• DIY: Fixer Upper Inspired Wood Sign

  I have a pile of scrap lumber and I don’t want to waste it. I don’t even have any pressing building projects at the moment. However, I still want to create something from the wood. I’ve been crushing on this Magnolia sign for awhile, but sadly, I didn’t act soon enough and now it’s discontinued. […]

  When we last left you, our beautiful antique mantle with its faux firebox looked like this: Nothing was painted, no stone was laid. Things were kinda bare. And unfinished.

• Five Fantastic Farmhouse Finds at Hobby Lobby

  

  We don’t have a Hobby Lobby in my town, and that might be a good thing…at least from a spending standpoint. We do have two of them within 45 minute drives of our house, though. Anytime I have to make a trip into either of those towns, I try to stop by. I recently went […]
