Shabby Chic Vanity Makeover
I wanted to re-do my daughters room Shabby Chic and found the perfect vanity on Facebook Marketplace. It was listed as $100, we contacted the seller, then went on an hour road trip to Asheville, NC to pick it up. The vanity had a few stains and cracks. Nothing a little paint, wood putty, and…
Valentine Kitchen/Breakfast Nook Decor
I love how my Valentine’s Decorations gave primarily white kitchen pops of color and vibrancy. It’s one of the many reasons I enjoy having neutral backgrounds, because you have versatility to change decor so easily throughout the seasons. These bottle brush trees make me so happy and I use them every chance I get. I…

Indoor Camping Party Ideas for Boys
If you saw my previous post, Glamping Slumber Party for girls, my twins wanted a slumber party for their birthday. The best thing for a sleepover to accommodate both boys and girls was to do tents, and let each pick their own theme. You can read all about the girl theme, in my previous post….
Glamping Slumber Party For Girls
I wanted to share a favorite party idea we did for my twins. I have boy/girl twins, so we had a tent party for both on the same night. For simplicity sake, I’m going to share them on separate posts. I will start with the girls tents, because let’s face it, girl’s stuff is just…
Before and After Switch Plate Makeover
I wanted to “bedazzle” my daughters light plate cover in her room, after finding this metal vintage inspired switch plate, at a thrift store for around $5.00. I decided to “Shabby Chic” it to match a vintage mirror in her room. l This boring snoozer of a switch plate cover was not fitting for a…
Tree and Ornament Organization
Most of us look forward to putting up our Christmas Tree(s), but we do not have as much enthusiasm about taking it down. If you’re like me, it’s bittersweet. I have a mixture of sadness Christmas is over, but I’m also ready to declutter. As much as I love to decorate for Christmas, I always…
Quick Last Minute Gift Idea
I made these one year as teachers gifts, but these could easily be made into a last minute gift for someone you forgot to put on your nice list! It is also a great white elephant gift for that family get together or work party. I bought small apple pales, socks, and a tote bag…
Christmas Mantle
I love trying new ideas on my mantle every year for Christmas. This year I was inspired by my friend Emily Massengill’s garland mirror with hanging bells. With her permission, I am sharing her design, and how I made it my own. I tried to wrap my evergreen garland around the mirror, but it didn’t…
Dough Bowl Christmas Centerpiece
If you are needing some table inspiration this Christmas, I wanted to feature this beautiful dough bowl centerpiece a friend posted with berries, eucalyptus, evergreen, candles, and wooden baubles. It’s simple yet elegant, and an easy way to spruce up a table or buffet to impress your guest this Christmas. You could also use ornaments…
Porch Nook Makeover
I’ve been wanting to makeover this nook of my porch which had been neglected for sometime. I didn’t know what I wanted to replace the wicker set with so I kept putting it off. I had a vision of the look I had in mind, but couldn’t find it in local stores. On a recent…
A Calm Place in the Storm

Christmas Hanging Bells
I went on a mission the other day looking for bells after not buying some I’d seen (believe it or not at Walmart), and later regretted not purchasing them. I didn’t know how I would use the bells, so I thought I would wait until I knew where I would display, before buying. After seeing…
Don’t get your tinsel in a tangle!
I saw this sign a few years ago and had to snap this picture. I share it every year. It’s a great reminder this time of year. What do you do to help stay calm during the holidays to help you keep from getting your “tinsel in a tangle”!

Our dream of a chicken coop part 1
My oldest son, John Luke has been dreaming of farming since he could push tractors around as a toddler. He is now 9 and has been begging to get chickens for a while, but I’ll be honest it all seemed so overwhelming, I kept putting the idea off and telling him “one day”. The thought…
