Dollar Store Halloween Porch Decor
While I absolutely love Halloween, I’m not typically a big decorator for the holiday. I’m not really sure why – it is what it is. But this year is different because my kids (ages 6 and 8) insisted that we “go all out” and make our house the spookiest on the block. They wanted to […]

Chalk Painted Drop Leaf Table Makeover

Free Vintage Patriotic Printables {Perfect for the Fourth of July}

Two things I love love love are Rifle Paper Co. and furniture makeovers. If you’re not familiar with Rifle Paper Co, check out their website.
