May 9, 2014 By Meegan 1 Comment

It’s Field Trip Friday with Nancy from Artsy Chicks Rule!  It’s a real treat to have Nancy here today.

Nancy is more than talented. She can transform furniture, make crafts, and has a beautiful blog full of inspiration.  Take it away, Nancy…

Hi Everyone!

I’m so happy to be here today to share a bit about myself and my blog.
Thank you so much for inviting me Meegan!

My name is Nancy and I am a mother of 2 and wife to one fabulous guy.
I write a blog called Artsy Chicks Rule about my love of DIY, design & decor on a budget.
I love re-inventing thrifty finds, making signs & graphics and a little bit of everything else.
My husband and I have been DIY-ers for many years.

Here’s one example of a DIY project we completed in our home….
Kitchen Before and After Annie Sloan Chalk Paint

You can read more about our home here and see a few room tours here.

I also love doing anything “artsy” and have my entire life.
Which is why, when I started thinking about writing a blog, my husband came up with the name….Artsy Chicks Rule.
He’s called me his “arsty chick” for 25 years so the name was a perfect fit!

My motto – Re.store, Re.style and Re.love.

I’m a thrifty girl. Always have been!
I love a deal…..and I love to decorate on the cheap!

Above all, my favorite thing to do is paint and bring new life to old pieces, either thrifted or those I already own.
I move things from room to room and re-invent things constantly around here.

This Aubusson Blue Chalk Painted Thrift Store Dresser  is one of my all time favorites.
This also happens to be one of my favorite colors in the Annie Sloan Chalk Paint line.

Another DIY is this tile back splash I completed in less than 24 hours with the help of this super fabulous product.

 I also love signs and graphics and love “writing” on everything. Well, almost everything. ;)
