GALLERY WALL ART

 Hello,
Today I finally got some things done ,and I wanted to share my gallery wall. I've showed this gallery wall on the blog a couple of times ,but I just wanted  to share a little bit about how I collected and decided on this for now.

 Most of the things up here were diys. Which makes it more special because I was able to display some family art. The bun print was purchased at Etsy. Elizabeth Mayville shop, its a great print and one of my favorites. Then we have the striped and polka dots coasters. My son did the colorful art one and I made the diamond shape on top.

 On this side I went with water and beach art. The big print was also purchased from Etsy. It was a really great deal actually. I got it for twenty dollars, and its a really great size.  The shop owner is Macy Carter photo. She has some other ocean shots available. the other two were thrift finds.

The mirrors were also thrift finds. I purchased them before I even had an idea of were they were going to go. I first started with the middle mirror and then decided on the rest of the art. I'm happy with what I have right now, but since most of them were diys I think ill eventually change it up in the future .

 

I had to share more flowers from my back yard this year I'm really being blessed with flowers. This beauties are a wonderful color.

 

So have you jumped in to the gallery wall bandwagon? Are you still stuck with what you want to display? I say go for it! one last thing on your décor list. Please comment I love to hear from you.

Bright D.I.Y Pillow Cover To Brighten Up My Space

 

 

 

 

Hello, today I wanted to share my  first attempt at doing a D.I.Y pillow cover . I don't know how to sew on a zipper, so I figured another way to try this without to much work. I am not good with the sowing machine. I can only do a straight line. Totally new to me, but I watched some videos on You Tube and that helped. I tried to show how I did this, but I'm really sorry about the blurry pictures. I did all the sewing at night when my kiddos were sleeping. I'll try to get better pictures in the future. so here are the instruction's for this simple pillow cover.

 

 

I took this fabric color that I already had and really wanted to use. It really brightened up my livingroom. The white pillow cover was purchased at ikea for 3 dollars.

I left about an inch to each side to fold in and sew. Then I gave them a good ironing. Then I just folded the sides in and started to sew.

 

 

 

 

 That's it not to hard, just a little bit of work holding the fabric down. This is my first time doing this, like I said. I think it turned out good. Not to bad, and the best thing of course is that I can take out the insert and wash the cover.

 

 

 

 

I also wanted to share a close up of my flowers that my husband planted for me. He knows I love flowers and he wanted me to enjoy them inside.

 

 I really like how much more color it brought into my space. I'm ready for summer. Are you ready for summer? what are you doing to your space? comment I love to hear from you.

Polka dots and Stripes

I found this little cute coasters at my local Marshalls in the clearance section on my last trip. There little coasters that I'm sure were left from the New Years decorations. I grabbed them up, and decided they would make a great d.i.y. I love the gold,polka dots and stripes on them.

As you can see theirs not much to it. Just taped them on to a white plain paper and put them inside the frame. Super cute and super simple. To my gallery wall it goes.

What do find yourself picking up in the clearance section? Happy weekend friends.Please comment.

Giving a Plain Basket Pazazz

 

 

 

Ok, so maybe it's just paint on a basket, but hey it took a little work. I found this basket at a garage sale close to my house. The guy wanted to two whole dollars and fifty cents for it, and I gave it to him before his wife came out and took it back. It was a deal! I actually had been looking for something big like this for some storage, and this baby is big. I wanted to give it some color and found this colors to do it. Ok, so here are the details.

 I got the colors at my local Home Depot. I used the sample sizes that you can buy for about three dollars. Really good deal since I still have a lot left for other projects. I went with True peach, Tropical coral, and Minty green.

I just used the frog tape to separate the colors and the mason twine for the handles. I was walking around the home depot and this color jumped out at me. such a bright color, so home it  came.

Just wrapped the twine around the handles super easy, and that's about it. Super simple to do, and my basket has pazazz now. Is that word even used anymore? I'm such a nerd. Nothing wrong with being one though.

I love cute little trays! If I could I would have all this in my entrance. They are so versatile they work for keys, or all that junk that you sometimes bring home from work. They sure would help  me not loose my keys so much. Do you have any use for them besides keys?

 

Me encantan estas bandejitas! Si pudiera las compraria todas para tenerlas en mi entrada. Son tan versatiles que trabajan para tus llaves oh para otras cosas en tus bolsillos. Estoy segura que me ayudarian a no perder mis llaves tanto. Dime tu las usas para algo mas que tus llaves?

 THRIFT STORE FINDS

Today I took a trip to my local Salvation Army thrift store. I wasn't looking for anything in particular, just wanted to look around. They had some good things that I thought had potential. All they needed was a little love and a little work.

Hoy me fui a mi tienda de Salvation Army local. No estaba buscando nada nadamas queria ir a ver. encontre unas cosas que creo tenian potensial. Tome unas fotos de unas cosas que me gustaron y creo que nadamas necesitaban un poco de amor y un poco de trabajo para transformarlas.


This little box to store away some jewelry. I love the color.
Esta cajita para poner tus alhajas. Me encanta el color.

kilim inspiration/ inspirasion kilim

kilim inspiration by angietruthsadobe featuring distressed home décor

I'm loving this kilim trend. I thought I would bring some into my home the cheap way. With a little d.i.y since I cant afford the $500 to $700 rugs out there. I thought about that extra pot I had left over from my past spray painting project. This is how it all began.

Me gusta mucho la tendencia de kilim que visto en pinterest. Estuve pensando en como traer algo de este tendencia a mi hogar sin tener que gastar $500 a $700 por una carpeta. Pense en la maseta que me sobro y esta es la transformasion.

I just drew it on with a pencil just to give me an  idea if I could even pull it off. Yes, it looks pretty bad I know.

Solamente lo dibuje con un lapis para darme una idea si podria hacerlo.

 I used some Martha stewart gold, red and other paints that I already had I bought from Walmart. The colors are pretty vibrant. I didn't go all the way around and I just colored one side I like it better this way.

Use unas pinturas que compre en Walmart y el dorado de Martha stewart tambien. los colores son muy brillantes. Nadamas lo  pinte en un lado me gusto mas asi.

This is the finished result. Its definitely caches your eye .

Y esto es el resultado final. Los colores son muy brillantes y toma mucha atension.

I added a plant to it and that's it.

Le puse una planta y lla.

VALENTINES HEART COOKIE

 

 

Hello, today I wanted to share the cookie cake that I like to make my husband on valentines. This year he'll get two. This is what you'll need.

Hola hoy queria compartir la galleta de chocolate que le ago a mi esposo para el dia de San Valentine este ano le are dos. Esto es lo que necesitas.

2) cookie dough          2)masa para galleta

3) frosting                   3)glaseado

4)heart pan                  4)charola de corazon

5) teal food coloring, red food coloring    5)colorante Azul verde, colorante rojo

I bought the food coloring at Micheals and the pan Ive had for about 9 years. its been with me for a long time I might just pass it on to my kids. ok maybe not.

Compre el colorante en Micheals y el Corazon lo tengo lla mas de 9 anos tiene mucho tiempo conmigo. Estoy pensando en heredarlo a uno de mis chiquitos. Ok mejor no.

 

 

Make sure you add the wax paper or it will get stuck to the pan. I just added the cookie in the pan followed the directions  on the package and put it in the oven. Then just added the teal frosting and the pink I added with a plastic baggy I had because I didn't have the proper one but it worked great for me. that's it pretty simple.

Asegurate que uses el papel de sera . Agrege la galleta como estaban indicadas en el paquete y lo puse en el horno. Luego agrege el color Azul verde y el rojo agrege con una bolsita del mercado porque no tenia la indicada pero trabajo muy bien. Super simple.
