Before & After: Thrift Store Shelf
Filed under: Arts and Crafts, Before & After, DIY, Home Decor Ideas, Vintage Finds
When I saw this little shelf at the thrift store I got really excited. I love fun thrift store furniture but I do not like faux wood pressed board or anything brown for the most part. So I painted it Pistachio. It took about 2 cans of spray paint because I maybe should have sanded it better but I am happy with the result. A little paint really helps sometimes.
Oh I want this…
I need to add this Japanese Doily Pattern stamp to my stamp collection. Geninne from Geninne's Art Blog carved her doily stamp herself. She is so crafty, check out her...
We have a hammock!
Last week Ben and I received a wedding present and it is my favorite gift thus far other than our teapot. I love our hammock so much that I think about it while I'm at work. Earlier today I made a plan that included June and Zoe (our dogs), Abita Strawberry Harvest Lager, my backyard, Ben and our hammock. So this Monday hasn't been half bad. We hung our hammock over our little creek. So if you fall out, you get wet. I think it is more...

Does Good Friday lead to Better Saturday?
Happy Easter! Last night a couple of my friends and I had a little craft night. These are the Easter Eggs they dyed. I hadn't really thought about dyeing Easter eggs this year but now I think I might. I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter Holiday. ...

Mixed Tape from Ben
My husband is wonderful and I have mentioned before that he makes mixed CDs (not actually mixed tapes) for me for holidays and random occasions. I love these CDs so much. Isn't a mixed CD such a thoughful gift? I decided to share this mixed CD because I think that you can tell a lot about a person by the music they enjoy. This is a list of songs from the CD he made for me for Christmas 2009. Christmas 2009 Mix Side Note: Ben said, "I...
