For a while now I’ve been swooning over all the beautiful mid century furniture that’s been showing up all over the place. Unfortunately it’s all pretty pricey. And we all know what I do when I don’t want to pay for something…I make it myself. Mid-Century Modern style is so clean and simple which made this coffee table super easy to make. I …
Reupholstered Chair
You’ve already kind of seen the finished product of our chair we reupholstered from Pixel’s Watch Me Grow photos, but I wanted to show you more of the process we went through to get this little yellow beauty. Here is the condition we found the poor saggy chair in at Goodwill. The fabric was pretty worn in spots and the caning on the …
DIY Kick
Ever since my parents came and helped me with all those diy projects, I keep coming up with more and more things I want to do. It’s so satisfying making things yourself. I probably should take it one project at a time before I get burnt out. These are on my current to do list. Cork Board Pencil Sweater Aren’t …
Granny Squares
So remember last year when I got all gung ho about knitting? I had all these projects that I wanted to do. What happened with that you ask? Well, not much. I did finish a head band and got about three quarters of the way through one leg warmer; then I got discouraged when I realized I still had another one to …
DIY Weekend

First we reupholstered the yellow chair, then hung up some …

Pixel Gutenberg Bartlett
We got our Dalmatian puppy on Saturday! We didn’t sleep at all on Friday night because we were way too excited to bring him home. He is even more cute and than I could ever have imagined. It feels like we’re proud parents. Pixel has been doing so well too; he is learning how to walk on his leash, go …
The Real “House at Pooh Corner”
via Curbed How many of you grew up with Winnie the Pooh? I certainly did, and so will my kids. A.A. Milne created timeless characters and stories and the home where it all began is for sale. It looks as if it came right out of a storybook. If only I had $3.22 million I would buy it up and live every …
Our Weekend
Once again our weekend flew right by. I wish we had just one more day to get everything done. It was really our first weekend in our new home since last weekend we were in New York. Saturday was mostly spent at Ikea and shopping around for a grill. Now that we have a patio we want to take full …
Finders Keepers: Vecco Custom Rugs
