knitted chunky heart pillows

When I was in high school, I used to sit in my dorm common room (I went to boarding school), knit sweaters and watch Days of Our Lives. Today I went back to my knitting routes and made these fun chunky heart pillows for Valentine’s Day. Want to see how?

oversized queen of hearts art

I have always loved the classic design of the King, Jack, and Queen. What better artwork to make for Valentine’s Day than a giant colorful Queen of Hearts! But how are we going to get that tiny playing card into a big ol’ frame on the wall? Read on… here’s how!

dollar tree floral wreath

There’s a Dollar Tree up the road that I’d never been to but it was around the corner from both a Home Depot and a Walmart so I figured bing bang boom… get it all taken care of at once. Folks… that Dollar Tree had EVERYTHING! I came out with so many ideas and lots of fun craft supplies including this fun floral wreath!

penny tile valentine's trivet

Last time I was at the Restore I saw a few sheets of penny tiles which lead me to this idea for a cute Valentine’s day tray/ trivet! I grabbed a sheet of white penny tile and a sheet of red penny tile at Home Depot and turned them into this sweet Valentine’s Day tray.

There are lots of ways I can describe what I do, b There are lots of ways I can describe what I do, but today... was not one of them. Today I painted a robotic rubber fish named Billy and spent more time than I care to share styling and photographing her. She joined my gallery wall of ladies. And then she nestled in amongst my vintage pink glass. I believe design and decorating and making should be... fun. I believe it’s therapeutic to be silly every once in a while. I believe it takes practice not to take ourselves too seriously. So if painting a $4 fish is what I share with the world today, I’m OK with that. Now for the most important question though... where do you like Billy the most? In the first photo with my portrait ladies or in the second photo looking into the new  improved dining room.? Leave me a comment and let me know!

This foyer is slowly coming together. Foyer table. This foyer is slowly coming together. Foyer table. Check. Artwork. Check. A sneak peek of a project I’ll share tomorrow. Check. And now the PERFECT foyer light!! Checkity check check! Isn’t it the most beautiful thing (aside from your offspring or like sunset over the Serengeti) you’ve ever seen?! One of my favorite parts about owning a home again is that I can bounce between each space and add a little something here and a little something there. Don’t worry... I have plans for these gray walls and that banister. But all in good time!! Thanks to @mymitzi for putting up with my indecision... the first light they sent was a little too small and is now up in our closet. This one is magnificent. #gifted

Do you see anything new in this picture?? I’ll t Do you see anything new in this picture?? I’ll talk more about our recovered chairs with gifted @fabricut fabric tomorrow, but they’re too good not to share immediately! Thanks to all of you for your kind DMs today. I think I said it on my stories, but the irony of being in a creative field is that the same gift of inspiration I get from so many other designers can sometimes bring on self doubt. The same design accounts that motivate me to try new things and step outside of my comfort zone also bring up insecurity. The feelings always subside and I remember how amazing you all and how much I love what I do... but thank you for always being my sweet cheering squad!

If you saw my stories then you know that I have so If you saw my stories then you know that I have some bigger projects coming up and this room is getting a makeover. Naturally I want it to be done immediately, but I’m afraid I need to pick up a few supplies and *ahem* prep a little bit but hoping to start the day after tomorrow. Unless a design squirrel runs by and I chase that and decide to upholster a chair or hang a gallery wall or install my new foyer runner. I envy folks who can plan out their projects for the month and move through them in an organized and measured fashion. I have an invisible magic DIY 8 ball that I essentially shake each morning and decide what I want to take on. Thankfully I have lots of options but who’s to say what I’ll feel like doing tomorrow. Will it be a rug? Wallpaper? Organize? (Or just sit and watch dogs on TikTok with a cup of coffee and a bag of cheetos?) Stay tuned!

For about $25 in materials, I made myself a lamp. For about $25 in materials, I made myself a lamp. Did I need a lamp? Nope. Was it fun to turn a terra cotta wine carafe into a cool sculptural lamp? Yep!! I love the process of figuring out a project. What supplies to use. What problems to solve. Every experiment informs the next creation. I learn something about my tools. About the materials. I guess it’s the overall wonder and discovery that I love most about making anything! Unless it involves upholstery or sewing. Both of those can cause cursing and evoke less love.
