My Windchime
The porch on the new house needed something. I couldn’t decide what. I wanted something unique and fun, but not noisy like metal chimes. Thanks to my boyfriend I think I now have the most unique idea out there. He suggested deer antlers. He had plenty of them, so we set to work.
First, he drilled holes in each antler. The antlers were strung on wire. Random bright coral and turquoise beads were added to the wires. The wires were then tied to a metal ring we found a the hardware store. The ring was then strung onto loops of wire to be hung. The finishing touch was to put a dot of Gorilla glue on each wire knot to keep them in place through the wind and weather. Here’s the finished product:
So what do you think? I’m personally in love. 🙂

Table and Chair Love
It has been forever and a day since a new post… I know! But the new house is keeping me busy!
Here is a table and chairs “set” that I love, mostly because it isn’t a set at all. I like how the chairs are different colors, yet look so good together!
Fun Chair Love
This is a gorgeous room and not to mention an amazing chair!
I’m sorry I forgot where the image came from, so if you know just let me know! But, isn’t this beautiful!?
Mom’s Dining Chairs
One of my many recent projects is refinishing my mom’s dining room chairs. And yes, I am finished with this one!
Mom has gorgeous antique wood dining chairs. But, the cushions were reupholstered many years ago, and are now raggedy and faded. So, we bought so printed leather and I set to work.
Here is one chair before:
And the after:
This was super quick and easy… and my first experience with powertools, my new staple gun! 🙂
Chair Love
These chairs are so interesting… not to mention the whole room being gorgeous!
The Wheels Are Spinning…
The wheels in my head are spinning, the ideas churning around. I said before that I have some big projects in the works, and when I said big I actually meant HUGE. Here is a bit of the funky inspiration that is going on right now. Soon I will hopefully be able to let you all know what is going on around here!
I love the shape of this sofa and the bold pattern is growing on me. Just wait until I can tell you why I am thinking about buying this baby!
Bright Chair Love
Wow, this bright baby is stunning!
Maybe I’m loving the pop of color because I’m craving SPRING…
Chair Love
No, I did not disappear again! Just so many changes are in the works, and I have been BUSY! I will have many many updates soon!
For now, here is the weekly chair love:
I’m a sucker for acrylic chairs. And vintage leather cushion. Love.
