It’s garage sale season which means that this is an amazing time to find furniture that has good bones but just needs a face lift. Now, how would you like it if I told you that it’s possible to transform that ugly chair (with an upholstered seat) into a beauty in 2 hours or less?…
DIY Gift Card Holder + Let Write A Note Challenge
I don’t know if you follow Melanie over at It Happens In A Blink but she has an amazing blog that focuses on projects that you can complete “in a blink”. This concept came about because she has 4 children. Her family consists of 1 daughter and (are you sitting down?) 3 triplet boys! Wow, she really…
18 Spice Storage Ideas
One of the things I absolutely LOVE about the internet is how easy it is to find solutions and answers to your problems and questions. However, it’s not just typing in your question into a search engine anymore. Nope, there are some amazing social media platforms dedicated to certain areas of interest. When I am…

Well, did you know that it is super easy to make your own nut butters at home? I’ve previously shared how I make Chocolate Almond Butter but today I’m going…
A CD/DVD Tower to a Yarn Stash Cabinet (#ChalkyFinish)
I received Chalky Finish Paint & Creme Wax from DecoArt for this post. Are you a garage sale or Goodwill groupie? Do you love looking for a bargain and in the process look at an old, discarded piece and see it’s potential once you give it a “face lift”? I must admit, that I am…
5 Fun Kid Activities & The Project Stash Link Party
Wow, I can’t believe it’s Hump Day. Whenever there is a Monday holiday, it really messes up my “day of the week” mind. Are you the same way? Since Monday was Labor Day, all the kiddos are back in school. Although they have homework and other “obligations” that doesn’t mean that there is no longer…
DIY Strawberry Vodka
I must admit, I have a love-hate relationship with this time of year. What do I love? The amazing fresh produce available, the second chance at fresh strawberries (the fall crop), the beautiful weather, and the marching band season, just to name a few. What don’t I like? The shorter days, the crazy school schedule,…

What is one of your all time favorite “after school” memories? Mine has to be coming home to a house filled with the heavenly aroma of freshly baked cookies. I always thought my mom was magical because it seemed as though as soon as I walked into the kitchen, she would be pulling out a…
