Good Monday morning, friends! What a difference a week makes -- this time last week we were under a tropical storm warning and the ATL was pretty much shut down. While there were tons of power outages here, we were spared. Things are pretty much back to normal around here, but not so for our friends in Texas and Florida. I was so blessed last week as we wrapped up our Diaper Drive at Legacy. My sweet families answered the call and we … [Read more...]
Weekend Project: Get Holiday-Ready
November 19, 2016 by · Leave a Comment
I don't usually post on Saturdays, but I thought this would be helpful for the onset of the holiday week. I feel like we've either been out-of-town or hosting guests the last several weekends (not entirely true but it feels that way!). And this year, I managed to be a bit proactive as far as getting my home ready for the holidays. #wondersnevercease So with Thanksgiving looming less than a week away, I thought I share a few quick things I did … [Read more...]

It's that time of year -- that May Madness! We've been on a string of graduation parties and getting the house prepped for our own celebration later today and tomorrow.

And along with that comes all those other graduation announcements... and before you know it … [Read more...]

April 13, 2016 by · 3 Comments
Hello, friends ~ I didn't mean to be gone so long! The last couple of weeks have been doozies around here, so I've fallen behind on the old blog. But I've missed you and so I'm back. :) Today I'm sharing a recent paint project I completed and popped into my booth. Remember this little desk/dressing table I was working on a while ago? She was painted just a creamy white, but I decided to up her fun factor with some Farmhouse Paint in … [Read more...]

Hello, friends! I didn't mean to be MIA all week, but I've had some busy days following my beach getaway weekend, and my Lenten discipline of staying offline in the evenings has me running behind a bit. :) I'll discuss more about that next week, but today I wanted to share a super easy DIY for Easter. You probably have everything you need for this right at home! I simply gathered some twigs from my yard, pulled out my garden snips and … [Read more...]

Hi there, gang... another busy week, of course and I know we're all feeling that slide toward the holidays beginning! I, for one, am finding myself READY to embrace all the joy the holidays bring!

New Furniture Project: Two Tone Buffet-Secretary
August 10, 2015 by · Leave a Comment
Monday again? My weekend just flew by, but it was a good one -- a little poolside time, finishing a good book, furniture painting, movie night with my girl, and last night -- Steely Dan, y'all! It was about 100 degrees outside for the concert, but those guys can still groove! What fun and now it's striving to find some routine and a massive to-do list. :) I'm finally getting around to sharing a furniture makeover I did a couple of weeks … [Read more...]

Happy Wednesday, y'all! First of all, thank you so much for the sweet comments on Part 1 of the Legacy story...

A couple of weeks ago I gave … [Read more...]
Before & After: Farmhouse Paint Dresser Makeover
January 23, 2015 by · 5 Comments
Woo hoo! It only took me three weeks to finish a project for 2015, but I have to say this was a good one and something of a test drive at the same time. If you follow me on Instagram, you saw this last weekend -- another driveway sanding session. (My neighbors love me -- and they bring me their cast off furniture pieces when they see me out!). That sweet little solid wood 6 drawer dresser was an unexpected find last November. I was in … [Read more...]
