Kitchen Cabinet Hardware Under .70! Kitchen cabinet hardware can be very costly. And it's the reason that we never added these to our kitchen when we were building our current home. We had already added lots of upgrades, but when it came to adding kitchen cabinet hardware, we were already over budget. One day while I was shopping at the thrift store, I came across a huge bin of shiny gold knobs. They were not my style at all, then it hit me. Why not update these knobs and make it my style with a little paint! So I did! These knobs were super cheap. With the purchase of my paints, I was able to add kitchen cabinet hardware for $20.00. Which comes out to around .67 each! I have 35 cabinets, if I had purchased brand new hardware I would have paid over $100 easily!   (This ... View Post

Decorating Ideas For Your Home Under $50 I've shared many decorating ideas over the years. Most of my home decor has come from resale shops, cause that's how I roll. Although I do find good deals at discount stores like HomeGoods, and Marshalls. I've gotten many comments from readers over the past few years saying that they wish they had a thrift shop near there home so they can find the deals I've gotten. So I thought it would be fun to share some cheap home decor that's under $50 dollars.   (This post contains affiliate links, please see disclosure policy) Decorating idea tip #1 I've shared this tip before, but I'll share it again.

Glam Farmhouse Kitchen Glam farmhouse style is my new thing. No, it's not a term that I've heard of. But it describes where my style is evolving too. It's a mix of  modern, glam and farmhouse style. A few years ago farmhouse style was in my home, and then it morphed into Shabby farmhouse style. And now I'm changing once again because I've purged most of my personal collection. So why did I purge everything? Ha...it's all good. I'm pretty happy to have gotten rid of things that were taking over my house. And guess what? I'm not planning on bringing lots of new things into my home as far as decor. Instead I've decided to only bring in farmhouse decor style that will add value to my home. I bet you're shocked that I'm not searching through thrift stores to find cool treasures. Well, ... View Post

How To Paint A Grain Sack Stripe Several years ago I shared how I painted a grain sack stripe on a table I was working on. And silly me, I didn't share the tutorial.

Create The Perfect Coffee Bar Up until a few years ago, I had no idea what a coffee bar or coffee station was. I had my coffee mugs stored in my kitchen cabinet. My coffee was kept in the bag in came in, and I stored it in my cabinet. And my coffee maker was one of those with a  glass carafe  coffee machines.   ( This post contains affiliate links, see disclosure policy) After breaking several of those glass carafes..... don't ask. I decided that maybe it was time for a change. So I purchased a new coffee machine that would brew a pot of coffee, but didn't use a carafe. Sounds perfect right? And every coffee bar needs a good coffee machine, am I right? My new carafe free coffee maker didn't last long. It stopped making hot coffee and I needed to brew a full pot of ... View Post
