I wanted to do a quick post today on one of my favorite design sites!

Design Sponge

I love this site because of it shows some of my favorite things like DIY projects and before and after photos. I love seeing the transformations made to furniture and anything in between. I believe this was one of the first design sites I started looking at a few years ago when I was starting to get into Interior Design again. Here are a few links to some of my favorite posts

Blog Friday- The Designer's Attic

First off, I just want to say Thank you to Roeshel At The DIY show off for posting about my giveaway! I can't believe in the response I received. I've been sick the last couple of days and this really made my day!

So today's blog feature will be a short one.

#1. The Designer's Attic

I love this blog because I'm a big fan of fabric!!! I could spend hours just looking at different fabrics. (I had to do that in many of my classes)

These are just some of the fabric I loved from this site. I would love to one day buy some of her fabric!

I love this color and pattern with this chair. 

I would love to find a chair like this to upholster

I love this pattern because it reminds me of the fabric I used for a previous ottoman

If you haven't checked out this site you really should. And you can always come back and tell me about your awesome find!!! :)

Have a wonderful day and a glorious New Year!

Blog Feature- All Things Thrifty

Good Morning!

First off, I just want to wish you all a Merry Christmas! I hope next year will also be filled with many exciting adventures and blessings!

Now on to today's blog feature. Today I decided to do All Things Thrifty Here are my reasons why.
I discovered this site about a year and a half ago from a friend. I was taken back by how thrifty she was with her designs. She was actually the reason why I decided to go into furniture upholstery after I finished school because she made it look so easy to do. I've learned a lot along the way and so that reason, I'm grateful for the opportunity to have found this site and how it has changed my life.
Here are some of my favorite post of hers.


#1 Glazing 101

I love learning new tricks on how to make furniture look different. It's one of my favorite techniques!

#2 Reupholstery 101



#3 Tufted ottoman 

After I saw this post I wanted to find something like this one. After searching high and low I decided to build a oversize ottoman, which I will be showing on Monday!

Anyway, this is the reason why I love this site and I'm grateful that I found it. Thanks Brooke for inspiring me!

First Blog Feature Friday!!!

I'm so excited to do this!!! There are so many blogs out there that inspire me daily and so here are my first two blogs.

#1 The Bird's Papaya

I found Sarah's blog a few weeks back through another blog I was reading and feel in love! Here are the reasons why I love this blog.

I love her creative style, her many ways to save on a tight budget,and her wonderful cooking ideas, Such as this one here.

Doesn't this look tasty!!!!

One of my favorite decor ideas from her is this one right here.

I'm all about simple but beautiful projects!
Visit her blog if you haven't and show her some love!


#2 ReUse ReInvent ReDesign

I love this blog because she is a start up blog like mine, she reuses items and turns them into a fantastic piece. There are so many pieces to choose from but he is one I thought was genius!

I think the best part of this item is the wheels!!! :)

Feel free to stop by her blog and become a follower! She is hoping to reach 100 followers by the end of the year!
