Table makeover with Heirloom Traditions Paint "Make a wish" on my wish table!

A gorgeous and easy to make table.  Made especially for wishing.  I used Heirloom Traditions paint in the color of Polo from their "All in one" line.  The "wish" stickers are from Walmart but from a while ago, maybe 3ish years.  The perfect size of this table is what makes it so attractive.  It can be used as a coffee table, an end table, and even a nightstand.  Currently, it sits behind my couch which backs to a walkway.  Come Christmas time it will be decorated with blue and white decor.  I can hardly wait!!!

15 minute dinner - Cajun Carbonara Pasta with store bought white sauce

Make this dinner in 15 minutes or less with a few pantry staples. Its cheesy, spicy, and oh soooo good. I use andouille sausage for mine but any link sausage will work. Sometimes we add fresh tomatoes and green onions at the very end. Round out this yummy meal with garlic bread and a side salad. Makes great leftovers too!! #15minutedinner #CajunPasta #JunkShackBaby

DIY this Boho Rug for $10 or less using items from Dollar Tree - So many possibilities, just imagine

Everything for this excellent idea was purchased at Dollar Tree. Check out @JustinWrey on youtube for this inspiration https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQz4t-0xkyM. Design options are endless for you to make one for yourself. In this video, I used the nautical rope from Dollar Tree. I have just $10 into this project, not including glue sticks. The end result is just like a high-end rug. This is an all-cotton rope and I believe that is why the hot glue worked so well. I am confident this rug can take wear and tear except for the part about not being able to wash it. Keeping it out of the walkway and in a "pretty" spot is probably for the best. I know I'll be making another or three!! (already have one started ;) ) #BohoRopeRug #DollarTree #JunkShackBaby

Garden Tour June 2020

This video is really a document for me to reference back to.  Its the first summer with this new house and the enjoyment it has brought watching all of these grow has been wonderous.  I feel we were so lucky to buy this place because the gardens are a bonus.  I have planted so many things at other homes and I didn't get to see them all mature.  THIS home is giving me that tenfold.  There are a few things I will move around this fall but otherwise, I love everything and its location.  

Thanks for stopping by!

Tye-Dye Dining room chair with paint

I found this chair in my neighbor's trash.  Id always wanted to try the chalk paint technique on fabric and this chair provided me that opportunity for free.  

I did not originally start out to tye dye the fabric I really wanted it to look reupholstered with grannies old fabric but tye dye is what came to mind.  

Although I do like the way the chair turned out, I am not sure I'll ever be able to bring it inside.  The smell of the wax I used is noxious.  If one were to use a different wax, perhaps something made for fabric then I think it'd be fine.  

My paint kind of sat on top of the fabric which made it stiff and crackly.  We will still use it but likely only in the garage.

Painting Grandpa's table with DIY Paint and a chit-chat about favorite games ;)

This video is hilarious!! My 4-year-old grandson tells me EVERYTHING about Minecraft. He was spending the day with grandma when I was buffing the wax on this sweet table. Because of that, I decided to add some commentary about MY favorite kinda games, too. The table is painted with Debi's Design Diary paint in Farm Fresh, Bohemian Blue, and Little Black Dress. I used a floor paste wax from my local hardware store to give it a durable and long-lasting finish. One of my favorite little tables and I loooove this update. Thanks for watching!

Me & My Angel Feet Stool-A peek at who I am and how I think

In this video, I paint a regular stool with DIY paint from Debi's Design Diary in Bohemian Blue and tell you a few little things about me.  

Making, editing, and putting this video out there has done wonders for my well being.  In a video I produced I get to say everything I want without interruption from bullies and nonsense from the peanut gallery.  

I hope you enjoy it!
