How to Strip, Repaint and Patina!

Ms. Centsational Girl is so fab. She makes the absolutely most beautiful things and then she shares her secrets with the common folk. Her are some great posts on how to strip something down, then build it back up to the beauty you see before you!

Furniture Repainting!!

I love to "reinvent" furniture with paint. I had to file this how-to away for my next project!

The Story Behind the File Box

I have always had a little book or file box full of ideas that I ripped out of magazines; ideas for room design, little tips and tricks, and craft ideas.

It was a great idea in theory. The problem was that over time, some of the pages would become lost, ripped or disorganized to the point where it really didn't do me any good at all.

The problem I had then is the same problem I have now. I keep running across the most clever tutorials, craft ideas, and decorating tips made by some very talented folks out there, but I haven't been able to find them when I needed it.

So, the File Box was born. This is my new, improved way to file away clever ideas and actually be able to find it when I need it!

Thanks for stopping by. I hope this helps inspire you, too!
