FURNITURE FEATURE FRIDAY
Good evening, all! I have been working on a lot of projects lately, so I needed to spend today catching up on my e-mail and running errands. It’s not glamorous, but it needed to be done. Jeff and I went around the house today and put together a to-finish list. We have lots of little […]
Installing a Light
I usually focus on bigger projects and overlook little things…small details that would make a big difference if I just took the time to do them! We’ve lived in our home for almost eight years and I hardly ever notice this sad light that hangs out by the side door. It looks faded, dirty, tired. […]
Decor Steals – Vintage Laundry Basket & Giveaway
A few years ago, I found a vintage wire laundry basket in an antique store when out shopping with my friend. I loved that piece and held onto it for a long time. Then, one year at Lucketts, I sold out of almost everything the first day, so I raided my house and took the […]

Guest Bedroom Progress…

Furniture Fanatic
If you’ve spent any amount of time on my blog, you know I love furniture. I’m pretty sure it started with the $10 antique dresser I bought at a yard sale about 12 years ago. I shoved it in the backseat of my car, carried it up to our balcony apartment and refinished it. I […]
Last Week's Finds
When I get home from shopping, I like to open all of the bags and boxes and spread everything out on the dining room table. I think it has to do with feeling a sense of accomplishment. This is what I did today. It’s harder to feel that when it’s out of sight. I think […]
