I am back with another look at the Dining Room Built in. You can see how I lined the back with Birch Bark Wrapping Paper here. Here it is all dressed for Spring, and full of fun DIY craft projects. When I lined the back of the shelves I hoped that they would give some great warmth and texture to the Dining room. I just love how they turned out, and got the warmth I hoped for. After using so many...

I had stenciled a cute little crate for my Easter table, that I love! But just to prove that I can't blog, I forgot to take photos of the before, the during, but I do have an after! One out of three ain't bad, right? ( I will be posting my Easter table later this week. ) Anyway, I love it so much that I wanted to stencil something else and saw this cute little flower box. I got this cute little...

I collected from my stash all of my Purple...

Hi There! Sorry, I have been gone so long. I have been busy. Work, life, etc. Enough said, we have all been there. So, today I am back with a quick look at the Odd built-in the Dining room. This odd little built in has 4" deep shelves, so not much will fit for decorating. But this is the little spot that I change up for the seasons, or when I am just bored. I do believe at one point, these...
