I am absolutely in love with the show Fixer Upper on HGTV. It is not only the house transformations I love, but Chip & Joanna Gaines are seriously the cutest couple & the love they have for each other is obvious-did I mention how funny they are? Anyway, I love how Joanna decorates. She comes …

I showed the refinished footstool in my last post, but was unable to show the full reading corner because I had to finish this awesome mirror first. All you home decorators know when you have a vision in mind you can not sleep until you have it finished! I have been wanting a reading area …
We continue to get hit with snow in New England, but I am so ready for Spring! I figured I would decorate the mantle & at least bring Spring inside! I have found some great items at the thrift store the last few times I have gone. Some things are …
I am in full Valentine’s Day mode and have been working on some projects that have been swirling around in my head since I saw this gorgeous red burlap at Walmart the other day. I picked up a yard for $2.97, love a deal! I didn’t want a standard round wreath for my door, but …
