This Whipped Lavender Sugar Scrub is flecked with real dried lavender, makes your skin feel AWESOME, and is so easy to make, it comes together in about 10 minutes from whipping to jarring!  Perfect for DIY gift giving.

Little cosmetic updates can make such a BIG difference!  Now that our sun room is FINALLY done, I can't wait for some summer thunder storms :)

When my mom texted me a picture of this gorgeous sled, told me her neighbor was going to put it out with the trash, and asked me if i wanted it -- of course my answer was YES!!!  A little bit of TLC and it's now a beautiful Christmas decoration.

A few weeks ago I went to the Hazen Flea Market with my mom, my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law.  I instantly transformed into  a haggling machine.  I'll show you the other three some other day, but in my FIRST "Flea Market Finds" post, I introduce you to my antique copper tub and antique watering can!

With the help of a little patience and a lot of elbow grease, I was able to transform this $14.99 Goodwill special into the perfect craft room desk!

I have been looking for the perfect decorations to hang in our guest room for what seems like forever.  I put in some Goodwill shopping, spray painting, and elbow grease, and ended up with some beautiful frames for the wall!

My kitchen has been in need of some serious decor love, and I have wanted to make framed silverware artwork for a long time (as seen all over Pinterest).  Last week, I finally went to Goodwill over my lunch break in search of supplies to bring this craft to life. 

If you're looking for an amazing, unique and thoughtful homemade Christmas gift idea, you'll want to read this.  Every year for the past several years, two of my coworkers have gotten together to make homemade Christmas gifts for friends and family.  This year, I joined in on the fun (really though, I invited myself along).  We threw around several ideas before deciding on homemade lip balm! 

Having just moved into our first house in July, I found myself SERIOUSLY lacking in Fall decor.  I found a few decorations on the cheap at various stores, but we have a whole house now instead of a 1 bedroom apartment.  So, I hit Pinterest in search of some inspiration and got to work.
