Cute-cheap bathroom light idea

Share

Before:

After:

 

We wanted to do something a little different for the bathroom lights above the sinks and didn’t want to spend a lot.  We bought these galvanized steel outdoor light fixtures at Lowes for $25 each.  Then we (and by we, I of course mean, my darling husband) sprayed them [...]

Big Blankie Border…finished!

Share

So here is the border I made for my big granny stripe blankie.  I am so happy to have this finished and move onto some new projects.  Maybe I’ll show more pics of it later.  But right now I am just excited to have it finished.  We are not using it on the bed [...]

German Glass glitter letters.  LOVE.  I think I might move the darling banner to my sewing area…but I really like the love banner above the door.  Hopefully you can feel the love when you walk into our home and you feel loved when you go back out into the world too:)  The [...]

Cabinet progress

It is hard to tell this is progress, right?  What a mess this was!  And a lot of work!  I am happy to say we are almost done now.  Two doors need a final coat by hand, but all the others are rehung.  It looks amazing!  I can’t wait to show the [...]

Quick weekend project…

Share

We had a letter from the Association that we had to replace a missing light on our garage in the back alley.  The giant, horrible brass light (that Darling hated) mysteriously disappeared a while ago and never got replaced.  So we switched one of the small brass lights from the house to that spot and [...]

Slips…finally!

Share

Can you believe it?  I finally started!  Holy cow, I have talking about this for ages!  This Ikea table is great for project-ing!  There is lots of light in the front room to sew by.

I learned to make piping today!  My Bernette has a zipper foot!  YAY!  It is my one extra [...]

Darling sprayed these [...]
