Unique Window

I have this beautiful window in the front of our house.  When we come down our stairs you have this bright window.  I like the sunlight coming in but I don't like the feeling  that people driving by can see in.  So this is what I came up with.  I found an old window at The Wood Shack for a great price.  Then I went to Glass Link to pick out replacement glass.  They cut it to size for me so all I had to do was get the old glass out (easier said than done).  I bought 2 hooks and some chain to hang and it's perfect!

Ugly Light Made Pretty!

We had a really ugly light in our dinning room.  My before picture is really poor but it was a brown color with super ugly shades.  I thought for sure I was going to have to go shopping for a light fixture!  I took off the shades and painted it with left over paint from by Grandma's hutch I posted earlier.

I love it!  See the curtains in the background?  I made those too!  Those will be posted soon too! 

Ruffle Curtain $10 per panel

I found the cutest curtains for my daughters room but they were like $89 a piece.  So of course I researched a cheaper way to accomplish the same look.  I found a tutorial on http://aboyagirlandapug.blogspot.com. 
Here is my inspiration picture.....

So stinking cute-right?!

Here is what I came up with......

Not too shabby for two Wal-Mart twin sheets! 

Another Kitchen Table & Chair Re-Do!

I am for some reason having so much fun painting and making furniture in my own house look cool-I decided to do my friends kitchen table and chair set.  I love the way it turned out!

Window and Frame Projects

I have a friend who has a couple barns full of really cool stuff.  I got an old window and some old frames and this is what I came up with.

Garbage Can Scrunchy

I saw this on Pinterest and fell in love with it.  Here is the link if you want to make this Garbage Can Scrunchy.  One difference in mine is I  used regular fabric and she used laminated fabric. I went to Ace and bought the 20 gallon metal garbage can-I think it was $20.  This was a fun and easy project!

 

Gotta Love Craigs List!

I love finding cool things on Craig's list.  I love selling things on Craig's list too!  I found this cool computer Armour for $140.  It was just a little boring for my taste so of course I wave my magical wand......
