I survived Thanksgiving! Hope you did too! Our Xmas decorations are in full swing now given that according to my 6 year old, there are 26 more days til Xmas. This was a Pinspiration. I found something similar on Pinterest but now I can't for the life of me find the pin to show you. I believe the pinner used metal letters to create their banner. Mine are wood (from A.C. Moore) but I painted...

Creepy Halloween Book Stack
Remember those books I picked up last week at our local thrift store? After a couple of coats of black paint and some creepy stickers, here they are now: I found the images on both Pinterest and The Graphics Fairy. I printed the images out onto label paper and simply peeled and stuck to each book once the paint was dry! I have them displayed in our corner cabinet with some other Halloween goodies. Jeanine...
Yes, I know I'm incredibly early for fall, but I just couldn't resist making some shabby fabric pumpkins this morning. I've been seeing them all over Pinterest and they are just so darn cute that I couldn't resist. I used some fabric pieces that I had stashed in my craft room for over a year (one of the benefits of never throwing stuff out!). I used some tea-stained seam binding a French fabric tag for...
Or is it a milk tin?! Whatever you call it, I picked this up at Home Goods a few years ago. We used to have it on our porch but it didn't quite fit with my beachy decor, so off to the shed it went. I dug it out yesterday to give it a Frenchie makeover. This seriously took four coats of white spray paint to cover. Holy moly, I was in a cloud of...
I'm so enamored with religious pictures and pieces these days. It's definitely reflected in some of these random projects I've been working on. This one was inspired by Rhonda from Little Bit French. She made the prettiest French journals last week that I just couldn't stop myself from pinning all over Pinterest. I actually found the religious image on Pinterest after my sister (Kathy from Creative Home Expressions) had pinned it. It's just so lovely. I've used...
I'm a huge fan of decorating with bottles. Old, new, big, small - you name it, I love em! These two are old sparkling lemonade bottles that I got from Home Goods a few years ago. The lemonade was yummy and the bottles have been embellished. I printed out both images onto label paper. Both were found on Pinterest. I love this religious one. It brings me back to my goth days. I distressed the...
