Porch Season
Porch season is just about to kick into full swing. If the kitchen is the heart of a home , the porch is the soul. So much take place on the porch. What makes a great porch? What's Your style?
Is it country, farmhouse, traditional. For me I love a country porch with a swing, potted and hanging plants, a table bench or chairs. having a place to sit and sip some ice tea and have long talks. Here's a few tip to add to create a warm and inviting porch.
1.Rocking Chair
2. Pillows
3. Panels for privacy
4. Area Rug
5. Table & Chairs
6. Plants
7. Lighting, candles or lamp

Chippy Lamp Makeover
This little ginger lamp had a humble beginning . I base painted black, added crackle medium , then added a top coat of antique cream latex paint with my Chalk-ology paint Powder. When it dried I distressed is more to reviled a more chippy look .
New Projects
I'm on a roll... working on a new project for the store and an on site job for a customer. The store project is one of my favorite pieces of furniture, a credenza. They take up a small foot print of area , storage is always available and they easy for anyone to move between rooms. Use them in an entry way, bathroom, bedroom or kitchen, its the ultimate non-defined furniture piece.
Anyway, back to the makeover. Using my Chalk-ology paint powder mixed with antique white cream flat paint as the base, two coats were applied. Sanding, distressing ,sealing with two coats for protection. I decide to darken the top with get stain, just to make th e cream colot po more.
Where would you use this beauty.
First Dresser Makeover of the New Year
It was good to get back to painting this week. This sad little brown dresser was crying for some color. So I did one of my favorite designs , grain-sack, I never get tried of it. Using my Chalkology Paint Powder and cream flat paint was the base coat . The dresser was taped off, and burgundy paint was applied to create the stripes. After it dried, light distressing and several top coats of sealer were applied . The hardware was cleaned and sprayed in Rubbed Oil Bronze finish.
So whata think, now it's waiting for a new home.

Easiest Diy Mercury Glass
Christmas is next week and I'm still doing crafts.
Mercury glass decorating is everywhere this year. I've look all over the internet and Pintrest for the easiest tutorial to achieve the look in just a few steps. I finally came up with the easiest tutorial. Gathering your supplies:
- Any clean clear glass
- Looking glass spray paint from Krylon. Although you can find other alternatives at Lowes too.
- Pure acetone, found at beauty supply store.
- Printed Newspaper
1. I made sure the glass was clean. Then I sprayed it according to the direction, two coats may be necessary. Let dry.
2. Once completely dried,I took some newspaper rolled into a ball, opened it . Take and lightly wet the paper with the acetone and then dab against the glass. Pounce it around in a a random pattern until you like the effect. That's it. Now enjoy.

Grubby Corn Cob
We finally had a cool fall weekend here. So I whipped up some scented crow corn cobs that have been
drying for a few months now. Dipped in scented wax and rolled in some spices,they smell oh so spicy.
The cinnamon painted crows where attached with some sweet Annie. They look so cut tucked into a
wooden bowl. Did you have any fall adventures this weekend?
