Thanks to Nikki from Days Gone Design, I have all of these amazing cards and

~Trash To Treasure~ Sideboard love


Here is an old sideboard that I have had stashed in our shed
for too long and finally decided on the color.
I used a creamy white color by Valspar and sealed it with poly.

Here is what it looked like before:

The top was not good.....

And here she is...

I love how it turned out and will be using it for a jewelry display at a
local art studio which I will be blogging about soon.

I have also used the original knobs which are a rustic black color,
perfect for the look I am going for.

Have a safe and wonderful Memorial weekend!

~Antique Jewelry Holder~


Using a few treasures I picked up at Junk Bonanza last fall, I made this
simple jewelry display.

Using a sturdy screw, my husband drilled the antique muffin tin
into the top of the candle holder.






Super easy!!

~Trash To Treasure~


We have been talking about how much our 7 year old needs a dresser so......
I stopped at a garage sale the other day and spotted this old dresser that needed a little tlc.
I paid $25 for it and turned it around with some left over paint and some new brushed nickel knobs from the local hardware store.



Before...mismatched knobs and out dated.


My 7 year old, helping me sand off the drawer fronts.



And VOILA, here it is!


Have a great day!
