It's Thursday here ... well actually it's Wednesday night, but since I will be up going to yard sales at 6 am on Thursday, I am writing this the night before. If you saw my post from yesterday (actually today -- but yesterday to you), you saw my post on Vintage Chic Wedding Shower ideas. One of my favorites were the flower filled 3-D letters. I picked-up these cardboard letters at Jo-Anns. I think they were around $4 a piece, but I used my 40% off coupons so they weren't too ... VIEW POST

Vintage Chic Wedding Shower
This post is part of a campaign with Shutterfly and LooksiSquare. All opinions are entirely my own. It's almost June, and you know what that means? Wedding season! I've hosted several wedding showers in the past, and all of the party supplies at the chain stores just don't seem to cut it. When I host a shower, I like it to be more personalized to the couple, and Shutterfly is just the answer! When I decorate, I love mixing new pieces with unique, vintage items, and that is ...

Retro Dresser Turned TV Console
Today is the last day of school!!! No more getting up early, scrambling to get clothes washed the night before and nagging about homework and grades. The kiddo is not one of those kids who gets bored after a week of summer and is ready for school again. She soaks in every last minute of it. She's ready to have friends over, hang out at the pool and watch movies with me until late at night. And I am excited to have someone help me around here with my furniture projects. The kid is turning ... VIEW POST

Plaster Paint Stenciled Cabinet
Happy Tuesday everyone! I hope you all had a happy Mother's Day! I worked all day on Sunday so that I could have this project finished to show you yesterday, but it just didn't quite happen. I picked-up this cabinet at a yard sale for the bargain price of free. It was dated, scratched up, smelly and the doors wouldn't open. ... VIEW POST
How to Make Waxing Furniture Easier with a Giveaway
I've got a new furniture makeover for you!!! And a giveaway!!!! I've been working on this beast of a dresser for a while now, so I'm so happy that the unveiling is now here!! I found this dresser, and a mate, off Craigslist last winter. On the ad, there weren't any dimensions, but Topher had a giant SUV, so we knew they should both easily fit. The guy from the ad also said he would be there to help lift them if needed. When we arrived at his house (which was gorgeous by the ... VIEW POST
Chalkboard Makeover Times Two
Happy Monday! I hope you all had a good weekend! Saturday I spent the entire day painting. Then I spent two and a half hours cleaning the unnamed child's closet. I can't even tell you what a monstrosity that was. I swear there were things growing in there. After two hours I finally gave up. I was still only halfway finished, and I decided to let her finish it on Sunday. So after a whole day of painting and being traumatized from wading through layer after layer of expensive clothing, I ... VIEW POST
