How To Make Your Own Transferware Crock
If you know me, you know I LOVE my transferware... more specifically brown transferware! When I'm out and about thrifting, or strolling through a local garage sale, it's always on the brain. And you can bet your bottom dollar that if I see some, it's mine! The problem you run into is, it's sort of a get-what-you-get type situation. For example, if I'm wanting a brown transferware crock, it may be next to impossible to find! The good news here-- I will attempt to DIY anything... and this is NO ... continue reading...
Repurpose Cardboard Boxes for Simple Farmhouse Decor
We've always heard, "where there's a will, there's a way," right!? I have and always will firmly believe that! And my mission has always been to use, repurpose, recycle, upcycle, reuse, whatever you want to call it. I don't like the idea of throwing things away or wasting them when I KNOW I can breathe new life into them! And honestly, it's not even really because I'm a "save the planet" kind of person (granted, I'm not against it either-- I understand the movement), I just like to save money ... continue reading...
DIY To-Do List Holder From Scrap wood
I'm a list girl! Whatever it is, give me a list and I'll get it done-- but if it only exists in the clouds I'll never remember it. Can you relate?

And that's okay because that's life and I'm sure there will be a day where I wish I was running kids around and cooking for 4. But, until that day comes, a list is my lifeline and my ... continue reading...
Farmhouse Decor from a Paper Towel Roll
They always say one man's trash is another man's treasure... and that couldn't be more true in my world! I love to take items that were thrown away and forgotten about and make them new again, breathe new life into them-- it's like normal recycling but more fun and still good for the planet! I personally feel like there HAS to be a way to make paper towel rolls and toilet paper rolls without the center, but since that hasn't been figured out yet, I'm going to show you how to create farmhouse ... continue reading...
How to Use Old Soda Cans
As a family of 4, we go through soda cans like nobody's business.

I recently made some DIY cardboard labels if that's more your jam, but today we're talking about how to create your own tin tags... from old soda ... continue reading...

DIY Cardboard Labels for Beautiful Organizing
It's that time of year where organizing is on the brain, and I would imagine I'm not alone here. But, if you're like me, you don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on new bins and labels, and alllll of the other organizing things one might THINK they need. So, it's been a big goal of mine to organize "out in the open" using pieces I already have, but maybe in a unique and different way. With that being said, I love to easily access and find things, and I think labels are sort of the best way to ... continue reading...

The Best Vintage-Inspired Coffee Tables
Coffee tables are a must-have in every home, at least in my book anyway. They tie the living room together and serve as a catch-all, which can be good and bad! Of course we need a place to set the things, whether that be a snack or plate, drink, or maybe even your computer if you're like me and sometimes like to get work done right from your couch! But it's also just a wonderful and easy place to decorate-- it's like the centerpiece of the room (almost like the centerpiece of your dining room ... continue reading...
