DIY Halloween Chalkboard Art

As Halloween approaches next week, I thought my kitchen could use a little holiday spirit makeover. I found this awesome chalkboard frame at Kirklands last night that I just couldn't pass up. So of course I went to Pinterest for some Pinspiration. This was my first attempt at chalkboard art, definitely not as easy as it looks. That's the glory of chalk though, easy to clean up your mistakes. So here it is in all it's spooktacular glory!

*This is a recreation of a design I saw. For personal use only*

DIY Key Tags

DIY Key Tags

Here's a simple little DIY project that anyone can do!

 I always tend to find myself fumbling around with my keychain, trying to find the right key. I bought those little color coded plastic key tags to organize which key goes where, but to me, they just looked boring and made my keychain bulkier than it already was. 

So I decided to make my own color coded system. 

What you need

*Nail polish

*Keys

A little imagination, a glass of wine and some patience for drying time and you are done!

You can paint them anyway you want. I started with a plain base color then went over with sparkles just to make it pop. You can even use those nail polish paint pens to paint on different designs. Whatever you want, remember, YOU are the artist!

Here is my finished product......

Hope you guys like! Thanks for reading =)

DIY Bench out of an old coffee table

So over the weekend I went back to my favorite thrift store looking for a coffee table to replace the old one my dog decided to use as chew toy. I ended up finding one I liked not realizing that when I brought it home it was way to small for my giant oversized couches. I have been seeing a lot of posts on Pinterest lately of people upcycling old coffee tables into benches so I decided to give it a go! A quick trip to the fabric store later and I was ready to get started.

Here's what I used

~Old Coffee table:$10 at the thrift store
~Fabric:$15 (on sale WOOHOO!)
~Foam cushion and batting:$25
~Staple gun:Already own
~Black Paint:Had that from previous projects

So all it cost was $50 and now I have myself an awesome little DIY bench!

Bring on the WELCOME WAGON!!!

So grab some coffee, take a seat, and ENJOY!!!
