Beautiful friends, can you believe I'm almost done with this huge haul?? I can't tell ya'll how good it feels to work through these pieces I've been hanging onto for forever! Let's get to today's makeover, shall we? I'm always drawn to things that serve a purpose when I visit thrift stores. One such item I see all the time are shelves. I always hate to leave them behind, but they don't exactly make for the most interesting blog content. I caved and bought this one because even though it … [Read more...]

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! I've included a few affiliate links so you can find the products I use. I decided to reshare this … [Read more...]

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. I also took my oldest, Jack, with me: They had a photo booth set up and needless to say, we had a blast with it! 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...]

Who's ready for a thrifty makeover today?? Always, right? Me too! Sweet friends, today I'm sharing another Haul of Shame project.

Thrifty Basket Makeovers

Beautiful friends welcome back! Today I am back working through my Haul of Shame! These two baskets have been hanging around as long as I can remember: Let's start with the one that gave me the most trouble: It was marked 75¢, but it was late in the day at the yard sale where I found it, so the lady selling it said to just give her 50¢. I couldn't not bring it home for two quarters, right? I've included a few affiliate links so you can find the products I love. I started both … [Read more...]
