Gabrielle was so excited with her Teen Girl’s Bedroom Makeover that she couldn’t wait to decorate it for Christmas.

These DIY Wood Christmas Stockings are so fun and easy to make! When I started decorating for Christmas this year, I really wanted to remove most of the decor we normally have and rearrange some things and start with a fresh, blank slate.

This DIY Christmas Countdown is another easy project made from an old, wood ironing board. If you have been here for some time, you know that I love picking up old, wood ironing boards because you can do so many things with them.

I want to thank Zibra Paint for partnering with me on this French Provincial Dresser Makeover . I have said this over and over again, but most of the time when I step into a thrift store, I don’t plan on finding anything worthwhile. With that said, I continually go because I have obviously found so many amazing things inside thrift stores. Furniture is one of those things that I find only once in a while. There aren’t many times I find pieces that are worth rescuing so imagine my surprise when I walked into the thrift store on this… Read More
