I Love My Green Planet

My daughter and her

husband bought a new house. They are just starting out, so they are still trying to get the house decorated. Below is their bed needing a headboard to finish the look.

I am currently doing a room makeover for

my daughters and i wanted some picture canvases for behind their beds. After looking everywhere i couldn’t find the size that i wanted for less than $90 so i decided i was going to make them myself.
I found my canvases at ROSS for $7.99 they came in a package of 2.

Depending on your floor,

repairs or replacement can be quite costly. We have found a way to cut costs and have a beautiful floor with little effort.
This will work on any type of floor. Make sure, whatever floor you are doing, is cleaned. If you have uneven spots on your floor try to make them even by sanding them down.

Today I am sharing all the details on the beadboard in the entry!

We still can’t get over what a difference it makes in our entry. It adds so much character and gives the front of our home a custom look. If you have been flirting with the idea for a while (like we had), I hope this helps you take the leap of faith to add beadboard to your home! Guys, we love it so much that we added beadboard to our guest bathroom the weekend after we did the entry (details coming soon!).
Let me start by saying this is really easy. I especially love this DIY because any skill level can do this, really! I also have to emphasize it is a really cost-effective to bring a dramatic transformation to any wall in your home! Especially if you buy the 4′ x 8′ sheets, and have Home Depot cut them for your space. It’s amazing how far one sheet can go! There are a lot of great options and tutorials for beadboarding with wainscoting as well. We used a 4′ x 8′ sheet of beadboard for this project, so I am going to strictly stick to how we did it with the sheet. There are many methods and they all come out fabulously! With that being said, pick your wall to beadboard, and let’s take a peek at how we tackled this beauty.

As I said in my previous post, this past week

has been full of home updates for my brother-in-law and his wife. While we were there, we redid the entire kitchen and one of the main things we tackled was their kitchen cabinets and countertop. Since they are on a budget, I came up with this simple and inexpensive treatment to update their countertops without having to replace them. By scraping away the old laminate and giving what was left a coat of paint and wax, they ended up with a faux stone finish counter. This project is great if you don’t want to break the bank and it is quick and simple, too!
