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 Pinterest boards and it’s there… Read More
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 find some lanterns with potential,… Read More
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 bathrooms had these light bars… Read More
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 and dryer, and the new… Read More
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 me because I am not… Read More
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 laundry room “before”. Like all… Read More
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 cute new shower curtain! … Read More
New Life for an Old Chair
My First Upholstery Project – Cane Chair Update I love thrift stores, and as I read through many of my favorite blogs, I see that I am not alone. After seeing some of the treasures that other’s have found, I find myself wishing that I lived closer to this or that place/blogger so I too could find something just as… Read More
Our New house
I love to re-invent things. Whether it be an ugly chair, or a desk that has seen better days. Which is why, when we were looking for a new house, I didn’t shy away from the ones that weren’t “pretty”. My husband wanted a house with more than a quarter of an acre, and in this area of South Florida,… Read More
Just another day in the life of a Pinterest Addict
Before Pinterest, my internet life consisted of email, news websites, google, PostSecret, Facebook and finding photography websites. I knew that blogs existed, but never really found any that were interesting to me long-term. Not that I put much energy into finding them, because what experience I did have with them was limited to friend’s blogs, and with the exception of… Read More
