Do you guys remember last year when wood slices were “it?” There were gorgeous wood slice projects all over the internet. They were everywhere! I was lucky enough to find this lazy susan when I was giving a woodlands themed party last year. We used it off and on when entertaining for a few months but the orange tint/tannin always bothered me. Here’s a look at how we gave an easy update for an 80s style lazy susan that’s perfect for summer entertaining.
Remember last week when I couldn’t decide if I should add a gray wash to the new barstools in the office? Even after a few days of giving the look of the warmer wood a chance I kept thinking about giving them a gray wash. So, this past weekend I finally took the plunge and while I was giving the barstools a weathered makeover I decided to give the office chair a DIY chalk-like painted makeover too. Here’s a look at all of the details…
Remember last week when I said, week 3 was the hardest week of the One Room Challenge? Well, I was wrong…so, so, so wrong. Week 4 is definitely the hardest. Here’s a sneak peek at the progress we’ve made this week…
Over the years, we’ve learned what styles work best in this little cottage and slowly room by room things are starting to take shape. A few years ago, a fellow blogger recommended a book about decorating with white. I swear it was like a light went off and that one book changed everything. Here’s a peek at what’s on my nightstand…
We’re gearing up for the 53rd Annual Isle of Eight Flags Shrimp Festival in Fernandina Beach this weekend so I thought I would share an update on my space at The Pickers Market
After organizing my way through most of January, enjoying a little down time in February, March found us taking on more projects than we were ready for. Thankfully, we rallied and got it all done. Here’s what we accomplished this month as we say Goodbye March, Hello, April…
We’ve been having a lot of fun at The Pickers Market lately. So many of the vendors are bringing in awesome Spring finds and it’s always a blast to see what people are finding. Last week one of the vendors that runs Mine Hill Trading Co helped me rearrange some things in my space. Here’s…
Do you guys ever have those random moments where things just hit you right in the gut? For the past month I’ve been reading the faith based book, “The Best Yes” by Lysa Terkeurst. The entire book is so good. It’s helped me stay focused on what’s really important when I feel crazed and it’s on my nightstand this month.
Can you guys believe we’re almost into March? You know what that means, Spring is on the way! It’s been amazing weather in Florida over the past few weeks. We’ve spent more time outdoors during the day and snuggling up to watch a movies at night. It feels like the best of both worlds. Here are a few other things we’re celebrating as we say Goodbye February, Hello March…
You would have to go all the way back to this post in late October to see my latest finds from the treasure trail. I’ve been trying SO hard to use the things I have stockpiled before adding to my inventory closet. But last month, I got a really sweet birthday surprise, which allowed me the chance to hit the roads hot again. If last year was the Year of the Goat, this year should have been called The Year of Ironstone. Here’s a look at my latest finds from the treasure trail…
I’ve loved to read books and magazines for as long as I can remember. While we were in the mountains over the holidays I decided I was going to give myself the gift of carving out intentional time in my schedule each week to enjoy books again. This is also the same time I realized we were all reading similar books on Instagram and the monthly series, What’s on my Nightstand was born. This month the book, The Year of Cozy is on my nightstand and it’s so good.
Can you guys believe we’re almost to the end of January? Me either! The older I get the more I realize, time is moving at warp speed.
