This can be an enjoyable way to highlight thrifted finds or create a statement piece with a family heirloom.
Today’s post is hosted by Julie at Redhead Can Decorate and part of the Thrifty Style Team.
With thrifted mirrors, nailed and scattered across the wall, I knew there was a way to make a beautiful space. But I was stumped…As you can see in the picture below.
Before I go on, I wanted to let you know that this post is organized as part of The Thrifty Style Team hosted by Julie at Redhead Can Decorate.
Each one is perfect for the new home owner, a thrifty shopper or for creating your own style.
These are some of my own table makeovers along with a few from my blogger friends. Each one is unique with detailed tutorials.
It was super easy with my own recipe for homemade chalky paint.
There is everything from wood working to wall hangings, vintage pieces and sea shell crafts.
I am excited to share them with you.
I KNOW you are going to love it as much as I do! You can read parts 1, 2 here and here. You won’t want to miss out…
It was a crazy busy and fun year. With packing, moving, unpacking and re configuring a new (to me) cottage apartment in the desert, family vacations, traveling and then the Christmas season my year was jam packed.
My brain and creativity are already moving full force with fresh, new and clean ideas. Not only home decor, but for design, keeping myself healthy and working on goals for a better lifestyle. I will be telling you more about that soon.
For now let’s look at the Top Ten Seasonal DIY Craft and Decor Ideas for you, your home and family.
Even though the cottage back porch is small, with just a few thrifted finds and ingenuity I was able to Create an Inviting Back Porch.
With some vintage family pieces and a few thrifted finds the dining room table is ready for Christmas in the cottage apartment.
Designing this table is part of the Thrifty Style Team this month. I always look forward to the second Friday of each month. It’s when a talented group of bloggers gather and share their thrifty ideas, decor and DIY projects.
If you would like to see Part One, visit here.
I am actually going to make this series into to 4 or 5 parts. Only because I have so much to share.
I may have mentioned that we have family that lives in Virginia. I have been blessed enough to have visited them several times, now. I love seeing the grand-babies and exploring while I am there. Everything from historical monuments, gardens, cemeteries, plus lots of antique stores and beautiful restaurants.
Yes, part one, because there is SO much to see. I literally could spend hours upon hours there. And I think you could, too.
It’s always a treat when I can find a piece of furniture at a steal of a deal. It makes my heart skip a beat, without a doubt. Especially when I can spy something in the dumpster! I know, I am THAT person. You can read about how I found this amazing chair (pictured below) here.
Not only is it a new piece, but I found it for a steal of a deal!
You KNOW how much I love me a great thrifted find, as you can see here. And if there is a way I can incorporate them in my home decor, I sure will.
I am excited to share them with you. And I am also looking forward to hearing about what keeps you peaceful, too. As you are reading, keep in mind the things or activities that give you comfort, too.
Maybe not the best picture quality, but you can see my excitement! Wow, I have so much more space! It felt like a mansion in comparison.
I like this time of month because I get to be a part of the At Home DIY Challenges. We have a theme every 15th of the month and share our best DIY projects related to the theme. This month is: “Make it Pretty Outdoor Challenge”
That is EXACTLY why I am tidying up our back porch and showing you my DIY projects for this space…
It’s also the 2nd Wednesday of the month, so it’s time for the Thrifty Style Team to share their incredible and thrifty decorating ideas. It is always a treat to see what everyone comes up with. I will have all the links to their projects listed below.
Each one is perfect for any style or taste.
I do use a lot of fresh flowers. Mostly from the grocery store or my condo complex. Hey, the least inexpensive, the better, right?
