This poor fireplace has been around! It was originally meant to go in our master bedroom, but it was too small. So I did what I always do, put it away until I can think of what I can use it for. Well I guess this guy just didn’t want to leave us, because after [...]
Remember my inspiration post about Miss Mustard Seed’s blog? Well I took her advice and I have now finished my first project using my paint sprayer. Just to bring you up to speed, I got each chair for $7 at the thrift shop on one of their half price days. They were in perfect shape [...]
Honestly, this is a happy post! I just wanted to give you a little background on how this all came about, so that hopefully you can feel my excitement of my finished project. When we first built our home, we had solid carved wood doors with an iron transom above the door. Attached to the [...]
This year I hadn’t really done much for the 4th of July as far as decorating. So saturday I decided I needed to get into the spirit since we were having people over for a 4th of July bbq. I went to the farmers market and got red carnations and roses and some white [...]

I feel in love with this outdoor pillow from Pottery Barn the other day. They have some great outdoor pillows on their site and reasonable too. This one was $35, a little more than most of them but really cute and looked hand painted {or at least the illusion of it being hand painted} Once [...]
It is REALLY windy in this part of my yard, it is a little area that sits on top of a hill. I mean crazy windy, gust and everything. Would you believe that this is my second iron gazebo in this spot? Yep, the first one blew over the hill into pieces! Seriously, that is [...]
I am not a photographer by any means, but I was given a nice camera for my birthday last year and it happened to be around my neck as I was walking through my yard, so I just started snapping pictures. I was admiring the beautiful day through my camera lens, taking random pictures of [...]
I saw two of the cutest train cases at a flea market that were painted white and wrapped in burlap and lace . They were just stunning! I came so close to buying them, but they were a little too big for where I wanted to put them. This weekend, I attempted to recreate what [...]
