Vintage Red Painted Furniture


There's something about a splash of red that adds energy 

as well as old fashioned charm to a room. 

Take a look at some examples of red painted furniture
 and I bet you'll agree!

Painted Cross Stitch Wall Mural


I was amazed when I came across this painted cross stitch idea from Dutch
artist Eline Pellinkhof, who recreated a cross stitch -in grandiose style using
a simple grid technique.

Upcycled Christmas Wreaths That You Can Make


The holiday season is quickly approaching and many of us are busy decorating our 
homes for Christmas. This year, why not create your own unique holiday wreath
 from things that you already have around your home? 

To get started, all you need is a wreath base (inexpensive wreath bases can be 
purchased at most dollar stores), a glue gun, and a little creative thinking.

Check out these extraordinary upcycled wreaths created from ordinary household 
objects and maybe you'll be inspired to try your hand at creating one for yourself!

Thrift Store HOT: Upcycled Sweaters!


Want to know what's hot in thrift store shopping right now?
I am going to tell you! 

SWEATERS!
Brrrr winter is right around the corner! Right now is the perfect time to create some cozy 
 accessories for you and your home by taking advantage of the fabulous prices of thrift shop
sweaters. Look in the men's sweater section for cashmere sweaters. These super soft
luxuries work great transformed into pillow covers, accessories, or coordinate a few
 and sew them together into a blanket for a friend!

*Remember my friends: Pay no mind to that spot of ink on the cuff or tiny hole near the 
label. If the rest of the sweater looks great and is what you are looking for, get it. Don't let 
a small flaw hold you back from the perfect sweater if you aren't going to be using that part
of the sweater in your project. Note the flaw to the clerk and they may even give you a discount.
It never hurts to ask, I always do!
