How were your Holidays?
Did you take time to enjoy the fruits of your labour?
My Christmas was wonderful.
Actually, I caught a pretty decent cold and have been sick for about a week now – but sometimes being sick is exactly what you need in order to slow down, snuggle in and relax.
I devoured a book cuddled under blankets with hot tea by my side. Hubby cooked the Holiday meal and the kids (who had just gotten over the cold) were happy […]
I have a pin that drives a lot of traffic from my Pinterest board to my blog – and the pin itself isn’t even mine? It was something I put in an article a few months ago “Styling Your Entryway” and this is the pin that has been going crazy:
This entryway table / sofa table was made by Modern Refinement on Etsy and is […]
I’m frustrated.
Frustrated and pissed off.
I’m also PMSing, so perhaps that’s the real issue, but regardless my entryway is making me NUTS!
First off, I’m not keen on the colour – it’s time is up, but I’m not brave enough to attempt to paint a two storey hallway with stairs – so I have to live with it (for now).
Down the line though, it’s getting covered up, be it with some peel and stick wallpaper – Simple Shapes or with a […]
Tired of cleaning posts?
Me too.
if you think it’s redundant to read them – try having to DO them all. lol
I needed a reward for my clean grills and windows – time to refinish something!
Well, I finished up cabinetmaking school last week and am officially a graduate!
Which is interesting seeing as I never made a single kitchen cabinet from start to finish?
I think the program should have been called furniture making, since that’s […]
I love this so freaking much!
I don’t know what to tell you – I’m a genius!!
Okay, an accidental genius, but I’m still taking it because (for once) my idea turned out spectacularly!
See this dresser:
A few years ago I posted about a simple solution for storing and charging your iPad, iPod, iPhone, idontcare electronics. It was a wood magazine rack that I tipped on it’s back and then drilled holes through the bottom for cords to feed through.
It was great!
A bit big and bulky, and it was […]
This is a tiny little dresser – about 18″ wide and only about 12″ deep. I guess it would be called a lingerie dresser or lingerie chest?
A “disaster dresser” to begin with.
Look at the destroyed […]
If you’re looking to add some new pieces to your current decor, but don’t have the budget for big-box stores, make your own with these 10 DIY furniture projects for beginners.
My formal carpentry training consists of wood shop in grades 7 and 8 – and while that is two years of pretty intensive hands-on experience (amounting to about 1 hour per week), I’d hardly say it puts me in anything more than a beginner class when it comes to building.
One […]
