We have had a set of 6 dining room chairs sitting in our shed for ages. A little thought popped into my head after my blogging pals and I set a Patio/Outdoor Project for this months Inspired Makers Challenge. After our recent front porch makeover, the back patio has been screaming for some attention too! […]
It is a wonderful thing to know that my family and friends totally “get me”. They go about their day and sometimes stop to grab things that they see on the side of the road if they think I can do something with them. This was the case with these two wooden breakfast bar chairs. […]
If you have been following me for a while you know that I don’t like seeing things go to waste! This sure was the case for this project. Sometimes when I find a piece of furniture, get it home and clean it up it’s not in the best shape! That’s when the creative juices get […]
My very sweet parents in law are always on the look out for furniture for me to make over. This one was hiding in their shed, so they didn’t have to go to far this time! It was covered in lots of good old country dust and cobwebs! There was even a giant wasps nest […]

Every now and again I stumble across a bargain! This sure was the case for this old telephone table. It was sitting underneath a larger table at my local thrift shop, looking all lonesome. Originally I didn’t see it!! I always like to do a second wander around when shopping in case I miss things! […]
For a recent makeover in my Daughters room, we were short on a side table. So rather than having to go out and buy one I really wanted to try and use things that I already had. She had an old square basket that had a flip top lid which she used as a laundry […]
Who else loves working with old pallets? There is just something about tearing a pallet apart and then putting it back together in a different form! My love for pallets all started because I needed to fix a bathroom dilemma! After admiring some really cool bath caddy’s in shopping catalogues but with a BIG price tag, […]
Recently a few of my blogging pals and I decided to set ourselves a challenge! The challenge being to give one of the rooms in our homes a $100 makeover! Gasp…. you say….$100 really doesn’t go a long way…. impossible! I’m here to say that it is possible and can be done very easily when […]
After giving my Vintage Chalkboard Suitcase a new look I seem to have gotten the itch to keep going with more of my dated furniture. This cabinet was originally in our main bathroom when the kids were growing up. It housed all the safe things like bandages, band-aids and cotton buds. So today I am sharing my repurposed […]
Recently some sweet blogging friends and I decided to challenge each other to try and give a room in our homes a makeover for $100!
