Peel and Stick Backsplash: Yes or No?

I've done the groundwork, got my hands dirty, and I've got some thoughts... but I'll be honest up front and tell you- IT DEPENDS.

Budget Bathroom Makeover
Having recently moved into my Husband's fishing cabin house, I've had quite the to-do list of home projects. The master bathroom has been eating away at me since the first moment I stepped foot into it, I do have to look at it every day after all.

How to Make Pressed Penny Bracelet
I've always enjoyed getting "unique" souvenirs when I travel. Sometimes it's vintage decor I come across (if I'm lucky) but oftentimes it was these pressed pennies. The machines are usually easy to find and I think it's such a fun little way to remember good times with your people (not to mention one of the most budget-friendly souvenirs you will ever find). The only issue I've personally been facing is years of collecting pressed pennies with absolutely no idea of how to showcase them. I didn't ... continue reading...
