Christmas Dreaming

I don't know why but I dreaming of Christmas already.

Maybe it's because I am hearing Christmas music in the stores and the decorations were put out at Hobby Lobby in July.

Isn't that why they call it Christmas in July?

I usually resist until the last minute. Not this year.

My house will be beautiful with all sorts of nifty crafty little Christmas decorations that I'm going to make.

It will also be beautiful because of all the vignettes that I create.
Beautiful mantel inspiration from Pinterest

 Well, and as long as I am dreaming...

I want my house to look like this.

Love the simpleness of this! Thanks Pinterest

    ME TOO!! Love your plans. I'm having the same trouble! I keep reminding myself to still enjoy the beauty of fall, but I think the commercialism has gone to my head. It's time to look a lot like Christmas! :)

    We've already started decorating by putting up window clings. We hope to get the tree up next week. It's early but I want to actually be able to enjoy my decorations. Plus, I'm tired of these presents taking over my closet space.

    you should at least give credit to the people whose pictures/ideas you stole. Saying "thanks, pinterest" doesn't acknowledge the designer/artist/decorator. It only takes a few more clicks to trace the idea/picture back to the source.

When your plan really isn't your plan after all.

I don't know about you but before I start a project, I start the vision for the project. Sometimes way before the project starts! But often, that vision changes multiple times before the project is finished. Heck sometimes I don't really even have a plan I just start painting or tearing out stuff and sometimes I just change my mind. But most times, it is because what I really want to do, for one reason or another, I can't. Take our basement bathroom for example. In this case I had a basic plan and everything that could go wrong, went wrong. As I was thinking about the bathroom I realized I hated it in the furnace room to begin with. I also hated the sauna and shower the previous owners had installed at the other end of the basement (which we never use). So I put plans in motion to get rid of the sauna. This would free up a big chunk of space and my plan was to make it a full bath at that end of the basement as it already had a shower. Several months later, and multiple fail...

DIY Kitchen Counter Beadboard Treatment

We have lived in our house for six years this month and every month of every year I have hated the back of this bar area! It is sooo blah and sooo oak  and sooo country looking. So, started researching what I wanted to do with it. First I tried to add the decorative wood corner pieces along with a decorative wood scrolly thing (real technical name, huh?) for the center. Did a cool paint treatment and really loved it, just threw some wood glue on and glued them up there. They lasted about six months. Every month or so another decorative piece would fall off until all I had left was one corner piece and the middle thing. I then tried a paper bag wallpaper treatment that really worked well and, of course, was real cheap. After applying the paper bag wallpaper I mixed some brown paint with water and antiqued it. Then, let that dry and antiqued it with a black glaze. Looked absolutely fantastic but as it started to dry the paper bags started lifting off the wall. So, I finally r...

A Quicker and Easier Way to Stepping Stones

Pin It This post came up in my memories feed from 2013 and as I was cleaning my yard up for Spring, I realized just how great these stepping stones still look six years later! So, yes I can still say: " However, my best project yet? Stepping stones. Now you might be wondering why this is such a big deal? I have wanted to put a stepping stone pathway from the gate to the backyard and back towards the patio/pool area for eight years. Eight looooong years. You wouldn't think this would be such hard thing to do now would you? But it was either the money (means about 15-20 stones which can get quite pricey), needing a truck or trailer to haul them, needing help to lift the suckers, or just life that got in the way."  Recently I read some articles about quick and easy stepping stones and it got me thinking that I could make that project quicker and easier by cutting a few corners. You won't believe how easy this was! 1. Buy a bag of Quikrete or regular ...
