So I've been dreaming of a wood headboard for about a year (or two) now and picked up a few pallets last summer with the intention of pulling them apart and using them as a headboard. The only problem is that pallets are notoriously hard to take apart and I am a chicken about using the reciprocating saw. I kept waiting for my hubby to cut them all apart, but he works so hard that the last thing he wanted to do at the end of the day was dismantle a bunch of pallets, so they just continued to ...

Planked Headboard in the Master Bedroom
Easy LOVE Blocks
This is one of those projects that I have been wanting to make for about 100 years, but just never got around to doing. With one of my 2014 goals being to do 12 Pinterest pins I figured that I should bite the bullet and get it done! I was lacking in Valentine's Day decor and so I figured this was the perfect opportunity to kill two birds with one stone! It all started with some 2x4 pieces that I had lying around. I am not really sure where they originated, but somehow they made there way into a ... Read the Post

Upcycled Shutter Photo Display
Hello everyone! I have been working really hard on cleaning out and organizing my craft room and I am a little bit embarrassed to tell you that one of the things I have found is that most of the mess has been caused by unfinished projects!

I made one of these photo displays for my sister in law for Christmas in 2011 and then ... Read the Post
You A-MAZE me Printable Valentines
Last week I shared an easy printable Valentine using pencils from the dollar store and today I am back with another quick and easy printable Valentine! The same day I was there picking up a pack of pencils I saw these cute little heart shaped mazes and knew that something a-maze-ing could be done with them!

Sponsored Posts and What They Mean to Me
Hello! I wanted to take a minute to talk about something that's been on my mind. One of my goals for 2014 was to double my blog. Double the followers, the comments, the community and...double the income. I love the fact that I wake my kids up every morning and make them breakfast. I love that I get to take them to school and then pick them up at the end of the day. I love that I am able to make a home cooked meal every. single. night. I am hoping that once the littlest is in school (3 1/2 years ... Read the Post
