a birdcage for my wall

March 7, 2011 by Kellie

a birdcage for my wall

As mentioned last week, here’s the play by play of how I re-worked the bird cage.  It’s a little whimsy & a whole lotta Spring in my book. When we bought our house, a lot of crap was left behind. Literally. So gross. It was falling apart sitting up high on our porch. It’s not perfect…

So My Walls Can Talk Part 3 ~ His first words

So excited & nervous {Eeeek!} to show everyone part 3 of my project So My Walls Can Talk.  Part 3 has been in the making for 2+ years.  I can’t believe it’s finally done.  I realize that subway art has taken off all over.  But this was designed “in my head” before subway art exploded.  There…

“Gobbling” for Goodwill, garage sales & some other great ideas

August 25, 2010 by Kellie

Re purposing

To say that I am naturally drawn to re purposing objects is an understatement.  I love seeing how creative people can be in their mind & decorating skills to re purpose something.  You can see re purposing everywhere now.  Maybe for money issues, or perhaps people just like to recycle, or for the pleasure of finding true treasure from yard/estate sales. …

All *Wrapped* Up.

November 6, 2009 by Kellie

from here I have given myself a two week goal. And I will need everyday of the two weeks to organize my wrapping paper/office/craft supplies. I am lucky to have a itty bitty room that I call my office & craft room. If you can image a 10X10 A-framed loft style room, then you have…

Tales from Hwy 127 Yard Sale

August 10, 2009 by Kellie

We did it! The three of us went on the big hunt for treasures. Shopped, ate, talked, snacked, slept (the twins) all while we found & missed some treasures. All in all we had a great time. I was glad just to be there, and surprisingly found some great pieces. Enough to keep me busy…

The Longest Yard Sale or Bust!

August 3, 2009 by Kellie

They say it’s the longest one. You may recall me talking about this last year. We couldn’t go…we had two new babies in the house. But this year…I’m going! Honestly, I don’t have high expectations, but I have made a list of a few things I will be on the look out for: a vintage…
