Did you know that my original intention with the DIY Link Party was to have it go up on Wednesday night or early Thursday morning? Ha! It seems that life just doesn’t allow for that around here…yesterday I was out bowling with the kids and then I stained the window boxes (more on that later!), [...]
The sun is shining! The sun is shining! Which means we are hard at work outside…so here are our favourites from last week’s link party! Satori Design for Living made some lovely progress on their back decks! _____ Painted Therapy created a beautiful tv corner! _____ From Gardners 2 Bergers created a fab knock-off! [...]
All right all you Canucks, this weekend is May 2-4! That means it’s time for DIY projects, gardens, highway traffic jams and the real beginning of summer! And for our American neighbours south of the border, I know that next weekend is your May long weekend. So the same goes for you I suppose! Typically [...]
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 [...]

But just a little something-something, you know? So, as I’m working on Spring Decor (the mantle is going to be great!), a mini [...]

The BirdHouse painted the very same lamps we bought at Homesense a bright cheerful turquoise. WOW! LOVE you talented peeps! Now it’s your turn!!! [...]
Welcome to our second Thrifting. Organizing. DIYing. Link Party! We had a few beautiful links last week (spread the word about the party, pretty please!). You are a brilliant bunch! One of my favourites was My Life as a Mrs. Gallery Wall and Wall of Shelves: Excellent storage and so pretty too! Another favourite of [...]
Silly me, trying to finish several projects at once! Oh, wait. What else is new?! I decided this throw pillow cover that I started a couple of weeks ago would go better in our bedroom than the living room. So I’m determined to sew the back and zipper on her today and move her in. [...]
After a busy {but FUN!} long weekend away in Niagara Falls, we don’t have any new projects to report…at least not today. Instead we will share what we came up with after briefly rearranging the living room (we have friends coming to visit this weekend…Am I the only one who feels the desire to give guests something new to look [...]
