little bit of wood, some elbow grease, some stencil and voila. read all about it.

will be popping this week and the single and double-flowering Kerria shrubs provide a bright splash of yellow amid all the new green spring growth. A whole day ahead of me to spend in the garden, my idea of nirvana.

absolutely blow your creative little minds? It's actually something so easy and simple that you're gonna slap yourself right upside the head saying "Why didn't I think of that before?" Start out by envisioning your bathroom. Now does something seem like it's missing or doesn't complement your existing decor? Cutting Edge Stencils wants you to consider using our stencils to create your own shower curtain! We can show you how it works to ease you into the idea! Challenge accepted? Cool!

minutes or so, and then buff (wipe in a circular motion). Repeat if the wood is really dry.

For this piece I also applied a coat of Miss Mustard Seed Furniture Wax as added protection.

The coconut oil brought out the natural color of the wood, re-hydrated the wood, and took away that old musty barn smell. Oh yeah and it's also a great hand moisturizer. It's a win-win!

I am so happy with the results and the best part is it totally non-toxic (people eat coconut oil) so the kids helped me with this project.

#Bestof2012

Here are three that we have done recently.

The first is a reclaimed top that was on its way to the dump. We refinished it and added it to an antique dresser base to make an island in our kitchen.

The second option is high gloss Laminate... by using a squared off edge instead of the rounded edge we were able to get an appearance more like granite. The example I am showing is also from our kitchen.

Option three is porcelain floor tile.

I recently redid my parents kitchen and used 12"x24" floor tiles for countertop. The surface must be prepped properly and be level. It turned out beautifully. Using large tiles minimizes grout lines. I used a grout very close to the tile colour. We only needed 16 tiles for the whole project.
