An Easy Farmhouse decorative Ladder To Make

Welcome! So nice of you to stop in. If you follow along you know that we love to repurpose items especially wooden items. I had a stash of chair rings, nice and chippy. Also a stash of 1 x3 5ft. Pieces of wood.




Simply just fit the ring in the interior of the wood and screw together. 

Just a simple star  Some faux greenery, and a vintage rusty hand beater.

The ladder can be used to drape your throws over, just a bit of imagination.

Thanks for stopping in,
Happy creating!

Brown Grocer Bag Crafted Into A Wreath

Hi there, happy your here. Wondering how many of you shop at a grocery that offers brown grocer bags? I do some shopping at Aldis,  they offer paper or plastic. If you have followed along in the past posts you know that I have made such cool stuff from brown paper bags.

I have been crushing on the magnolia leave wreaths. So I got busy cutting and gluing.  I would say that  this craft is very easy to do.




 First, cut the leaves, they dont all have to be exactly  the same. I think I cut up about 4bags.

 I had an old hay foam wreath that I used as a base. If I didnt use that I was planning on cutting a huge circle and then cut out the middle.
 I used hot glue to attach them. Just be sure they are all facing the same way.
Add enough so it's nice and full. When its complete you can spray paint them green or whatever color you like. I chose to just add a bit of white shading and some lambs ear and berries.

So next time you have a choice of paper or plastic pick paper and have some crafting fun!


                   Thanks so much for stopping in,
                         Happy crafting!

Autumn Kitchen starring red, welcome, Come on in!

Welcome, Its that season when colors are vibrant and warm. Hot drinks soothe the sole. Fireside conversations lead to melted chocolate and marshmallows hugged by Graham crackers! So today I share many kitchen changes I have said goodbye to Teal and hello to red. I have changed my drop leaf table out for a vintage "greenbean table", meaning this ole table sat field side with grama cleaning the freshly picked green beans.  So in a sense is a farm table. The new red top sets he stage for the kitchen. I ave included lots of repurposed items, painted items ,  thrift store finds all in the name of fun.





 This large rooster carving was a goodwill find.
