DIY Bicycle Wreath

How beautiful is this DIY Bicycle Wreath!!! This wheel was stashed in my hoarders garage that I have been cleaning out and organizing for the last week, it’s been pretty daunting for the most part but, every once in a while I would find a treasure in my chaotic clutter. Like, this amazing vintage bicycle wheel.

I know what your thinking, a bicycle wheel is that really a treasure? Well, I would absolutely say YES! I found this bicycle wheel at a random vintage shop that caught my eye while driving. Can we say U-Turn…I knew as soon as I saw it what I wanted to do with it. Of course I have big plans for where this guy is going to end up, which is going to turn into a whole other giant project. So, for now I am going to share with you my simple and easy DIY Bicycle Wreath tutorial.

On the Move Again – Home Search Tips

While Jessie has been busy slaving away on her beautiful One Room Challenge (ORC) Workspace (check out it out here), things over here have been getting very interesting. It looks like the Army has finally given us the official word that our family is on the move yet again this summer to the great state of Texas. This is, according to my husband, the last move. We will see how that goes…tune back in about 2 years from now to see if this is true!!

Anyways, with a big move comes lots and lots of logistical stuff that must be taken care of. First up on our long list, a big one, is a home search. Yes, we are going to be homeowners again. So exciting and a little bit daunting…but it will be nice to have our own space again after renting for the last 2 years and the 3 before that in a tiny German apartment.

DIY Hanging Hoop Planters

So, I just finished up with the ORC and my Big Reveal, which you can see here if you missed it! There were so many DIY’s in the room that I didn’t get a chance to talk about (I needed to save a few surprises for the final look.) One of my favorite things that I created right at the end, that I absolutely loved was my DIY Hanging Hoop Planter. I made two, both in different sizes. One with a real plant inside, we’ll see how that works out for me and one with a faux succulent…which are always a favorite. Believe it or not I can actually even kill a succulent…I know…I am very talented at so many things! 😉 Both planters took less than 1 hour. Maybe even shorter, but I’ll say an hour including all the time it took me to prepare all of my supplies. So if you would love your own planter here is how. Super easy.

One Room Challenge – Final Reveal – DIYers Dream Workspace

Super, SUPER excited that today is the day I finally get to share with you the BIG reveal for my Modern DIYers Workspace. I  am not going to lie the last 6 weeks has not been easy and I literally worked up until the last day finishing up this space. 6 week sounds so long but when reality hits and the projects start the time just flies right by. So…here it is…A fresh look on a DIYers Workspace. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. It’s functional, chic, modern, and colorful…all the good stuff packed into one space and guess what…It’s all mine. I have the most beautiful space to work in, a place where creativity can absolutely thrive.
