You can’t make me stop using my scroll saw! I’M OBSESSED! I’m gonna show you how to make this Wooden Nativity Set, mkay?! *This post contains affiliate links* When I was a little girl we had a Wooden Nativity Puzzle for kids (similar to this) that I have so many memories of playing with!

Wooden Herringbone Table with Tapered Legs
Howdy friends! Nick and I have been sort of ‘casually’ working on this Herringbone Table over the past month and a half. You might already know that if you’ve seen all the teasers on Nick’s Instagram (@TheSawdustMaker) …he can’t control himself! It’s been a really fun build, with lots of fun unique elements! Like the herringbone wood pattern, tapered legs, and suuuuper glossy epoxy ... [ Read More ]

You won’t see me passing up an opportunity to use my scroll saw! Especially if it means making these darling wood and acrylic Animal Banks.

Hanging Stockings without a Fireplace Mantel
Raise your hand if you don’t have a fireplace in your house! I’m raising my hand too. Besides the obvious benefits of having a fireplace, it’s just sad not having that picture perfect place to hang the kids’ stockings at Christmas time and hanging stockings without a fireplace mantel. I’ve half-considered the idea of building a ‘faux fireplace mantel’ like many of my DIY friends have done, but ... [ Read More ]
How to Fill Decorative Carvings in Dated Furniture
I think it’s safe to say we’ve all seen a dresser that looks like this at the thrift store, craigslist, or yard sales. It’s that token chunky dresser with the orangey wood-tone, 90’s hardware, and dated decorative carving in furniture. *This post contains affiliate links* I’m a big proponent of rescuing dilapidated and/or ugly furniture and giving it new life, as evidenced by our extensive ...

DIY Cactus Coasters
I usually avoid trendy things like the plague. I just don’t want my house to look like every other house on the block… which ironically, we live out in the country and literally don’t have any neighbors, so I’m in the clear, right?! But sometimes, WE LIKE WHAT WE LIKE… right? And I liked cacti long before they were trendy. Like, I have an actual cactus in my house that I nurture and keep alive. ... [ Read More ]
Halloween Sugar Skull for Trick or Treaters!
I chatted with you guys last week about how we’ve been challenged to create some wooden Harvest or Halloween themed yard décor in collaboration with The Home Depot and their DIH Workshop (that you can totally sign up for here!). I loved the concept, but knew I wanted change it up. Lots of different ideas were swirling through my head, and finally I landed on a skull for Halloween! But not a creepy ... [ Read More ]
Teardrop-shaped Bentwood Shelf
I’m always subconsciously gathering inspiration from everywhere. I’m the weirdo that can find beauty in the crack of a sidewalk or the spray pattern of mud on the wheel well of my car. So Pinterest is almost TOO stimulating for my over-active mind. But I do love following my close friends and family on Pinterest, and recently saw this Teardrop-Shaped Bentwood Shelf that my friend Laura had ... [ Read More ]
Moroccan-Shaped Wooden Sconce Vessels
I’ve been staring at my computer for the past 10 minutes trying to figure out what the title of this DIY should be. The shapes of them fit into the Moroccan shaped pattern criteria, and they are definitely sconces. But they can be used so many different ways, so I couldn’t go with ‘vase’ or ‘planter’ or ‘candle’. So VESSEL it is. This post is sponsored by DecoArt. Thank you for supporting the ... [ Read More ]
