Got Corks?
Do you drink wine? Or have friends that drink wine? Well I hope this little Christmas project will inspire you to save up those wine corks! I have saved so many wine corks over the years. I needed to make a Secret Santa gift for someone and I decided to try making something with the… Continue reading Got Corks?
Headboard Turned What??
I found this old headboard and footboard, behind a bin an alley behind some stores. It looked so trashed but, it had good bones. This may have been a nice bed at one time, but it had so many holes in the front of headboard, you could tell it had a lot of wear. I knew instantly… Continue reading Headboard Turned What??
Drawers Repurposed
If you have been thinking what to do with a old dresser, or the drawers....I have a wonderful treat for you! I have gathered some ideas on the internet that I think will inspire you!

I can almost promise you, once you complete an… Continue reading Finders Keepers!

Battle of the Birds
This is such a frustrating tale. It's about my battle with birds, and pomegranates are the prize. I have always loved pomegranates.

It wasn't a hard task.… Continue reading Battle of the Birds

Up Cycled CD/DVD Cabinet
This was a fun project. My son didn't want this cd/dvd cabinet anymore, so it ended up in my craft room. I thought about it for a bit, and then came up with the idea of putting my spray paints and chalk paints in it for storage. That would work out super! This is what… Continue reading Up Cycled CD/DVD Cabinet
Rusty, Crusty Chair Makeover
My BFF gave me these two outdoor patio chairs and dresser when she moved ;( The two chairs are rockers also...which I love! There was a lot of rust on the chairs. I first cleaned off the crusty rusty parts, especially around the feet. Rust had collected in seat and backs which have a open- weave-… Continue reading Rusty, Crusty Chair Makeover
