We are so excited about our first official giveaway on the blog!  Jonathan and I have been planning this all year, and now it's finally here.  There will be lots more posts about signs that we'll be making, house projects, and a few other goodies so don't forget about us!

Last Chance to Sign Up for our Sign Making 101 Class!

Ashley Longnecker / April 04, 2013

Yes, there were a lot of "signs" in that title. Because I love signs! I love designing them, painting them, sanding them and staining them. And I think you will, too. This Saturday, April 6th I'm doing a Sign Making 101 class at my house. It will last from 10am - 12pm here in Knoxville, TN. We've already got a design (see below) and all materials are included in the price. This is your last chance if you've got some free time this Saturday! Signup today.

Pottery Barn, Who??

Ok, I so do not shop at Pottery Barn - like ever - but when I came across this PB mirror knock off I knew I had to make it. Why spend $700 when you can make it yourself? It's project time!

Three Dollar Trees later, I came home with 44 mirrors ($1 each)!  Thank you Dollar Tree :)
