Latest project....

Ok, this one is tricky... so this cabinet is a period piece from the 50's-60's art-deco.. and as you can see it's damaged at the top, but the woodworking is really nice in the middle. Stay tuned for what I come up with. Suggestions? Here it is:

Yard sale find! Mini dresser

Check out this mini dresser I bought over the weekend for $15. It needed a little work...

Before:




And here's the process of making it my own:




And here it is done after new knobs (courtesy Target) and some light distressing....

why I love Craigslist

Because I got this cabinet/bookcase for $45. Isn't it great?

new printer!

Oh I'm so happy.. I convinced my husband to get me a fancy printer and I've been going nuts printing cards, tags, etc. It's so fun!!!!! Check out what I've done so far.

Inspired by small spaces

There is a great blog I follow... (www.ohdeedoh.com) that I just love with great modern ideas on how to use the most of your space. I was inspired by this picture. Simon's room is small and therefore has very little space for a bookcase.. and it would be yet another piece of clunky furniture. Here's the picture that inspired my redo:




Here are before and after shots of his room. Enjoy! (I'm pretty proud of myself as I used a level and got these perfect all by myself without my husband looking over my shoulder...)

Nursery is done!

Finally got the nursery done for new baby... enjoy! Decals from etsy....

It's been a really long time since I posted anything and for that, I apologize. I decided this week to get a jump start on my son's 2nd bday party. I know it's months away, but with a new baby coming, I thought 'why not.' Also, it was a fun distration from the hum-drum around here... He's obsessed with Yo Gabba Gabba, so I decided to make mini Muno pillows as favors. I also made the goodie bags. Take a look! I made 8 of everything.
