One of the top asked questions that people email me about is how to make chalk paint. So today's the day to explain! Let's talk about chalk paint, shall we? Not chalkboard paint that you can write on with chalk,…

Hi Friends!! I literally feel like I just sat down to write last week's Tuesday's Treasures. No lie... where did this week go?? It was a whirl wind! Which is usually what happens after taking time off to go to…

Outstanding weekend here friends! I went to the Hope Spoken conference in Dallas, Texas and had an amazing time. I promise to share more about it soon, but time is tight from being away so I'm keeping today's post short.…

How are you all doing? Despite ANOTHER snow storm here in NY, the temps have made there way up a bit so we all feel like there may be hope that spring is going to come after all. And something…

Hi Friends! This just in! My almost 6 year old son announced at the dinner table this week that he has a girlfriend. Oh boy... here we go. Lol, I was hoping for a good 10 years or more before…

Hi Friends! Ok, it's cold. Still cold. I was lacking inspiration about what to write about today. Not because I don't have anything fun to share, but I'm in that winter slump. Who else is feeling that way? Everyone I…

Hi Friends! Last week was school break and I remember two things... How much I love hanging with my kids during the day AND how hard it is to get everything done when the kids are home. I had so…

Hi Friends! Thanks to everyone who stopped by last week to check out our Broken Down Black Buffet makeover. This week's makeover wasn't as hard, but it came from the same owner... Linda, and it too needed work. I think…

Hi Friends! I wanted to quickly show you before and after picture of a dresser set that we just posted on our Furniture For Sale page! You can check out the set or individual pricing on that page. Update! SET…

Hi All! Sometimes repairing a furniture piece can cost more than buying something brand new and it can be more work than if you just built something from scratch. This buffet was one of those pieces. Linda reached out to…

As a blogger sometimes it's hard to stay balanced and real. To show the good and the not so good. I don't want people to get the impression that everything is always perfect here but I also don't want to…

Hello from the busy, boisterous FunCycled world. It's been another crazy week where I did more traveling and home decorating for my friend Marcie. Please feel bad for me, I had to leave warm sunny Florida and return home to single…

Good morning friends! How was your week? Since I was out of town a week ago, this past week was hectic to say the least. It's been so fun though. I promised you new pieces, but I put them on…

Hi!!  How's 2014 treating you all so far? I feel like it's been a month since last week's Tuesday's Treasures. I flew out to Michigan to help my friend Sarah pick paint colors and decorations for her new home. And…

Last week I showed you all of the post popular furniture posts in 2013 as voted by you (page views)! This week I thought I would share my favorite furniture makeovers of 2013. Only one actually made it on both lists,…

Hi! Thanks for stopping by despite how busy I'm sure you all are right now!! We've been equally busy here with lots of custom furniture orders, interior painting, home staging and color consults. I'm seriously loving all the different things…

Good morning friends! The hustle and bustle of the holiday season is definitely here. For that reason, I have to keep this Tuesday's Treasures a little shorter than normal. Not to mention, I have to get my quarterly taxes done…

Hi Friend!! I hope you all had a family or friend filled Thanksgiving day. Ours was definitely that with 14 members of my family around the dinner table. The more families I meet, the more thankful I am for mine.…
