Just a quick project. A small bucket of starfish for my beachy-themed porch. I used some decal paper to add my starfish images (from Etsy) to my bucket which I believe I got at Target a few summers ago. There are some sand dollars tucked in there as well. Dreaming of beachy weather. It's almost here! Total cost: $0 as I had everything I needed. I'm still have $90 left for my beach makeover budget. Jeanine ...
Remember I said I had another little Ikea pitcher that I was planning to jazz up? Here it is in all of its Spring glory - flowers and all! I used this great image from the Graphics Fairy and some more of my waterslide decal paper (buy it from eBay!). My daffodils were starting to tip over so I snipped the ones that were leaning on the ground and added them. Love the yellow with...
Haven't had too much time for crafting/blogging over the last few days. My hubby's been in the hospital since Friday night. Sigh! I was able to makeover this little porch table Friday afternoon and take pics of it this morning. Here's the before: Yuck! Not even sure how to describe the previous color other than to say "U-G-L-Y, you don't need no alibi, you ugly!" And here it is after a few coats of ASCP...
I must have over 20 recipe books in my house. Sad part is, I hardly ever use them. Each book seems to be filled with recipes we ripped out of magazines, printed off the computer, etc. And now with Pinterest, I have a hundred or more recipes bookmarked on my computer. I needed an easier way to keep our favorite recipes handy without having to dig through piles of pages. I used some off-white cardstock to...
I've had this pitcher from Ikea for a few years now. Last year, I added a coffee label to it using Mod Podge. Unfortunately, it started to peel off. Can't have that, now can we? So yesterday, I gave it a new Frenchy makeover using waterslide decal paper. I have to say this is one of my favorite Frenchy images. It's making the rounds on Pinterest so be sure to download it when you can!...
We spend a lot of time on our porch in the summer. This year, I wanted to give it more of a beachy theme...for not a lot of money. I'm giving myself a $100 budget to work with. Here's what we have so far. This boat oar is from Home Goods. I bought two of them a couple of years ago. They've been hanging by our garage/patio area. Total cost: $0 as I already had...
