I did a bathroom makeover! And it makes me so happy. This bathroom has been frustrating for me, since it’s very small and has almost no storage. It serves as our master bathroom, so no storage has been a serious issue. Before I made it over, I had these ugly bathroom wire storage towers and…

DIY Storage Shelves

Storage Room Organization
My storage situation was a disaster. I can’t stand disorganized storage because it makes life SO much harder than it needs to be. Don’t you hate having to remove five to ten other boxes of stuff before finding what you need? Or risk everything falling on you in the process? I always end up hurting…

I wanted something French country and curvy, and when I stumbled upon two dressers on KSL (Utah’s Craigslist) for $150, I was super excited. We went out and bought…
The Difference Between Orbital and Palm Sanders
My table…oh my table. It looks beautiful now, but just listen to the story. So remember my post a little while ago about how I decided to refinish my dining room table again? Well I stained it. And it didn’t work. I cannot even express to you how annoying this was. I felt like my…

Replace a Glass Table Top with Wood Planks
Here’s the story of a side table that wanted to be a planter but in the end discovered his true calling in life was as a side table. So I bought this little side table from a thrift store one day. It had an ugly glass top. No offense if you have glass topped tables,…
