How To Paint Cabinets The Right Way

So, I’ve shared that we wanted to redo our kitchen on a budget since we’re not planning on being here for too long, and painting our 90s style oak cabinets was at the top of my list! I had never painted cabinets before, so I enlisted the advice of a friend who has painted cabinets many times. I wanted them to LAST and not look painted or get chipped easily. I’m happy to report that after nearly three months there is NOT ONE chip on any cabinet and I have not been careful – ha!

DIY Paint & Epoxy Marble Countertops

We recently moved into a new home that we aren’t planning on staying in for too long, but we still wanted to make it nice, so we DIYed our kitchen! You can see the full before and after below! We wanted to make a few inexpensive changes that would make a huge impact, but not break the bank. One of those changes was DIY paint & epoxy marble countertops!

DIY Propagation Station Wall for $20

You know when you have a project in your head for a long time but you can never quite figure out how you’re going to do it, so you just keep putting it off? Well, that’s what this project was for me. I’ve been trying to find a way to incorporate a propagation wall into our home for awhile now, but I never knew how to hang them on the wall. You CAN buy ones (here) that have a way to hang it, but they are a little pricey if you want a lot of them – like I did. I made 16 for $20, but if I were to buy that many it would have been $80, plus I like how these look better!

DIY Large Braided Yarn Boho Wall Hanging

I have had NO IDEA what to do with the BIG blank wall above our bed. I’ve had a million ideas, and didn’t love any of them – from a propagation wall to a mural. FINALLY I decided I wanted to make a big wall hanging! I love, love the texture that wall hangings bring to a space, plus they fill up a lot of room, you can customize the colors AND they’re inexpensive and fun to make!
