I've been a little crazy about numbers in 2012. See my post here for details on my number fixation. So, when I needed to buy a new lamp shade for our family-room-turned-game-room, my first thought was to add some numbers to this plain ol' faux burlap shade. Since the boys have taken over this room with their video gaming marathons, I wanted it to be a little whimsical and modern. I'll be honest, this room has been largely ignored as far as decorating is concerned. It used to be a hideout for … [Read more...] about DIY Letter Lamp Shade

DIY Feed Sack Curtains
First of all... let me just say I want a new kitchen. Badly. My kitchen was likely remodeled by previous owners in the 80s. Blonde, low-quality stock cabinets that don't all match.

DIY Decor: Home Office
Here's a quick (and I mean like 10 minutes tops) project. I was with a friend at a flea market recently and she was picking out some vintage book pages. I love typography and thought this would make a great addition to my home office. I already had an empty 8x10 photo frame. I simply used my Silhouette cameo to create a scalloped matte from scrapbook card stock. If you don't have a machine like this, you could skip the scallops and simple cut a rectangle to frame your book page … [Read more...] about DIY Decor: Home Office
