Growing up, Thanksgiving meals were always held at my Grannie’s farmhouse here in Western Kentucky. Most of our family lived within a 5 mile radius and we all piled in the modest, wood-paneled, den and kitchen area. There were so many cousins, aunts and uncles we were quite literally piled on top of each other.…
Y’all, I went to my very first vintage market this past weekend Yes, you heard me right. It was my first time at a market like this, and I am certain heaven is full of rows and rows of hand selected vintage items and home made goods. I have been to flea markets and trade…
I am a sucker for a nice heavily distressed paint job. It is a great way to give new pieces of furniture a beautiful look of old age and history. It is no secret that it has become a very popular go-to look for refinishing those outdated pieces you snagged at a yardsale or just…
This little project was literally what one might call a “happy little accident” Making a mini magnolia wreath was not really where I was headed with this one. I was sharing a DIY Wood Block House on a Facebook Live when I realized my original idea for a mini wreath was turning out to be…

If you know me then you know how much I enjoy walking the isles of the dollar store. It’s exciting to see all the amazing goodies you can find for $1. Even if the product itself is a little “meh” I encourage you to think outside the box and imagine it with a fresh coat…
I seriously can’t believe it time to start thinking about Halloween already! This time of year for us is insanely busy…from birthdays to holidays it stays jam packed! So I get that it may be a bit early for Halloween for some but if I don’t plan ahead it just will not happen. This projects…
Since moving in our home a little over a year ago, we have done several DIY projects together as a family. Most of which I regret not documenting. My favorite project to date was the dining room table we built as a family. I did capture a few of the special moments of us building…
There is only one thing better than buffalo check.…buffalo check flannel! This project all stemmed from my need for pumpkins to mingle in with my fall decor. Grab you some fabric (or an old flannel shirt) and a old pillow and you’re on your way to DIY pumpkin heaven! Grab a pillow you don’t mind…
