For Christmas this past year I decided I wanted to make signs for my dear friend Stephanie based on some things I had seen her Pin on Pinterest . One of which were these adorable Longitude and Latitude signs. I commissioned the help of my favorite vinyl guy (Matt) and asked him if he could help […]
Vintage Chair Re-Do; {It’s New Again!}
I love a good Craig’s List find, while picking up a dresser the owner asked if we were interested in any other furniture. Long story short after two trips we ended up buying 2 chairs, 2 stools, and the dresser. One of the chairs was this lovely green and plaid number screaming to be made […]
Just Hangin’ Around; {Up-cycled Chandelier }
Matt and I decided a cost effective way to replace two very blah chandeliers in our house was to buy used ones and Up-Cycle them.

Valentines Day is a little less than a month away, but I caught the ‘Love Bug’ around January 2nd, that was the day after we took down Christmas and packed it away in the attic for the next 11 months. Talk about bummed out, Christmas is so much fun for my husband and I our […]
