Creative Thursday – it’s all faux
Happy Thursday, friends!!! I am so excited to introduce y’all to a fun new blog hop that Tara, from Stilettos and Shiplap , Shae, from Sweet Southern Grace , and I have put together.

This month, we’re doing faux florals for fall! The rules were simple, use faux florals, or a mix of faux and real, and must stay within a $15 budget! Seems easy enough, right? Well, for me it was a bit of a struggle. I…

Easy To Make & Inexpensive Fall Wreath
Happy Thursday, friends!! I hope you’re having a fantastic week! Today, I want to show you a super simple, fall wreath that you can seriously make in hardly any time at all! Start with a grapevine wreath. You can click HERE, to purchase a wreath like the one that I used. Grab some greenery, I used fresh eucalyptus and a few seed pods from a golden rain tree, but faux would look really pretty too. If you prefer faux, here is a great option. Click HERE to check it out.

The good, the bad, and the ugly ~ selling on the Facebook Marketplace
Happy Monday, sweet friends!! I have been so incredibly busy these last few weeks, so if I haven’t replied to your email(s)/comment(s), please know that I’m working on it! Y’all are the best! I appreciate all the love and support that y’all show!! Anyone who has ever read my blog before, knows that I absolutely LOVE to give new life to old, broken, beaten down, pieces of furniture. It’s such a fun creative outlet! Because I usually end up falling in love with almost every piece that I redo, often times I go back and forth between selling and keeping the items, but unfortunately I just don’t have a place…

Flower Arranging
Happy Thursday, sweet friends! How’s your week going? My week is flying by! Probably because I’ve been so busy! I have been working on something that I am sooo excited about! Remember a little while back, I sold this desk… And, I used the money to buy a bed frame. A bed frame that I have been dreaming about for years, and finally found! It’s getting so close to being finished, but it’s not done yet, so I’ll just give you a little sneak peak! Here she is, pre-paint…. Isn’t she stunning!! Look at those details! I really went back and forth between painting the bed, and leaving it as…

Top Shelf Clearance Challenge ~ September
Happy Monday, friends!!! It was a busy weekend full of football games, projects, and lots of fun! After such a busy weekend, I am excited to start the week off with something fun and easy, our monthly clearance challenge! This month, I found some silver colored candle stick holders on clearance at Target. SOURCE They were originally $12.99, but are on clearance right now for just $3.88 each!! I have been eyeing these beauties for a hot second, so of course, I picked some up, just as soon as I noticed that they were on clearance! I normally gravitate towards brass candlesticks for the fall/winter months, but I’m totally loving…

The art of a shelfie
Happy Thursday, friends!! I had so many sweet comments about my shelf decor yesterday, y’all are the best! And, I always get questions about how I get my shelves to look so good. I, of course, don’t think they look amazing. I guess it’s true…we are all our own worst critics! Today, I wanted to take y’all through the crazy process that I take to get to a happy little shelfie. Here is what the shelves looked like last week… I made a hand lettered fall sign, that I showed y’all yesterday, which led me to redoing the shelves a bit, to fit the vibe of the sign…. It started…

Hand Lettered Fall Sign
Happy Wednesday, friends! I hope y’all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend! Labor Day is always such a bitter sweet time for me. I’m sad that summer is starting to come to an end, but also so excited for all things fall, with all the cozy vibes! What better way to celebrate all things fall, than with a fall sign blog hop, hosted by Terrie, Decorate And More With Tip . For my sign, I started with a frame from an old mirror. The mirror was broken and sitting in my basement, ready to be reimagined! I attached, using brad nails, some tongue-and-groove boards… Stained the wood… Then I decided…

Glass Glittered Pumpkins
Happy, happy Friday!! So, y’all know how much I adore vintage and DIYs? These pumpkins, with vintage glass glitter, have a vintage vibe that helps them fit right in with all of my vintage treasures, in my DIY china hutch. Here’s how simple they are to make… Find some faux pumpkins with a cute shape. Carefully pull the stem out, unless you want to glitter the stem too. Brush with glue, and sprinkle with glitter. After dry, reinsert the stem, and that’s it! Super easy!! I’m loving them in my china hutch, surrounded by ironstone, transferware, and other vintage dishes and treasures! Isn’t that little pumpkin boy adorable? I found…
