I love using things for a purpose that it wasn’t originally intended for.

Today on the blog I shared some fun ways to mix it up and be creative with things you already own or can find at a flea market.

Don’t use a vase. Use a basket instead.

Don’t use regular drinking glasses use mason jars instead.

Think outside of the box.

It’s fun and creative and usually a lot less expensive.

I am kind of a rule breaker.

I don't usually worry about obeying what I call "old rules".

So yes, I use my sterling silver every day and I put it in the dishwasher. Huh?

One of my favorite things to do is use what I call "repurposed vintage decor items".

When I shop vintage flea markets, antique stores, or my attic, I always keep an eye out for items that can be used for something other than their intended purpose.

Today on my blog I shared lots of ways to use things as vases for flowers. But none of them are actually vases!

Grab a cup and come join me for Sunday Morning Coffee!

I made a new summer flower pillow this week.

On the blog today I shared how to make a pillow cover with paint and free motion stitch embroidery.

The process to make one of these pillows is not difficult.

You just need to paint the pillow with shapes of your design and then add the detail with free motion embroidery stitching.

Also, did I mention this pillow cover cost about $5 to make?

Head to my blog for the complete DIY.

I made these floating lanterns and you can too!

All it took was some plastic plates and parchment paper.

And a bit of glue.

They were a lot easier to make than they look.

Just so you know, I also shared a link to some really cool floating lanterns you can buy.

Haha.

Whenever I throw a dinner party I usually have a vision.

When I created this outdoor dining room I knew I wanted to do something to highlight the pool.

I just wasn't sure what I should do.

And then I figured out how to make floating lanterns.

I think the most popular item I made for this dinner party was the floating lanterns and today I am excited to share with you how I made them.

They came out great and are very easy to make.

It's still July so I think it’s ok to post Christmas in July.

Since so many of you loved my post from last week titled Ten of My Favorite Christmas Projects I decided to create another one.

This time I am sharing Christmas crafts that have more of a vintage feel.

After writing both of these posts, I am really excited to start making my new Christmas crafts ideas.

I hope to get started in a few weeks.

Are there any particular types of crafts you would like to see this holiday season? Christmas wreaths? Christmas ornaments? Christmas wrapping ideas?

Please let me know!

Then head to my blog to see these wonderful vintage themed crafts you can start making now.
