DIY...ottoman

Hello, my name is Courtney and I am addicted to benches of all kinds.  Okay, I spotted this ottoman/bench on the Layla Grace website.  I love it.  $270....I think not!    This seems like a perfect DIY project as I have often spotted cute vintage crates/boxes at flea markets.    I think I have a new item to look for at September Brimfield! :)


I kind of have a bench addition- but they are so versatile! :)  Until next time....xoxo

D....Dreams!

Okay... Dreams really do come true.  Since I have lived in my house I dreamed of a cute shed off on the side of our house (not in the center of our yard).  I wanted a shed that was cute and functional and has windows for light.   I could go on and on.  I never dreamed that my dream would come true... thanks to my husband and father-in-law.  Over the course of two weeks, I watched a miraculous shed appear. This fall we had a fence company move the side perimeter of our fence... hoping we could put a small shed over there in our new "side yard".  While they were at it... we had them put in a gate to the sidewalk... accessibility is key. The husband has had some free time on his hands and finally got down to focusing on the shed.  They seriously built this in TWO weeks! Check it out!  This is the space we were "saving" for the shed! Progress was made quick... we have walls! A nice wide door, two windows... oh la la! Satisfied with his work... he has ...
