Farmhouse Friday #14 – Farmhouse Kitchens with Charm and Function

The heart of every home is the kitchen, so this week we’re taking a look at farmhouse kitchens that range from traditional to modern style. My farmhouse kitchen went through a huge renovation to get it where it is now, but it was well worth it! See the before and all the after photos HERE. Now let’s take a look at some more amazing farmhouse kitchens! This classic farmhouse kitchen has a timeless look that never goes out of style. {Read More}

Well, Butter My Bread! {Baking Center Sign, Apron, and Table Runner}

My poor bread machine has been sitting forgotten and forlorn in my pantry for more than 3 years.  It was one of my most dearly loved kitchen appliances, helping me bake fresh bread 3 times a week, but when we moved from Missouri to Illinois more than three years ago, it got stuck in the barn while we remodeled our kitchen.  By the time the remodel was finished, I had gotten used to buying store-bought bread, and just stopped making homemade {Read More}

Vintage Dairy Bottle Caps

I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!  I did, but I’m exhausted and stiff.  Last weekend we drove to New Mexico to attend my oldest niece’s high school graduation celebration, and we just got home a little over an hour ago.  My husband did all the driving, bless his heart, but I’m still wiped out from being in the car all night, and a good chunk of today.  I loved spending time with our  my families, but it’s {Read More}

DIY Sheet Music Placemats

I really wish I was musically inclined, but one of my regrets in life is that I quit taking piano lessons when I was young.  I just didn’t have the patience or drive to make myself practice every day.  I’d like to think that some day I’ll try again, but I’m not sure I’d have any more patience or drive now than I did back then, but I do love old sheet music. I’ve got bunches and bunches of it.  I sell {Read More}

Galvanized Bucket Makeover

I picked up this old galvanized bucket at a thrift store a few weeks ago.  I usually leave them as-is, because they’re so darn cute, but I decided to play around with this one a bit.  I’ve done a lot of transfer projects on wood and canvas, but I thought I’d try it on metal this time.  I was a little concerned that I might ruin the cute bucket, but crossed my fingers that it would turn out. SHOP FOR GALVANIZED {Read More}

Printable Antique Milk Caps

When I went to Arkansas last week, there was only 1 antique store in the town where I visited, but I found some goodies to bring home, including quite a few antique milk caps.  This grouping all have green in them.  I’m working on a project right now with one of these images, and hope to get it finished to show you later in the week.  Wish me luck because I’m only about halfway through, and can’t tell how it will turn out {Read More}

repurposed Starbucks bottle … because it’s cute, right?

Am I the last person in the world to realize that Starbucks bottles look like old pint-sized milk bottles? Well, they kinda-sorta do, right? Okay, it might be a bit of a stretch, but if you have a good imagination, and some white paint, it could pass for a milk bottle right? Actually, that doesn’t really have anything much to do with my post today, but just play along, okay?

DIY Farmhouse Kitchen Wall Art

A few days ago, I shared a wonderful vintage can label printable with a cow on it, and today I’m going to show you how I turned it into farmhouse kitchen wall art.  As with most of my projects, this one was super easy and took about 30 minutes to complete, but that included painting time, which you may not choose to do. Here are the supplies I used: copy of  can label (HERE) thrift store frame school glue paintbrush – at least {Read More}
