Today I'm gathering a pile of reclaimed wood and constructing a heart for Valentine's Day. I'm down in the workshop just messing around to see what I can come up with. 

Every once in a while I have to take apart an old project and make it over again.  Today as I wait for my new kitchen to be finished I'm repurposing a pot rack I no longer need...

When you're on a beach vacation and you can't sit still a great thing to do is to search the beach for treasures.  I found beautiful driftwood slats that were leftover from a dune fence and brought them home to create! 

I'm so excited about today's project! As you may have seen, I've been working on decorating my outdoor deck. I'm going with a blue theme and when I found a set of gorgeous fish plates that match, I was over the moon! 

Today I'm making easy DIY drink coasters with egg designs for the Easter holiday. 

Another neighborhood walk this morning that yielded trash I turned into a treasure. It all started with this pile of pickets from a fence I found on the side of the road.

This cute little quick project was copied straight from the pages of Organized Clutter. My friend Carlene is a DIY genius. I love her work! I'm copying her junky tree idea but my project will be created on a tiny Weatherwashed pallet.

I started out with small pieces of wood that were not stained or painted. I dipped each piece into a bucket of Weatherwash, it's a beautiful way to age wood and it comes in several colors, it's like barn wood in a bottle. 
Today, I am using the color Oaked. I waited overnight for the wood to dry then built a small pallet by laying the wood pieces side by side then wood gluing a couple of cross pieces to the back to secure all the wood together.

I gathered all kinds of junk from my workshop and laid them out in the shape of a Christmas tree. I used k…

A while back I made a set of rustic pallet drink coasters. Today, I'm making a Christmas version because I was inspired once again my the shelves at Marshalls. 

My favorite kind of pumpkin is a white one. I love neutral colored and white pumpkins of all shapes and sizes. 

My daughter and I saw these cute coasters in Marshalls and I knew in a minute they'd be my next DIY project! 
I knew I had some small pieces of wood from an old game in the workshop that would be perfect.

As usual I wasn't quite sure where this project would end up when I started. 

I am really ready for summer and a private beach!

This amazing project was actually very easy to make!

I just love pallet art, especially the ones with pumpkins!

This is a project that has been repurposed  not once but three times. 

Happy New Year Everyone! Today I'm sharing some of my favorite projects from 2016.

It is craft fair day once again! 

The time is approaching to pull out my favorite rustic hot cocoa tray.

The beautiful Christmas stencil makes the tray!

Here is a display shelf I'm working on right now... I didn't get the "before" shot because frankly sometimes.
