I would have to be honest and say starting PBJstories blog has been the true take off of my DIY projects. I've always loved decorating and designing my new homes, but between buying our first home and spreading the fun of decorating on my new blog the DIY projects have really been rolling in.
Originally I was ready to try anything and everything. A peak back at even my last two months of projects I have done everything from painting, sewing, thrift store makeovers, creating something out of nothing, projects with the hot glue gun {the most damaging for my health fingers}, and my latest obsession: creating anything from wood.
Because I can't cover my whole house in wood, I have taken my love of working with it to making signs of various types...
Wanted to showcase some of the projects I haven't shown before that are up around my house:
{By the way! This is the first reveal I've done of my entryway, still a work in progress because I'm not totally in love with the mirror, and need some more decor for the bottom shelf, but what do you think!?}
Our entryway table also is a landing spot for some super cute decorating I've done that cost me zero dollars! My big jar which I added some twine and vinyl saying "spare change" to help collect any extra pennies we may have coming into the house, and a big hurricane I filled with seashells and sand.

I'm loving the endless possibilities with wood and decorating!
I have 4 big projects in the process right now with more wood and can't wait to reveal them!

I wanted to link up this post with one of my favorite bloggers who is in the middle of doing a great series working with wood and different finishes. If you're not already familiar with Stephanie@Home check her out now and you can learn about some great finishes she is trying out with scrap wood.
Okay I'm seriously obsessed and in love with the love one!! You need to do a tutorial! Your lines are so clean!!
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great in your entr but if you're having second thoughts about the mirror please feel free to send it to me because I absolutely love it!
ReplyDeleteBut back on topic I love all of your signs! The one with the yellow heart is my favorite. Love how it just pops off of the wood!
And thanks so much for linking to my Scrap Test Dummies series! I really appreciate it :)

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, these are awesome! And the yellow heart is my favorite too! Any tips on how to make? Just a few pieces of wood, with stain? How did you get such perfect lines on the heart? Please share!!! :)
