Side Table in Duck Egg

I've been painting like CRAZY!!


2018 is going to be the year where I pay off a lot of bills and get a handle on my finances.  Being a vendor at the Co-Op is my ticket to getting that done!


Today I'm going to be sharing this little side table that has been sitting in my garage for at least 6 months.  I was finally inspired to give it a little makeover.

Friday Favorites ~ Photobooth Backdrop

My baby girl is 17 today!!!

I'm not sure when this....

Turned into this!

It's as if I blinked and now she's making College plans.  :(

In honor of her birthday I thought I'd share some beautiful Photo booth backdrops.

I'm loving this romantic setting.  Perfect for a wedding, baby shower or elegant birthday party.

I'm loving an easy backdrop!  All you need is some fabric and ornaments.  Perfect for a holiday party.

Couldn't find the source for this picture.  I just love how simple it is.  Not to mention budget friendly.

I'm in love with this one!  Gorgeous!!

Um, Yes please!!!

How fun is that???

I currently have 3 doors in my garage!  I just need that chandelier, some flowers and we're in business!

Love it!

I'm a sucker for reclaimed wood.  Pretty much had me at hello!

Swoon!

Gotta throw a pallet backdrop in there.  This can be made for just about any occasion.  Love the versatility of it.

Simply stunning my darling!

This post received a lot of attention!  I was even emailed by a vendor who asked to advertise on my blog because of this post.  As you can see on my blog I don't do the whole "advertising thing."  That's how most blogs generate income but I'm not ready to go down that road.  This blog is my hobby...

for now!  Anyway this was a fun post to create!
