I wanted to do a little something fallish for my fireplace mantel and decided I'd make an autumn leaf garland. Only I got rid of all my scrapbook paper last year :) I used to decoupage a lot but last year I was de-cluttering all my craft supplies and I was thinking about what types of projects I really wanted to do. Decoupage wasn't one of them. So since I had no scrapbook paper, I made some ... Read More about A Simple Autumn Fireplace Mantel
Laundry Room Love
We had a leak in a our laundry area and we're going to have the dry wall removed to have a look at the pipes so I think now is a good time to spruce that area up a bit. It's something I've always wanted to do anyway. I thought I'd share a few laundry room inspiration photos. There isn't one photo that has everything I like but there are bits and pieces in each one. Claduio Ortiz Design Group, ... Read More about Laundry Room Love
The Start of My Fall Vegetable Garden
I have room for several new raised beds in my kitchen garden area since my daughter and I expanded the veggie garden fence this summer. Normally we make our own raised beds from pine boards (see my tutorial on How To Build A Raised Bed).

A Homegrown Fall Centerpiece
I grew lots of sunflowers this summer. Mammoth ones and small ones. I grew them because they're such happy flowers. I don't think anyone could not smile when seeing a sunflower. But I also grew them to use in my fall decorating (and for seeds for the birds and little critters). Last year I went to a farmer's market where someone had shellacked the heads to sell for indoor decoration. I ... Read More about A Homegrown Fall Centerpiece
My First Chair Slipcover is Done!
I finally finished my slipcover for my wing chair that I started back in the beginning of summer! My first slipcover made with drop cloths! I am not a seamstress. I have rarely used my sewing machine since I got it about 10 years ago. As a matter of fact I had to get my manual out every time I wanted to wind a bobbin or thread my machine. I've been able to do little things that required just ... Read More about My First Chair Slipcover is Done!
