She asked me if I thought I could ... continue reading

"That wood? Right there? With all the splinters and rusty broken nails sticking out of it? You are going to use that for a headboard?" Um, yeah...

I painted them both black and then distressed them a bit. I stenciled both of the back rests. I found some super fun 70's ... continue reading

I know jealousy is a terrible quality, however I have been sweating all of the electrical and cable spool upcycles I have seen around blog town lately. I was so sad, because I have no access to them, never see them lying about, don't have any connection to big electrician or cable installers. Well, lookee ... continue reading
