  Sifting through Pinterest, as usual, I kept coming across all of these painted wood flags; they all looked so pretty & perfect, but honestly, who wants to nail a bunch of boards together? I’m not a big fan of that. So I took the easy way out. I went to the farm and pickedContinue reading “American Flag Pallet”

This is one of my favorite things that I’ve made thus far! I really love personalized stuff so I was really excited about making this, and it was pretty easy! I bought the blank outdoor rug at Wal-Mart. All I did was tape together the stencils to spell out Rowlett and put them on theContinue reading “Personalized Door Mat”

I guess I’m officially growing up….like seriously growing up…my friends are having babies now…ON PURPOSE! It’s a weird thing when a friend has a baby & you’re not to that stage in your life yet. Not that I don’t want kids, I’m just not married yet and not that financially stable. So one of theContinue reading “Diaper Cake”

My sister-in-law, Shanna, gave me a gift card to Hobby Lobby for Christmas and I certainly put it to good use right away! I used my new gift card, which was burning a hole in my wallet, to buy the supplies I needed for this giant snowflake! I am very swift about taking down myContinue reading “Snowflake Wreath”

It took me forever not just to write this blog, but to make the wreath too. The wreath was super easy to make, but I didn’t have ribbon to make the bow like I thought I did so the whole project got put on hold for weeks until I finally remembered to get ribbon! StartContinue reading “Christmas Ornament Wreath”

Who loves Christmas??? I LOVE CHRISTMAS!! Now as much as I love all things Christmas & Christmas decor, I am a firm believer in waiting until after Thanksgiving to put up a tree or any decorations! I have made several Christmas things in the past month or so, but my decorations didn’t go up untilContinue reading “Candy Cane Window Decor”

This is another one of those personalized things that I love and it’s so cute! I bought the wooden letter unfinished off Ebay from the seller Woodcraft Patterns They have tons of unfinished wood items and letters in different fonts! My R is 16 inches. Since Andrew is a farmer then of course our R had toContinue reading “Initial Door Hanger”

Yes, this is yet again another wreath, but I’m almost all caught up with them! This wreath was really hard and time consuming, but I’m pretty sure that anyone with a little more patience and creativity (and less wild dogs) than I have could do a much better job! I used newspaper and A LOTContinue reading “Newspaper Halloween Wreath”

I do have an obsession with wreaths, and I’m not sorry for this! I waited to post a lot of these things mainly because I forgot to, but it’s also a good thing because I learned some things while making them that didn’t work that I can now discuss! So this burlap wreath was reallyContinue reading “Burlap Halloween Wreath”
