Feature Friday

June 29, 2012 by Chris

Hey hey! Welcome back to the first installment of the second half of Feature Friday! Make sense? If you’ve been with me for a while, you know that Feature Friday has been around for a while. I stepped away from it for a minute, but I miss it. And I miss highlighting readers. So it’s back! And it’s goooood. If there’s a feature I love, it’s one who is a crazy visionary and one who says, “I … [Read more...]

Best of 2011

December 27, 2011 by Chris

My friend Rhoda is having her annual “best of” party, and who am I to miss a good party? I went through the ol’ archives and came up with my favorites—not an easy feat, mind you. Here we go! Coastal Bathroom DIY Bookshelves Painted China Cabinet A New Table Refinished Bench and Desk Craft Room Sewing Table DIY Tile Tray Sweater Wreath Son’s Tween … [Read more...]

The Must List: Perfectly Imperfect

April 13, 2012 by Chris

I call her “Southern Shaunna” (she doesn’t know that, by the way) ‘cause she has THEE most endearing accent you’ll ever hear. However, she is so much more than that. She is my furniture painting idol (ask me how many times I’ve watched her videos—it’s not natural), and she could very well be one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. What a treat to have her here! Hey folks! I'm Shaunna, and I … [Read more...]

Show and Share Day

June 24, 2011 by Chris

Adri sent me an e-mail the other day (LOVE when that happens) showing me a project that her and her husband had taken on. In case you don’t remember Adri, perhaps this will refresh your memory? Be still. My heart. As a teacher, don’t think I haven’t tried to bribe my librarians for one of these things. Still on the hunt. I will prevail. I digress…wanna see what they’ve been up to … [Read more...]

Painting Tables

August 3, 2011 by Chris

That’s a reference to waiting tables. However, any joke that has to be explained is not a good joke. I know. Moving on… I get a lot of questions about painting furniture. So, when I actually remember to take pictures of the process, I like to post on it. The console table got a makeover recently, and I’m here to show you how it was done. I will forewarn you now. There are a LOT of pictures. … [Read more...]

Living Room Redo

April 30, 2008 by Chris

Well, I'm one of those people who can't stand to show anything off until it's totally finished. If I waited for that, you wouldn't see any pictures. We painted and then I painted (and painted), we bought new carpet (for way more than we wanted to spend), and we bought a new leather chair to replace a floral chair that had seen better days--oh, but I loved it!! Here is the before … [Read more...]

Accent Table Redo

March 1, 2009 by Chris

Remember the bathroom re-design? Well, spring break is fast approaching, and I have to have things ready. I plan to paint that week, so I've been feverishly looking for things to prettify it. I don't know how you ladies find such great furniture at consignment shops. I never have any luck. Well....not never anymore! I went one last time to a store I don't really like going to, and look who was … [Read more...]

Furniture Arrangement

March 24, 2009 by Chris

Where have I been? I have a husband who is a high school wrestling coach. We just won the state championships. If I go to one more "celebratory" party and talk wrestling, I'm going to throw up. So, I'm back. First up on my honey do list? Re-arrange the furniture in the living room. I give you the befores... And now the afters... Here are my thoughts on moving furniture. This new … [Read more...]

Medicine Cabinet Organization

June 5, 2016 by Chris

Hi all! Sorry about the absenteeism recently. I guess I could give you a list of things that have kept me away for so long, but let's just say it's been busy around here! I have a LOT of posts to write, but no time or energy to write them. School's almost out, and that means back to our regularly scheduled program. I worked on some organization recently and thought you'd like a tip! The tip? … [Read more...]

Stationary Stationery

September 1, 2010 by Chris

Look at that. A clever title and I can probably find it in the future. Okay. I have been trying to teach my children about the value of a written thank you recently. While I’m kind of obsessed with stationery, I have admittedly gotten away from using it as often as I should. Thanks to winning a $50.00 gift card to Tiny Prints last fall, I was finally able to fulfill my return address label … [Read more...]

Tag Tutorial

July 15, 2008 by Chris

Do you ever feel like you go from having nothing to post about to having so many things, you just can't wait to post them? Yeah, me neither. Just kidding. I posted about the closet redo, and my blog friend Suzanne asked where I got the tags for the bins. Well, lemme tell ya! It's actually scrapbook paper inside some metal scrapbook rims. Some time ago I made a confession that I'm a scrapbooker … [Read more...]

The One Room Challenge Plan

April 6, 2018 by Chris

black white home office

You read that right. ORC...One Room Challenge. I've never joined simply because I've never wanted to be restricted to a rigid timeline. Unfortunately, timelines tend to be my #1 nemesis when it comes to projects. I start one...then abandon it. No worries though 'cause then I start another one. And abandon it. Are you sensing a pattern here yet? One Room Challenge The concept of the ORC is … [Read more...]

Organized Garage Shelves

March 31, 2013 by Chris

This month's Lowes Creator challenge was a no-brainer. I don't have much of a pantry, so a while ago I decided to utilize our garage for some extra storage. Unfortunately, Michigan winters get pretty bitter, and we end up throwing stuff on the shelf in order to get back inside.  The weather is starting to break, so the chaos needed to be tackled. "How bad could it be?", you ask. Take a look. … [Read more...]

One Room Challenge: Week 3

October 17, 2018 by Chris

semi-flush lighting

Soooo here's a little explanation for you. I started this room in the spring--as in the SPRING One Room Challenge. Unfortunately, my mom had a massive heart attack, and I had to abandon things for a while. Good news? My mom's doing much better (yay!), and her health is steadily improving. Bad news? My home office still sits there. Unfinished. What better way than joining the One Room … [Read more...]

Well, hello. Ahem.
Allow myself to introduce..my..self. My name is Chris! And I’m a blogger! I got into blogging after spending months reading all the inspiration that is found in blogland. I thought to myself, “Self, I can do this. I might have something to offer too!” And so it began....Read More...
