The Ugliest Lamp

I love finding good deals on old items and turning them into something beautiful. So when I came across this ugly lamp for $2.00, I had a vision! 

I used printed duck fabric from Hobby Lobby for the shade and hot glued in on. 

Then I painted the base grey.

I'm so pleased with the turn out! 

The Start of Something New

A new blog. A new year. A new outlook.

Now that Christmas has come and gone it's time to think New Year's resolutions. We all make a list every year and some never happen. I've already been thinking about my list and some resolution solutions. One think I would like to do is be more positive and grateful with a new outlook. While searching the almighty pinterest website I came across a gratitude book and thought how perfect! I even got a jump start by already purchasing my notebook. I'm going to get a little crafty and use scrapbook paper on each page just to add personality and color. I thought it would be a great way to remember that even on our bad days, there is always something to be grateful for. So here's the start! I can't wait to starting writing blessings in here!

Please share any resolutions and solutions you may have! 

Make this new year what you want it to be, and do it with love
