Do you need something GREAT to hang on your wall? Some budge wall decor for a large wall. Or small, this would work in a small space too. I have a super idea for you and if you stick with me you'll catch the best budget buster tip for this idea! I had this rug (above) that I love the design of, but it was so thin and moved around on the floor, even with a rug pad under it. It just wasn't functional as a rug. Queue the tears. Instead of donating it or selling it I decided to go vertical with ... continue reading...

Dollar Store St. Patrick’s Day Wreath

117 Things to Teach Your Kids Before They Move Out
This post started off as a simple discussion around our dinner table. My husband and I tossed around a list of things we should teach our kids before they leave home and move out on their own. It was just a few things we had noticed they didn't know how to do yet. And then I asked Facebook what else should be on our list. Facebook always has lots of input! I complied the list for myself, but I am betting you either have some teens about to be on their own or you know someone who does. Maybe ... continue reading...

DIY Painted Terracotta Pots with a Shabby Chic Feel
I love to take a simple terracotta pot and make it fit into my vintage style decor. You know - make a plain pot rustic and aged, make it feel worn and broken in.

Plant Little Seeds
Growing up I wasn't really raised in the church. We went on occasion, but were not an every Sunday kind of family. Not even an every month kind. Faith was not a huge part of our lives, we didn't talk about it much. But growing up there was a picture that hung on our wall and it always intrigued me. We had a big gameroom with a pool table and bar, it was an awesome place to hang out. My parents did lots of entertaining there and I had many a birthday party myself. One wall was covered in ... continue reading...
