Lora recently posted about using stickers and a canvas to make wall art. While Lora took an existing piece of art and used it as the base of her project, I decided to start with a blank white 12 x 12 canvas (like this one here). This book is special to me as my high …
My little boy (he mostly just supervised) and I did a little craft project the other night while Mike was out for the evening. I was inspired by this song from Gungor, which we sang in church Sunday morning: “You make beautiful things You make beautiful things out of the dust You make beautiful things …
Lately, I’ve found myself pinning images with these Black Marquee Letters. Such a cool, graphic way to label the In & Out baskets in an office. If you haven’t seen this little Black & White Office from Thistlewood FarmsIt is lovely – and she lives in Kentucky – so that makes her that much more …
When it comes to decorating, I love things that are vintage and feminine. One of my favorite things to decorate with is milk glass. I love its simple, clean design and I love the feminine touch it adds to a space. I loved the idea of putting my make-up brushes in a holder in order …
While shopping at a Flea Market here in Lexington (the same day I found my Botanical Chart print), I came across this cool stone mold of Kentucky. In case you’re questioning your geography skills (or mine) — yes, the state is backwards — because it is a mold. It cost me $9 which is more …

Earlier this week I shared some inspiration for my entry. This is one of my favorites: I especially love that rug. I have always wanted to try out some of the painted rug tutorials I have seen on Pinterest & around the Blogosphere. So since I’m working on my entry, and love this photo of …
I previously wrote a post on decorating goals back in January, you can check it out here. Today, I am going to give an update on how my office/craft room area is coming along. Crossed off on the list below are the items that I have completed so far and what items I still want …
Hello, March! It’s hard to believe we are in the 3rd month of 2013 already, isn’t it? While we were posting all about Anthro Love during February, I’ve been working on my first home project for 2013 – our entry way. I’m so excited to start sharing the projects with you! There are really two …
While searching for items to use in our Anthro Love series, Lora sent me these napkins to check out! I love polka dots and bright colors so this was the perfect combination! To re-create these, I started with a 4-pack of bright colored napkins from Target’s Room Essential’s brand. To create the gold polka dot …
I think these colorful bud vases from Anthropologie are so fresh and sweet for spring. While completing the YHL Macklemore Challenge with Erica, I came across this flower pin. It immediately reminded me of those cute Anthro bud vases. So I added a colorful vase to my shopping list, and found it in the same …
I love chalkboards so naturally these adorable chalkboard jars at Anthropologie caught my eye. I’ve been working on my office area recently and I thought these jars would be great to hold paper clips and other small office supplies. You could definitely also use these in the kitchen for spices or in kids rooms to …
Mike & I are working on a project for our Entry that has been in the back of our minds for a long time, and I can’t wait to show it you. (UPDATE: Go here to see how we used the Animal Push Pins) However, for now, I’ll just share these fun little animal push …
I love wall art but so often it is out of my budget. While browsing Anthropologie, I came across this fun one of a kind drawing. I loved how colorful it was but the $600 price tag was definitely not an option. Recently, I decided to pull out my old pastels and canvases and make …
Erica spotted this Soapstone Globe on Anthroplogie, and she sent me the link right away. I love anything globe or map related, and already have a small globe collection in our living room. However, the price tag on Anthro’s version comes in at $368 – yikes. If I was going to own this globe, it …
