  1. Too old for the clubs… but somehow the garden center always has the best music. 😂 Tell me I’m not the only one… or is this just where we are now?? 🪴💚 Follow if you’d rather be plant shopping than the club 🌿 houseplants | plantlover | plantlife | indoorplants | plantcommunity #plantmemes #plants #plantsmakemehappy #plantpeople #houseplants

  2. Save this for your next easy plant DIY. 🌿 Because your plants deserve pretty drip trays. 🪴✨ Plastic trays work…but sometimes the little details make the biggest difference in a plant corner. Here’s exactly how I made pretty drip trays with dollar store plates: 1. Separate the plies of a decorative napkin and use the top printed layer. 2. Brush a thin coat of mod podge onto the back of a glass plate. 3. Gently lay the napkin down and smooth it out. 4. Add another thin layer of mod podge over top to seal. 5. Let it dry completely. 6. Trim the excess napkin around the edges. 7. Paint the bottom of the plate so the design shows through cleanly. 8. Finish the rim with a gold paint pen for a subtle detail. It’s such a small upgrade, but it makes the whole plant feel more styled and intentional. Follow along for more plant care and styling ideas.🪴💚✨ #houseplants #plantstyling #plantdecor #plantlover #diyplantdecor houseplants | plant styling ideas | diy drip tray | decorative plant saucer | mod podge diy | plant decor ideas | indoor plant styling | aesthetic plant decor | dollar store DIY | east plant DIY

  3. Fairies welcome 🧚🏻🪴 I almost threw this cracked terracotta pot away, but I’m so glad I didn’t. I added soil, moss, a few tiny plants, and the tiniest furniture and now it’s a little fairy garden. So next time a planter breaks-don’t toss it. Save this for the next time one of your pots cracks! 💚 The mini table, chairs, and lantern are from @etsy

  1. Did you know toilet paper actually makes the prettiest rose petals? 😍🌹 I’m obsessed. You can glue the petals together to make the rose hold better.

  2. Every girl needs a custom mermaid brush, right? 😍🐚 This is the perfect summer girls’ night craft. 👌🏼 My daughter is obsessed with this and now we are going to make one together! 👏🏼 Just a few tips: - This isn’t a hard craft at all, but is a little time consuming, so I girls craft night is a perfect setting to make these. 😁 - I used tweezers for the smaller pearls, it’s a lot easier that way! - E600 dries slower but actually is a stronger bond than hot glue once it is dry 🔗 Comment SHOP and I’ll send you a link to all the things I used for this diy seashell brush! 🐚 https://liketk.it/6hYs1

  3. Made my own version of the viral diy ghosts wreath! 👻 I used cheesecloth that’s more fine and has a slightly more natural color and I actually love how it looks! 😍🙌🏼 The only thing I would do different next time is space the foam balls a little wider apart, I think I have too many ghosts crammed together. 😆 🔗 If you want a link to everything I used to make this craft, just comment SHOP! https://liketk.it/6lBrM

  2. DON’T PANIC!!!😬🫣 Yes, I’m aware it’s not even technically summer yet… and I am very much excited to enjoy all that is the summer season! But fall is my favorite and it’s only 100 days away… so I had to! Don’t come at me!!! 😂🎃🍂 It’s so funny when people get upset about sharing seasonal decor early. Look, I love to live in the moment and embrace/enjoy every current season. But that doesn’t mean I don’t also enjoy looking at other season’s decor for inspiration at times. I don’t wish for fall to be here now, I just get the warm and fuzzies looking at it.🥰 Share with a fellow fall lover and spread the coziness!🧡 NOW BACK TO YOUR REGULAR SUMMER PROGRAMMING #falldecor #halloweendecor #halloweeninspo #fallaesthetic #halloweencountdown #fallcountdown

  1. I also identify as an internet girl 🫣 Colors are Friendly Yellow (light) and Overjoy by HGTV Sherwin Williams Cabinet & Furniture paint How to: Clean trash can then spray with a primer (doesn’t need to be a thick cover). Paint your base coat color and let dry at least 24 hrs. Apply your painters tape stripes. Paint one coat in the same color as your base over the painters tape and let dry (gives a crisp line). Paint your second color over everything. Remove your tape while paint is still tacky. Spray with a gloss top coat. #diy #easydiy #diydecor #craft

I painted the room while Jude was staying with my parents and I did not have time to change anything as it took two full days of prep & painting!!

  2. When I tell you the deals were DEALING! It wasn’t just Target stuff either, soo many different brands ! The furniture warehouse section is in the back of the store . It’s all brand new & so inexpensive due to liquidation which basically means the brand ordered way too many! The stores called Quicklotz there’s an Arlington and Hurst location !!

  3. How I created my moss wall ✨! So this is one of the easiest projects I’ve ever done. You’ll need the moss sheets from Michaels, a staple gun, staples (the longer the staple the better) , the lights from ikea (if you do the most like me) and a screw for the lights. All you’ll do is staple the sheets to the wall! Once up add a screw and cut a slit in the moss sheet- directly underneath the screw (this is where you will pull the cord through to hide). That’s it! Took me maybe 20 min max to do! What do you guys think? . . . . . . . . #diyhomedecor #diyprojects #grasswall #backdrop #greenery #plantsofinstagram #mosswall #diy #homedecor #decoration #livingroomideas #livingroomdecor

  1. I spent way too long trying to find a vintage newspaper holder for a DIY project, checking secondhand shops and online, and then a local newspaper company ended up giving me one because they didn’t know what to do with theirs! So I turned it into a Little Free Library for our old front yard 📚 This outdoor DIY project started with a full refresh using outdoor-rated spray paint, then I replaced the plexiglass with a sheet from the hardware store and used my Cricut to create custom vinyl signage. I chose colors that complemented the brick on our old house so it felt cohesive with the exterior. 🤎 Now I want to make one for our new home! What else would you turn an old newspaper box into? And ask me anything about the process! #freelittlelibrary #asmrvids #diylibrary #upcycleproject #booklovers

  1. Turning this antique, red-dyed, caked-on finish into a total beauty 😮‍💨✨ There’s nothing better than watching years of thick finish melt away and reveal the wood hiding underneath. If you love satisfying transformations, furniture makeovers, or restoring old pieces back to life… this one’s for you. 🤌🔥 Have questions about this makeover? . . . #FurnitureMakeover #FurnitureFlip #DIYFurniture #UpcycledFurniture #RefinishedFurniture #FurnitureRestoration #VintageFurniture #BeforeAndAfter #DIYProjects #ThriftFlip #ChalkPaint #Upcycle #FurnitureDesign #WoodRestoration #FurnitureArtist

  2. What’s under this red paint… 👀 Refinishing wood can be tricky, but these 5 steps are my go to for bringing the grain back to life! Here’s exactly how I finished it (save this 👇): 1: I slightly thinned my oil based stain with mineral spirits so it penetrated more evenly into the wood instead of sitting on top. Especially on maple, this helps prevent blotchiness and lets the grain come through instead of looking muddy. It also gives you more working time so you can wipe and blend without harsh lines. I didn’t use a pre-stain conditioner on this piece because on harder woods like maple, I’ve found it can actually interfere more than it helps. Instead of soaking in evenly, it can sit on the surface and reduce how rich the stain looks. Thinning the oil stain gives me more control over penetration and color build-up, so I can sneak up on the tone instead of forcing a uniform base. 2: I like using oil based stain over water based because it gives a richer, deeper tone and enhances the natural warmth of the wood. Water based can look a bit flat on pieces like this, while oil brings out that depth and movement in the grain. 3: After stain, I use a shellac grain sealer. This step locks in the color, evens out absorption, and creates a smooth base so your topcoat goes on more evenly. It also helps prevent that patchy look you can sometimes get in porous areas. 4: For my topcoat, I go with a satin oil based finish. Satin is my go to because it gives a soft, natural sheen. Not too shiny, not too flat. It lets the wood be the focus without looking plastic or overly glossy. 5: And the step most people skip, wet sanding between coats. This is what takes a piece from good to really refined. I use a fine grit sandpaper with water and lightly sand between coats to knock down any texture or dust nibs. It leaves you with that super smooth, almost silky finish 🤌🏼 Drop the word ✨LIST✨ for full product links messaged to you!

  3. How to Fix Antique Furniture Without Chemical Stripper & Hours of Sanding I actually tried to barter for this vintage Drexel dresser first, but they turned me down. A little while later, the exact same piece from the exact same person popped up on Facebook Marketplace for *free*… so of course I had to go get it. 😂 This dresser had incredible bones, but it definitely wasn’t an easy save. Years in a humid room had swollen the wood and caused the drawers to shift, so getting everything working again took a little bit of time. The part I hope encourages you is this: you don’t always need a full refinish, a ton of supplies, or years of experience to save a piece of furniture. Sometimes the best thing you can do is work with what’s already there and bring the original beauty back.

Do you see it as timeless and beautiful, or does it feel dated? I’d love to hear your thoughts because it really helps me decide where to take future makeovers. . . . #FurnitureFlip #FurnitureMakeover #FurnitureRestoration #VintageFurniture #DIYFurniture Drexel dresser, Drexel furniture, vintage furniture, vintage dresser, furniture makeover, furniture flip, furniture restoration, wood restoration, furniture refinishing, antique furniture
