Time to get crafty and rock our some fun, unique, upcycled, inspiring, thrifty, and beautiful creations
Last week I refinished this fab table to help contain the insanity that is my entryway, but there was still the issue of all that mish mash mess under the table. I found this at the thrift store and turned it into this! She is a bit beat up, but she is big and I ... continue reading
This beauty was $5.95 at my fave Thrift Store. I loved the simplicity of the design and I knew it could look better....couldn't look worse! My friend was in the market for a new dresser in her daughter's bedroom and when she saw this one in my garage she thought it would be perf. At ... continue reading
Check out my retro lookin, 1970's feelin, hipster chairs. Each chair was $2.99 and they looked lovely in the torn blue vinyl they were sportin before I went to town them. 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
This funky little fella was supposed to go to the shop and be sold, but I decided to keep it because I fell in love! "Huh?" you say. Well it didn't still look like that after I got my paint splattered hands on it! I found this photo on Pinterest from Julia at 551 Designs ... continue reading
Back at it with the chalk paint! This time I had to try black. When I visited and toured The Little Black Chair warehouse, they were working on an A-MA-ZING black armoire. So, I decided this pair of cruddy chairs could use the black homemade chalk paint treatment. $2.95 each baby! What a steal I ... continue reading
Buying any kind of new wood furniture is like insane to me. You can find such amazing and sturdy pieces in thrift stores, at garage sales, and on craigslist every day. A little TLC can reveal something way more unique, interesting and earth friendly than what you will buy new in a store. I had ... continue reading
I LOVE chevron-it is cute and fun and I would love to have a splash of it somewhere in my home. So I decided to finally give it a shot on the top of this little table I found at a thrift store for $3.99. I painted this little one up with some white paint ... continue reading
Hands down, my fave-fave-fave project to date. Let me paint a picture.... I was wandering aimlessly through the ARC at 9:46 last Monday morning, when suddenly a vibrant light shone out from across the store, I was catapulted through the aisle and grabbed this baby with wide open arms. Her pricetag read $25.99 and I ... continue reading
A few weeks ago I featured this amazing post from No Minimalist Here in my Good Morning Sunshine series. Sherry posted about her escapades with homemade chalk paint and she found success with only spending $4.00 $4.00 Do you know how much that dang chalk paint costs? Like $89 a quart....well, no not really, but ... continue reading
I still had 6 wooden pallets in my garage from a neighbors sod delivery. They were super happy to get rid of the pallets so easily, but my husband wept as he said goodby to his garage parking space. (I'm exaggerating-kinda). I was tired of hearing his crying, so I got to thinking and came ... continue reading
