Vintage Old Glory

This vintage 1940's postcard is so regal.

And the poem on the back is priceless:

OUR FLAG

Red is for fervent courage and zeal

White is for purity, cleanness of life,

Blue is for loyalty and friendship's devotion,

Justice and truth against malice and strife.

Happy 4th of July!

White living room transformation

This is a post about overcoming fear....

Fear of going for all white furniture....

With a family of 3 cats, 2 kids and 1 sports watching husband...

a couch has to do a lot of work...

But, last month, after much deliberation...I just pulled the plug...

and haven't looked back since.

Easy Burlap Ribbon Votive Project

I love all the new printed Burlap ribbon that is on the market now.

There are so many ways to use it.

Last month I showed you how I used a small piece to accent a wine tote gift bag.

Today I am using it to dress up glass candle holders.

Room Makeover-layering

This is a story about a room....

That started as a blank slate....

Nailhead Corkboard project

Memo-boards...

Can you have enough of them?

I love using them for tucking in all the photos and 

special things that happen throughout a year...

The Flea Affaire 2014

I am so excited!

I get to be a 

"shabby-chic-vintage-country-cottage-junk-lady" 

this weekend!

After going to The Flea Affaire last year, 

I decided to support the cause with a booth I am sharing with two other women.  

Check out my blog post from last year (here).

Can't wait to show you what it will look like 

and looking forward to a fun day tomorrow selling my "wares".

You know what they say...one woman's "junk" is another one's treasure! 

Have a great weekend!
