Amazing Friends, I have a super sweet furniture makeover to share today! My Furniture Fixer Upper Friends and I get together the fourth Thursday every month to share furniture makeovers. They have their own transformations to share as well so be sure to look for them at the bottom! I shared a peek of my project piece on Tuesday: I picked this headboard up at a yard sale for $10 last Summer. How could I not bring this home for that price? If you've been around here a while, you know … [Read more...]
The Mason Jar Blue Headboard Bench
October 26, 2017 by
Well sweet Friends, the floors are officially ready for the new hardwoods, but I decided to switch gears a bit and paint the big furniture pieces for these two rooms before installing the new floors. It seemed to make more sense, don't you think? So yesterday I painted my hutch and the base of the dining room table. Hoping to wax them today. They look so bright and fresh! Next up is the desk. :) Since I am knee deep in my own makeovers at the moment I started digging to see what I thought my … [Read more...]

Hey there sweet Friends! I'm back today with another piece from that estate sale where I found this bookcase and these vintage night tables. But first, can I share something fun that happened at my house this weekend? My Mom is turning 70 this week, so my Dad and my siblings and I decided to surprise her with a surprise party! My younger sister lives here with her hubby and three boys, but my younger brother lives in South Carolina and my older sister lives in Wisconsin, but they all came for … [Read more...]

Outdoor Glider Bench Makeover
April 28, 2016 by
Hi lovely friends! I told you the other day that I've been spending several days working outdoors and today I'm sharing a project that was very much overdue.

I've included affiliate links so you can find the products I used. Here's my new and improved outdoor glider bench now: Doesn't it look brand … [Read more...]

Stool Revived

Hey there, awesome friends! Welcome to day#6 of March Madness! Today I'm sharing a simple stool makeover. Please tell me I'm not the only one who chuckles at the word, "stool"? "Stool Makeover" is even funnier to me. Any who...I found this crusty and dusty stool (ha ha) in the same shed I dug my Farmhouse Hutch out of at an estate sale.

Grain Sack Bench

I'm sharing another well-deserved makeover today! It was part of this haul: That day included an estate sale, a few yard sales and one thrift store stop! The large picture on the left was a $5 yard sale find and became a huge chalkboard. The claw-foot console table (see the after here) was a $10 yard sale find and received a frenchy makeover. Both pieces sold in my booth a while back. This is the 80's country charmer that's getting a makeover today: Ah...80's décor. We'll … [Read more...]
