This was one of my lucky thrift store finds of the season! 

This quick and easy project can take a pumpkin from plain to fabulous in no time. 

This project started because I was doing laundry in the basement and while I waited for the dryer to finish I began cleaning up the workshop.

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. 

Not too long ago I had the opportunity to sponsor a company called burlapfabric.com.They asked me to do an article highlighting pumpkin and fall project ideas for burlap. 

This was the easiest and cheapest repurposed pumpkin  yet this season! 
It all began with this round, white tobacco basket from the dollar spot at Target. It was $3, I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it when I bought it but I knew it would be good for something and the price was right! 

If you follow Homeroad and I sure hope you do, you know that at this time of year I turn everything into a pumpkin! So when I found this very cool bakeware mold at a garage sale, I saw pumpkin written all over it! 

A while back I made a fun project using a whole bunch of wine corks I had been saving. The project was a wine cork trivet but as some projects go, it sat around for a while and I repurposed it. 

My daughter and I worked on a project for an auction recently. The project, like most of my projects didn't end when the blog post was over. 

Together we worked on a vertical succulent garden in a vintage frame. Her plant expertise and my love for DIY came together to create a beautiful project for the auction. 

I've seen these vertical succulent planters all over Pinterest and even though I do not have a green thumb, I was anxious to make one. 

When my plant loving daughter decided to make one to donate to a local auction, we teamed up our skills and got to work. 

I started this project in great need, need of organizing some of my craft supplies in the workshop. The mess was getting out of hand and I needed to create some kind of storage to organize all these supplies I use all the time. 

Everyone loves decorating tiered trays for the holidays and today I'm going to show you just how easy it is to style one for the Fall.

This Fall project began with an old light fixture a friend gave me after renovating her bathroom... How did she know? 

Another piece headed back to the thrift store... I can only keep so much so when I don't use something for a long time, I send it back. My own recycling program of sorts! 

I remember this design from my grandmother's house when I was a kid. She had coasters made from the same pattern. I think that's why I brought it home in the first place. This tray however, was a mess. Scratched and chipped, it was ready for a make-over. 

A while back I made a key organizer from an old chair my daughter was throwing away. 

This project is a little bit repurposed, a little bit beach clean-up, and a whole lot of pumpkin! I love using found objects to create repurposed projects and this repurposed fall pumpkin is no exception! 

I was cleaning out and throwing away when I ran across a footed tray I found at the thrift store a while back.

The tray wore out it's welcome at my house, things come and go very often. 
Often my things are shared with my daughters that have houses end up back here again. 
I decided before I sent it back to the thrift store I'd try to up-cycle it for the fall. 
I began by painting the tray Raw Silk by Fusion Mineral Paint. You can find a Fusion Mineral Paint dealer near you by visiting this bold link. 
I gave it only one coat because I was going for a very rusty look in the end.

Recently, I had the opportunity to work with a great online company that supplied me with burlap for a few projects I had in mind for the fall. 

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

This easy to make hoop wreath is a knock off of my own Spring Wreath I made earlier this year.
