Bringing in the Old..

Today I would like to share with you my headboard in our master bedroom!!! We didn't have one, so I knew I needed to get creative... hmm...and I didn't want to spend anything, so off to the garage I went...

Do you see what I see? No, not the tool box, the wrought iron laying on the floor there!!! My mind is stirring of ideas!!!! Husband beware!!! LOL

I also had a couple of old windows that I got for FREE when I visited my brother in Vegas, so I thought I could try them also.

Here's what I came up with..

I Love it!! So does my Husband. Didn't spend a dime, yipee!! Tell me what you think!

Mini Front Door Makeover

When we moved in our home 6 months ago, our focus was to just get the old carpet removed ( it was gross, full of pet urine ugh!) and didn't really focus at all on the front of the house.

My front door needed a little refreshing, you know a little umph, PIZAZZ!! So I worked on it a little yesterday. Still needs a little more TLC but it is waaaayyyy better.

Here's a couple of before pictures

and here's the New Mini Makeover

I added a burlap bow, and a cute little bird to a wreath that I purchased at Michael's using a 40% off coupon...

And also a fern at my local grocery store

adding a welcome sign makes an inviting entry to your home. I bought this through The House of Smiths.

So, there it is, with just a couple of things and some TLC, It really made for a nice entry, and I get complements all the time!!!

Have you spruced up your front door? Please share with me!!

Our Mantel

Hello Ladies! I wanted to do a quick post today on my fireplace mantel and how I currently have it decorated! We moved into this house about 6 months ago and fell in love with the double sided fireplace! So, here is the first side

And here is the other side

I'm still deciding on this side whether I like it or not. So, if you have any ideas I would love to hear from you!! Anyway, just wanted to share!!
