A couple of weeks ago, I took advantage of a "bye" weekend and set up shop in my driveway to get a few new pieces painted for my booth. It was a long day, but a productive one! I scored this table at an outdoor flea market and new she had Annie Sloan Old White written all over her! One of these days, I'll get better at doing the "money shots" for these pieces! This Goodwill find was languishing in my garage... but I had … [Read more...]

October 8, 2012 by · 7 Comments
Whew, are we reeling from a fun NYC weekend! We had amazing weather for most of it, and even the chilly drizzle on Sunday didn't dampen our fun. I'll be sharing some pics later this week, but here' s sneak peek at one of our outings... Before I left, I did a quick fall update to our front porch. I loved the summer look so much, it took me a while to get excited about changing it for fall, but I think I'm close to a … [Read more...]

Shut The Front Door! {Going Bold}
October 3, 2012 by · 14 Comments
Well, I did it. It's been on my to-do list since last summer. Actually longer than that! I just didn't articulate it until last summer. :-) See how I get around my to-do list being too monstrous? Think about projects, just don't SAY they need to be done. Ha! Anyway, I was stumped on a color. I loved the look of black interior doors...

Boo Y’all {Painted Porch Planter}
September 26, 2012 by · 22 Comments
A few months ago, I scored a set of four painted distressed rectangular planters and I had an idea (or two) mulling around in my head. They're lovely, but I thought how fun it would be to paint a different message on each of them to greet visitors that happen to come to my front door. Last weekend, I decided to tackle one with a fun fall message: Boo Y'all. 'Cuz that's what we say here in Georgia. :) This one is a warm creamy color, … [Read more...]
My Fall Mantel

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend -- the FIRST weekend of fall! I'm feeling it now... cool breezes, the angle of the sun has changed a bit, a handful of leaves beginning to change (and fall). I even picked up a couple of (real) pumpkins at WalMart yesterday! Before I get to my fall mantel, I have to crow a bit about my DIY Mirrored Pumpkin feature over at Crafty Scrappy Happy's Happy Hour Features! Go check it out and check out all the … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Friday
September 21, 2012 by · 4 Comments
What a week. All I can say is T.G.I.F. My Little Crazies at school have been exactly that -- CRAZY. I'm not sure what it is about this group, but my assistant and I have had a hard time reining them in. Makes for some very loooooong days and a lot of evenings of being completely spent and brain-dead. Not good for creative juices! It's pretty clear most of my creativity will have to happen on the weekends this year! This weekend I'm … [Read more...]
