Hello my sweets! Yesterday was a busy day around the James house gearing up for one of our favorite nights of the year. We had such a great time, and at the end of the day, all the hard work we put into Halloween was so worth it! Here's my little man in his Minecraft costume: He had to pick a super bulky costume, but at least he made it up and down the whole street this time. He usually only makes it a few houses!

You will see I love to decorate with as little mula as possible, and that means lots of thrifting, repurposing, and upcycling around here! I last shared my living room … [Read more...]
Thrift Store Inbox Makeover
January 18, 2018 by
Hello awesome Friends! On Tuesday I shared a peek at today's project. Apparently there are a lot of these floating around out there because several of you mentioned you had one too! I'm talking about this wooden inbox I scored at the thrift store for $2.25 several months ago: Anything that is made of wood catches my eye when I'm thrifting since I know paint can work wonders, and as soon as I saw this on the shelf, I knew just what it could be. Painting it and adding handles turned … [Read more...]
