It’s been a while since I shared a good ole Dollar Tree makeover. I especially love when the makeovers are as simple as this one. I grabbed up a couple bundles of these maple leaves right when all of the fall decor started hitting the shelves at the beginning of the season. I had some gold metallic spray paint on hand for another project I had planned and decided it would be the perfect touch for these cheap little maple leaves. I like to keep this color on standby for all types of makeovers. It’s timeless and so chic. I made…

This little craft wood pumpkin is my first pumpkin project of the season and I promise it won’t be the last. I am loving this super cute wood piece from the Craft Wood Club. I made this super cute DIY Riser using this same shape. I love how versatile these wood pieces can be. I started this craft wood pumpkin by adding little half sphere beads to the perimeter of my craft wood piece. I am working on a template for this shape. These seasonal shapes are perfect for exercising this creative brain of mine. If you’re anything like me I…

It may been 100 and heck degrees outside but we have been all out Christmas in July this week at the shoppe! It felt so good to get on the saws and let my creativity come to light. You all LOVED the kits so much I was able to partner up with a local Amish craftsman to bulk produce these rustic Christmas wood projects! I have always been drawn to wood projects but these might just take the cake in the Christmas department. All of these projects were cut using a bandsaw and a jigsaw. I’m not saying this is…

A couple weeks ago I grabbed these hefty bookends at a yard sale for $3. Really the whole day of hunting was a bust but finding these beauties turned the day around! That really is the joy in thrifting and hunting for those unique items. I hope this thrifted bookend makeover will inspire you on your next trip to the thrift store. When you’re on the hunt I suggest looking for items with “good bones” I know I probably wear that phrase out but it really is the most useful tip to remember. Paint, stain and in this case, concrete…

Avid DIY’ers and crafters know what it’s like to accidentally discover a technique. That was definitely the case for this weathered paint look I used on the DIY garden terrarium. Really it was impatience and my messy crafting habits that led to the discovery of this technique, but it really did work out in my favor. What I mean by weathered paint is that natural chippy-ness and peeling paint look on old wood pane windows or doors that have years of wear and tear and layers of paint. Yeah, that’s the good stuff we are going for here. Here is what…
