When I was tossing around ideas for creating a kitchen island, I knew without a doubt that I wanted to repurpose SOMETHING, but I wan’t too sure on what. Of course, if you follow the blog, then you already know we decided on the dresser in the image below. I am super pleased with how…
This DIY has got to be one of the easiest creations I have made in a while. It took me all of 5 minutes, maybe less to complete this DIY. It all started with a plain lamp shade, stamps and a love for all things vintage. If you have these three things handy then you…
Recently we just wrapped up a big DIY project where we created an island using an old thrifted dresser. From the very start I knew I wanted an authentic, chippy, aged finish. If you talk to all the “decor styling experts” they may tell you that the farmhouse trends are on thier way out. and…
