DIY Candle Holders
Make a gorgeous vignette of candle holders for next-to-nothing by repurposing old furniture legs. Remember the coffee table I was working on the other day? Well, project two of my repurposing/upcycling adventure was to take the legs from the table and make them into these beautiful, rustic candle holders. Did I mention that these were […]
My FREE Family Command Centre
You don’t have to spend mucho-buckos to create a family command centre, in fact, our family command centre came in at a whopping $0! Here’s how you can do it too! I was futzing in the garage the other day and debating whether to refinish this free coffee table that a friend had dropped off. […]
Classic Kids Wagon

Before & After – Lego Table
This Lego table / Lego storage project took a long time. Normally, I would have whipped out a nightstand in a day or two, but this one was well over a week – mostly because I couldn’t decide what I wanted to do with it. This is the crappy nightstand that I started with: Awful. […]
Lingerie chest makeover
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 top! Missing knobs, chipped drawers – and what you can’t see inside, is that the drawer bottoms are […]
