Months and months ago, I spotted some farmhouse style Christmas stockings via Country Living that were the picture of farmhouse Christmas perfection to me, and I’ve been wanting some like them ever since, and I finally have them!
Rustic Farmhouse Patriotic Pennant Banner

If you recall, last month I teamed up with an awesome group of bloggers for our first Farmhouse Friends event. We had so much fun, we decided to make it a monthly event through the summer, and I’m excited to show you the rustic farmhouse pennant banner I made for this month’s event! A few weeks ago, I shared my newest barn quilt, and I felt it needed a little something to give the display a more finished look. So I {Read More}
Country Boy Song & Thrift Frame Makeover for Dad
June 10, 2016 by 14 Comments
I’ll never forget the Christmas I received a John Denver album as a gift. I loved all the songs on it, but my favorite was the Thank God I’m a Country Boy song. I’d crank the record player’s volume up, and belt that song out at the top of my lungs, replacing “boy” with “girl”. I was a country girl back then, and I’m a country girl now, and I still love John Denver. 🙂 With Father’s Day coming up, {Read More}
DIY Blooming Pennant Banner

Today I’m going all Mr. Rogers, because it’s an absolutely beautiful day in my neighborhood. The skies are blue, the sun is shining, and the birds are chirping. So, I have to ask… Won’t you be my neighbor? 🙂 Seriously though, it’s a gorgeous day that just makes your step a little lighter, so I finished a project that puts a smile on my face. I said last week that I’d be making some projects with the antique seed packet printables, and I {Read More}
The Barn Quilt and the Bathroom
June 1, 2016 by 21 Comments
Have you ever felt absolutely, totally lost and clueless, and you just didn’t know what to do? Well, when I was in kindergarten, our classroom had its own bathroom that we didn’t have to share with the rest of the kids in the school. On the outside of the bathroom door was light switch that lit up and turned red when you turned on the light and went into the bathroom. There was no lock on the door, so this red {Read More}
How to Make Farmhouse Picket Fence Wall Hooks
May 18, 2016 by 10 Comments
If you’ve got about an hour to spare, today I’m going to show you how to make farmhouse style picket fence wall hooks that can be used to display home decor, like hanging mason jars, or use as a coat, hat, or apron rack. After using pallet wood on the walls when we remodeled our entryway, my supply of pallet wood was pretty much depleted. Getting more pallets isn’t a problem, but the axle on our hauling trailer broke, so getting the pallets {Read More}
Best of Farmhouse Friends + Rusty Bike Makeover
May 15, 2016 by 30 Comments
I’ve got a special treat for you today! I’ve teamed up with some of my blogging buddies to bring you Best of Farmhouse Friends, and for our special event, I gave my super rusty old bike a makeover and dressed it up with a farmhouse style flower basket! I bought my old bike four years ago at a yard sale (see how it looked when I bought it HERE). It was already really rusty when I got it, but it’s been sitting out {Read More}
Picket Fence Pet Gate
May 13, 2016 by 25 Comments
If you have an indoor pet – this post is for you. If you have a toddler who lives in, or visits your home – this post is for you. If you have neither an indoor pet, nor a toddler – I hope you like picket fences. 🙂 So, here’s the back story. I know I’ve mentioned before that we have a lot of pets. 2 horses, 4 dogs, and 2 cats to be exact.
Pegboard Kitchen Command Center Organizer
May 9, 2016 by 5 Comments
Last month I wrote a guest post for My Repurposed Life, showing my kitchen wall that I added a pegboard to. For that post, I styled the pegboard as a kitchen organizer. As much as I love it, I have other spots in my kitchen for the tools, but I use this area as a small home office nook, so what I really need is a kind of command center – a place to hang a calendar, and keep pens, notepads, and other things I {Read More}
Glass Door Cabinet Makeover + Tips!
May 6, 2016 by 13 Comments
I just finished a new project, and while I’m sharing it, I thought I’d give some tips on how to spray paint a design on glass with stencils, because it opens up so many more possibilities of ways to use your stencils. A few weeks ago, my husband and I went to a neighborhood yard sale, where I picked up this little cute little cabinet. I found it at the first stop we made, and loved the curved top around the glass {Read More}
