Confessions of a Thrift Store Virgin

Heart speak· Thrifty finds

Getting up at 6am (by choice) is not my cup of tea, or should I say coffee (extra strong please). As a result, yard sale-ing is not on my list of favorite things "to do". I have several friends who are avid yard salers and score some amazing things. But, I'm lazy. There, I said it. L~A~Z~Y. I've driven by the store for 15 years.

bead board· Before/After· DIY· remodel

We are currently in the process of redecorating our master bathroom in our new home. Well, by new, I mean we've been here 2 1/2 years. That's still new, right? Anyhoo, that's a work in progress that hopefully will be completed soon and then I will share it with you all! The house we moved from 2 yrs. ago was a very small, 1949 Cape Cod. It had charm and character that goes without saying in those older homes, but some rooms just... oh, how would you say.... grated on me like nails on a chalk ...
