The Pom-Pom Pillow

POM-POMS! These fluff balls are AMAZING and are so easy to make. I'd have to say that they also pair quite nicely with flamingos! If you have been making yarn pom-poms the old-school way (with a fork), then you need to try the Clover pom-pom maker. It is a game changer!

Pre-warning to my friends with upcoming birthdays, you may be receiving a pom-pom pillow. I've been pumping these things out like... Continue reading

The Clay Coaster

These marbleized coasters are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Who ever thought clay could look this good? I was inspired by Sarah Johnson to make these, and I am absolutely in love with the way that they turned out. I'd have to say, my kindergarten clay modeling skills have come a long way and I bet yours have too! Details on how I made these beauties are below.

Supplies:
Sculpey oven-bake clay (pick an assortment... Continue reading

The Milk Glass Effect


I am so excited to share this post with everyone! This is by far one of my favorite projects to date. I have always been a lover of antique milk glass and I figured out a way to replicate the 3-dimensional aspect with liquid glass. The best part about this DIY, on top of it looking like something you picked up at Homegoods, is that the entire project is under $10. 
Supplies: 
  • Liquid glass
  • Rubbing...

The Mossy Monogram

Who doesn't love monogram letters? You can use them to personalize any space, whether it be a window sill in your kitchen or a shelf in your office. I was recently wandering through Michael's searching for inspiration and stumbled across these wooden lettersfrom the new Make Market line. Because they had raised edges with a rustic flare, I decided that they needed to be filled with moss. I...

Pair Your Oysters with Pearls

 

I don’t know about you, but I am an oyster fanatic! My mom and I were recently out at dinner and, per usual, I ordered a dozen oysters. The wine was flowing and, oddly enough, we got to talking about oyster crafts. We decided that the shells were beautiful and had the potential to be repurposed as a jewelry dish or candle holder. And so, that is exactly what I set out to do. Now to the important... Continue reading

Cabin Fever


I have a tray obsession and it is kind of a problem. They are living under my bed, on top of my refrigerator and in my cabinets.  I was recently walking through Target and spotted this Tree Bark Server.  I decided that it had to be made into a tray, as if I need another one.

If you know someone that likes to host, or you want to say thank you to your neighbors that always let you drink their wine... Continue reading

Diamond in the Rough

Diamond in the Rough




It’s truly amazing how a little paint and new hardware can bring an antique back to life! This was a side table that I scored for free from a friend. Check your neighbor’s curb on trash day or visit a flea market on the weekend. You will be sure to find a diamond in the rough for next to nothing.

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE painting with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. There is no priming, no sanding,... Continue reading
