Okay, if you have been around my Instagram at all lately, then you already know that I was working in my bedroom for a couple of months, giving it a bit of a Facelift, actually just adding in all the pretty things. Last fall I painted my bedroom white, though I still have that gray…
I have this round oak table, that we picked up about three summers ago for $50. it had seen some better days, I think maybe it spent the last 10 years or so of its life stored in a basement or garage, it was rough. I painted the table white awhile back with chalk paint,…
This is a story about a girl who had only ever shopped retail, turned Antique Furniture collector. There was a day about thirty years ago, that everything I owned came from the Department Store, its all I knew. If you needed furniture, you went to the furniture store, right? Well little did I know, about…
Hello sweet friends, today I want to talk a little about a recent stop at one of the many Antique stores we love, what I found, and what I did to it. The funny thing is, what drew me to this piece, was that it looked like half of a table. It was sitting sideways…

I had a cabinet sitting in front of this wall for 20 years, we called it the Spice Cabinet, because, you guessed it, it was filled with spices. I would constantly bump into it with my upper arm and end up with a bruise. We also have such a large collection of platters that they were all…
Just stopping in quickly to share this update in my dining room. If you are like me my home is constantly evolving. I kind of feel my way through it slowly. Anyway….. A few years back I painted the living and dining grey including the ceilings. Without realizing it I picked a gray with a…
Just popping in quick to share a mini project. I have tried to add a gallery wall to my bedroom several times and it just never works out. I am not sure if I just stink at Gallery Wall building or what. But I am giving another shot on this tiny triangle wall going up…
