hide all the imperfections! It … [Read more...]
