This post contains Amazon Affiliate links. This Christmas, one of my teen daughters surprised my husband and me with a portrait of us that she painted. I was amazed by her painting. Her painted canvas is a beautiful depiction of my husband and me on our wedding day. I love it! I immediately wanted to put the canvas up on a wall. I wanted to hang the canvas without nails. (In my experience, there never is a stud in the spot you want to put a picture. Plus, I'd rather not have to get out a hammer.) My husband and I don't have any large framed photos from our wedding day. We couldn't Continue reading...

Thanks to Cutting Edge Stencils for providing me with the stencil described in this post and used in my project. Four years ago I started stenciling a feature wall in my home's master bathroom.

Easy Patio Planter Posts for String Lights
Thanks to Thompson's for providing the Waterseal Waterproofing Stain used in this post. I've always wanted to add extra lighting to my home's patio. When we moved in, our patio only had the one light fixture by the back door, which did little to light up the patio. Last summer I put up simple patio planter string light posts that I secured with Sakrete (quick setting concrete) in planters and hung string lights from. Last week I decided to add a few more DIY patio planter posts and an extra length of string lights. I chose Edison-style outdoor string lights for my DIY string light Continue reading...
