I think paint must be fogging my brain, because these days I just can’t stop seeing improvements I could be making around the house! It must be a sickness. Anyway, the latest improvements can be seen in little love’s room. All the furniture in the room was either given to us or bought at a […]

Yesterday morning when I looked out my kitchen window and saw that it was going to be this sort of daygray, dreary, wet, snowy…I decided it would be a good day to stay inside and make some soup. So that’s what I did. I’ve never actually bought a whole chicken (am I alone in this?? […]

Avery loves to run around the house in my big-people shoes and it always makes me laugh! What is it about girls and shoes?? They just seem to be attracted to one another. Maybe she gets it from her mom? + + + + This old picture is of hub’s mom and her brother. I […]

This morning I had brunch with some of my blogging buddies…Beth, Kara, & Janelle (who I had never before met in real life). (left to right: Beth, Kara, Janelle (and baby Luke), and me) We met at Janelle’s home and she treated us to a delicious and fun morning! She has an adorable old house […]

Here’s a fun little project I did a little while ago. I bought some pre-cut 2″ wooden cubes from Michael’s (a craft store), painted them white, and decoupaged photos onto the blocks. For two of the blocks, I printed out words and decoupaged them as well. It’s a unique way of displaying fun little photos!

This is a memo board I made for my office. I love it and the best part is – it was FREE!!! I used this gold frame that I had in my attic for years. It’s pretty but not my style. So I painted it white. My mom was going to throw out some cork […]

I’ve been wanting to create a sign to hang in the nursery above Avery’s crib for a while, and last week I finally found the perfect sized piece of wood down in our dungeon (the basement). After begging Hubs to let me have it (he wanted to use it for something practical – what’s THAT […]

Hey, a girl can dream, can’t she??

If I could have any house I would want, I think these would be it! I’ve always dreamed of living in a little cottage with loads of charm, window seats to read on, old wooden floors, a fire in the old stone fireplace, a garden with tons of bright flowers spilling everywhere….this is my kind […]

So here are some more pics of our bedroom. Above is the door to our pitifully SMALL closet! (don’t you just feel sorry for me??) And I only get to use HALF of it! (whine, whine…) This is the material I used to make a cushion for the chest. I bought it at Joanne Fabrics.Vases […]

I’m finally posting pictures of our master bedroom that I’ve been working on for a few months…The reason it’s been taking so long is because I’ve been doing it the “thrifty” way! (you all know what I’m talking about!) Our bedroom furniture is very traditional and dark, and I couldn’t replace it or paint it […]
