Beautiful Spring Porch Decor Inspiration
Welcome spring (and guests!) to your home entryway with some beautiful spring porch decor! Guys! It's finally spring! Or I should say the weather is finally like spring! I have had major cabin fever this winter; it was usually always too cold to venture out with a newborn. But hey, at least that cabin fever afforded me a bunch of precious baby snuggles. :) One of our goals this year is to revamp our landscaping and add some color and beautiful spring porch decor to our home. It's pretty boring right now! I have found so much beautiful inspiration that I wanted to share it with you in case you're looking to spruce up your spring porch as well. I'll keep you posted on what we do, but Continue Reading
Outdoor DIY Serving Tray Makeover
My DIY Patio Serving Tray is sponsored by DecoArt. As always, the opinions and ideas are all my own. Who else is itching to spend more time outside?! Here in Ohio we've had a few glimpses of spring-like weather and it has gotten me so excited to hang out on the patio once the weather allows! We love to spend time on the patio eating, relaxing and hanging out with friends and family. We used to haul all of our food and snacks out in several trips so I picked up this big tray at a thrift store to transport our eats more efficiently. But it needed a makeover. Desperately. The finish was peeling on the edges and it needed some color. I decided to paint it in the same colors as Continue Reading
How to Galvanize Metal for an Aged Look
Have you ever wondered how to create the galvanized metal look on a shiny surface? See how easy it is to transform with this 2 step tutorial. I made this Flower Market Bucket last year for the Darice blog and even though it could be considered more of a spring decoration, I didn't have the heart to pack it away because it's so cheery! One of my favorite elements of the bucket is the galvanized look of the metal. It didn't start out that way, however... it started out as a bucket with a stark metal shine which is't my style at all. Isn't it funny though how in order to get a vintage or "lived in" look on a decor piece the price doubles? Not cool. Have you ever wondered how to Continue Reading
Cricut Supply Organization with Martha Stewart
Master your Cricut supply organization game with these easy DIY and convenient storage solutions! This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine. Organization is a hot topic thanks to a little show on Netflix that is sending the masses into a decluttering tailspin. This is an ongoing challenge/goal that I struggle with and have especially wanted to tackle it since having my baby in December. I have less time in my craft room/office than I did before baby and when I have a chunk of time to be productive, the last thing I want to do is waste the precious time looking for something! One specific challenge I have Continue Reading

TV stand styling can be one of the most challenging decor projects! These beautiful TV stand styling ideas turn the TV area into a beautiful decor statement that isn't overtaken by the television! Hi friends, I hope you're having a great week! As you can imagine, there hasn't been much decorating or home improvement going on around here with a new baby. And I'm beginning to think that pregnancy brain permanently effected my creative vision! Here's my latest decorating dilemma... I got this beautiful TV stand from Bellacor last year and it has yet to be styled.
