All Great Signs Point to ANTIQUES

by Cindy | May 31, 2020 | Dining Room, DIY Tutorials, Farmhouse Style, Kitchen, Signs

I love antiques… and signs….and antique signs. I just don’t love paying the prices, so I decided to build a sign myself, an ANTIQUES sign. This sign was so easy to make and very inexpensive and it only took a couple of hours (not counting the drying...

Kitchen Peninsula from Builder-Grade to Custom Made

by Cindy | Apr 7, 2020 | Dining Room, Farmhouse Style, French Country, Kitchen

One room/space/wall at a time, we’re putting our own stamp on this builder-grade home of ours. A high bar area in the kitchen is not my cup of tea, but it’s a little more than we can take on at this time so I decided to take this kitchen peninsula from...

I have had this cute sugar mold for over a year and have never really known what I wanted to do with it until now!   It happened accidentally when I dropped a tiny little terra-cotta pot into one of the holes and it fit perfectly!  That gave me an idea to turn my...

How To Easily Makeover a Chandelier from Boring to Beautiful

by Cindy | Feb 8, 2019 | French Country, Decor, Dining Room, Farmhouse Style

This outdated chandelier was actually in the formal dining room when we moved into this house.  I didn’t care for the chandelier in the casual (opposite of formal) dining room, because the globes and bulbs pointed down and I felt like it was too much light right...

Hi! I'm Cindy...

I love thrift stores, flea markets, yard sales and good junk! But I really don’t like spending a lot of money, which you probably figured out by where I like to shop.

Jimmy is excited to show you his new NanoBark coll Jimmy is excited to show you his new NanoBark collar given to him by @PetSafe This collar is half the size of other small-dog bark collars and very lightweight. I was skeptical at first but quickly realized that this collar is a great reminder to him that he can relax while watching delivery trucks, squirrels, cats, neighbor kids, and various other passers-by. The fact that it’s rechargeable, waterproof, and has 10 levels of correction with safety features to prevent false corrections gives me peace of mind knowing it’s safe for my small dogs. Thanks #PetSafe for bringing peace and quiet to our little home on wheels! … #joyunleashed #havaneselove #havanesedogs #cutedogsdaily #nomorebarking #dogmomsofinstagram #lhasaapsolovers #airstreamdogs #airstreamadventures #jimmyandgretaandgigi #havaneseoftheday #havanesemodel #homeonwheels
Elder Maxx Carroll is off on his mission to Mexico Elder Maxx Carroll is off on his mission to Mexico today! 🇲🇽 For me it’s so bittersweet, I’m proud of him for being such an awesome young man and choosing to go and serve, and my heart is somewhat sad because the boy leaves today and the man comes home in two years. It’s a new chapter and I will be praying for him and thinking of him every single day! I love you @maxxbcarroll !!! ❤️❤️❤️ … Hug those grandbabies my friends, they’ll be grown in the blink of an eye!
There are many opinions on how to remove popcorn f There are many opinions on how to remove popcorn from ceilings, but the one that was the most doable for me was the spray and scrape method. Spray with warm water, let it soak for a couple of minutes and then scrape it into a cookie sheet. Sounds easy enough but don’t be fooled, it’s a lot of work. I’m so glad it’s done because I love my smooth dark ceiling, but I’ll be honest; I never want to do it again! EVER! … #smallspaceliving #mycolorfulhome #downsizeliving #apartmenttherapy #colorofmylife #popcornceilingremoval #popcornceiling #benjaminmoore #greeninterior #greeninteriors #moodyvibes #darkinteriors #greenceiling

Do I miss my king size bed? Sure! Do I miss my big Do I miss my king size bed? Sure! Do I miss my big dog bathtub and my own washer and dryer? Oh you betcha! But the travel, experiences and memories are worth leaving home behind for a while! There are certainly a few more conveniences at home, but there’s no ocean, no green rolling hills, and no walks on the beach! We’re so grateful that we are able to travel and make new memories together. We have comfy beds to sleep in, laundry facilities in each place we stay, and the dogs get bathed almost as often as they do at home! We know we have HOME to go back to when when we’re ready, but in the meantime we will enjoy each new day in our home away from home. We’d love for you to follow along on our journey @hathaway.we.go I won’t be posting too much here as my focus is on traveling the coast while enjoying the journey! … #masterbedroomdecor #traveltrailer #airstream #airstreamadventures #havaneselove #havaneseoftheworld #havanesedaily #havanesemom #myheartandhomestyle #homeandgardenig
