While perusing the wares at Goodwill one day, I spotted a marble tray that caught my eye. It looked relatively modern and new, but piqued my interest nonetheless. Upon further inspection, however, I realized that it sported a long crack/gouge that ran across the top. Right away, I knew it was the ideal piece for me to attempt a Kintsugi type of repair.

Years ago, I made a winter door wreath by upcycling a plain Christmas wreath. It got lost or donated somewhere between then and now and I was feeling the urge to create a new one. It would, of course, be wintery, but have a somewhat different look.

Thankfully, there are a lot of January decorating ideas and projects you can make to celebrate the quiet winter season. Here are some upcycling and DIY ideas to turn your home into a cozy winter sanctuary to enjoy until Spring starts to bloom.Read more ›
As much as I love the idea of going to a spa, I rarely do it. Maybe it’s because I cringe at the cost or because I’m not a fan of wearing a robe in public. Either way, I’m more inclined to create a spa-like atmosphere at home. This means that DIY self-care ideas like these are right up my alley.Read more ›
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a big fan of scarves. Wearing them…trying new knots…and even upcycling them into projects. From winter scarves to silky/flowy versions, I’ve amassed quite a personal collection. And every time I step into the thrift store, I see loads of them for sale- including bandanas and handkerchiefs. So, if you’ve got a few that you no longer wear but want to use them in alternative ways, then this collection of inspiring ideas is exactly what you need.Read more ›
Years and years ago, I made a set of icicle ornaments with some vintage glass beads that I’d gotten on Etsy. But for whatever reason, I never posted the tutorial here on my website! So, I got them out of storage with the rest of my Christmas decor this year…took some fresh photos…and am FINALLY adding the project to my blog today.Read more ›
