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. […]

I read an article where a person was looking for pantry ideas; her home didn’t have one, and she wanted something she could put in her kitchen, but without a hefty built-in price tag. Her solution ended up being lockers. She retrofitted them with shelves and painted them a bright colour and they were AMAZING! […]
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 […]

I’m so excited to share today’s bookshelf makeover with you! If you’ve followed along you know that I’m in the midst of an office makeover and as part of that makeover I picked up these two “teak” cabinets; I put teak in quotes because that was how they were advertised – but when I went […]

*This is a post I wrote in June 2013 – one of my earlier blog posts. When I moved my site from Blogger to WordPress a lot of my Pinterest links broke, so I’m attempting to update older posts with a few new photos and create new links on Pinterest. If you were with me […]

How was your weekend? We had AMAZING weather here all weekend – which is strange because last week we saw frost in the mornings. This global warming thing is playing havoc with our seasons (but this weekend it was to our advantage). I spent almost every minute of the last three days in my workshop […]
