I gave you a sneak peek in my last post of the fantastic new/old window (old window, but new to me – get it?) I recently added to our family room – I even had a reader comment that she wanted to know more about it! Ask, dear friends, and ye shall receive. I apologize in […]
$1.50 Heart Wreath
I know Valentine’s Day is only a couple days away now, but hey, better late than never, am I right? I made a heart wreath today – I’ve had the materials for a while and planned on doing this at our Craft Night, but a bunch of sicknesses and snow day rescheduling got in our way and […]
When The Stars Align…A perfect desk for my girls
What happens when you: A) have a little girl who would love to have a desk in her room, BUT… B) her room is the size of a shoebox, and C) playing school is her favorite thing on the face of this EARTH. D) Then you get on Facebook to see someone in your town is […]
How to make a Sign with A Marker and ZERO Stencils!
TWO POSTS IN TWO DAYS?!!! Who is this person!?!! Thanks for all the love on my coffee bar post yesterday, friends! So happy you like it as much as I do:) It’s a rainy Monday here, so that little bar’s working overtime! Which means the ND is working overtime as well! I’ve been wanting to […]
DIY Coffee Bar
Oh man, do I love this project, folks! If you read my last post, you know I’ve been working on a coffee bar for our dining room. Our dining room is basically an extension of my kitchen, so I figured, why not? I have to take maybe an extra five steps to the sink to […]
DIY Coffee Bar Sign
If you follow my Facebook page or Instagram, you probably know I’m working on a coffee bar for my dining room. It’s just about done – I have to pick up one or two more little items to complete it, and I’m loving it! Hopefully the post will be up next week sometime. I definitely […]
Moving the Plate Wall (and Camouflaging a Thermostat!)
Things are a-changin’ in the dining room and I’m loving how things are shaping up! Over the weekend, I switched some things around…the plate wall being one of those things. That post disappeared when my old page got hacked, but it was basically some plastic plates attached to the wall using those nifty command strips. Originally, the […]
Old Table, New Life
As you may know, I’m making some changes in the dining room. I’ve been on the lookout for a cute little (emphasis on little!) accent table – something that can squeeze into this tiny wall we have in there, and act as a catch-all surface for mail, keys, phone chargers, etc. I’ve got an image […]
Who Says You Have to Pay For Furniture?
Ok, the title might be a little misleading, because in all honesty, this is a tale of a whole lotta luck on my part. I recently gained an entire ‘new to me’ set of dining room chairs…and didn’t spend a dime. I realize this isn’t always the case – you can’t exactly decide today to […]
Sharpie Magic, a Rockin’ Tray, and The Room That Always Changes
A new blog post? Say whaaaaat? My apologies, dear friends. This might be the longest I’ve ever gone without posting – it’s not that I haven’t been doing stuff FOR the blog, it’s just that I’ve got 274 projects going simultaneously and therefore haven’t had time (or completed any of the 274 projects) to post. They’re […]










 
 Hi there! I’m Liz, a former teacher-turned-stay-at-home mom to three kids, with a passion to create a warm and inviting home on a budget. This blog all started when I’d put the babies down for a nap, and squeeze in a project during those precious couple of hours! My hope is that you visit this page and feel inspired to do a little “naptime decorating” of your own. Thank you so much for stopping by!
