Table Makeover

11/30/2012 By Bre

30 Nov

Today I'm going to share with you our dining room table makeover.I actually painted it this time last year, but never got around to posting it.With holidays upon us it's easy to get wrapped upinto "needing" a new table set, dinnerware, and entertaining sets.So instead of turning those wants into needs,lets make the best of what we have,and remember to be thankful to have a table set to being with.{And if you don't, by all means go out an get one... if you can :) }You might be familiar with how our dining room table currently looks:It didn't always look this way. In fact most of the time I covered it with a table cloth,because I honestly couldn't stand it!It wasn't the color, ...

Well, I always struggled with an "About Me" pagesince I started the blog.Not that I didn't want you guys to know me better,but seriously,I always struggle with writing about myself!"Can some one else do this one for me?"I debated it,but then thought it still might not come across as me :)So I finally did it.You will notice a new tab at the top of the home page{About Me}where I give you a little a lot of tiny tidbitsof who I am and what I like.The amazing Stephanie ofPrinceton House Photographywas kind enough to take some recent photos of me,because what is an About page,without a recent photo.And since having the kids, I'm always behind the camera,not in front of it!So that was ...

So, you would have to know my daughter and her obsession with bling.i.e. anything sparkly, colorful, and preferably wearable.We are talking about jewelry people,and yes she isn't even 2 yet,but the obsession began long ago.She calls any and all jewelry "pretty"as a noun not an adjective.Needless to say she is in love with my latest project.I first saw this idea on Pinterest,and have basically wanted to make one ever since. If you follow me on Instagram than you've seen this photo:LOVEI painted the frames white, and stapled chicken wire to the inside of them.simple.quick.fabulousI created two smaller ones to hold my earrings,and I used the larger one to hold my larger ...
