Happy Friday everyone! We have had kids visiting form Oregon here all week. It has been a lot of fun with grandkiddos here. The giggles and snuggles are the best.
But today I wanted to show you my new living room furniture. It gives our home a New Living Room Look.
This is what it used to look like.
Here is a sneak peek of something new to change our New Living Room Look.

Happy Thursday! And welcome to Themed Furniture Makeover Day. It is one of my favorite posts each month. Several bloggers have a theme, choose a piece of furniture and do their interpretation of the theme. This month’s theme is small tables.

I have been infatuated with the whole idea of How To Make Your Own Vintage Sign for awhile now. I even shared a post 2 years ago about 12 Homemade Signs. I had found each one of them on Pinterest.
After a few years I decided it was time for me to make my own vintage sign. It is a knock off of the ones I found on Pinterest. Of course, I added my own twist, but it looks amazing for our home.
Not only that…But, several of my blogging friends have knocks offs of their own. I can’t wait to see what they have come up with. Their knock off creations will be listed in the bottom of this post.
Here is a quick peek at my sign. Can you say love???
