DIY Projects for my Home

It's been a while, I know. I've been working on lots of DIY projects.
Painted this adorable shelf. I know it looks the same color as the wall, but it's not. My Dad is always giving me cool old things he has in his garage. He gave me the lock and doorknobs They were from his Dad's old house (they moved from in 1975), The thing in the center was on my Dad's basement door around 1962. I love the idea of these things being used at my Dad's and Grandfather's house.

Decided to put these printer's drawers on top of my cabinet and add some old jars and cola bottles on the bottom picture.

 Got this awesome shelf at Joann's for $8.00 on clearance and added some chicks and some older items.

 Updated this little tool box and added my smaller bottles. They are so cute.

 My husband has 3 old rakes and I liked this one the best. Love me some rust.

Christmas Open House

These are a few of the things I've made to sell at an upcoming event this Saturday, November 16th.  I'm so excited about it and hope it goes well. The event is an Open House at Old Stone Rabbit in Spring Hill, TN. She has also consigned by bags.  She furnished the seed and flour bags and I made the bags.  If you are in the area please come by.

I love jars

I found this amazing jar in my woods. Yes my woods.  I found many before, but this is the most amazing.  There are several old trash piles that were covered probably 40 years ago.  Over the years the rain has washed up many bottles and jars.  This jar was Sealtest orange juice.  After I washed it many times it was still foggy and dirty. So..........

I added food coloring and mod podge to create this lovely yellow. I do love pinterest and found the idea here.

 Then I spray painted these Ball jars and roughed them a little.  I love them all.

Another Bag added

Added another bag. This one is a little more colorful. Perfect for Easter or Spring time. I used the burlap and more vintage quilt pieces.  Also used vintage lace and buttons.

New Purse added to my shop

This weekend I made this burlap purse for my etsy shop.  I visited a friend at Sugar Ride Creations and found some awesome burlap and vintage quilt pieces.  She still has lots of it. She has an etsy shop and also sells from her business located in Spring Hill, TN. Go by and visit when your in the area.
