MMS Brush Soap
One of the cool things that’s come out of this milk paint line is having the opportunity to work with other entrepreneurs. So many amazing business owners have partnered with me to manufacture, distribute, promote, retail and teach about the products in our line.

painting a primitive cupboard
A week or two prior to Lucketts, I spotted an amazing primitive cupboard on Craig’s List. I intended to buy it to sell at the event, but I was absolutely smitten with it and decided to keep it. Believe it or not, I’m usually pretty disciplined about that sort of thing, but this piece was […]
Ironstone 201
I get asked a lot of questions about ironstone and you can read about the basics in my Ironstone 101 post. In that post, I answer questions like, “Is all ironstone white?”, “What is ironstone?” and “How do you identify it when it’s unmarked?” In this post, I’ll get into more details about price, which […]

alarm clock jackpot & other finds
Today, our realtor had a “broker’s open house” at our home, so I had to find something to do away from home. I’ve been having a lot of tightness and, not quite pain, but discomfort in my shoulders and neck. My trapezius muscles to be more specific. That’s where I hold my stress and it […]
