DIY Tutorial – Sunburst Posterboard Mirror
I wanted a sunburst style mirror to go above the four poster bed in our guest bedroom. I originally thought I would make one out of wood shims or paint sticks to bring in a wood element, but then I found this poster board mirror and thought it would be perfect. And cheap (this cost…
Disney Fantasy | Eastern Caribbean | Old San Juan
Ohai! Have we waited too long between Disney posts? Yeah, I agree. Sorry about that. We’ve been crazy busy lately and we also took a mini vaca for Labor Day up to D.C. to visit Kara’s bestie.

DIY Tutorial – Glossing over a new fad called Chalk Paint
I have been scouring the earth Knoxville for a serpentine style dresser I could call my own, meaning it couldn’t cost me a fortune.
