Yesterday we shared our Fall Table & Dining Room, so we thought it would be fun to go outside and show you our fall front porch. Well, it’s really more of an old-fashioned stoop. A set of concrete steps with a very small landing. Only slightly covered by an old metal awning. You get the idea. I [...]
Ah burlap, how we love thee. {Have we mentioned that before?} A little while ago we made a burlap-wrapped canvas to display some sentimental treasures in our bedroom. Last week we whipped up a painted burlap banner. We tied burlap to our ladder-back chairs for Easter and used it as a runner under our centerpiece. Now [...]
Last fall we shared our crazy simple DIY fall burlap banner. Let me just say for the record (again!) that I am a big fan of burlap. Like LOVE it. Only not for pillows or chairs or anything I have to touch often. I prefer cozy for that. But I love how burlap looks. Anyway [...]

For a table runner… For an I DO banner… And for a ring bearer pillow… LURVE!!!! Congrats on your wedding Natasha and hubby Scott! [...]
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere I go! I know, I know. I need to apologize to our American readers. You haven’t even had Thanksgiving yet. But we just couldn’t wait. (If you want to go back and look at our fall and Thanksgiving posts, we’ll understand. They’re here, here, here , [...]
Hi there! How are you doing? We are uncharacteristically exhausted here. In between sanding, painting, staining and poly-ing the “new” dining table and six chairs we haven’t managed to squeeze in many smaller projects. Honestly if you follow us on facebook or twitter you know this dining room project has been kicking our butts! But [...]
