Happy 2018! I can’t believe it is already a new year. I feel like 2017 whizzed by! One of my favorite things to do at the end of the year is to look back at all the projects I have done. It is kind of like looking at a to-do list that is all checked […]
Cabinet Dollhouse
This post really should be called Finishing the Handmade Christmas Gift in the Nick Of Time. This project took way longer than it should have. I may have gotten a little carried away and kept adding things to my list of things to make. You see, my Minwax post this month was to make a […]
New Cabinets Doors!
This post was sponsored by CabinetNow but all ideas and opinions are my own :) When we moved into our home the orange-y cabinets were not my favorite. I painted them an off white and that helped. I did not love the style of the doors but I lived with it because getting all new […]
Favorite Things {2017 Edition}
Some of these links are affiliate links. This is one of my favorite posts to write! I like looking back and seeing what my fun finds were that year. I also love to hop around and read other blogger’s favorite things. I had quite a few things but I narrowed it down to my top […]
Easy DIY Terrarium Lamp
If you know me even just a little bit, you know I LOVE plants and terrariums. I have had this idea in my mind for a long time but I have never gotten around to doing it. When I Like That Lamp reached out to me, I knew this was the perfect time to implement […]
Round Sliding Bathroom Mirror
I shared my bathroom reveal this week. Thank you for all the kind comments on the post and on social media. I have been enjoying leaving the door open instead of feeling like I had to keep the door close to hide its ugliness. There is one more thing I have yet to share about […]
Blue and White Bathroom Makeover
FINALLY! That was the first thing that came to mind when I went to write this post. My bathroom has actually been done for awhile and I am not sure why I kept hesitating to do the photo shoot. Maybe I just wanted to live with it for a bit and make sure everything was […]
DIY Floating Bathroom Shelves
YOU GUYS!!! I finally have a bathroom update! Actually, I just finished the whole bathroom after waiting, and waiting for the last thing to arrive. That is a story in and of itself, but the important thing is, it is done! Today I am sharing how I built these DIY floating bathroom shelves above the […]
Easy DIY Outdoor Chairs
We are lucky enough to have a nice fire pit in the backyard. Having four boys who love all things outdoors, we use it all the time. Up until now, we have lugged out the dining room chairs every time we use the fire pit. I finally broke down and decided that outdoor chairs needed […]
Walk-In Closet Luxury Makeover!
It is always fun for me to do a room transformation for someone else especially when that someone is so deserving. Remember the time I did the kitchen makeover for my sister? She had gone through some hard times and found herself a single mother who rented out her upstairs to make ends meet. She and […]
Planter Box Fence
I am so stinkin’ excited to share this backyard project with you! It has been weeks in the making and I am thrilled with how it turned out. When Thompson’s WaterSeal asked if I had any big outdoor projects we could work on together, I knew this planter box fence was it. I dreamed up […]
DIY Modern Planter Box
Sometimes when I have a big project that is starting to feel overwhelming I like to stop it for a bit and work on a smaller project. I think I just need to FINISH something. When the project or room I am working on seems like it will never be done, it is nice to […]
Glass Light Shade Vase: Three Ways!
When I finished the bathroom in the basement, we couldn’t do recessed lights because of all the pipes and such in the ceiling. I had to find light that didn’t hang down very far from the ceiling since the ceiling is lower in the basement than upstairs and I have a tall husband. I have […]
15 Easy To Care For Houseplants
I hear it all the time in person and in comments online. A lot of you do not feel confident in having houseplants and swear you have a black thumb. I am here to tell you that there is at least one plant out there that you can keep alive which is why I am sharing […]
Closet Makeover!
Sorry for the radio silence this past week or so. February is kind of a crazy month for us because we have a lot of birthdays. My Saturdays have been spent doing other things rather than DIYing. But here and there I have been working on a project that I have been putting off for a […]
These are a few of my favorite things…. 2016 Edition!
This post contains affiliate links. I had already written my “Favorite Things” post, like I do every year, when my cute friend Sarah asked if I wanted to be a part of a blog hop with other bloggers all sharing their favorite things too. Reading other blogger’s posts is so fun because I discover new […]
DIY Concrete Vase
I have only done a few projects with concrete but I am starting to see why some have such a fascination with it. It is a fun new medium for me and you may see more projects using it in the future! Things made from concrete tend to be viewed as modern or even masculine […]
Wood Bead Planter
I spent the weekend enjoying the most amazing weather. October in Utah is perfection…..or at least it can be when mother nature is nice :) I also spent the weekend doing a little DIY project that you are going to LOVE! I drew a sketch of this project months and months ago but it kept […]
Easy DIY Bench
Remember the bench I made for the little girl’s makeover? I had a hard time handing it over because I fell in love with it. I finally got around to making one for myself and I have photos to share of the process! I have partnered with Minwax to bring you the tutorial. […]
How To Make A Tribal Pillow
Back when I made the indigo mud cloth pillow, I saw these black and white tribal pillows and also fell in love with them. I have been meaning to make this pillow for awhile now but I got busy doing a few room makeovers for friends and summer break has kind of kicked my trash. It […]
