This summer I ran into Goodwill hoping to find a little treasure. I spotted what appeared to be the two sides to a vanity. I immediately thought--nightstands! For $9.99 you cannot go wrong with solid wood. This is the only before picture I have. I snapped it in Goodwill to send to the hubs for his opinion. They cleaned up nicely! A good scrub, a rub down with some tinted furniture polish and some fresh hardware and we were in business. I adore the cute little wheeled furniture ...

Porch Makeover Details
Yesterday I shared how we made and hung our very cool number sign as part of our porch makeover. Today, I want to share the details of this project.

New room, big girl bed and she will be upstairs. All that is to be quickly followed by a new baby! Lots of changes for her and she is little miss independent so I am crossing my fingers ...
Front Entryway Makeover: Before & After
Our front entryway kind of goes against logic. We got rid of storage! Who does that? I mean, in theory, storage is nice, but sometimes storage just becomes a place to store more junk.

The mirror is actually glued onto a glass block window. Glued on pretty good too, so aside from completely replacing ...
