Since this was my most "liked" piece of 2020- I figured I'd start the new year off with a post on how I finished up this beauty! This piece caught my eye because of the metal hardware on the wood which I thought was a super cool and unique feature.

I love a good Mid Century piece! Take a look at how I finished this dresser using Wise Owl One Hour Enamel in Jet Black. It is a classy furniture makeover!
I'm longing for simplicity... and wondering how can I make things easier on myself. Unloading and dispersing a large tote of Fall items throughout my house is not going on the "to do list" this year! I saw this Kraft paper style pumpkin from a few years ago sitting in the tote, and it spoke to me (this pumpkin is originally from Hobby Lobby).

At the end of every year when I’m cleaning up Christmas decor, I love to make gift tags out of the cards I received over the last month!!! They are always so sparkly and cute, perfect for next year’s gift bags!!!
Every year for my mom's December birthday we do some kind of Christmas-y craft. A couple years ago we made these adorable poinsettia gift toppers. They are easy to make, and really add a pop to your gifts under the tree.
