Accent Cabinet Makeover
I had more than a few doubts when I took on this Accent Cabinet Makeover. But now that it’s been structurally reinforced, re-painted, and dolled up, I have to admit, it turned out better than I expected. This poor cabinet was pretty much on its last leg when a friend brought it to me and […]
Woodsy Hexagon Wreath
I’m in love with my Woodsy Hexagon Wreath. It’s perfect in its simplicity, and can easily be decorated for any season by simply changing up the ribbon and greenery. Best of all, there’s no other one like it anywhere. The idea for it came when I began noticing hexagons in all sorts of design elements, […]
Crafty Christmas
Have yourself a very Crafty Christmas! I certainly am. For the last couple of months I’ve been up to my eyeballs in building and painting decorations for a candy-themed Christmas party. (Which explains why I haven’t posted any blogs in a while.) Now that I’m finally finished, I’m free to move on to other projects, […]

And, I’m not saying that because of how darling this louvered door now showcases jewelry, and how the hand-painted embellishments add a little sweetness. I say that because of what the name […]
Craft Caddy
If you love crafting as much as I do, then this Craft Caddy is the ultimate DIY project to help organize your work station and inspire you to create even more. You can make it out of any number of things. It just so happens, I was given an old book shelf.
Miniature Mouse in a Tin House
This Miniature Mouse in a Tin House was not only fun to make, it has my imagination spinning like it did when I was a child. I have ALWAYS loved mice. When I was a kid, I used to sit in my Dad’s pick up truck and stare at the vent near the passenger side floorboard, […]
