Wait till you see these! Today I’ll show you how to make these adorable wood Christmas trees out of weathered fence boards and some left-over scraps. It’s always around this time of the year that I start thinking about all the DIY Christmas decor projects I want to make. And because I like to put […]
Oh, I’m excited to share this project! Rustic Christmas decor is my style and goes well with my modern farmhouse decor. The little wooden churches give me all the feels! Great memories of the little country church I attended as a child—population 25… on a good Sunday. Let’s get started… This post contains a few […]
My friends laugh at me when I tell them that my car automatically starts to shimmy and slows down when garages sales and curbside junk is near. I ain’t even kidding! I’m always on the lookout for roadside treasures, and when I spotted these leftovers, the wheels immediately started turning in my head. Oh, the […]
I got a call one evening from a friend wanting to know if I wanted a table. The logical part of my brain would have asked what kind of condition it was in, but the FREE part of my brain took over, and logic never made it to the surface. No matter the condition, I […]
While shopping one day at a home decor store, I came across some cool wooden tags. It was one of those “I can make those” moments. Usually, I say that but don’t follow through and return later to purchase and find they have all been sold out. Not this time! Well, it’s not the usual […]
These vintage 1920’s Peerless Reproducer Cathedral Wooden Vintage Speakers are the find of the century for me. I found these gems at The Re-Store with Habitat For Humanity. There’s just too much history not to save them and I remember Grandma talking about how they would all sit around and listen to the programs. Can […]
They know me all too well. I just can’t say no to FREE stuff. It’s one of my weaknesses. My son and daughter in law gave me all their leftover plastic chargers from their wedding. For years now, they have set on a shelf in the garage, just calling to me every time I walk […]
Pretty often and more times than none, I purchase old pieces based on a feeling or vision. That may sound strange; this antique washstand was one of those visions. I used the little washstand for a short time as a coffee bar in my kitchen, but then “Joanna Gaines” came along with the whole fixer-upper […]
In the last few months, I have been playing around making wall art decor from an old wood pallet. I also have a graveyard (that’s what I call it) of repurposed weathered fence pickets. It’s a gold mine and I have so many ideas for other DIY projects. But for this project, I chose to […]
I had been searching for a recycled furniture project when I happened across this sad little chest. It was a Saturday morning and time for a little junking. I needed a few more furniture projects to keep on hand for when the creative moment strikes. So, I swung by and picked up my best junk-loving […]
