Welcome Home Ikea

A little while ago I was contacted by Ikea with a terrific opportunity to spend $100 on holiday decor.  As much as I am known for refurbishing older furniture I have to admit, Ikea is a weakness for me.  I can spend a day browsing down the arrowed aisles gathering ideas and new items for the house.

So let’s be honest shall we?  Did I stick to my $100 budget?… nahhhh.  Too many little seasonal items struck my fancy.

Start with this gorgeous lit red star STRÅLA.  This beautiful paper star lights up a dark corner of my room perfectly.  And at the end of the season, I can just fold it up and store it flat.

  

Sock Snowman & Santa

With so much to do in so little time I was looking for a simple craft to whip up this holiday season.

This craft is incredibly easy and really fun to do.  And with a very short list of supplies, you can round up what you need in a jiff.

I guess I should say, Sock Snowpeople. Cause our little Snowman has found himself a girl.

Coffee Table Challenge

If you’ve never visited Wayfair.com do it now! Well…read on and THEN RUSH OVER.  When they say, ‘ a zillion things home’  they aren’t kidding.

I was thrilled to be contacted by Wayfair to participate in the DIY Blogger Challenge.  The challenge had us take one of their products and transform it any way we wanted. We also received a gift card from Giftcards.com to cover the cost of supplies.

This is the coffee table we chose out of 3 different items.
