a DIY deer silhouette canvas

I was recently in touch with the folks over at 3M who make ScotchBlue painter's tape. They wanted to send me a few rolls and see what kind of projects I could get up to. Well, I thought it would be fun to do a week of DIY artwork using the tape. It's always nice to add original artwork to your home, right? And using painter's tape? How easy-peasy is that? The three projects I'm going to share this ... View the Post

project nursery: a DIY raindrop mobile

What would a baby's room be without a mobile, right? As you could guess, I was itching to DIY something. I did some thinking about the theme of the room and gave myself a good helping of inspiration from other people's projects on Pinterest. My two starting points: I knew I wanted to do the stick idea after I saw my sister-in-law's versions for her kiddos (see them in their house tour here), ... View the Post

I grabbed a bunch of ribbon in my room colours (pinks, turquoise, gold ... View the Post

How perfect is that?   Plant Seed Party Favors Supplies First up you need to collect your supplies. We were estimating about 30 guests, so I picked up 15 packages of basil seeds (I ... View the Post

the DIY files: gold dipped vases

So you saw on Friday my refreshed little gold lamp. Well, I wasn't done with the gold spray paint! I had 3 vases sitting in our cupboard that I use pretty regularly for grocery store flowers (I'm getting into the routine of buying the cheapest bouquet I can find and then splitting them up around the house - it's so cheery!). Anyway, the vases were pretty plain and I thought could use a little ... View the Post
