DIY Sunday Showcase & Features


What a week HUH!! Here in Nebraska we had a couple 60 degree days and then got dumped on TWICE with this snow sleet "sucks to drive in" mix! All I can say is it's a weird winter this year. Although the 60 degree days made me get a little pep in my step for projects!! It's almost time for the flea markets and yard sales!! Wahoo!!!! Project Partay!! Haha I know I'm a dork. 

Here's what I shared on MinettesMaze this week, a gift I whipped up for my Grams (aka Grandma)
Another rustic tin up-cycle and then adding some pallet boards to frame in the tin! 
Here are a couple other things I've done with that rustic tin..


And now on to OUR FEATURES DRUMROLL PLEASE!!

Gram's Kitchen Tin

I wanted to share with you the tin I had made for my grandma (aka Grams) for Christmas. I have made quite a few of these for people to give as gifts. If you want to see some of the other tins I have made
~Click below~

I wanted to make this one a little different to fit her decor better in her kitchen. So we added some pallet wood to frame the tin!

DIY Hunters Decor



Today I wanna show you what I made for my sons 16th Birthday last week! He's got a passion for hunting, or should I say anything outdoors.

I know he has been pondering some new bedroom decor ideas. And hunting was gonna be the theme. So I cruised Pinterest and put a few ideas together! And this is what I came up with!! 

Originally my idea was to use shotgun shells. But I didn't have much luck finding them. But some good friends gave me an entire tote fulls of shell casings! SCORE!! I'll make it work!

This project took about 5 hours and about 500 shell casings to complete. But the look on his face was priceless! He told me this was better than anything we could have ever bought him. 

I really was thinking that this is something he would keep forever. He could hang in his own garage or man cave someday.
