  • Before shot of our kitchen. It is on the small side and was very dark. 1
  • We tore out our existing backsplash and created a custom hood above the cooktop. I opted to use Annie Sloan Chalk Paint to help me achieve the french country feel I was looking for. Working on finishing up the rest of the cabinet doors 4
  • Old Ochre paint and new knobs. 3
  • I use a moist sanding block to sand with. It keeps the dust at bay and makes a buttery smooth finish.
  • Dark wax applied to help age the cabinets.
  • It is a long process to achieve this look but to us well worth it. 1
  • I stil am working on finishing up the remainder of the cabinets but am just thrilled with how far our kitchen has come from where we first started. 1

Using Coffee to Age Paint

When looking for a solution to subtly age harsh white paint, I decided to brew up a strong cup of coffee to brush over it. I let it sit for about 20 minutes, then wiped off any large ...»
puddles. It was the perfect way to give a slight darker tint in places. Plus it's non-toxic and rather aromatic!

  • I chose graphics that were simple, colorful and featured a black cat in each one!
  • I added little tags with seasonal greetings attached with jute twine.
  • Here's a look at sleeves from previous holidays! There are links to the graphics for them on my blog post.

Easy-to-make vintage-look Halloween candles made with Dollar Tree candle holders...fun and inexpensive!

Reuse the candles each season...just change the sleeves! Full Halloween tutorial on my blog post with links to graphics for Christmas, Valentines and Saint Patrick's Day sleeves as well!

  • First, prepare "butterfly food" by mixing nine parts water with one part sugar. Depending on the size of your jar, you'll use either a tablespoon or a teaspoon. 16
  • Let the mixture boil until the sugar is dissolved, and then let it fully cool before putting it in the feeder.
  • Using your nail and hammer, punch a small hole in the lid of the jar. You're going to be cutting your sponge and you want your sponge to fit tightly through the hole, so keep it small. You can always make it bigger as necessary. 10
  • Cut your sponge into strings about one inch wide, and then pull it through the hole so there is about a half-inch of sponge sticking out from the top of the lid.
  • Remember, you want the sponge to stick tightly even when it's wet, so you might need to make it larger than you think. 1
