Funky 1970’s Gallery Plate Wall

One of the more daunting aspects of our new live music venue (you can read more about it HERE, HERE and HERE) was the long expanses of empty wall space. The room is shaped like a long shoebox, so I had miles of empty space to […]
EASY Boho Yarn Wall Hanging Tutorial
A couple weeks ago I shared a boho chic makeover I did in my tiny sunroom. My budget-friendly update included a fun DIY wall hanging, which adds softness and texture to the room. I just realized I never shared the tutorial, so I thought I would […]

Customized Stock Photo Art

Styling ReStore Shutters
I stopped by my local Habitat for Humanity ReStore this week because I was on the hunt for some doors to use for my upcoming pantry project. I’m planning a shallow pantry between the studs just outside my kitchen door, something like THIS project from Design Sponge. […]
Easy Burlap Clip Board Art Display
After we made the pallet headboard for the spare bedroom, I was looking for something inexpensive and different to hang on the wall next to the bed. The DRG has a 10 year old son who visits us on weekends, so while the room is […]
