My Life as a DIY Wannabe
I was pretty stoked to get to play around with the Tulip Tie Dye Kit to create something new. I think the last time I tie dyed was back in Girl Scouts… yeah, I’m serious! But this time I wasn’t going to create a t-shirt like back in the 6th grade. This time I decided [...]
Hey everyone. I’m going to be unexpectedly out this week for the funerals of my grandmother and uncle. I’ve asked some of my bloggy friends to fill in for me with some fabulous projects while I’m out. Please give them some LOVE and I’ll be back next Monday! Why hello there lovely How to Nest [...]
My boss has said to me many times before “Baseball is the background music of summer”. I love that! I’m a huge Cardinals fan and St. Louis is definitely a baseball town. So to show my Redbirds some love, I’ve created a St. Louis Cardinals Baseball Wreath for summer! I actually got part of this [...]
Today I’m guest posting over at Amanda’s blog, Serenity Now. Please stop by and say hello! OK, now onto the normal post. I’m a girl who likes change. Anyone close to me will tell you that I change the décor in my home every six months… or at least so it seems. That’s why I [...]
Only a couple of more days until Easter! I really didn’t do many projects this year specifically for this holiday (I think I’m still a little burnt out from Christmas crafts!). But while sitting home yesterday with a sick child and cleaning my craft room I noticed some materials that would be perfect for an [...]
Two weeks ago I posted about using fabric to cover an old lamp shade to go with my new great room (aint’ she purdy? love the red swirls!). I had another old lamp shade sitting in the basement and really needed to add some extra light by my two red reading chairs. So here we [...]
Last week I posted about my Home Goals for 2012. The first thing I really want to tackle on my list? Start introducing more of my eclectic style in my traditional great room, which means a POP of color and some funky pieces. I recently added new lamps to my master bedroom and wanted to [...]
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 [...]
A couple of month’s back I painted and reupholstered an accent chair for my Great Room (seen here). While I liked the fabric choice and color, I didn’t think that the chair provided enough POP for the room! Over the weekend I was at Hancock Fabrics while they were celebrating their 54th Anniversary with a [...]
I found this adorable fabric scrap wreath from One More Moore’s blog post she created back in November 2010. I thought this craft would be the perfect idea to add a little bling to my daughter’s bedroom door. So off I went to get my supplies! I purchased a metal wreath frame for $3, a [...]
