DIY Quikrete Concrete Lamp

posted on : July 5, 2019 posted by : Jessie 0 Comment

Hey guys! Anyone super intimated by the thought of using concrete? I totally get that…I was beyond intimated just a few weeks ago and now it is turning into one of my favorite products to use for DIY-ing! Quikrete Concrete challenged anyone who is attending the Haven Conference (a DIY bloggers convention) to do a project using one bag or less of their concrete for the chance to win a 10,000 dollar sponsorship. If you don’t know it by now…I am always up for a challenge!

DIY Bicycle Wreath

posted on : May 31, 2019 0 Comment

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.

Can you believe it?? Spring is here…and we all survived another Winter, some of us better then others! 😉 So, let’s finally let Spring into our homes. Nothing is better than opening up those windows and letting the fresh air and light into our homes. This year for Spring, I am trying to keep it light and airy in my decor. Lots of neutrals and greenery everywhere!

The Power of the Pillow ~ DIY 10 Minute Pillow Tutorial

posted on : February 27, 2019 0 Comment

Life changing topics on our blog today…Pillow Talk…LOL! So if you haven’t figured it out by now…I am obsessed with pillows and adding them to all decor spaces. If you were to ask me what you could do to update your space quickly and cheaply, my first response would always be pillows. Well maybe, pillows and paint…but that’s a whole other blog post 😉

Do you walk into HomeGoods and see the 500 pillows and just run scared from the sight? So overwhelmed you don’t even have the slightest idea where to start. You think…ugh I’ll just keep those pillows the couch came with, they don’t look that bad. Stop Running!!! Seriously, these comfy little guys can really make or break your space and could be that key element you have been looking for to transform that space that is just ehhh to AMAZING!

You might be running, but I am rubbing my head all over those 500 pillows…talk about bringing Joy, that’s what pillows do for me!! So I thought I would share a few simple tips for how to choose and arrange your throw pillows. Fabric is key, but so is size and arrangement.

Fireplace Update!

posted on : February 20, 2019 0 Comment

Just thought I would pop in this week and share my final look of my fireplace makeover! Do you remember last week when I shared my half finished Shiplap photo? I thought I could bang-out a super quick project in-between getting all the kids off to school. The girls leave around 8:30 and my little guy leaves around 11, so that gives me 2.5 hours. Obviously I must have fallen out of bed that morning and hit my head because I’m not sure what I was thinking.

Does this ever happen to anyone else? Or am I completely alone? I often get an idea in my head of something I should do, even though there are 500 other more important things I should be doing and I just can’t help myself.
