Based on this photo, I know I have some explaining to do. So here's the story... Back in my bachelorette days, whenever I would make a purchase, I would open a store card to get the 15% discount. I would then pay in full, close the card, and add it to my stack. So Bob, the answer to your question is NO, they are not active, and NO... you cannot have them. So basically, this project has been ... [ Read More ]
Recycling Scribbles
After our kitchen demo/reno, I took the liberty of putting up these three little unfinished wooden picture frames above the coat rack.They've been serving their purpose, but let's be honest... these photos were taken about 8 years ago (no exaggeration) and they were taken with a CHEAP camera (less than digital) and by an extremely amateur photographer (yours truly).Here are the close up's so you ...

Bill Board
Similar to my crafting 'illness,' Nick's illness is his organization, list-making and spreadsheet obsession. There are times when this is really annoying. But when it comes to our finances... he has a VERY elaborate spreadsheet and system for categorizing all of our expenditures, which comes in very handy. We're never late making payments, and we can see how much debt we're knocking out each ... [ Read More ]
Get Lit
Do you guys remember this random craigslist lamp from a few months ago? Well since then, it's been serving it's purpose... lighting our very beige and cave-like living room (which is next on the major room makeover list).Then I got my hands on it.I just can't sit and watch a movie when there are paint brushes and fabric in the house. It's my illness....among other things.Not a single thing is ... [ Read More ]
Mag Rack
Awhile back, my mom bought me this sweet magazine rack at a garage sale. I love it. I've tried it out in every room in our house, because I just like to look at it. I also like to store our magazines in it. For a brief moment, I thought about painting it... until Nick threatened to tie me to a tree and flog me. Them menfolk love their natural wood! ...hmmm. Don't read too far into ... [ Read More ]
Floral Decorative Thingy
Last week, on my lunch break, I went thrifting. It was... well let's just say it was super fun. Finding awesome stuff and ridiculously low prices is gratifying to me in a way that I can't explain. And so I shant. I bought this weird floral wall-hanging thing. I almost didn't buy it, because $4.99 seemed a little pricy to me. But I just couldn't help but see the good in her, and all the things I ... [ Read More ]
Mirror Makeover
Our downstairs bathroom was one of the first things we tackled after moving to the homestead, understandably so. We're stoked about the results, and it's turned out to be one of our favorite redo's so far.Subconsciously though, I've been keeping my eye out for a new bathroom mirror, because ours is super... bland. It's just a square beveled mirror with these tacky ghetto plastic things holding it ... [ Read More ]
Home Improvements: Headboard
Granted, I'm no interior designer (though I wasted a lot of money thinking I could become one) I still cruise around my house looking for little things I could improve or update to make our home as beautiful and personalized as possible... on little to NO budget. So, as i stood at the foot of our master bed, I sadly look up at my lack of headboard. The dilemma being: I have a super cute comforter, ... [ Read More ]
