I’ve shared lots of canvas art ideas here, including my polka dot canvas, 10 creative solutions for blank walls post, and my cameo silhouette post. So, when I needed a large piece of art to hang above the banquette in my kitchen, …

Hello, Lovelies! I’ve gotten a few compliments/questions about my living room window treatments lately, so I wanted to share this post from three years ago with you all…and you know the window treatments are a winner when they’re still up three years later:) I’ve been eyeing the drop cloth curtain trend for a while now. And though …

Hello, readers! First, a confession: I am most definitely a candle person. When I saw the above candle at Target the other day, I just adored the fresh, Spring-y scent, but knew the pink color scheme would not match my living room decor (does this kind of thing bother anyone else)? I bought it anyway, and …

When I was contacted about a new social sharing site called 3rd Revolution, I was eager to give it a try. It’s a bit of a combination between Facebook and Pinterest…you can share updates that others can comment on, as well as share (and browse) projects that you (and others) have created. It’s easy to set …

Many moons ago, before I had this blog and when my now-four-year-old was a newborn, I came across a brilliant Father’s Day gift that my husband received for his first “Daddy’s Day.” You simply take wooden letters to spell the word “DAD”, and take pictures of your kids holding them and being their naturally cute selves, and …

I really love using mirrors in my home. I have at least one per room, and I love that they can be pretty, functional, and make the space feel larger. I have new mirrors, thrifted mirrors, DIY mirrors…and now this: an inexpensive, pick-your-color, balsa wood mirror that’s hanging in our bedroom….  Materials: balsa wood (aka “craft” wood, found at …
