How to spray paint a brass light fixture or the RED chandelier in my bathroom (Beach-inspired bathroom makeover part 3)
I am on a mission to replace all the boring, brass, builder-basic light fixtures in my house (with thrift store and yard sale light fixtures I find). And my guest bathroom was not exempt from this list. Man, I am failing as a blogger with this bathroom. How I have no before pictures of the […]
DIY Board and Batten (Beach-inspired bathroom makeover part 2)

White and yellow Summer wreath (made with yard sale finds!)

“I love thrifting day” recap + pictures of our finds!
This past Saturday was so fun! Getting a bunch of ladies together to go shopping is fun… but get a bunch of frugal/spray-paint loving/thrift store loving ladies together (who all actually read my blog and many other blogs too) to go thrift store shopping is A BLAST! I am changing things up a bit this […]
Friday Family Fun – 4th of July style
(My nieces and nephew checking out the 1st firework show on Sunday night.) So in case you weren’t experiencing it where you live, you might have heard that the South got hit with a pretty major heat wave last weekend. Temps 100+ (I think the highest I saw on my phone was 108 degrees – […]
