DIY

  While out thrift shopping I kept seeing this dry sink. I’ve never had much luck with dry sinks because I feel they still look outdated even after I’ve repainted/repurposed them. Well this dry sink had been at the store so long that it was marked an additional 50% off the already low price. So being that I’m addicted to …

When I was making my usual Sunday Goodwill run I found this little cabinet.  My first thought was that it would make a really cute bathroom stand/cabinet.  It was a little beat up, but no major work needed done other than tightening it up and painting it.   After   Some of the screws were missing from the top,  which …

Hi everyone, Abby here!  I hope you’ve been enjoying your summer!  I’m back again to share another super easy DIY with you all: the No-sew T-shirt bag. In an effort to be more environmentally friendly, my husband and I have been accumulating reusable bags to use for everything.  Generally, we use ours for grocery shopping (some stores even give you …

  Ten years ago, newly married and before I had any type of decorating style and preferences, my husband and I purchased a traditional matching bedroom set that came with one headboard, two side tables, and two dressers. No thought went into it, it was just one of those purchases we thought we needed to make as a newly married …

  While out and about I found this darling little desk. Well, I don’t know that most would use the description of darling when I found it, but it was a nice sturdy desk with, in my eyes, a ton of potential! Good structure with only cosmetic changes needed–my favorite combo. So we begin…. To start the veneer on the top …

During the summer we tend to have a lot of cookouts at our house so when I saw this cooler/cart I thought it would be perfect for the back patio! The structure of the cart was in perfect condition and I was super excited to not have to do any major updating. Even the caster wheels work! When I saw …

While thrift shopping at Goodwill this week I found this adorable pig statue. I loved the look, but I wasn’t too keen on the color.  My first thought was to paint it! I normally only refinish furniture or anything made with wood material, but for the price of $5 I thought, hey, why not give it a try!     I …

  I got the new Target catalog in the mail a few weeks ago and I want it ALL! Sadly, ALL is not in our budget. This dotted, carved wooden stool is perfection. If one of these ever makes it to Goodwill, I beg you to contact me immediately!     In the meantime, I’ll just be over here painting white …

Whenever I spring clean my house, I always feel the need to change things around to make the room look a little different. Over the years I have figured out that if I refer to it as “revamping” the room instead of redecorating that seems to keep my husband from looking annoyed. This year spring cleaning/revamping started with our bathroom …

  While out shopping I saw this little beauty sitting and waiting for someone to swoop it up and give it some love. I thought this would be a great piece that could be used in several different rooms of a home: library, bedroom, home office, entry way, etc. Of course, this would be after it was cleaned up!   …
