Inspired by my friend, Susan from Homeroad, I whipped up some quickie, patriotic, mini pillows last night. We were away for Memorial Day weekend, so I had a bunch of Dollar Store mini flags that were just sitting around. With Flag Day and the 4th of July right around the corner, I decided to make a couple of these adorable mini pillows. First, I ironed the flags to make them flat. Then I carefully removed...
Today I'm sharing a quick makeover I gave to this thrift store wooden "frame." I wish I had taken a before picture so you could see the full transformation. It was a really ugly turquoise hue. So first things first, I gave it a few coats of white spray paint. Once the paint was dry, I gave it a good sanding. Next I added some vintage sheet music to the back. It's hard to see,...
Now that spring is in full swing, I've been busy doing a little bit of this and a little bit of that. So many random projects going on at one time and I'm loving every minute of it! First up is this wood cheese board. This is the before. Yuck! I gave it a few coats of white spray paint. I found a great French image on The Graphics Fairy and added it using waterslide...
I picked up these Pier 1 wood charger plates from our local thrift store months ago. I finally got around to spray painting them white two weekends ago. And then they sat for a few days...until today. After sanding them down a little for a more aged look, I broke out some Waterslide Decal Paper and searched up some of my favorite French bee graphics. If you've never used Waterslide Decal Paper, you basically print...
It's almost here! The weather forecast is for spring-like weather this weekend and I'm ecstatic. Perfect timing too for this sweet spring sign I whipped up earlier this week. I used a frame that I found at our local thrift store and...paper! Yup, paper. I did not stencil those letters or use my Cricut. After I painted the frame white, I simply found a font I liked, spelled out my phrase and printed it out...
I know I've been a little MIA lately. I wish I had some fabulous reason - like I jetted off to Paris or that we won the lotto. Sadly, the reason is a lot less interesting. It's the weather. I'm not a winter girl and this year's weather has certainly put me in a funk. I've had zero inspiration and zero energy. I've long suspected that I have SAD (seasonal affective disorder). I'm trying to...
