Before the yard sale season started in our area, I was really itching to find some pieces to make over and get my hands dirty with. I get like that every year after being cooped up all winter. So, while eating lunch with Matt one day, we decided to drop in to the local Restore near his office. I love this store, but don’t get to visit it often because it is about 45 minutes away from our home. This dresser was there when we stopped and I have to bring it home and breathe new life into it.

DIY Desk Makeover
This is the story of the ugly duckling desk. When I saw this at a yard sale from a distance, I noticed the legs and the drawer. Those were two great features it had going for it. It wasn’t until I got closer to it and realized this piece was going to need a major DIY desk makeover to make it pretty again. {Affiliate links are used in this post.

Repurposed Bed To Bench Tutorial
This project is a great example of repurposing one furniture piece to make an entirely different one. This Repurposed Bed To Bench Tutorial is going to share how to take the headboard and footboard of a bed and recreate it into a bench. This bench started out as this bed: My mom scored this head-board and foot-board for 50% off at a thrift store. The details on the pieces caught her eye and she just couldn’t pass it up. I am glad she didn’t. The bed did have amazing detail, but it kind of gets lost with the dated finish on it. I… Read More
Baseball Party Favors
Baseball season is in full swing! When my kids were smaller, I remember a lot of people telling me how crazy our schedules would get when our kids got older and were more involved in sports and other activities. I always thought, how bad can it be?? I am finding out now that they weren’t kidding. When I was little, we would play a sport for a few months and it would be over with. Now, kids are playing sports all year round! That is so true with baseball. My son started playing baseball for the first time (besides t-ball when he was… Read More
DIY Lemonade Stand From An Old Cabinet
If you follow me on Instagram, you saw me post about this DIY Lemonade Stand we made for the kiddos. Every spring, I coordinate our neighborhood yard sale. It is a lot of fun when the entire neighborhood participates. It is a great way to get out and talk to everyone after being cooped up in our homes all winter. The past few years, we have included a little bake sale for our kids to run during our sale. THEY LOVE THIS. They are getting to the age that they really understand the value of money and want to find ways to earn their… Read More
