http://itsashabbything.blogspot.com/2012/07/out-with-old-in-with-older.html
Sunday, July 1, 2012. Out with the old, in with the OLDER! The charms of a rental house. . . When we found a rental house that worked for us I had 2 stipulations. I needed to get the brown paint that was on the walls and ceilings painted over, and I HAD to replace the brass light fixtures with my own lights. So the brass lights are now in the attic and I had to find a great light for the foyer, without spending too much. I call her crystal and she is a great focal point to the entry of our home!

It's a Shabby Thing: October 2010
http://itsashabbything.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 10, 2010. I Ah"door" this project! I got my room almost done and I have the perfect spot for some bookshelves. But honestly I do not have $350 for some nice shelves, so with one of my great doors from my salvage excursion. And some salvaged wood from old furniture I have had the inspiration to make some bookshelves out of it! Yes, a big project, but with proper planning I think I can pull this off for next to nothing. It will take resourcefulness, time, and a good plan. So here we go!

http://itsashabbything.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 25, 2009. We had ourselves another fun little craft night for Fall Crafts. So I wanted to share all the great ideas with you all! Diannah made this great witches boot. I love it.

http://itsashabbything.blogspot.com/2008/11/great-spring-things.html
Sunday, February 21, 2010. And here in the desert spring comes a little sooner than for the rest of the country. I take full advantage of that and can't wait to get my spring decor out! Awhile back I found this cute wall hanging at Scrapbook Destination's Blog. My friend Diannah duplicated the idea and made this cute and similar hanging. She just cut out her own cone with some 1/2" MDF and used her Cricut for the lettering. You can go to Scrapbook Destination's Blog by clicking here. I painted the flower...

http://itsashabbything.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 14, 2009. Ode to Hobby Lobby! Yes I am aware that I appear to be a little too excited in this picture, but I REALLY love Hobby Lobby! And I got a great deal on these drawer knobs! I love Hobby Lobby! It is a little bit sentimental because they gave me my first job when I was 15 and thus released a beast of creativity! So I hope you find some inspiration as well. Here is a fun little inspiration that they have on their website for fall! To see their great fall ideas. View my complete profile.

Found this scale while antiquing! It was perfect just the way it is! This piece of tin was from an old building in Denver. I got it while at a Salvage Yard there. It appears to have been in a fire.
