  • This is a wooded area on my property that my grandkids call the Fairy Woods. One of the old Oak Trees has a large hole near the base of the tree. I had an idea...Fairy House in the tree.
  • I found this Fairy Door at a flee market. I needed to find a piece of wood to mount the door on to fit in the hole in the tree.
  • I traced the shape of the hole in the tree on a large piece of paper.

    Pinterest is a great place to find things like that. I saw those ladybugs, too and pinned them.

  • We went from the 80s to 2013 with a few boxes of  peel and stick tiles.
  • We used a simple cleaning solution to prep our old floor before laying the new tiles.
  • We used a staggered look to lay the new tiles.  Very time consuming, but worth it.

  • I cut this sparkling water bottle in half. Thicker bottles will take a little more effort but this was fairly easy.
  • Burn baby burn! Just make sure to spin the bottle and get plenty of fire to heat the bottle.
  • Pouring out some nail polish remover so the yarn could be dunked in.

  • I decided I needed to cover that lime green first.  I had a can of Valspar satin black spray paint on hand and knew that would do the job nicely.
  • It took several coats but the green was gone!  I do believe I saw a sparkle in my stead's eye!  Okay, agreed,  maybe it was the fumes.
  • Oh Wow!!  He looks so much better already doesn't he?

Fixing up old lamps found at thrift stores or garage sales is a great way to get a cute fresh look for a fraction of the price of buying new!
