Some of you may have noticed that it's been a little quieter than usual here lately. Unfortunate, I injured my left thigh exercising (why does everything happen to my left leg?) which resulted in random sharp pains like someone was sticking a knife in my thigh. Not pleasant. Apparently I have some micro tears in my inner thigh and quadriceps muscle. I'm on a muscle relaxant which makes ... Read More about Vegetable Garden Update & More
My Polka Dot Curtains
I finally finished painting my living room Moonlight by Benjamin Moore (Yay one project I can check off)! I made a few changes to the window wall (cleaned the very dirty blinds for one thing) :) . Took my toile curtains down and washed them, but instead of putting them back I put up these cute red and white polka dot curtains I got at IKEA. $12.99 for two panels - which I think is a very good ...

We Had Everything But Money is a compilation of real life stories of people who ... Read More about “We Had Everything But Money” – Off The Shelf

I wrote about Blooms On a Budget and ... Read More about Loving Hydrangeas
Painted Living Room Mirror
Here's a really quick project I recently did. I painted this mirror that used to hang over my sofa. My faux fireplace is now where the sofa is with a different mirror over it. That big mirror is now hanging where the fireplace used to be. They've sort of switched spots. I didn't bother to take it down to paint because it's really heavy! But that's also what I did when I painted it ... Read More about Painted Living Room Mirror
My Cute Garden Gate
I've been wanting to paint at least one of my garden gates ever since I did that post on Colorful Garden Gates! Here's a look at one gate leading into my vegetable garden that I painted recently. I have a white picket fence that goes around my vegetable garden (which has two entrances). This is the smaller gate. I had a little bit of of white exterior latex left and mixed some other ...
