80% OFF Hobby Lobby Haul


It's sort of a miracle that I was able to find such great finds at this awesome Hobby Lobby sale!  Everything I found was just right for my home's rustic farmhouse / industrial style.  We are also redecorating our master bedroom so it was great timing as well!  I went to two different Hobby Lobby's and both had a good selection as well as different things at both.

I share with you all of my clearance finds in the video linked below!
I hope you are inspired!

DIY Kitchen Wood Sign


So simple, yet so chic!  This dark wood and white combo is one of my favorites.  It's a rich look and the perfect fit for my farmhouse kitchen.  I have always wanted an "EAT" sign, or I at least wanted the words EAT to stand out somewhere in my kitchen.  I had a little spot open above my kitchen cabinets so I ended up making a wood sign to custom fit in the space.  It works just right!

Do you have room for a wood sign like this in my kitchen?  I give you a complete video tutorial and steps to how you can create this wood sign for yourself in the link down below.
I hope you are inspired!

DIY Dog Bowl Stand



Our new puppy is just a little spoiled... ok a lot spoiled.  He is our first family dog, so that may just have a little bit to do it.  He is a medium sized dog, about 50 pounds (right now) and nearly a year old.  Our vet says he shouldn't get much taller, but will likely put on more pounds.  Since the height is what I was worried about with this project, I went ahead and made this bowl stand for him.

The dark stain and the white combo is what I'm obsessed with right now.  It just is classy, has a lot of character, and really has that custom look.  It wasn't hard to decide the look I wanted for our puppy's custom piece of furniture and I'm just giddy with the way it turned out.

I give you a complete rundown and tutorial of how this Dog Bowl Stand was made.  I hope you are inspired!

Red, White, and Blue Porch Tour


From turquoise and lime to red, white, and blue!  My front porch got a complete decor over all this summer.  I like that it is transitional from the beauty of red and blue, to the holiday decor for 4th of July just by adding some American flags.

I give you an in depth tour of my front porch in the video linked below.  You'll see the sitting area, the front flower bed, and also the front door entry.  I hope that you are inspired!

IKEA Haul | Farmhouse Style Bedroom Decor



IKEA obsessed?  I think so!  Or at least I am anyway.  I just love that place.  I'm a total sucker for all of it's advertising ploys, food specials, rows of stocked merchandise that look so appealing... even if you don't need an item or know what you'll do with it when you get home but you buy it anyway.  Yep, that's me.  Pure love.

We waited a long time to get an IKEA in our area.  I had never been to one till this one was built.  Even before it was open, I knew I'd have a love/love relationship with this amazing store.

Alright, enough about my odd love for IKEA.  Onto the topic of this video haul.  We are I am in the middle of a bedroom remodel.  From blues and whites to neutral and farmhouse(y).  I love (again I love), that IKEA has some great decor items that fit right into that decor theme.  I give you a look into the items that I purchase for our bedroom makeover and also explain what I'll be doing with them all in the video linked below.  I hope you are inspired!

DIY Chalk Painted Fabric


If there is an easier way, I tend to go that route.  Especially when it comes to crafting and decorating.  My awesome mom passed this chair down to me when she got a new replacement for her home.  I loved this chair, just not so much the yellow and orange accents.  They matched her decor to a "T," however not so much my neutral color pallet farmhouse style home.  I could have slip covered it.  I thought about doing that with drop cloth.  Then I thought, that will take a lot of time and some skills that I am not so sure I have (sewing).  So maybe one day down the road I will get brave and slipcover something, but the project was not it.

Instead of slip covering the chair, I decided to enhance it's beauty.  I used some chalk paint and a paint brush, that's it!  Check out my video linked down below to see the before and after, as well as how I transformed this chair to match my bedroom's new style.  I hope you are inspired!

DIY Scrap Wood Sign | 4th of July Decor


I always say, save those scraps!  I even go as far as cutting bad pieces of scrap off and keeping the good parts.  They always seem to get used in some way or another, so it's always good to keep them around.

This wood sign is made with all scraps from my scrap pile.  I ripped some 1"x12"s down and had nice square strips left over.  Not knowing what they would be good for, I threw them into the scrap pile.  Those pieces found their purpose in today's tutorial.  They created this beautiful framed wood sign to celebrate the upcoming 4th of July holiday.

See all the details of this project and build in the tutorial I've created below.
I hope you are inspired!
