DIY Wrapping Station

DIY Wrapping Station

Who else is a total sucker for the $1 a roll wrapping 
paper at Target? I am! A place to store my rolls without
all the bent ends which was easily accessible was on my
to-do list and this wall needed a bit of color...

Found this open frame at an antique shop, although it's
not antique, it was perfect and snatched up for a great
price. A box of cup hooks, some mini metal rods
and a finished usable piece that isn't too shabby
to look at when coming down the stairs to the basement.

We already had the bar, hooks and buckets, so hung
a few for washi tape, stickers, etc. I moved the markers 
and scissors onto a high shelf in a closet, since we
still have littles and that would just be a catastrophe
waiting to happen!

A few jars for ribbon scraps and bakers twine. 
The green locker, which will be getting a paint face 
lift hopefully this summer, holds tissue paper, 
small boxes, bubble wrap and other packaging items.

The metal rods have a small hole in each end and are 
easily removable when you need to change out the
rolls of paper. A small piece of washi tape is also
a great way to keep the paper from unrolling.

DIY Frame and Valentine Mantle Decor

I asked my dear hubby to whip up another project
that's been floating around in my head. We needed 
something larger for our mantle that could be used 
to decorate with. After looking for frames at Michael's 
and a few other stores but not wanting to swallow 
the $100 or more price tag for the size we needed...

Two pieces of fence boards from Home Depot were
snatched up instead and this is what the hubs made 
that I painted with Americana Decor Chalk Paint.

 Just a simple square but it adds a bit of height
and will be so fun to switch up for all the different 
holidays this year, can't wait to continue
the crafting projects!!

Sunroom Wall Decor

Every room in our home is starting to feel a bit more complete. 
Yesterday, I finished this wall in our sunroom/mudroom
and love gazing at all the fun pieces.


I used a can of gold spray paint to make a few items 
fit the color scheme I was working towards and...
ta daa


Do you have a wall that is looking for a change? 
Try grouping 'like' items together and lay everything
out on the floor, moving things around until you like
the arrangement, then grab a hammer. Happy Hanging!
An afternoon coffee is always a welcome treat
after a productive day!

Front Entryway is Finished

So I obviously meant to write up this post in the Spring...but 
sort of got sidetracked (hmmm, not sure why, haha)
I've been collecting items to hang in our front entryway for awhile now
and finally felt like I had everything to complete the look I was going for.
So, after piecing everything together on the living room floor, 
I found the right mix and called on
the hubs to hang everything for me.

What do you think? Fun and cheerful, eh?!
I LOVE it!
The prints and birdcage, I bought off Zulily, I really need a 
frequent buyer card for that site, danger zone, if you catch my drift!
The yellow and turquoise medallions, mirrors, cross, chevron frame, 
shadow box and two smaller frames are from Hobby Lobby.
The large frame and pillows are from Target.
