I hear so many people say they wish they could move out of the city and into the country. They want an old farmhouse on a few acres, and would like to raise chickens, and listen to the sound of crickets, instead of cars honking. I think I should be honest with you though. There are a few things you might miss about the city, and I feel it’s my duty to tell you.
Beauty Salon Makeover for an Old Oil Heater
August 4, 2016 by 38 Comments
When I was a little girl, I loved going with my mom to the beauty salon. I remember the mint green walls in the salon. I remember the long row of hooded hair dryers. And I remember watching in fascination as the beautician teased mom’s hair into a beehive. And I distinctly remember the smell of all the Aqua Net required to keep the beehive in place.

I wasn’t really in the mood to do any organizing, but there’s a rebellion going on in the barn door cabinet in my entryway, and I was in the middle of it. I use the cabinet to hold paint supplies, but the cabinet could only hold so many containers, and I had crossed that line.

I have a quick, cheap, and easy project to show you today, but first, breaking news… I went on a little getaway with my daughter (that’s not the breaking news part). She needed to go out of town to take some classes for her job, and I went with her. Be patient…that’s not the breaking news part either. 🙂 When we arrived at our hotel, they gave us the usual card key for our room, and as I stood in front of our room’s {Read More}

Ladder Plant Stand Blooming in the Guest Room
July 7, 2016 by 9 Comments
I usually fill the rungs of the ladder in my guest room with old things, but it occurred to me that since the ladder sits right next to the window, I should take advantage of that natural light and use it as a plant stand – at least through the summer and fall months. I took down the cafe lights I had hung in there (seen here), because I’m hoping to move the lights to either our front patio or back {Read More}
