Button picture frame

Pulled out all the extra buttons I've saved over the years and decided to do something with the white, beige and gold tone ones.  Had an ugly picture frame available and glue gun and went to work.



The flower buttons came off my daughter's baby clothes. (Picture turned out terrible sorry)



Love the final results.
Now what to do with all the black and brown buttons?

Linking up to the Inspired Ideas Party

$25 Headboard

While upgrading my daughter's bed from twin to full size, we found we needed a headboard on the cheap.  We didn't want to give up any square footage since her room is on the small side so I searched and searched for some ideas.

Came up with this - after seeing a similar version on HGTV


It's a curtain rod with three square seat cushions handing from it.
Not the best picture - she didn't make her bed.


Curtain rod  = $ 10
Pillow 3 @ $ 5 each = $ 15
TOTAL = $25




I'm joining Show and Tell Friday , Flea Market Trixie and Frugalicious Friday!

Testing out my new signature

Woo Hoo the simple things that make a new blogger happy. 

Today I learned how to add my signature to my blog - baby steps but getting there.

Bleeding Heart


Hard to believe that something so beautiful has such an ugly name.  Bleeding Heart is it's actual name and so perfect for Valentine's Day.

Hope this Valentine's Day your heart bleeds with LOVE,

Love is in the air ....

Valentine's Day is coming and I am getting in the mood.  Here are some lovies I love to display.  They were cards that I, over the years gave to my daughter for Valentine's Day.


Do you see the imprint on this card: A Gift of Love !!!



What's a Valentine's Day without Cupid ?



Spread the LOVE...,
