Greetings all, perhaps you’ve heard – the Christmas Ideas issue by Better Homes & Gardens has finally hit newsstands, and yours truly is inside!

I can’t recall where or when I saw a bottle cutting kit, but I spied it somewhere a few months ago and thought it was completely cool. Around the same time, I saw a set of tumblers in a local shop made from the bottoms of wine bottles and thought they were a great way…
Oh hello y’all, how are things? I’m feeling pretty good today having finally finished the laundry room over at our adopted Alma House. For those who don’t know, earlier this year, the hubs and I decided to adopt a house in partnership with our local COTS (Committee on the Shelterless). The Alma Project began as…
Greetings all, so happy to be featuring some very inspirational posts and projects today! I took a chance when I started this ‘Best of the Blogosphere’ series many months ago, and I have to say looking back I’m so glad I did. There is so much ingenuity and creativity out there that and I love…

G’day all, hope you had a relaxing weekend! We just got back from a four day getaway to Las Vegas where we hung out with the folks, explored some of the desert, and spent a lot of down time in the pool, bliss! We had such a blast but I am exhausted and already soooo behind. Funny how you need…
I’ve mentioned before, we have a little guest studio above our garage that we’ve rented out in the past, but mostly use for guests, especially this time of year. A few months ago I refinished the kitchen cabinets, and last weekend I thought it time to refinish the old Pottery Barn pedestal table that sits…
