Creatively Made Home e-class


I have been working on some projects. This is my latest. I may distress it or patina it. 

I am taking an online e-class. Creatively Made Home I did get a "button" that I could put on my sidebar but I don't know how. This class is phenomenal!!! I was lucky enough to win it in a give away from Post Road Vintage  but it is worth every bit of the $58 for the class. It is taught by five fun designers, (hosted by Jeanne Oliver)

There are so many things I want to do with my home but have just been feeling overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. This class has given me direction, helped me find "my style" and has inspired me to get started. This bench was one of my first little projects. It had the heart stencils from the 80's. It still has the heart cut out of the sides but I can't fix that. I also painted my bathroom vanity. I need to pick flooring, hopefully soon. I also painted one of the empty bedrooms to make into a sitting room. 

You can still join this class. It is five weeks of videos, information, tips, projects, ideas......You watch them at your leisure and they will be up until April. If you need to get inspired, check it out!

Day #17 Hat

This might be kind of weird but I find it kind of comforting. This is my father-in-law's hat and scarf. When he passed away almost 26 years ago, we got this desk he had made. In the drawer was his hat and scarf. There they still are today.

Day #16 broom

As far as I'm concerned, there is only one broom. That is the Stanley Slim Line. If you need a resource, contact Avis S. She can get you one.

Day #15 Black and White

I don't know if my camera has a black and white feature. I so enjoy reading the black and white from any number of books!

Day #14 In the Kitchen

I found this jar at The Salvation Army last week. Molly went out in the yard and found the Mums and greenery to put in them. I think it is pretty although it almost looks Christmasy.

Day #11 Something You Do Every Day

I make my bed every day. I like to crawl into a fresh made bed at night.
