This weekend, I was on a mission, and that mission was to use some of the many fabric remnants I had lying around with nothing to do. It was as if they were calling me, and I obliged. A few months ago I made some drapes and had about a yard of fabric left over, so I thought about making a table runner but a
We Updated Our Kitchen Island With AirStone!
Well, we did it! Some of you might remember we have (well, *I* have) been wanting to update our kitchen island at the cabin. I considered a few options and was shopping around for fabricated stone when I came across AirStone™ on, what else, Pinterest. Before I show you the big reveal, here are a few pictures from Airstone’s website: AirStone™ gives this small grill
Skeleton Leaf Tray
I’ve long been enamored with leaf motifs, so when I heard about skeleton leaves I did some research and found an online source that has a great selection of colors and various sizes. In my continuing quest to add some color to our cabin, I decided to embellish a simple white tray with the leaves. Supplies I used: Wood tray, approximately 21″ x 14″ Skeleton leaves
Easy DIY Chalkboard Refrigerator
Is it weird to be in love with a refrigerator?? This is the easiest project ever, and talk about a bang for your buck! Our refrigerator at the cabin is pretty old (despite what the realtor told us when we bought it, but I digress) and who knows how much longer it will last, but the side of it was really cheap looking and jarring
A Stone Veneer Kitchen Island
If you recall, I recently posted about our kitchen island and asked for advice and opinions on how to redo it. Well, last night the solution hit me like a ton of bricks (no pun intended) . We received the samples of the tin tiles I had ordered, and while one of them ‘wasn’t bad’, I could tell that idea wasn’t going to work. I
How To Make Beaded Placemats for a Round Table
I always try for the trifecta when it comes to projects: fast, easy and inexpensive. Well…one out of three will have to do this time around. This one is pretty easy, but it takes time, and the beads for four placemats can add up, so make sure you have your coupons! *edited to add* Beads are far less expensive at the Dollar Store than Michael’s
Kitchen Curtains
You would think buying kitchen curtains would be easy. Think again. The kitchen in our rental, well, let’s just say I call it our ‘vanilla’ kitchen. I like it though. The cabinets are the cheapest kind you can buy, but there are plenty of them. The kitchen is 16×14 which is pretty spacious for a house that is only 1250 sq. ft. The kitchen has
Ruffled Pillow
I love sewing pillows. Mostly because they’re pretty easy to do, and I don’t like complicated, intimidating projects. I started sewing in high school, so you would think by now I’d be a pro. But there were many years the sewing machine gathered dust, and up until recently, I never had a truly reliable machine so it was always quite frustrating. Anyone with a sewing
Reversible Painted Rug
A few weeks ago I shared a painted rug project that was super easy, fast and inexpensive. I figured at $59, why not try something else on the reverse side?! This would extend the life of the rug because I could simply change it up as my mood strikes me, and if I screwed it up it wasn’t a huge investment. Since the recent drapes
Gingerbread House Progressions
Ok, I know Christmas is over and most of us are ready to move on, but a couple of weeks ago I showed you this year’s Gingerbread House and mentioned I would post some pics of the houses our grandson and I have made over the years. I think it’s fun to look at how far he’s come! He is now 9, and I think
