I finally finished up a chair makeover I’ve been meaning to get to for awhile. I found this one at a thrift store last year and I bought it specifically for the vanity in my bathroom. I loved the curve of the legs and the size was perfect, but the fabric? No thank you. It…
It’s another round of BOTB, this time I’m bringing you a few of my favorite finds from around blog land, plus a bunch spotted by another contributor. Say hello to Abi from Gadding Gal! She’s a DIY and travel loving gal after my own heart, and I’m so happy to bring Abi on board as…
The other day a series of tweets went around on a very serious subject, one that is near and dear to my heart. There is a dangerous illness sweeping the nation, and it is a grave problem. I’m warning you, if you ever get bit by this bug, it is unlikely that you will recover. Here’s…
Greetings all, TGIF! The sun popped out and all of a sudden and I’m soooo wanting to visit the garden department this weekend to fill up some planters. Spring fever has definitely set in! Announcing the winner of last weekend’s Campbell Hausfeld giveaway. Over 1,500 entries, wow you peeps love power tools! Guess who gets…
With all of the craziness of the last two months, it goes without saying things are completely wacky around here! We’re lost in transition somewhere between the start of spring and the chore of cleaning up Christmas. I solicited the little ones to help me over the weekend. Their idea of cleaning up is…
There’s been a few emails, wondering what I think of the new Countertop Transformations kit by RustOleum, the latest product to hit the market, offering a relatively inexpensive solution to existing laminate countertops, compared to the expense of replacement. I used the kit two weeks ago while attending a RustOleum event in New Orleans. As…
One of the things I love about seasons are those moments when they reveal themselves. Like when the leaves turn in fall, or when that first snow falls in winter. Sure, winter is magical during the holidays, and even through January. Then comes that longing for warmer weather, so we wait and wait for the…
It’s no secret I’ve been using Rust-Oleum paint products for years. I remember back in 2009 when I was spray painting everything that stood still ‘Heirloom White’. I went through my ‘Gloss White’ phase, then I dabbled in so many of their colorful and specialty spray paints. I truly believe they have the best quality…

Happy day friends, how’s your Monday? Can you believe it’s almost February? Good gracious time’s a flyin’ by. I couldn’t let this month end without sharing just a few of my favorite projects, images, and articles found online. I love citrus in January, especially Heather’s mandarins. This stenciled ceiling from Not JUST a Housewife…
Greetings friends! I’ve arrived safely in Nashville, y’all!! I love this place, they have rocking chairs in the airport while you wait for your luggage. Well that’s just down home southern hospitality if you ask me. The BBQ here is divine, and I can’t wait to head downtown to hear some live music later this week! …
Board and batten is all the rage in DIY land, and for very good reason. It’s a fantastic way to add architectural interest to your home and a project any homeowner can tackle. Board and batten adds clean lines, breaks up bare walls, and complements many styles of modern homes, and these days it’s de…
Hi, it’s me! Late to the soiree again (Nester’s Home Goals party), but for good reason! I spent all yesterday behind one of these: I’m still an amateur in front of a camera, but so grateful for the patient and encouraging crew. It was nerve-wracking, thrilling, and educational all at the same time. …
“Oh there’s no place like home for the holidays . . .” Are you humming all of those tunes these days? We are! We’re also getting the house ready to welcome (gulp, 70 to 80) guests for our annual Christmas party next weekend. Thankfully, all the inside decorating is done! Nester is hosting her…
