Pinterest Addict – Tulip Fabric Spray Paint Chair
Fabric Spray Paint Chair I bought this chair at my favorite thrift store, Faith Farm, many months ago for $5. It’s one of my favorite chairs. Super cute and and comfortable. Love all the tufting on the seat back, which is why I didn’t feel like I could re-upholster it myself. The green fabric is in good shape, but completely… Read More
Painted upholstery
I wanted to just write up a quick “how-I-did-it” for the painted chairs I posted about here. I first heard of painting furniture from this Pinterest pin… Kristy Swain at Hyphen Interiors painted a thrifted chair for her bedroom. It looked fabulous.

It’s not really a makeover
I was so excited this weekend to find this little gem at Faith Farm… Yep, it’s really a Stiffel! Some Stiffel lamps go for hundreds of dollars on eBay.

But my favorite project this week is this desk. I bought this at Faith Farm a few weeks ago, and it has been patiently waiting its… Read More
Holiday Hookers
This year, I’ve been having a hard time getting into the Christmas Spirit. In fact, I’ve kind of felt like him… I could bore you with the details of why, but I won’t because I realize what a dope I am for sweating the small stuff. But, the other day I was on Facebook and saw a post from one… Read More
Thrifty Thursday
So, I did it! I painted the living room chairs! Here’s a picture of them before. Pay no mind to the mess behind it! And here they are now! Love the way the look, but they feel scratchy! Ugh! I had sanded them down and they felt much better, but then they also looked like they were dusty/old. My husband… Read More

My son is having a few friends over tonight for a bonfire, so I decided to make brownies for them. I saw the cutest idea on Pinterest, and thought I would try it out. Aren’t these just the cutest?! I thought, how easy would this be? So, I mixed up the brownie batter, sprayed the pan and the cookie cutters… Read More
