Seeing this builder image of her soon-to-be new house's kitchen got me thinking that we really have cooked in a … [Read more...]

One of my favorite easy tricks to customize my lamps is to add a ribbon edge to the lampshade. You've seen it before in my house on my little blue and white lamp, but I don't think I ever wrote about how I did it. That's probably because it's so darned simple...but, of course, that's my favorite … [Read more...]

This is one of my favorite DIY projects ever, and as you can see, I hang these shutters up in every house. While we're down to just one dog now, sadly, Harley still needs a quiet place to retreat when we have small visitors, and this is the perfect solution.

I shared in this post HERE about how my husband and I jumped into a 'weekend' warrior project a few Saturdays ago {OK, I jumped and he got dragged}, but it was one that didn't go off as easily as we'd hoped and planned.
