Before you scroll any further… stop and repeat after me, “I will not stop following this blog because of the pictures I am about to see.” Ok. Got that done…now let me show you a never-before-seen room in my house, all BEFORE pictures, and a room that pretty much breaks every rule of decorating that […]
Friday Frugal Finds: 1/2 price day and fun finds at Value Village
You are not going to want to miss next week on the blog. I am going to start a series of sorts and reveal a room that you have never seen on the blog before and there’s a reason why you have never seen it! So stay tuned for that! Last week was 1/2 […]
Friday Frugal Finds: bedroom décor steals, shower décor, pillows, and wedding gifts from yard sale finds…
I had a big yard sale/thrift shopping weekend last weekend! I specifically set aside some time on Friday to concentrate on shopping any and all yard sales I could find instead of just stopping at any I see as I make my way to town to do errands. And I invited a friend to […]
Entryway before and after (beige to GREIGE with Behr paint!)
So I have been plugging along in repainting our house. If you missed it before, I am a partnering with Behr paint as a Behr DIY Expert again this year and it couldn’t have come at a better time. We painted our entire house when we moved in 10 years ago and except for a […]
Friday Frugal Finds: thrift store finds–shoes, kitchen décor, throws, and more
Today I have a mix of frugal finds to share with you from various trips to thrift stores over the last few weeks. I picked up this heavy, nice candlestick for $1.01 at Value Village. On my next trip to Value Village (yes, the cashiers really do know me by name ), I picked up […]
Friday Frugal Finds: Goodwill shopping even on vacation
One day I will get back into a regular blogging schedule again, you guys! I miss the blog and my readers when I am not blogging but can’t seem to do projects, live life, and blog all at the same time anymore after my life getting so rearranged in the last 6 months. Hoping in […]
Front porch makeover (decorated for summer in red, white, and blue)
Can’t wait to show you my summer front porch! I just love red, white, and blue and using it to decorate outdoors for summer just seems so fitting! But first let’s stop back a bit and look at how we got to that pretty decorated porch. It required lots of painting, staining, and cleaning! The […]
Friday Frugal Finds: vintage Pyrex, tupperware, and more
I just did a little yard sale shopping last weekend. I typically do all my errands on Friday so just stop at any sales I happen to see on my way to town and around town. I need to schedule a weekend soon to just devote to ALL yardsaling or thrifting! Haven’t done that […]
Red and yellow summer wreath with a burlap bow
So you know I couldn’t keep my front door naked for long! It looks so weird to me to not have something up there. And since I can FINALLY use any color I want on my black door instead of colors like red looking horrible on my burgundy door, I couldn’t wait to create […]
Friday Frugal Finds: games, basket, décor, and the house I wanted to buy
I found quite a few things last week on my frugal shopping venture I am always on. 1/2 price day was last week at Value Village and of course I was there! I got this basket for $1.01. And 2 more pillows I forgot to take pictures of – won’t keep the covers but just […]
