The day the LORD created HOPE was probably the same day He created SPRING. I love that! Let’s make some artwork based on it! Grab a piece of wood. In this case, I used 1′ x 2′ scrap of 1/4″ plywood. Grab a paintbrush and some good white primer. ( I like Kilz.) Put 2 […]

Franken-Crafts. Making something outta a whole bunch of junk…
On Monday I showed you this picture of a bunch of random items: This is what I made: Here’s another look: Here’s how I did it: I got this funky footed bowl with a lid at my local Goodwill. I really like the bowl, but wasn’t too wild about the lid. I think it […]
Holy Cow-hide! A dresser make-over.
Hooray! I might actually be ahead of a trend! There was a fabulous collection of cowhide rugs show-cased at The Stories of A to Z. I don’t know that I want a whole (very expensive!) hide. However, I am glad I hung on to a dresser re-do from a while back. I did this project […]
Do I make my own decorations? Of course I do!
I love my Christmas Artwork. It says “Love is what’s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.” (Handsome Hubby likes my artwork, but says the two wreaths look like a cat killed a bird on them….) I also bling-ed out my FREE chandy, which has now been at […]
Useless, but pretty.
Tis the season for Stuff We Don’t Need. What could be more useless than these….? But you know what? They’re pretty. I’d like ’em if I got them as a gift. You know what else? They’re cheap and easy. You’ll need a heavy duty adhesive (I like Goop), spray paint and glitter or other embellishments. […]
The chameleon chandelier is back. Again.
Handsome Hubby asked me if I was going to use THE chandelier in our Christmas decor this year. Originally I said no. I’m so glad I did not listen to me. This free chandy has gotten a lot of use. Who knew?! (Well, I knew when I got it….) It’s been done for Christmas, for […]
Christmas artwork
I change up my Christmas color scheme every year. Last year was Black & Gold, this year is White & Silver. I realized my orange Family Rules subway art was going to harsh my Christmas mellow… I needed a temporary replacement. So! I decided to make another one for Christmas. It doesn’t perfectly match my […]
Twig and leaf fall centerpieces.
I love entertaining. I feel like a grown up now that we host Thanksgiving each year. I love any excuse to make new centerpieces or to try a new recipe. (I also appreciate the motivation to really clean the house…) This year, I have been loving sticks and branches. First of all, they’re free. Second, […]
How to make a Haunted Tree. (With things you already have, of course.)
I’ve mentioned that we’re throwing a Halloween Party and I am trying my best to decorate for pennies on the dollar. So far I’ve spent about $38 on supplies ($30 of which went to black spray paint) and I think I’m in pretty good shape. We have a bare planter that is right off our […]
