I Love My Green Planet

Create beautiful garden gazing stones

from dollar store finds. Use glass marbles, Styrofoam balls, chop sticks and silicone to create lovely focal points for your garden.

Recently I purchased a few bags of marble glass vase fillers at the dollar store. I don’t really have a bunch of vases to put them in, so after making this Mable Glass Vase, I just knew I could come up with another use for the stones, and I got inspired by those penny covered balls that you can find on Pinterest. They are quite pretty, and I thought to myself that I could make a nice version of them for my garden.

I’ve been wanting to change up our front door

for a while now but with everything else on my “want to do” list, needless to say, it was towards the bottom. I finally had enough brain space to think about an easy and inexpensive solution, and I’m really loving how it came out.

BEFORE: Our front door needed some major TLC! We’ve been in our house for 4 and a half years and never did anything to our front stoop area, mainly because we use our side door since our driveway is located on the side of our house. However, we’re hoping to redo our driveway this spring/summer so that guests will use the front door which means it needed a facelift.

It isn’t often that I come across a

good trash-to-treasure furniture piece, but this one is a real keeper. The Hubs actually nabbed it from the trash bin during their last office remodel. It’s an old-fashioned 1980’s oak bookcase that hung on the wall.

Once you get hooked on collecting hosta,

they’re hard to resist! This Hometalk post looks at some of the latest and greatest varieties of hosta available this spring.

When we were looking to buy our house one of the

major things that we were looking for was an awesome master suite. And in that suite our master bathroom HAD to have a nice big tub. When we found our house I immediately fell in love with the corner tub and it was my favorite thing in the room. Well we decided to redo it and change out the tile and now I love the bathtub 10x more! I seriously cannot stop looking at it, it’s so pretty and I love the outcome!
