Pallet Wall Room Transformation

We started with a plain slate, tiny little bedroom and transformed it it with a major statement wall made from completely free pallets. We used a combination of white and grey paint to ...»
white wash each plank to cool down the warm wood tones. Adding industrial lighting and some fun DIYed accessories brought the whole room together!

  • calling in our dear friends mother to help with the sewing. she hand sewed the entire piece after it took me a few hours to choose the right feel for the fabric.  I love DIY projects, but sewing would require me to sit still!
  • So much Rot!  We chose Elmers wood rot stabilizer and a decent wood conditioner. Of course replacing the base boards with 3 boards from a 200 yr old barn we helped tear down

My husband and I just finished our son's wall quotes.

I bought the decals from a vendor on Ebay, but did not want to put them directly on the wall, so we painted MDF boards white (several coats) then my son helped me "distress" them with ...»
sandpaper, brown acrylic paint and gauze. We love how it came out!

Lighted kitchen window teacup and saucers curio cabinet

We were living in a house with an outdated/ugly, and pointless kitchen window that led to our family room. That's right, our family room, and not the outside of the house. I decided to ...»
get creative with it, and come up with a LIGHTED KITCHEN WINDOW TEACUP AND SAUCERS CURIO CABINET with sliding glass doors (as in the doctors' offices) to put my small teacup and saucers collection. I don't know if it has been done prior to my doing it, but when I did it, I had never heard, or seen it before.

Our mirror mosaic fence. We had a blast creating this. Amazing what can come from a broken mirror mishap.

More Bluebonnets. A LOT more.

This pictures was sent to me by Bernice (for some reason it wasn't uploading on her computer.) It is the most wondrous sight I have ever seen. Many thanks to Bernice's friend Tamara in TX for sharing this picture!

  • Knotty pine doors are fine for a cabin but after a while the knots can get on your nerves. 6
  • Green and white is the main theme now. 18
  • What to do when you can't afford a new counter top? Especially if you like stone? 4
  • simply! I used stone looking wall paper and 5 coats of latex Polyethurethan and this counter top still looks like new a year later. 13
  • Problem area behind the stove. We all know how hard it is to clean the wall behind the stove.
  • I solved this problem by installing a metal looking vinyl back splash and it cleans like a charm. 8
  • To paint over knotty pine is only possible if you use "Kills' to prevent the knots from bleeding through. I didn't want the board look either. Refacing doors costs a lot of money. I did it myself by using "hard board that I glued over the surface of the bottom doors and then painted. I also took all the black hinges and handles off and coated them with silver rustoleum 3
  • I didn't bother to do the same treatment with the top cabinets. I simply removed them and have open shelves. Now I don't have to open and shut the cabinet doors putting dishes away. Work wonderfully for me. 5
  • The wood work is now painted white and I made a small pantry out of what was once a broom closet and catch area.
  • My new kitchen pantry. 2
  • The ugliest. old floor you can imagine. By the way, I married my husband who lived in this house for 26 years just 3 years ago. It was time to change this floor 5
  • To add a little interest I put the new floor tiles in diagonally. 7
  • Instead of painting the walls I used wall paper illusions with a faux traventine marble look. To make this washable, it received a coating of artist glaze. Now I can wash the kitchen walls at without damaging the wall paper. 4
  • An old glass table with chairs received a new look. I didn't want to buy spray paint to cover up this dark green metal furniture and breath in the fumes. The old paint had peeled in places and it's white primer coat was showing.
  • A simple solution was to sponge over the old paint using a lighter green and covering the seats of the chairs with new washable, indoor outdoor fabric.
  • And here it is, all done 5

Remodeling a dark, dingy kitchen on a low budget

Our kitchen is facing north and has one small window, hence there was not much light. The knotty pine look was getting on my nerves and so did the ugly, red Formica counter top, including ...»
a 70th look linoleum brick floor all worn and the wood work being a very dark brown didn't help to make this kitchen into a cheery place to work in. I love light! Especially during Colorado's long winter month. I remodeled this entire kitchen from top to bottom for less than $900.00
