Large Valentine X’s and O’s made out of lathing strips
Large Valentine X’s and O’s made out of lathing strips When it comes to home decorating there are hundreds of thousands of talented ladies out there. I sit in amazement some days at the creativity of some women! What’s even more awesome is that these women are willing to share their talents with us. This big project of X’s and O’s came from a broadcast that was on KSL’s Studio 5. The creator was Clockworkdesign. So far I haven’t found that she has a blog but she does do television segments with Brook Walker on studio 5. Like always we instantly fell in love and had to have our own sets! We…

DIY – Flakes and Flurries Winter Wood Sign
January is blue.. Literally I take down all the Christmas Decorations and I feel a little bit of a let down that all the beautiful décor is gone. Last year I made it a goal to decorate in winter, snowflake, snowmen and ice skating themed crafts to keep my spirits up. It helped a lot last year to have new colorful decorations to put up after the hype of Christmas was over. It’s been fun incorporating different hues of blue and aqua colors into my home during the month of January. I’ve loved watching all the Flakes and Flurries come down from the sky so that too helps me enjoy Winter…

Advice from a Pumpkin Home Decor Wood Sign
Our friend Liz showed us this darling saying about advice from a pumpkin and she was just dying to make it! I have no idea where she saw it from for us to give credit but we were able to see a picture. Off to the Pallet yard Krystal and I went to find free wood (yet not necessarily pallet wood). We were lucky enough to find this insanely large piece of pine at the pallet yard for free! Take a look at this photo to see how large it is before cutting it! Imagine two women trying to get this home and then cutting it themselves on the table…

Living room make over reveal and decorating ideas
My sister’s living room make over reveal I had the opportunity to make over my sister’s living room. It was such a whirlwind putting it all together that some of my pictures are from my phone, her phone and her camera. The transformation was fun to watch and we did it on a pretty strict budget. I would say overall this living room makeover was done for under $100.00 Now some people will ask how I could do it for so cheap? Let me tell you two words… GARAGE SALES. One man’s junk is another mans treasure. It is amazing what paint, spray paint and old frames, fabric, and time…

How to make a felt flower pillows
My friend Tenille told me about a cute pillow she wanted to make so we decided that we would get together last Friday and whip up some of these cute felt flower pillows We started by cutting out 30 3 1/2″ round circles out of felt and also 30 of 2 1/2″ round circles of felt. You can do this in any color! I chose a lighter cream color as the back of my pillow was going to be yellow. Once all circles were cut out I took each one and cut them in half. It is much faster to cut through 4 layers of felt at once. (if you…
