Lighting. Simple Spring Framed Vases. I don’t know about you but I am loving everything that is blooming right now!
One of my favorite things to decorate with is fresh flowers. I think it brightens up a room so much! A couple weeks ago at Michael’s I found some tiny little glass vases for .99. I thought they would be fun to set around with some smaller blooms in them. I couldn’t find just the right spot to display them though. Until now! It seemed perfect for my little vase display and I love it! Isn’t it bright and cheery? And not only were there 2 big bunches – but they were still in the paper, because Mr. So let’s get started. You’ll need frames, vases (one or two per frame), and twine. If you have frames that you are happy with – you can skip this step. I have a stash of ucky old oak frames – some of them were happy to donate themselves for a makeover. :) Start by painting your frames in the colors you’d like. Make sure your frames are covered well – and that you paint the inside section where the glass goes as well.

Diy toilet paper art. HOUSE*TWEAKING. ...because home doesn't happen overnight.
Last night {the operative word being *night*…that’s why the lighting in some of the following pictures isn’t the greatest} Handy Hubby was kind enough to hang the DIY ‘love’ headboard. Yep. It’s only taken us 6 weeks to finally get it on the wall. Handy Hubby used these flush mount hangers from ACE Hardware to mount the headboard. {They’re the same ones he used to hang our boys’ drop cloth headboards.} Black Labels, Bright Lights: 5 DIY Wine Bottle Lamp Projects. Admire the label art, open the bottle, drink the wine, put a stopper in, then consume the rest later … and then what?
While a true collector might still keep the empty glass around, most of us then dispose of the leftover container and move on. Here are some illuminating reasons to think twice before recycling them right away. (Instructions for the above DIY outdoor wine bottle wooden-wall torch at Design Sponge).
