Sliding Barn Door: Build It

I’ve wanted a sliding barn door for the bathroom in our bedroom since, oh I don’t know….forever. So for my birthday, Jon surprised me with the hardware to DIY our own sliding barn door.  Seriously!? He knows me so well.  Not many girls will get this giddy over hardware for a birthday present. I just …

Ikea Rast Hack: DIY Farmhouse End Table Makeover (Part 2)

If you missed the first part, check it out here. I’m back with the finished end tables!  I finished these babies last week and they are working out great.  WELL worth the mere $35 a piece they cost. Especially since I sold our old, impractical, ugly set that I didn’t even like for $200…I actually …

Ikea Rast Hack: DIY Farmhouse End Table Makeover (Part 1)

In this tutorial, I will take a simple Ikea Rast chest of drawers and show you how to completely transform them to look like a custom piece of furniture for your bedroom.

DIY Doormat Part Deux

We’re at it again. This time to work on a Christmas present for Annabanana’s folks.  Hey, better late than never, right? She wanted to make them a doormat that I posted about here. Plus one for herself.  We made a few little changes like changing the width to 32″ and used 11 boards (instead of 23″ …

Washer/Dryer Pedestal

  I would like to introduce you to Anna, whom I affectionately call Annabanana.  But you can call her Nanner just like everyone else. Nanner is awesome for many reasons.  Besides being one of the most giving people I’ve ever met, she’s fun. And we are strangely alike in soooo many ways.  Seriously…she’s a sister …

Fall Baby Shower

I recently co-hosted a baby shower for a friend that will be having a little girl, Avery.  We threw the shower in October, so we decided on a pumpkin theme with orange and pink colors with the tag line “A little pumpkin is on the way!”  We luckily had a seasoned veteran in the baby …

Aged Frenchy Mirror

I’ve had this mirror sitting around for awhile. I got it when I was a freshman in college and it’s been with me ever since!  It’s been in a closet for too long…I decided something fun needs to be done with it. So I went to Home Depot and bought about 8 feet of this …

DIY Doormat

While I was recently perusing Pinterest (what else?) I found this picture of this doormat – via I love it. So I set out to make my own with only a few little changes. I bought 2 1×2 boards and divided the length by 4 so that I didn’t have any scraps.  It came out to 23″.  …
