Even though I’d already made a set of Halloween coasters before (remember this creepy set?), I couldn’t help myself recently. When I spotted this stack of plant saucers at the thrift store, I immediately thought of easily transforming them into pumpkin coasters for Halloween.Read more ›

September 23, 2022 · By · 2 Comments
Since I don’t have kids, I don’t typically create projects that are geared towards the kiddie lifestyle. But, I decided to celebrate the new school year underway by creating some arts and crafts storage with something I found at the thrift store. Since the 64-count box of crayons was always my favorite school supply, I’m honoring that colorful memory by creating a rainbow organizer for art supplies!Read more ›

Non-Pumpkin Fall Decorations

I’ll be the first to admit that I absolutely LOVE pumpkins when it comes to decorating for Fall. I have “pumpkinized” countless thrift store items over the years, and yes, there will be MORE in the future. But even I recognize the fact that they can be easily overdone. So, I thought it’d be fun to create a post about non-pumpkin fall decorations in case you would like a bit more variety, as well.Read more ›

Many years ago while visiting our old stomping grounds (West Palm Beach), we visited a nautical antiques shop that was simply FABULOUS. While no longer in business there, I’ve had a prized pair of lobster buoys since our visit. And one of them recently inspired me to create some coastal fall decor.

As we transition from our old decor style (vintage farmhouse) to our new style (mid century modern eclectic), I am slowly replacing things around our home. In particular, I needed to replace the key bowl that my husband has relied upon for years as a safe haven for his keys and wallet.Read more ›

For some reason, when I think of summery projects, my mind immediately goes to coastal or beachy style decor. But, after finding this cute little beehive honey jar in a thrift store, I thought it might be fun to make some bee decor for summer, as well.Read more ›
Coffee Table Tray Decor in Coastal Colors
July 13, 2022 · By · 19 Comments
When I first spotted this tray at a thrift store, I thought, “Who would donate such a wonderful wooden tray?”. Picking it up, however, proved me wrong- turns out, it wasn’t solid wood at all, but rather something man-made. Which meant it was destined for upcycling, so I decided to create some coffee table tray decor that was perfect for summer.Read more ›

Well, by constantly shopping at Habitat ReStore…seeing shelves full of glass light shades…and realizing that the right one could be perfectly upcycled as a Liberty Bell replica.Read more ›
