It’s no secret that I LOVE Reclaim Beyond Paint. As in I never use ANY other paint on furniture. Ever. Check out this quick 1 hour dresser redo I did with one coat of paint- no sanding no sealing. Also, scroll down to see the giveaway winner for the NWA Mall gift cards! This is […]
If you missed the first piano project post, click here to check out before pictures and inspiration. I found an amazing piano tuner who helped me take out every individual key and clean it out first. To remove the keys, sadly we had to remove the player piano and it wasn’t salvageable. I vacuumed up […]
About a month ago, I got a phone call from my father-in-law that went something like this: “Do you want a free piano?” “Does it work?” “I think so… It’s really old, but it’s free.” “YES! Actually I don’t even care if it works.” He had come across an amazing piano for free, and delivered […]
Months ago, our friend Drew took us to dinner to show us his proposal plan for his sweet girlfriend. This guy had a PowerPoint of Pinterest pictures he wanted to use for inspiration for his backyard home movie proposal. He had the ring, the yard, and the plan but wanted help with the setup. My hubby, […]
Have you had a chance to enter the Reclaim Beyond Paint Sealer giveaway? It will close Tuesday night at midnight and I want YOU to have a chance.

This post is sponsored by RECLAIM Beyond Paint, but all opinions shared are my own. You’ve been waiting for another RECLAIM paint project, right? My mom found this table for $2. My momma is the garage sale queen for furniture. She’s the one who found some of my favorite pieces! TWO DOLLARS at a […]
This was a custom piece I upcycled for a friend and I absolutely love the way it turned out. I used Maison Blanche chalk paint to redo this antique secretary desk. This unique piece came in two separate parts, so it was easy to take apart and paint. I knew immediately this piece had potential! […]

We were given this antique gun cabinet FOR FREE. Taylor’s uncle’s neighbor wanted to get rid of it. Seriously? Taylor was totally psyched I saw potential in a piece that would let him showcase his hunting guns…in our bedroom nonetheless! I loved everything about the character of the cabinet, but it needed some brightening up. Some […]
I really enjoy painting furniture designs that you wouldn’t usually see! I may have failed the gifted test by a long shot in the “out of the box thinking” category, but I can paint “out of the box” pretty darn well. Finding several solutions to the same math problem doesn’t mean a whole lot to me, but […]
Looking for a quick and easy back to school gift for a friend or colleague? I created these last night and gave them to my 2nd grade team, admin, and office staff today. I used my favorite: Arbonne’s FC5 Cooling Foot Creme. But you could use any kind of lotion (full size or mini) for this! A […]
