Lovely Posts From the Week

Saturday, September 22, 2012


I am in desperate need of some paint organization! There is a very small amount of paint in some of my gallon containers, but I can't throw it away (there are going to be some paint touch ups in the future). I love this idea from iHeart Organizing, and I am sure I will be doing this very soon! 


I absolutely love the pop of color on these glasses. The DIY looks so easy! Check it out on BRIT+CO. I may have to make some of these little beauties. This would be a great way to dress up some dollar store glasses. 


DIY chalkboard paint...yes please! I am more than a little addicted to chalkboard paint (if you don't believe me ask my refrigerator)! I don't think Dane would have let me paint the fridge turquoise, but this shade is beautiful! What should I paint next? 

Okay...clearly I had paint on my mind when I wrote this post. I may have to tackle some of these fun DIYs in the next couple of weeks.

Little Owl

Wednesday, April 25, 2012

There has always been this little owl on one of the posts in our backyard. It was painted white and blended in with the white wood. However, every time I looked out the backdoor I noticed this little owl looking back. So the other day I got a litte help from Dane and we took him down! Don't worry, I put him back up there...but not before giving him a coat of paint. I am really enjoying the turquoise that I used on my planters. So...my little owl friend got painted a pretty turquoise. 


Once he was dry I put him back in his spot. Now he doesn't seem to be hiding. I like to think that this little piece has some kind of a story. I am sure that he severed some sort of purpose at one time, but I am not sure what that purpose is.


For now his purpose is adding a bit of lovely to our back yard.
