Family name tiles


My newest craft to make and sell. I just started selling them on my local craigslist and now we made a website for all my family signs and tiles. These are my first 2 ever. One is a white tile and the other is a tan.

It turns out that these are wanted for Christmas gifts so I now have an order for 5 more.

Sign makeover

A old shabby chic sign turned into a shine new blog themed sign.

I love the shape of this sign but I am not a shabby chic / detressed kind of people. I like shine and new looking. So I sanded and spray painted it a high gloss leather brown. I put vinyl on it with my blog name.

Back Door

Dining room change

This is the dining room decor before. I was not happy about the plates.


So I got these candle holders.
I bought a piece of scrapbook paper and cut it to size to fit inside the glass.
