Every week I try to take some time to myself and do a little bit of crafting and DIY’ing. This week I decided to share this adorable tart pan makeover. Not only was the process was incredibly simple but also incredibly affordable. It all began with a quick trip to the thrift store last week. That’s when I came across a beautiful glass cake topper and scooped it up. There was no base but I thought it would still be beautiful on a plate, that was until I turned the corner and found this amazing little tart pan. It was a…

I feel like I have been on a roll at the thrift store lately. This thrift store urn caught my attention right away with its French Farmhouse DIY vibes. I paid a whopping 25 cents for this little piece with BIG potential among some other great thrifty decor finds from that day! The next time you’re out thrifting or maybe you find yourself pumping the breaks for a yard sale, keep this little urn in mind. This is one of those pieces with “good bones.” The shape, the texture…all the things are right but it just needs a liiiiitle something. That’s…

Yesterday, I took somewhat of a “personal” day and decided to step away from the computer and go on a hunt for thrift store decor. Browsing the isles and searching for misplaced treasures is seriously one of my very favorite ways to pass time. That’s the thing about thrifting, or just stopping in on a whim. Sometimes you win big and other times you walk away empty handed. But either way, there was the hunt. And the truth is, sometimes you just need to take a personal day and lose yourself doing something you love, because you love it. And not…

I have been looking for a good way to texturize my fall DIY projects (did you see what I did to this thrifted planter?) and I finally found the solution with this DIY sand paint recipe. I was inspired by a saltwash painting technique my friend Chasida at Custom Southern Co. shared with her followers on Facebook and it got my wheels turning. I wanted to find a way to recreate what she had done for my own projects since I didn’t have her medium on hand. This is the recipe I used to make my own textured sand paint. Ingredients…
