DIY

I love taking something that seemed useless and turning it into something fabulous!  DIY helps fill my need to create.  When I go to thrift stores and yard sales, I get an excited tingle all the way to my toes!  You never know what you might find and the possibilities are endless.  Every time I go to throw something away or put it in the donation pile, I think about what else I may be able to do with it.  I also like to be able to do as much household maintenance myself as possible.  Like the time I changed out our kitchen sink trap!  It was disgusting, but I felt so accomplished knowing I did it myself.  You never know what you might find here, so keep looking!

Decorating for Fall While Waiting on a Hurricane

It’s a little late, since the calendar has said it’s fall for almost a month. Really, it just hasn’t […] Read more…
