A Woman's Haven

Wine Bottle Vase

Happy Sunday!

How have you been?
I would be better, but it is snowing today in Michigan!
Dark, gloomy, windy & snowing!
Winter really does hold on until the last possible moment for us.

I am so ready for Spring!
I keep adding touches of it here and there throughout our home with flowers and new house plants. I do not have much of a green thumb, but I keep trying!

One way I added some Spring to our house is with this wine bottle vase.

I originally saw this simple craft at Shanty-2-Chic!

It was so fun and easy to make!

Just a few hardware pieces from your local home maintenance store

& a 18 inch board is all you need!

I also love that you really can use a variety of flower stems in it!

What Spring projects have you been working on?

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Monday!

It has been a busy few weeks!

My Let’s Create events have been in full swing over the last month.

In February we made monogram photo frames.

This month we crafted Spring Monogram Wreaths!

And we celebrated a birthday this last weekend by making wine bottle wind chimes…

It has been a fun couple months at our events!

Spring will continue to be busy for us!

If you live in Northern Michigan and would like to participate in a Let’s Create event, you can find more event information {HERE}.

Happy Wednesday!

I love to find vintage goods at thrift stores, flea markets, and yard sales. It is one of my most favorite past times! I am often on the look out for interesting items to fill my Etsy shop.

I accumulated these three painting at different times over the Summer & Fall. My intention was to add them to my shop, but I kept setting them aside holding off on posting them.

I was working on some photos last week for a shop update and again was having a hard time including them in my shop items. I decided I would put them together on the wall to see if I liked them.

I have to say that I love them together!
I love the colors and eclectic vintage mix.

They are keepers!

Scenes from my Weekend

Simple Fun With Crayons

Have I told you before how much I love finding a new use for old things? One of my favorite things to find from thrift stores, flea markets and yard sales are old wooden crates. Size or shape does not matter! I always find a use for a good old crate!

When putting our “all purpose” room together I wanted to display some of my eclectic collections. I thought that using a few of the various crates I had accumulated would be a fun way to do this.

My little helper wanted to smile for you all!
