How’s your week going? It’s been a productive week for us which is always fun. Have you guys been watching the Olympics? I normally go to bed pretty early but the events have all been really good. The sheer determination these athletes have after all the years of training is super impressive. Here are a few things we’re loving from around the web this week…
So school has been in session for about a week now, how are you guys holding up? Back to school is a great time to reassess goals and settle into positive habits. After the bed is made and the room has been tidied I like to spritz a room freshener before heading out the door. I’ve tried a few different scents but this one is a favorite. Here’s what you’ll need to make a Lemongrass and Eucalyptus freshener of your own…
I spent a good portion of last Friday, trying to pull together pieces for my booth space. Mostly random items and bits of inventory I’ve picked up over several shopping trips. Styling a booth is kind of like styling your home. It takes multiple pieces that all fit within the same vision in order to pull “the look” off. Thankfully, everything I found at the estate sale fit together with things I’ve been holding onto like this mirror. Here’s a look at the details of our Annie Sloan Chalk Paint Vintage Mirror Frame Makeover…
As I mentioned yesterday, this entire weekend was filled with lots of running around for my other job as a vendor at The Pickers Market.

Here’s a look at revitalizing a rattan chair and a DIY furniture polish recipe….
If you follow on Instagram you probably already know we got an early start on Saturday and headed to an estate sale. I was desperately low on furniture for the booth when I found a media cabinet and a few other things. The cabinet was in good condition, solid and stained a strange orange. Thankfully, we were able to give this media cabinet a makeover with GF Snow White. Here’s a look at how all of the details came together…
I was on the phone with one of my sisters the other day talking about getting the littles ready for school. There was one thing in particular she said that caught my attention. Inspired by our conversation about the need to monogram all the things, I decided to find a way to personalize a pair of pillowcases with chalk paint. Here’s what you’ll need in case you want to make a set of your own…
Almost every morning I look forward to an hour filled with devotions, catching up on my favorite blogs, quiet time and a steaming cup of hot coffee. It feels like such a luxury. With the school year about to get in full swing I was looking for a fun way to jazz up our coffee station and these DIY Sharpie Mugs Inspired by the South fit the bill perfectly. Here’s a look at how you can personalize a few coffee mugs of your own…
We’re always looking for healthy recipes that are quick and can be made ahead of time. This recipe for rise and shine muffins is a fantastic mix of carrots, zucchini, apples and walnuts. They’re definitely moist and aren’t overly sweet. These muffins are an easy grab and go option for busy mornings. Here’s what you’ll need to make some Rise and Shine Muffins of your own…
Any time I see a wooden tray in good condition at a thrift store, estate sale or charity shop, I buy it immediately. We use trays ALL the time. They’re lightweight, easy to clean and the handles make using it for multiple serving options totally fantastic. Here’s how we created a DIY Tea Stain for a Simple Tray Makeover…
I don’t know about you guys but it’s definitely starting to feel like the dog days of summer. As we spend these last few days and weeks soaking up all that the season has to offer, I thought I would share an easy summer inspired tablescape with you today….
