I pinned the heck out of home stuff from West Elm and Anthropologie this week. I’d like to try some DIY versions of a few of these. Perhaps. These birds are my newest obsession. I want all of them right now. And I want to build little bird houses for them. And bird furniture. …
I’m about to kill you with cuteness. Remember the little Valentine Monsters I made in February? Well, I’ve been dying to make an Easter Bunny. So, I did. And you can, too! Here’s the little guy: Is he too cute for words or what? If you remember back when I did the Valentine monsters, my …
Ok, technically, I think it’s a door, but it reminds me of millions of repurposed window ideas I’ve seen. After removing the door from Sir Hutchington, I was left with, well, the door.

Sometimes the stars align and you find things that you love, that are “you” and that you can afford, all in one place. That place for me is H&M. I shop for clothes there compulsively. Their home line is equally obsession worthy. I’ve put together a few of my favorites for the blog because I …
I made art. I repurposed and then I added a touch of upcycle, a dash of DIY, a hint of watercolor and I made art on a canvas. Feeling pretty good about me right now. Here it is: Pretty, right? I think I’ll keep tweaking it, but it’s a start. Let me take you back …
Folks, I have a bona fide DIY project to share with you. Remember my blah hutch that I was searching for inspiration for? Well, I got the project underway and I am 3/4 of the way done. I haven’t decided whether or not to paint the background of the hutch a different color, so it …
I tried three! new recipes this week. Ok, so I only got to try two of them, but my husband gave the third a stamp of approval (remember this post about how I fooled myself into thinking I had a touch of the stomach bug? Well, in addition to fooling myself, I also tempted the fates …
