Today is the Furniture Themed Thursday Tour!!! This month our theme is "Inspired By". We were to pick a piece of furniture from a store, or done by someone else, and do our own take on it. My Inspiration piece was this gorgeous dresser that I saw on Dear Lillie. ... VIEW POST
Plaster Painted French Provincial Nightstand Makeover
Plaster Painted Vintage Dresser Makeover
I noticed the other day that I shared one of my furniture pieces as a contributor at another site in October, but because of the craziness in my life, I never shared it with my readers. You see, Fall is a bit of a whirlwind around here as I start decorating for Halloween, flow into Thanksgiving, and settle into Christmas (with get-togethers, parties, and functions peppered all throughout). Toward the end of the summer, I came across a giant beast of a brown dresser at a yard sale for next to ... VIEW POST
How We Save $749 a Year By Cutting Out Cable and Still Get to Watch the Shows We Love
Stepping out into the new year, Topher and I decided we needed to go on a diet -- a debt diet that is. Like so many other people, we finished up the year with some credit card debt. You know what I'm talking about -- that emergency card that you had to use when something big popped-up, like a large car repair or a pet surgery. Then you maybe added an emergency pair or shoes that you had to have to go with your dress for that certain party, and when you absolutely needed a weekend away to ... VIEW POST
Super Easy Ruffle Trim Valentine’s Day Trees
Happy Monday everyone!!! Sadly strep throat and I still haven't broken up. It's one of those relationships where I want to move on, but he just won't let me go. My throat itself is better, but that has been replaced with congestion, horrible body aches, and a fun cough -- just to to top things off. Along with this nastiness lingering, so has my christmas decor. This weekend, come hell or high water, it had to go. It definitely isn't as fun taking it down as it is putting it up. So after ...

IKEA Rast Hack
Happy Friday everyone!!! Sorry I've been MIA this week, strep and this almost 40-year-old body were at war the entire time. I'm still not well, but I'm better than I was a week ago. I've got a fun makeover for you today! A while back I was contacted by Hickory Hardware and asked to take part in an IKEA Rast Challenge. They would send me the IKEA dresser, and I would make it over. I thought it sounded fun so I told them to send it my way! Now I have never been to IKEA before (I know ... VIEW POST
Wheezing In The New Year
If you've come here today looking for a fun new project and an upbeat attitude to start off the new year, you are in the wrong place my friends. I have the plague. We are talking the I've-been-wearing-the-same-pajamas-for–three-days, hair-in-a-matted-bun, haven't-brushed-my-teeth-cuz-the-bathroom-feels-light-years-away, I'm-covered-in-used-tissues kind of plague. Do you remember one of the worst viruses you have ever had? I know you do. The my-head-feels-like-it's-going-to-blow-up, ... VIEW POST
Restoration Redoux’s Top 15 Posts of All Time
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a fun one! Topher had to work late, the unnamed child had plans, and I was sick ... so I just hung out watching movies all by my lonesome. Pretty exciting stuff. I watched The Other Woman and Maleficent -- both were pretty good. I was hoping to finish up on some new projects yesterday, but I pretty much just stayed in a NyQuil induced coma instead. Pretty sure those are going to be my plans for today too. The other day I posted my Top 10 ... VIEW POST
