My day started with backing up my entire computer so I could take it to the Apple store for some work. Backing up took HOURS! I have a bazillion pics on it and backing them all up was a pain in the tush. When I explained the problem to the Apple Genius (it always makes […]
Makeover Monday – Mercury Glass
Thanks for joining me for my first ever Makeover Monday!!! This week, I tried my hand at creating the look of Mercury Glass using hurricane lamps and Krylon’s Looking Glass spray paint. Way long ago, this pin that got me thinking about trying out this craft. Are they not classy?? I loved the look, […]
Curb Appeal
When we moved in to our house in June, the yard was a blank slate. Well, not really a blank slate, more of an overgrown, unplanned, unloved jungle. Our house is on 5 acres, which is fenced off to make three separate paddocks, and about one and a half acres in the middle where our […]
Pinning away – Halloween
As I’ve mentioned before, I love Pinterest. For those of you that don’t know the wonder and joy of Pinterest, it’s a virtual cork board of sorts. For years, when I found something I found interesting online, I would bookmark it, and then promptly forget about it. Now, I can save all everything to my […]
Thrift shop beauty
There is nothing I like more than to save money. It makes me a little giddy when I find a sweet deal on something I need, as opposed to just something I want. Today, I went to Faith Farm to find a bedside table for my son’s room. No luck at all. But I did […]
Light Fixture Makeovers and Replacements
When we first looked at our new house, I loved the natural light that filled it. What I didn’t like were all the light fixtures. Every one of them were builder-grade, and the cheapest ones at that. There were “pimple” light globes in the bathrooms, hallways and even our bedroom. Every single one of the […]
Laundry Room Makeover – It almost makes me want to do laundry…
The laundry room re-do is done!! In case you don’t remember, because it was really not memorable at all, this is what it looked like last week. Boring. Bland. A little depressing. But now, after many days of work, and lots of energy spent, this is our new laundry room! We replaced the old washer […]
Easy Halloween decorations
While looking for Fall decoration ideas, I found this on Pinterest. While I don’t eat much candy corn, decorating with it is fabulous! (Visit Woman’s Day for more ideas on decorating with candy corn.) I loved them because they didn’t scream “HALLOWEEN!!” at you, so you could use them for all of Fall. Perfect for […]
My current project – the laundry room
Laundry Room Before and Inspiration I’ve been working on our laundry room! Finally. When we moved here, it was one of the first things I wanted to do, but it kept getting put off because of the nine hundred other things that took priority over it, like getting the water system working. This is the […]
Bathroom update
Kids Easy Bathroom Update As much as I hate to admit it, I am not the most creative designer on the planet, but I am pretty good at taking an idea and making changes to it so that it works for me. This easy bathroom update was done with just paint, new decor and a […]
