My Life as a DIY Wannabe
So since it’s the last weekend of 2011 and I normally feature my favorite projects of the week on Fridays, I decided to do something a little different to celebrate a fantastic and inspiring year! Here are my Top 5 favorite projects of 2011 from around the Blogosphere! 1. Board & Batten from Centsational Girl - [...]
WOW, what a year! I went “live” with this little blog back on May 23rd as a way to record my DIY projects while my hubby was off working nights and weekends. I could have never dreamed that 7 months later I would have over 700 Facebook followers and a daily average of about 5,000 [...]
I first found this adorable craft from Traci over at Beneath My Heart… LOVE her site and amazing projects! While I thought these Santa napkin coasters were absolutely adorable and cheap to create, I just couldn’t find time to create them before the holidays. So I decided to make an everyday version once the chaos [...]
I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! I’m taking it easy this week enjoying some family time but thought I’d pop in to say hello! While I’ll share my some more from the holiday weekend tomorrow, here’s a little gift I just had to share. My hubby knows that I’m obsessed with a little [...]
Here again are a couple of my favorite projects I found while flipping through the DIY blog websites. These people have totally inspired me and want me to get out my paint brush (or sewing machine, oven mitt, and anything else crafty)! This is an old project, but a goodie! Stephanie from Under the Table [...]
My mother-in-law had surgery this past week which means all of the girls in my hubby’s family need to pitch in a little bit more than usual for Christmas dinner. As mentioned before, I’m not the best cook in the world, but I’m not too shabby with an easy recipe or fun new idea. So [...]
Yeah, I know this ain’t brain surgery… or anything you haven’t seen before. But it’s 5 days before Christmas and my mojo is out the window. So yesterday I posted my newly organized craft room/home office. Now it’s time to add another finishing touch to add some color to the room. I spotted these paper [...]
I’m still trying to get my home office/craft room in order since I stenciled the walls about a month ago. It’s been a LONG journey, but this weekend I finally started making some progress. So what jump started my organizational overhaul? I told my hubby that I wanted… no NEEDED some shelving in the home [...]
Here again are a couple of my favorite projects I found while flipping through the DIY blog websites. These people have totally inspired me and want me to get out my paint brush (or sewing machine, oven mitt, and anything else crafty)! First up is this UH-mazing dresser makeover from The Empty Nest. Janet: this [...]
So my neighbor recently finished her lower level to make room for a spare bedroom (yeah, another bonus of living in the Midwest is basements are pretty much standard in every home). Since she spent a pretty penny getting carpet, bedding, etc. she wanted to reuse a pair of old tables she got from Goodwill [...]
