Happy Trash-to-Treasure Tuesday, beautiful friends! Today I and four of my favorite upcycling friends are all sharing makeovers of what some might call trash! Be sure to look for my friends' projects at the bottom. Of course, I have to choose something from my current haul and the most fitting item in the lot is this cabinet door that came out of our old kitchen: It really was trash that I would not let my Hubby throw away. (Ya'll know how he likes to throw everything away!) I'm … [Read more...]

Cottage-Inspired Drop Leaf Side-Table
October 1, 2019 by 52 Comments
Happy Tuesday, amazing friends! Can you even believe it's October already?? I'm continuing to work through my Fall haul and today this drop leaf side table is getting a cottage-inspired makeover: I found this table for $25 at the thrift store a couple of months ago. I thought this cutie pie was well worth that and scooped it right up. The top, however, had quite a few dings and knicks, so I went a little more distressed on this one to make that work. I've included a few affiliate links so … [Read more...]

Happy Thursday, beautiful friends! Today I'm sharing the final piece of my last haul, and I have a super simple Fall DIY project to share as well: sweater pumpkins made from the sleeves of sweaters!

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...]
