Circle Monogram Pallet Sign

by

I love the look of big monogram décor on front porches, and had an idea in my head to pull off something showstopping! Unfortunately, we don’t have an obvious place to put something this large on either of our two porchy areas, so I decided to make it for my parents… can we call it a Mother’s Day gift?! Hehe! *This post is sponsored by Rockler. Thank you for supporting the brand partners that make ... [ Read More ]

Baby Doll Crib Rescue–fixing the wobbly joints!

by

This little baby doll crib was given to my mom when she was a little girl, and is the sole reason she quit believing in Santa Claus. You see, her pops got a little careless with the hiding of ‘Santa’s gifts’, and my Mom’s innocent little child-eyes got a fleeting view of this baby doll crib in the trunk of their car before her dad realized his error and quickly slammed the trunk. Kind of a sad ... [ Read More ]

Scrap Wood Decorative Inlay Nesting End Table

You might think that we must have a swanky wood shop with ample space, stacks of exotic rough-cut hardwoods, Festool everything, and gloriously organized-according-to-color spray paint collection (OKAY we totally do have that last thing). Everything else? #notsomuch …In reality, we use our two-car garage as our wood shop, and park our vehicles outside in the elements. Because priorities. But ... [ Read More ]
