DIY Frame Project

 

Upcycling...yay! My favorite thing!

Ok, here is a quick diy project to do with all the old frames laying around.

I collected a bunch of wooded frames from thrift stores and laid them out in groupings I thought went well together.

Discarded the glass, painted the frames, inserted some old fabric to stencil, stamp or paint on and then screwed them to a thin piece of wood on the back...and there you have it.

A simple project that can match any decor!

BU2ful Farmhouse Market...SUCCESS

Thank you everyone who attended the BU2ful Farmhouse Spring Market!  We had a great time and met a ton of super cute, fun people with minds like ours. We were nervous to host our first market but after the first rush our nerves were settled and then I looked at the clock and realized it wasn't even 9:00 (opening time)! As the day went on, Elaine and I were overwhelmed with people asking us if we were going to have the market again, well...yes we are, with more advertising and more treasures. Here are a few pics that I had to take with my phone, forgot the camera...sorry. 

Daddy's Girl

Growing up, I never really considered myself to be a "daddy's girl," but, I was always a serious tomboy. I had older brothers who went to work with him everyday from sunrise to sunset and I always thought to myself "they are going to be exactly like him." Well guess what, I am proud to say that I am exactly like him, we are junkers at heart.  It drives my brothers nuts the stuff he has stock piled everywhere and can't get rid of.  The other night he called me to say he was cleaning up a bit and saved a few things for me I might like.  To others this might be junk, garbage, crap, or what have you, but to me and my dad, these are treasures!

Here's a peek at a few of the items he gave me and an "after" of one of the watering cans in my yard.  Thanks Dad,  I Love You!!!

Heads Up!

This side table is a fun little yard sale purchase with a makeover.  The top had a perfect lip on it that would hold something well, so I decided to go with pennies. Three coats of different colored paint, (teal, chocolate and tan) some light sanding, a little new hardware and boom, there you have it.  Now all I need to do is find a mate to make tails. 

Special Orders

Love doing special orders for all my buddies.  Here is a barn wood sign for my soon-to-be teacher friend and a large framed black board for my Aunt Lori.  She had this amazing wood frame and asked if I could turn it into a black board.  The framed cutout is so she can show off an adorable picture of her little dog, Jessie.
