So, I think I am officially off my crafting rocker. I’ve got three adorable Dollar Store Pumpkin Makeovers for you today and… I’ve named them. And made up personas for them. It’s not my fault, they are very cute pumpkins and they just sort of spoke to me. Have I lost my mind? …
What can you make for less than $10, a coupon and an old shirt? You can make a lot of things, conceivably, however, I took my $10, coupon and old shirt and made a lovely Fall Wreath! In the end, the finished wreath that I have hanging on my door today took less than …
Last week I shared my painted rock obsession with you and this week, as promised, I’m back with my spin on DIY Painted Rocks. Guys, I have been painting rocks for days. I had so much fun with this. I started out trying to copy some of the inspiration rocks I found, but eventually, I …

So, I’ve made a commitment to redoing my fireplace with the German Shmear application. That’s the one you’ve seen on Fixer Upper where they shmear mortar over the brick so that it’s mostly white with some red peeking through. However, I have learned my lesson on jumping right into a craft and not doing a …
How is it possible that Easter is a week away? I couldn’t let it pass without an Easter DIY! I’ve been meaning to try DIY Bath bombs craft and plastic Easter eggs seemed like they would be the perfect mold for bath bombs (they weren’t, but we’ll get to that in a minute!). I had …
Ever volunteer for something and then realize, with terror, that you have no idea what exactly you are doing?
